BosToN AND OGDEYsBURGH RAILROAD
A committee ofsiX gentlemen, appointed at
public meeting lately holden in the town of
Rutland, are now engaged in survey of the
pass at Mount Holly, to ascertain precisely the
advantages il affords for the construction Of
Railroad across the Green Mountains at that
place. IL has long been a favorite plan with
the Bostonans to have direct communication
by Railroads by Lake Champan, and the ST.
Lawrence, through the heart OF Vermont, and
gigantic as the undertaking may be deemed
the time seems not far distant when it is 10 be
realized. The construction of Railroad from
Boston to Ftchburg, Mass, a distance of
about As miles, we believe is to be commenced
early in the spring, and its rapid completion
and immediate extension from thence TO Brat
tleborough, in this State, may be confidently
relied upon. From this point it will be con-
iinued sooner or later, as the people of the
State shall interest themselves in the matter,
upon one of the following three routes: First,
up the valley Of the Connecticut and across by
Montpelier. Second, following up the course
of the West River, and striking the head wa
tiers of Otter Creek, thence down its valley
Third, up the Connecticut to Black River, a
long Black River and through the Mount Holly
gap TO Rutland and down the valley of Otter
Creek to Vergennes, terminating in either case
at Burlington. No surveys have yet been
made to test the comparative advantages OF
the proposed routes, but many familiar from
observation with the geography of the State
express the confident opinion that one of the
latter Two will be found far preferable to the
former. There are certainly good reasons why
the most westerly course should be favored by
the Bostonians, and which their sagacity will
not be slow to perceive. One is, that their
city already draws to itself the trade Of a great
portion of the eastern section of the State,
tains seeks a market in Troy and New-York.
1t is therefore obviously for the interest of Bos-
ton to have the road so located as to secure to
itself as much as possible the trade Of the Lake
counties, region of country superior to any
other in the State in respect to fertility Of soil
and the richness of its mineral deposits.

MURDER AT HARPERswEII.-A letter
from Brunswick, dated February 9th, TO the
editor of the Portland Advertiser, says -
A seaiaring man by the name of Thorn,
visited Harperswell several years since, and
became acquainted with Miss Alexander,
and IA mutual attachment was formed be-
tween them After few months, he went
to sea, and did not return again until this
winter-when, on his arrival he found
Miss Alexander was married to Mr.. Elisha
Wilson, of Great Island. Since his return,
he has made his home at Wilson's house,
and the neighbors have been little sus-
picious that too great degree of famii-
arity existed between Thorn and Mrs. Will
son.
Mr. Wilson occupied one part of the
house, and his brother, Benjamin Wilson
occupied the other part. Yesterday NOR
ming, the latter was called at about three
O'Clock, by his brothers. wife saying that
Elisha was dead. He fastened into the
other part Of the house, and to his great
astonishment there lay his brother on the
, bed quite dead, but not cold neghbors
were called in, and j; was thought advisable
to have an examination here. A post NOR
TEN examination disclosed that he came
to his death by blow inflicted upon the
side of the head, just above the ear. The
skull was broken in space about two inch
cs by one inch Upon an application, il
was found that the bow of pair of heavy
kitchen tongs, found about the house
would just ill the wound. An inquest was
held upon the body, and verdict returned
of death by blow from some person un
known" Thorn and Mrs Wilson hav,
been arrested, and stand committed for trial
Upon examination, their stories were quite
contradictory.

Extraordinary Case. We we're informed
of case of insanity in this county, few
DAYS ago, the circumstances connected with
which are so extraordinary as to be well worth
recording. 1t seems there has been in the
Ispwich Aims House, or House of Correc-
ton, for about twenty gears, an insane man
who was sent there from Salem, and who
has always gone by the name of Captain"
OF his real name and residence nothing
was ever known by the authorities, nor has
any thing been discovered until within
few months past, The man is perfectly
harmless, his maady tending rather to idi-
ocy, and he has long been allowed to 60
about freely sometimes wandering into the
neighboring towns, but always returning in
safety. A few months ago, the keeper pre-
scented a card to him, and said, Captain
will you give me your address % The
Captain very readily took the card, and
writing upon it, in an elegant hand, a gem
teman's name, with the name of town in
the State of New York, returned it. As it
was somewhat uncertain if this was really
his name, few days afterwards another
card was handed to him with request that
he would give his fathers address. He
Immediately wrote the same surname and
town, with another christian name. 1t was
then supposed that he might have given his
real address, and, to ascertain the fact, a
letter was accordingly forwarded to the
person whose name was given as the father,
~th request to the postmaster, a such a
person had ever resided there and had re-
moved, to forward the letter to the present
place Of residence Of the gentleman or his
family, IF it could be ascertained. Nothing
further was heard until few weeks ago,
when letter was received from New York
on the subject. The letter was shown to
the Captain" and as soon as his eyes fell
upon the superscripton, his countenance
changed, his eyes we're suffused with tears
of Joy, and he cried out in the most touch.
