would not be inclined to the longest and most

Within 30 years no important portion of the

NORTHERN RAILRoAD.-We have the au-
thority to announce the fact, that more than
5000, coo ofIhe Capital Stock of the Northern
Rail Road Corporation has been subscribed
for in the State Of New Hampshire, and in
the City of Lowell.
About week since, this Road was duly es-
tablished, by the constituted authorities OF
New Hampshire.
This Road commences at Concord, n. H.,
and terminates at the mouth Of White River,
in the town af Lebanon and here it inter-
sects with the Vermont Centre Rail Road,
which passes through Montpelier, and ends at
Burlington, VT.
The alacrity with which the stock of this
Road has been taken by that portion of the
public, who are well acquainted with the
business capacities of the route. furnishes con-
elusive evidence, tina; the sagacious CAPT
talist need not hesitate 10 embark in this en-
terprise.
4 gentleman, connected with tins Corpo-
ration, is now at the American House, in this
City-and is prepared 10 furnish and infor-
nation, that may be material for the public
to know, in relation to this Corporation.
Subscription Books, for its stock, will be
found at the Lowell Depots also at the Ex-
press Office Of Messrs. Walker & Co., No.
Court Street.
A subscription, TO the amount of 100000,
Of this stock, is asked for in this City.
Will Boston refuses this sum?

ARE.NOMNATION.

II is pretty evident from The nominations
II hcl President Polk has made, aud other ma
MOWERS, that he is a squirting towards
denomination. The dazzling splendor of
Executive pow er and its attendant glory, II IS
feared will prove too much for his good rcso-
hutton which he made in his letter Of accept
ance To the Daltini Jre Convention. lie Tiews
Objects in rather different light Just at this
fine, FROM what he was went 10 view them
when he enjoyed the Presidency ouly in pros
peciuS. The One Term Principle, of which
Henry CLAY is the author, ne knew 10 be
very popular, and quite As firmly seated in the
hearts Of the people as il it were already a
part of The Constitution lie was aware of
the very feeble prospect nfthe success of his
party. He was surprised also that the nom
iaa,un shonli have been conferred upon one
who stood so low in the estimation even of
his own party as himseil-aud hence he de-
clincd ever being re-nomnated, should his
party be so successful as to elect him.
= | this appeared very well in him so long
as his actions favored the belief that he WIS
sincere; but he now finds while sitting in the
Z zccuiive chair, that TO scrye another term
would at least be rery desirable. This is too
sf,enihe case with those who in lie beginning
would make us believe with their ''much fair
speech" that they are such disinieresled pat
riots.
Bat should alr. Polk succeed (Which is
not probable) by his mana cement in obtaining
nomination, tits matter Of doubt wheth-
or one half of those who voted for him at his
election, could ever be rallied again in his
Support, and matter ofccrlainiy that he could
never be reelected.
He may. and probably will, spend tho whole
o. his administration in scheninS Tor second
term, and retire with the contempt of the
people without having effected one good thing

THE TARIFF-HOW IT WORKS.

The Tariff OF 1912, seems to have more
than realized the anticipations Of its most san
glne lricnls. The distress and disaster of

been changed to prosperity and successful

shady side OF the street, appears, and must

;aat the sInit Of fierce hatred to Tariff is

THE BAKER FAMILY.

Ifthe people Of MiddIebury have not heard

consists of four brothers and a sister, natives
of New Hampshire. They have visited va
rious sections Of the country, and have been
receiving the highest praise for their mus'-
cal entertainments. From the programme
which we have read we should judge that their
concerts. which are mostly vocal, will be
made up of The choicest selections of music

the expense of the planter can only be
transltory.
The cause ofthe diminution in the rate
at which Cotton is sold, is the surplus pro
duction over the demand.
If the cultivation continues TO increase,
the price must fall still lower until the plan
tiers eventually become bankrupts.
The remedy can be found only in an hon
est and determined concert on the part OF
the planters to diminish the cultivation until
the crop of cotton shall be reduced to the
standard of consumption-thus insuring
ready market and steady price of at least 9
cents.
In growing less Cotton. the planter could
improve its quality. ard with the additional
soil and force left at his disposal he could
