RUTLAND RAIL RoAp II will bc seen,
from the articles which we publish this week,
tina, decided improvement in the prospects
Of this road IL msnifes,ing itself In every
quarter. On the one hsnd m-will,ats seen
that the Boston people begin TO see things
in their true light, and to appreciate, In de.
gree, the advantages this road would bring
to them Ga the other hand the Southern
interests are awake to the matter, and II is
not to be disguised that the Project Of
the Southern connection is fast gaining
friends throughout the length and breadth Of
Western Vermont. The earnest appeals
that have for so long a time been made by
US for aid from Boston, and their deafness to
the reasons so long urged upon Them hs, IN
Guced many Of the earliest and most ardent
friends OF the original PROJECT, TO give their
decided preference TO the Southern route
Albany and Troy, too, ara beginning to man.
Hest little anxiety as II regards this ques-
ton OF 'dlreciion'-and well they may. We
had always supposed that when they saw
the danger OF the trade of Western Vermont
Leaving them they would begin to bes,lr
themselves. In view then, of all these points
IN the case, itbehooves our Boston friends
l. they would yet secure to themselves the
trade OF this most productive portion OF New
England-,o arouse themselves fully to the
importance Of this great enterprise, and
what they do, tina, they should do quickly.

COTTON IN INDIA,

1t has been contended by the friends Of a "home
market" that our cotton interest was in danger OF
being injured by the competition Of the East In
dies. Some time since, the remarkable fact was de-
veloped by the evidence of Americans expressly
sent over TO conduct the cultivation of cotton in the
east that the East Indies were not at all fitted for
the production of cotton, and that the experiment
was a failure. The English papers received by the
overland mail furnish the following striking facts.
We have no fears that American cotton will not
command the markets of the world.
The following extract from the papers brought
out by this mall will not be uninterestng in the
United States:
"BonBAY MARKET, July ls.-Great complaints
are made of the cotton trade We have so often
before expressed opinions that the cotton trade
Of Western India was undergoing process of rapid
extinction, that have hesitated boring read
with the subject again. A correspondent, how
ever, has handed the following comparative state
ment Of the exports during the first six months OF
the last four years, which places the decline in so
serious a point of view that we do not hesitate
again calling attention to question of SO vital i'm
pertance to the whole presidency.

The vIcroRY-We cannot refrain from again
congrntulating the democracy of Baltimore on their
glorious victory of Wednesday. They worked
with holy ardor in the good cause--worked SO as
to deserve victory, and Justly therefore received it.
The great increase Of the wing vote shows what
they had TO contend with, and that supneness like
that Of the 7th would have ended in an overwhelm-
ing defeat. They went to work manfully, and
success crowned their exertions. Henceforth, let
them bear in mind that it is only their duty to do
as they did on Wednesday last and whigery can
never obtain foothold in our beloved city. The
price Of their safety is eternal vigilance, and that,
after the lesson received the 7h, will be paid
by the brave and true democracy Of Baltimore for
the preservation oftheir principles.
II is no secret that this occasion, large num-
Der Of those who have usually voted ticket,
few from our ranks and voted for the whig candi-
date for the mayoralty from purely personal mo-
tives. They still call themselves democrats, but
while they grauhed their feelings, they endangered
| the ascendancy Of the party. ...'
No officer can do his duty, and not give offence
\ 10 some. No appointments can be made, though
they be made with the purest intentions, and with
single eye TO the public good, without causing dis
satisfaction and discomfort. From such causes, and
from no other excellent mayor lost several hun
4 dred votes. .t
| u rejoioes US 10 know that we have democratic
Il mayor foe the next two years-one indeed to whom
| 81 can look with confidence in every emergency
The peace and good order Of the city are assured
i against all disturbers. All, wings and democrats
i trust implicitly to the impartiay, activity, and en-
Il erey Of Col. Davies. He has won the esteem apt
i gratitude Of his fellow-oitizens and but for tn

MURDER AND SUICIDE.

A most shocking murder and suicide was commit
ted at the United States Hotel in Hartford, on
Wednesday noon, about o'clock, L. M. Hol-
comb, of Lexington, Ky, (son Of Mr.. Serene Hol-
comb, Of Granby) had an unsettled suit against
Daniel F. Ocott, Of Hartford, and was stopping at
the United States Hotel. Ii understood that an
attempt would be made 10 compromise the matter,
and for this purpose 0lcott was invited into Hol-
combs room, for the purpose of discussing the
terms Of settlement. Nothing was known Cf it's
progress, however, until the house was alarmed by
two or three pistol shots heard IN the direction Of
Holcomb's room. IL was Immediately entered, and
Holcomb and Olcett were both found upon the floor,
near the foot of the bed-HOlcomb lying on his
face, dead, and Ocou still breathing, but unable to
speak, aud died soon after. Holcomb was shot
through the temple, and Olcot through the forehead,
and the coroners jury found verdict Of murder and
suicide against Holcomb. II appeared in evidence
that Holcomb had procured percussion caps, and
repairs TO revolving pistol, the day previous
and that the pistol found lying between the bodies be-
longed to HoIcomb. The supposition is, that high
words ensued between the parties, when Holcomb
shot Olcott then Selling his carpet bag he medtated
flight, but concluded the attempt would be futile,
and placing the pistol to his own head ended the
tragedy by selfsacrifce. Holcomb was to have
been married to young lady in the vicinity of
Hartford this week, and was about 80 years of age.
Ocott was single man, about 40 years of age,
keeping a livery stable in Hartford, but formerly
concerned in the clock business at the south.

The ARMY AT SAN ANToNIo.-From letter dated
at Camp Crockett, on the l4th September and pub
lished in the Alton Telegraph, we derive some in
tcrestng facts in relation to the Illinois volunteers
at San Antonio. We have already noticed the duel
between Dr. Hope, Of Alton, and DR.. Price, of Belle
vile, in which the latter was severely wounded in
the abdomen 1t was stated that the difficulty was
caused by DR.. Price repeating a private conversa-
ton which had taken place in Dr. Hopes tent. DR..
Hope, feeling himself aggrieved thereby, severely
logged Dr. Price in the streets of San Antonio,
which caused the latter to send challenge him.
Major Cross Of the United States army, acted as
the second of DR.. Price; and Capt Williams, of the
Kentucky ife-guards, acted for DIR. Hope.
Capt Dodge and Lieut.. Kellogg, Of company E,
ID regiment illinois volunteers, have resigned, from
ill-health Peter Lott, esq.,, elected captain, Fl.
Briggs second lieutenant, and T. Kelley third lieu
tenant. In the 1st regiment Capt. Dickey, of the
Ottowa company, having resigned, BENJAMIN Prem
tiss, adutant of the 1st regiment was elected cap
tain.
Alta general court-martia," held p few days pre-
vious to the date of the letter, Capt. Wells and
Second Lieut.. l.. ID. Ross, of one of the Chicago
companies, were convicted of "unoffcer like con-
duct" and "negect of official dutes;" the former
was cashiered" and declared forever after incapa-
BILE of holding any office in the armies Of the Uni
ted Sates," and the latter was dismissed the
vice."
William P. Shields, of Montgomery county, and
Plea ant Oliver, Of Union county, are named among
the deaths in the Illinois regiments. ....
