VERMONT CENTRAL. An anonymous
writer in the last Freeman says" Since the
last meeting Of the Directors, we have been
in vain looking to the editors and officers OF
the Company in this village, for some word
of encouragement" &c. We are not aware
Of any thing Of interest to the public, which
occurred at the last meeting or any other,
that was not stated at the earliest moment in
the Waterman. The temper of this writer's
article leads us to suspect that "encourage-
ment," in respect to the Central road would
be very far from satisfactory to him; indeed
we fear that the recent payment, i'll full, Of
stock, by some of the heaviest subscribers
here, has stirred him up to this effort to dis
courage others. Be this as it may, if the wri-
ter is stakeholder, he has his rights and
any application for information, in the proper
mode and at the proper quarter, will unques-
tionably receive prompt attention. If he is a
friend of the road, and his object really is to
obtain information, it strikes US that he has
missed his way: an application in person, to
some officer Of the Company, is always far
more likely to be successful than anonymous
and i'll tempered attacks in the columns of a
newspaper We will warrant any stoclhold-
er to receive very strong encouragement"
as to the finances Of the Company, on such
an application and we will venture to say to
the public now,that the resources of the Com
pany have been of late so far beyond the
sum required that the Treasurer has just tax
en- and paid for portion Of the iron in ad-
vance Of the time named in the contract, the
contractor allowing the Company interest on
this advance payment. 1t is now expected
that one thousand tons of the iron will be
brought up by boats, during the high water in
Connecticut river.-IE IVaicbman, 25M.

There appears to be some discordant notes in the
arrangement or performance of the concert just
given by the before named trio! This does not
sound exactly in harmony with the roaring of can
and ringing Of the bells on the "Iour Glass"
occasion! To those interested in the Central rail-
road this musical performance of the Freeman, the
Watch-nan, and the Patriot, must sound about as
Pdjneful as the dis-chords emanatng from a steam
whistle, gong, and half dozen Old fashioned fire
shovels thrown upon stone hearth! Give us an
other try, gentlemen, and let us zee whether you
can improve on the last performance; for We folks
in Western Vermont are amazingly fond Of music,
and VIC rather inclined to think that by little
practice you will be able to play set-piccc to our
liking.
Hope the Wa:ch-man will not fad II in his heart
to attach any blame to editors the R'd'qnd rail-
road route, for divulgng secrets this occasion!
