him word, that if he didn't shut up his mouth about
bishops, she would wrap him up in a rag and make
a hustle of him. This is what we call catching

cheaper than on the Central route. Indeed
says Mr. Gilbert before the Convention, in
these respects from Rutland to Middlebury
more favorable route cannot be found in the
Northern States: when the Mount Holly
gap is again examined we may expect a
reduction OF the grades down 10 fifty or fifty
five feet. From the Connecticut to the foot

made up Black river which shows nothing
but very low gradesandthe smallest compar-

passes through n section of country richer in
agricultural produce, richer in hourishing
villages, manufacturing establishments and
mineral wealth than any other section in
New England. and in all respects combined
four times better Tor Railroad than the
Central route Should both roads be con-
s,ructed the stock of the Rutland road would

WOOL AND THE RAILROAD.

Who does no, see that the glory Of our
focks is gradually departing. Domestic
competition alone will be constantly reducing
the value Of our heeces. But at the reduced
prices wooden manufactures will continue 10
operate. Cotton manufactures are now
springing up at The East in battalions, and
numerous other manufactures are multiply
ing. BY the means Of 4 railroad let us con-
sole ourselves for the losses on wool. Let US
place Addison County within thirty miles of
Boston, and with the advantages Of our fer
til soil compete with the Union in Butter,
Cheese, Beef, Pork, Veal, Mutton, Potatoes,
Apples, Hay and the thousand & one articles
which at this distance cannot be trans
ported at all, or al loss. Again by rail-
road let US raise up as we may fourishing
manufacturing villages on our own borders,
and erect a market at our doors. Cotton
and Wool may be spun as cheap at Middle
bury and Vergennes as at Lowell.

THE EX-COLLECTOR.

Aliho' Gov. Van Ness is reported to have
resigned the Office Of collcctorship of New
York he was to all intents and purposes re-
moved, whereupon his brother Genl Van
Ness writes letter TO Polk threatening a no.
litical earthquake il affairs are not better
managed at the white house. Still we dc
not understand why Cornelius P. was re-
moved. Surely filter instrument of this
proscrlptive administration could not be
found than this same ex-colector. Read
the following:
We learn that Mr.. Van Ness is making
most of his time-every day bringing forth

oil the former Of the most purely indicative
and proscriptive character; and some Of the
latter Of character which would be Disgrace
iul TO any other administration of the Gus
tom House than that which has OF the late
prevailed there. For example, one of our
most sound, thorough and popular Demo
Gratis, Mr.. Wier, was removed a few days ago,
without the slightest pretext of official deln-
quency-being in fact one of the most atten-
tive and faithful officers in the establish

ALLIS NOT GOLD THAT GLITTERS

GulIible people seldom learn much by ex-
perience. A pedler always calculates that
the man he has once cheated is the best
subject fer future experiments. He has al
ways some new story, and things better and
cheaper than home dealers, or patent which
beats every thing which has before come 10
the knowledge ofthe world. A paper down
country mentions umbrella pedlers with an
article no better than sive. A few weeks
since, woman called at our house directly
from England, offering for sale an article cap
iial for polishing brass. We escaped sha-
wing for once, but we understand several of
our neighbors pa,ronized the lady very lib-
orally. She polished their brass fre-ssts, land
door knobs to glttering brilliancy bot the
next day theywere dulIer than ever. A gen.
tlemen in Weybridge has just informed US
that in his absence from home his wife got
cheated out Of a gold breast pin worth five
dollars in exchange for worthless piece of
glass for substitute. Let these itenerant
dealers alone ifyou know what is good for
yourselves!

GROWTH OF Bosroy.-The Boston Mer-
camille Journal is chronicling the growth OF
Boston, which has grown, since 1890, from
Is, 800 to 1908 in 1910, or probably lilo, 600
in I545 The increase from 1890 TO 1910.
was 1903 or 409,73 per cent. TWAS over
five times that Of the other parts Of the Com
mon wealth. Ia 1890 the population of Bos-
ton was less than a20;h part Of that of the whole
stale in 1910, more than an Sth part. This
increase shows the tendency TO a centralize OF
the population in i oston during the fifty years.
In regard TO the business of the city, the Mer-
camille remarks:
Among the means calculated 10 sustain this
activity and enterprise Of its citizens. !uone are
more obvious than the means of communica-
ton, especially by railroads, which radiate
from Boston as centre, Northeasterly to
Portland, the principle commercial place in
Maine; Nor,herly TO Concord, the capital of
New Hampshire, Westerly to Albany, the
capital of New York; and Southwesterly
through Connecticut; Soulhernly to Provi-
deDce, the capital Of Rhode Island and South
wesiernly TO Plymouth, where the first Pill
grims landed. Branches communicating with
these main trunks are constructed for more
local purposes, so that the whole territory is
overspread with sort Of net work, whose iron
roads approach within few miles Of every
considerable town in the common wealth.
These roads have been constructed al a cost
Of some twenty millions Of dollars. mostly at
the expense of individuals who will not will
lingly suffer these works 10 fail of fulfilling
their destiny of conveying men and merchan
die from and to the city of Boston. The
stimulus felt will hardly be less wherever these
lines approach to facilitate communication.
These works centre in Boston; they origi-
mated in Boston; the capital for building these
was mostly furnished in Boston; they are
chiefly managed in Boston. and by centeriug
in Boston, they make this city the general
depot Of the commerce OF the whole State.

FROM TEXAS.

The steamship New York arrived at New
Orleans on the 18th inst, from Galveston,
which place she left on the 18th, bringing
news from that place ten days later than ,he
last previous advices. The principal event
ofwhich we are thus informed. is the issuing
of a Proclamation by President Jones. in
which he announces the conclusion of treaty
with the government of Mexico. subject TO
the ratification of the Congress, and conven-
ton of the people, by which the independence
of Texas is acknowledged, and proclaimng
in the mean time cessation Of hosti,ies, by
land and sea, against Mexico. This ofconrse
disposcs Of the report lately brought by a
gentleman to Washington, OF an actual con-
liict between the armies Of the two countries
between the Rio Grande and the Nuces.
1t appears from this proclamation that the
treaty between Texas and Mexico was ne
gotiated through the good offices of the Rep
resentatives of Great Britain and France,
which were rendered Internationally, no terms
or conditions having been proposed by either
Of the governments, as the consideration Of
their friendly interposition. Capt. Elliot. it
is stated, arrived in New Orleans in the New

THE NEWSPAPERS.

Everywhere, says the Albany Argus. we
perceive, under the new Postoflice law, the
newspapers of the counties have given notice
thew will be sent to subscribers within 30 miles
Of their place of publication free ofpostage.
We hope that with this additional inducemenr
TO news paper reading, large accessions TO the
subscritons of the county papers at least will
be made. In every locality, it is the first
duty of every citizen, so far as he is a subscri-
Der at all, TO encourage his own county press.
The county newspapers. in this State, and
the remark is applicable to nearly every State
in the Union, are conducted, generally, with
intelligence, industry and ability, and with
desire to promote the local prosperity. They
combine large aggregate OF valuable infor-
nation or entertaining reading, which aside
from line desire to give and take mutual sup
port in all the branches OF local business and
occupation, are generally worth four times

miles in lengthy from Moscow to Astrachan
the leading seaport on the Caspian sea, at the
mouth of the Volga river. A branch IS also
contemplated to Warsaw, in Poland. and
probably to Riga. n leading commercial en-
porium on the Baltic sea.
The ST.. Pefersburgh and Moscow $500
miles in lengthy is considered the main trunk
of this giant system of railways. 1t is now
under vigorous construction and its opening
is regarded Of the more importance, as its re-
suits will determine the Emperor upon the
farther prosecution of his original plan. In
bis mind, railways are contemplated as the
effective levers Of a vast military organization,
giving an extraordinary power 10 the disci-
piiued legions of his army. In Russia, the
transportation Of the troops on account Of the
badness Of the Dads and the barrenness Of the
country is always an item Of difficulty. 1t will
take only tteo days to transport an amy from
ST. Petersbursh to Moscow, whereas now it
requires at least itro 1ceeES.
When the Emperor Of Russia's railway or
ganization is complete. it will embrace roads
in the aggregate Of fire thousand miles, at a
cost of not less than one hundred and ffty
millions of dollars. This is large sum, bnt
as he is a despot in every sense of the word,
who spends from tIrenty 10 thirty millions
per annum to keep up his vast miliiar, estab-
lishment, he will have no hesitation in max
lag this large outlay 10 give efficiency to his
arbitrary power.
1t is also more than probable that the con-
struction ofs periectsy system of railways would
diminish the necessity of keeping so many
troops in pay-as fifty thousand troops would
then, by the rapidity of railway iransporta-
ton, be able 10 be nearly as effective as one
hundred thousand. ItiswelI known that Ma
poleon considered CELEBRITY Of movement as
The avalanche Of military organization.
1t is worth remarking. that while in Russia,
railways are constructed for military purposes.
on the contrary, here. they are regarded sole
Iy for commercial purposes. Our view is
certainly the wiser aud nobler, as ministering
TO the comforts of the masses; yet it cannot
be overlooked that railways, in our country,
would give extraordinary nerve and power to
the military organization oftha United States.

THE SUBSCRIPTION TO THE
RUTLAND ROAD.

This as we have elsewhere observed a
mounts to SS00.40O. In il is included no
pledges for stock nor subscriptions on condi-
ton. The stock is taken bona fide by sub
stantial Farm ers, Mechanics, Merchants and
reliable men Of every profession and pursuit,
and generally in small amounts within the
means Of the subscribers. There are no
contingencies worth noticing. Every dol
lar will be paid. The county of Addison at
the Rutland convention showed up 10 S24l,-
600. and four thousand dollars more might
have been exhibited had the books been re-
turned. Chittenden Co. made out but As, 900.
Rutland county mustered pretty well, but
not as much as she promised. More than
100000. The exact amount we cannot
state. The east sidecame nearly up to 800,
600. At the convention, Rutland and Add
son members pledged themselves for each
county $4,000, and it was believed that
Chittenden would make out the balance

Woes come not single handed, but in bat

city ofQuebec has again been visited by con
flagration nearly or quite a, disastrous a, that
which laid it waste few days since. The
following from Quebec slip, furnish some
