WAR AT LAST.

her long threatened war against the
y. States, and we are now called upon
10 meet her not with the warm hand

family Of nations, but upon the field.
She of course pretends in justification
Of her course that the American army
Of occupation is on her soil. Bot be this
as it may, large force Of MeXicans

supposed to have surrounded Gen. Tay-

Our Railroad Meeting.

Mr. EDITOR The annual meeting Of
the Stockholders 10 this road, which is 10
be holden at Rutland on the l4lh instant,
will be one of deep interest, and will, with
out doubt be fully attended. TO those oil
YOUR readers who are interested in this
great enterprise, will suggest few con
siderations, touching two questions which
[ take for granted will come before the
meeting for decisive action. First; Shall
the Directors then TO be chosen, be in
strucled to put the road, or some portion
Of it under contract. as soon ps the neces
sary preliminary measures can be taken
And 81; lfso, what porlion2 Assuming
that there will be a united opinion in ia
vor Of building this road by section, that
is, of finishing. as far, and us fast as the
means will permit; it will then become
important to fix on the right plan Of COM
menciog the work, both On account Of ST.
curing most readily The remaining sub.
scriptIons necessary to complete The whole
line, and also to insure the more immedi1te
income from the outlay made. The pres
ent subscriptions to this stock are Sufficient
to complete and put in operation about one
half Of the whole contemplated line.
Many Of the railroads in New England
we're put under contrac', or pant Of them,
when but portion of The capital required
for their completion was subscribed, The
building Of the Fichburg road was COM
mencing when the amount of their sub
scrip,ions was sufficient 10 complete only
fifteen miles Of their line, which section
they finished and put 10 operation. Be-
fore which, however, subscriptions were
added TO their stock, so that the company
were able TO prosecute the work with Wig
our 10 its final completion.
In proceeding upon the plan of finish
ing, and putting in operation portions Of
the road as far and as fast as the means
will allow, we shall be sure that the work
will be worth at all times, at least what ii
cost, and be in a condition to yield an i'm
mediate income; so that if begun right
end foremost the rapid completion of the
whole contemplated line may be relied
upon with ali reasonable certainty.
Ii we determine 10 go TO work, where

intended 10 connect, OF at the terminus of
another road leading thereto.
We have agreed, with entire unanimily
hitherto on adopting the line surveyed
from Burlington 10 Bellows Falls. And
on the suPposiiion that re adhere 10 'ha.
route, our work Of building should. ae.
cordng 10 The rule suggested, be COM
menced a. the latter place. But | would
say most emphalicaIy, that before con
tract shall be made for breaking ground in
that direction, the importan precious qoss-
lion should be definitely and permanently
seHled. That OF a connection with tho
Cheshire at BcIlowJ Falls; and on such
terms, for the transportation Of our freight
and passengers ever that and the Fitch
burg road, as shall be deemed satisfactory
by our B ard. Such an arrangement
should be The sine qua non, Of proceeding
to bui'd our road from that point. II such
coonexIon, on satisfactory terms, shall net
be acceded to by those companies in the
outset, then let US begin at Burlington and
build on to Rutland and my word for il,
The work will 10! stop at the latter place,
as we have assurances which are qui.e
satisfactory, tba! our freight aud pnrsen-
gers can reach Boston by another ire, on
which the reduced price Of freight ard
fares with other advantages will more
than compensate for the increase il dis
tauce, while The cost Of building our own
'oad TO meet it, will be less expensive by
the change Of location, and its southern
section much more productive in way bu-
siness. Besides, it will connect all Yves,
tern Vermont, oy CONTINUOUS railway
line, with the markets Of Bosom, Prov.
dence, Hartford, New Haven, New York,
Albany and Troy; and also, many impor.
tant manufacturing and other Intermediate
towns. Sill, let US adhere 10 our original
purpose of connecting with the Cheshire
and Fichburg roads, provided we can do
so on terms of entire reciprocity. But If
the Directors of those roads shall persi st
in fostering the Central company in their
systematic efforts to defeat our enterprise
then let our Board be instructed 10 take

Gated, and leave those Directors to enjoy

Visit of the HutchinSOnS
TO HARRIET MARTINEAU.

The new London periodical known as the
'People's Journal contains a deeply interest
ing description of the visit of the Hutchin-
son family to the residence of Harriet Mar
t%ineau, and of their delightful performances
in the neighborhood. This description is
from Miss MS own graphic pen. Though
somewhat extended, we copy nearly the en-
tire of it:
II was as lovely an evening as any during
this glorious Tune of 1916. As / stood on
the shores at Waterhead, waiting for the stea-
mer, l endeavored to look upon tho landscape
with the eyes of a stranger, and thought that,
if i were then seeing il for the first time, it
would appear to me the true paradise of this
world. The soft ruddy evening light on
Wansfell, the purple hcllows of Loughrigg,
the deep shadows on the western side of the
lake, pierced by lines of silver light-the
white gables of the houses at Clappergate,
from the woods which skirt Louph-
rigg-and the little gray church on its knoll
in the centre of the Brathay yalley-these
made mp such a vision of delicious c%oloring.
| imagined my friends on the deck Of
the steamer saying that never in any ~lustrous
evening of a New-England Autumn, had
they enjoyed a richer feast to eye and mind.
Then came the steamer, rounding the point
from Lowwood. There seemed 10 be but
few passengers on deck-no sign of any band
of brothers, with a sister in the midst. They
were not there; and | had only to hasten
home, lest they should arrive some other way.
Before | had been at home many minutes, |
saw from my terrace q barouehs coming rap
