Agency of the York
CANTON TEA COMPANY.
largest and oldest Tea Establishment in America
The public have had full proof Of their integrity and
responsibility. But such has been the great and
pressing demand for their TEAS Of late, that they
have been obliged to enlarge, to great extent ncir
two principal establishments in New York, viz
1876 CHATHAM AND 1853 GREENWICH
STREETS.
They moreover possess facilities, In relation to the
Tea Trade, in very abundant degree, and doubt
less, superior to any other Tea Concom in America.
Their scrupuous regard to all principles that tend
to elevate the character Of large house, is well un
dcrstood, and has already secured them connec-
ton, probably larger than all other Tea Establish
mehts united, and they consequently determined
to sell Teas purer, more fragrant, and perfect for
The prices, in the aggregate, than any house in the
world-China excepted.
They most zealously invite the attention Of the in
habitants of WASHINGTON, ID. G., to their
Agency, where the following assortmonts are always
on handand they feel hesitation in stating that
wherever single trial is made, very decided pre-
ference is given TO tho celebrated Teas of the CAN.

are glad to see the official development of the
sumpsic and Connecticut Rivers Rail Road
Company-such as appears in the advertise.
ment for contracting "a miles, in addition to
the section contracted some time since, and
upon portion of which the grading has been
completed The intention is, we understand
to have some 40 miles of the road completed
and the cars upon it in October 1S4S In the
mean time other portions of the route will be
put into such state of forwardncss as cir
cumstances and the funds of the company may
warrant
There have been late accessions to the stock,
and the prospects of the Company are as fiat
terng as any body need wish
The good success of our Canadian friends
in regard to opening road from Montreal to
the line, will, we doubt not, stimulate the
friends Of the Passumpsic Road to use all ne
cessary exertions in order to be ready to "hitch
on at the earliest day possible.
1t is an acknowledged fact, all round that
we are to have n Rail Road, the question now
is, when will it be done' This will depend
people interested. If they back up the board
of officers with proper zeal and promptness the
work will go on without interruption. That
they will do so there appears to be no reason
to doubt.
The completion ofthis road TO the line will
give a'ncw face to things in the northern part
of Vermont, and it is not strange at all that
the people are looking forward to its compile
ton with gladness, All hearts are united-let
all hands be united to bring the welcome day.
After the above had been put in type we
received the following memorandum from one
of the Directors of the Road
The proposals advertised embrace thirty four
miles, which, with the sections heretofore con-
tractcd, include the entire division between
the mouth of White River and Wells River
forty miles.
At recent meeting of the Board of Dircc.
tors it was decided to proceed with all reason.
able dispatch with the construction of this
portion Of the road, and there is no reason to
doubt but the cars will run to Wells River in
the course of next year.
This part of the road must do a heavy bust.
ness immediately on its completion--travers
ing, as it does, the best portion of the Valley
Of Connecticut River north of Greenfield,
Mass There is not in any part of New Eng
land a more hourishng farming district nor
greater diffusion of water power. The viii
lagos and towns along the line indicate a pro-
fusion of wealth and prosperity unusual for
the country.
In completing the locating survey the line
is found much more favorable than was indi.
Gated by the preliminary survey, and no grade
upon this forty miles will exceed twenty-six
feet per mile.
tits understood that arrangements have been
made for connexion and general depot of
the three roads-the Northern, the Passump-
sic, and the Vermont Central-at the mouth
of White River.
