AL RALRoAD.-RETURN OF THE AGENT.
Mr.. Fairbanks, the agent of the B. C.'S. o.
Nd. r. r. Association to visit Montreal, returned
last Thursday evening, As the charter had been
passed by the Canadian parliament one day be-
fore he reached the City there was but little done
which cannot be as well done for the present
through the columns of the Canadian papers
and which is thus to be done-he tarried there
but few days The action of the people of Bos-
ton was too late to counteract Immediately the
influence of the proceedings of the Maine Depu-
tation, who had already left when Mr.. F. arrived.
This action however, when made known had an
astonishing effect upon the public mind, as it
could not but have, inasmuch as Judge PrebbIe
had induced the belief that Boston people favor
ed the Portland rather than the Concord route,
and many had been left to act accordingly-con-
sdering the Portland route as their main chance
for an outlet to the Atlantic. As matters are,
however, they point to our route as destined to
be successful, and since Boston has walked up,
the friends even of the Portland route confess
that ours will be built first.
The Chater-It runs from Montreal, via
St. Hyacnthe and Sherbrooke, to strike a road
from Portland, with branch to strike Vermont
any where in the County of Stanstead, and one
to Quebec The Stanstead branch can tap the
main line on the St. Lawrence opposite to Mont
real, by which the route from Stanstead to Mont
real is shortened 33 es-making the distance
between the two places only 90 miles 1t is
about all that the friends Of the Concord route
needsto ask. They only loose by il the infu-
ence of the people of Sherbrooke, and the land
company, which together could do no more than
build half of the 33 miles saved by avoiding
Sherbrooke and which will be made up proba-
bly, by an equal amount of influence and wealth
invested in and attached to the shorter route to
Montreal. The Portland people have secured
no exclusive privileges by the charter though
they sought them, and the branch is all we need
and road zoe shall hage--and a road they ,oOn'
hdve-at present
In regard to the feasibility of the shorter route
to Montreal, it is better than the one by Sher'
brooke,-can be built easier and cheaper. The
survey proves this beyond cavil. To go ahead
is all the friends of the Concord route are now
required to do to have road in due season.

SHOCKING MURDER-A gentleman from Lex
ington, KY, received letter yesterday morning,
of the 9th inst, giving an account the murder
of Clifton r. Thomson of that place, by the
hands Of his brother-in-law H. Daniel, the par
tculars are as follows Clifton r. Thomson
and his brother W. J. Thomson had gone to Mr.
Sterling to attend to a suit in court between G.
R. Thomson and H. Daniel, which suit has been
continued from court to court by the afidavits
of said Daniel for good many terms. He ask
ed for further continuance in the case, and to
obtain it made affidavit to some things which
Thomson objected to. Thomson was being heard
by the Judge on the subject of continuance,
and accused Daniel of stating a vile and false
calumny in his affidavit At this moment Dan
lei arose and observed to him, not to repeat that
Thomson with his face to the Judge said, do
repeat it, and at that instant Daniel drew his
pistol and fired, the ball passed through his body;
killing him instantly Daniel made an effort to
escape but was taken and hurried off to Jail, OF
he otherwise would have been murdered by the
mob. Public opinion seems to be very much
against Daniel and the affair is looked upon as
being an unprovoked and premeditated murder
