THE VETo PowER.--lt is universally understood
that the Van Buren, party are adverse TO any re-
stiiction Of the veto power. Indeed, many of their
papers openly oppose such measure; and there
fore il is to the Wings that the people are to look
for aid in establishing the supremacy Of their will
over Executive dctation. This is one Of the prin-
ciples laid down by Mr. Clay in his letter TO the
Young Wings Of New York city, and the party ev-
cry where, admonished by bitter experience, have
approved the sentiment, and inscribed il upon their
banner as one Of the most important 10 be conien-
ded for.
We said the locofocos were opposed to any re-
straint upon this monstrous anomaly in a republic
can government. They so, and herein they
stand exactly where the old federal party did-as
advocates Of strong executive, absorbing many Of
the just rights Of the people. Ye, they claim to be
the lineal descendants Of the republican party, and
the supporters of true Jefersonianisn, although
they counter to the test doctrine of democracy
in former days. They cannot say this is only the
natural progress Of liberal principles, for il is pro-
crossing backwards and therefore il must be Sc,
down another evidence of locoioco contempt for
the popular WILL and Of the reluctance of its lead
ers TO part with convenient weapon whereby they
may stife tina. will, when il does not please them.

"March, march, Calhoun and Johnson men,

NEW YORK AND ERIE RAIL ROAD
MEETING IN NEW YORK.

The New Workers are just beginning to awake
TO the Importance Of rail roads. The New York
aud Erie road, mammoth enterprise to connect
the city with Lake Erie by continuous rail road Of
$50 miles, which has been some time trying %
struggle into life under dscouraging circumstances,
seems To be gaining favor A large and enthusiasts
tic meeting was held at the Tabernacle on the eve
ming of the 18th inst, TO adopt measures for It's
immediate completion. Very interesting speeches
were made, showing the great benefits Of ru roads
both 10 city and country We take the following
interesting statement from the speech Of NJ. c.
Patterson, Esq, showing the great value of rail
roads as stock;
"Another way in which an estimate could
be made as 20 the value Of the work, as
means Of profit, would be to refer to the
rail roads Of other states and countries
England, said he, has Of rail roads 1862
miles, of which 1859 are in operation.-
Costing G5S obs, $780, Now valued se72,-
1895 good and bad together, of all the
roads in England only forming S7S miles
are above par The Grand Junction road
costing G2, 900, 900, was no 4 worth G5.-
Ill 900, the Great Western costing e.,
GOO, 900, was now worth 10000, 600, and
the London and Birmingham costing &C.
600 900, was in 1913 valued at GI3, 999, 5SS
There was truly an enormous increase val
ne, aud this too where the roads were own
ed by numerous companies, each with diff
ferent interests. They had no long roads
as we have in the one in contemplation that
good dividends were declared, and there
could be given no good reason why the
pronered investment should not be alike pro-
6table, as the roads of England, which have
so much to contend against.
The rail roads of Massachusetts, too,
could be quoted as a most profitable invest
ment, although laboring. most Of them, I'M
der the disadvantages of being short routes.
Massachusetts with an area of S,6S6, 900
acres of land, has invested in said roads
$50, 900, 900, of which sum Boston owns
S2l ,63l ,0S0, which had yielded revenue
the past year of 81 $50, 000"
With these great enterprises extending in every
direction around, carrying benefits to all within
their influence, viii Vermont still continue in in
glorious empoverishng sloth'
