OUR RAILROAD.

By the following account Of the meeting in
Boston, it will appear that our railroad is
again on the Que vive. Il is, after all, the
popular railroad through Vermont. 1t is
said in the Keene Sentinel that a single in
dividual on the stock vote in the late meet
ing, represented 5000 shares. That individ-
ual has embarked his all in the construction
and success Of the Central, and must sink or
swim NTH il. The honest Mr.. FELTON, also
had his finger in the pie. Thence the power
full effort made upon that occasion to crush
the Rutland road. But these men can no Ion
ger bias the sober judgment Of The intelligent
business men Of Boston as It relates TO the
superior advantages Of the Rutland road.
The great body ofihe stockholders of the
Cheshire and Fitchburgh roads see clearly
the natural affinity of the Rutland TO theirs,
and we have reason to believe that all classes
will speedily evinee their convictions on this
subject by subscribing. the amount of stock
necessary for its construction. Should $780,
600 further subscriptions be made, operations
will commence without further delay.

A good many office holders arc dreading

Two of the auditors are trembling in their

pressure for office is so great and all the
Wings who can be spared having been turn
ed GU, of office, that Mr.. Polk finds il necrs-
sary 10 make open war upon his friends. The
official paper during the last week or two
has been writing of negro Slavery in the
States, but in what part oftIe Union or Of
Christendom is there worse servitude TO be
found, than holding office under the General
Government. II is bondage without the
blessings OF Jubilee when during every

FROM THE ARMY

OF the division under Gen. Taylor, during
the three glorious days. Of the detail Of whose
operations little is yet known, we see the fol-
lowing notice in letter 10 the Maiamoras
Flag:
1t would be impossible for me 10 give any
thing like an accurate description Of what
took place in the other THAT Of which we
speak division ofihe army. 1t will be bet
ter described by thoee connected with it
Let II suffice thai here our great loss was sus-
tanned. The troops all behaved gallanfly.-
Although exposed 10 murderous fire, the
volunteers bore it and faced death with
fortitude that would set an example TO any
regular troops in the world.
Major Mansfield was ordered out TO re-
connoitre, supported by Col. Garland's brig
ade, consisting ofthe Sd and 18th Infantry,
and Capt. Bragg's battery. Major Mans
field led them learlessly, or reckles,ly into
the city, followed by Col Garland, until sud
denly they were envelopcd in fire from bat
teries in 'front.', and muskets from the strong
stone houses on both sides Of the street. All
the doors were barricaded, and they could
get no shelter-neiiher coulc they see their
foe. They were driven back after loosing
hundreds; and when parties returned 10
take of the wounded, they were shot down
and the wounded lanced in the streets. Mai,
Mansfield was wounded, but got off; Capt.
Bragg's battery was cut TO pieces-horses

Resolutions-By Mr.. Bill, for evening
sessions, commencing this evening, half past
six O'Clock laid on The table. BY Mr.. Kim
ball, instructins Judiciary committee TO re-
port a bill requiring an equitable distribution
of property attached on mesne process
among all the creditors-Mr. Fairbanks re-
marked that the subject was one worthy oil
inquiry, and he trusted the resolution would
pess. Mr.. Harrington of nj. said this would
entirely overturn the present system; he
thought it would be entirely impracticable,
unless the principles Of the probate laws were
to be applied to debtors-making them civily
dead and having their estate administered
upon. Mr.. Miner said there were evils in
the present system which Ought 10 be re-
deemed, but he thought the present system
would involve great difficulties, particularly
in asceitaining the amount Of debts owed.
Mr.. Walker objected that this proposition
would place debtors entirely at the mercy Of
any man who could buy up FIVE dollar debt
such man could attach. and require the
whole estate Of the debtor TO be administered
upon. Mr.. Kimball said the present system
was ruinous to every Nan who was so un,
fortunate as TO become involved in debt, and
was severely felt by young men who have
been unsuccessful in business. Finally, the
resolution was modified so as TO Instruct an
inquiry merely, and passed without opPosi
ton.
