FAYETTE CoRpoRATIoN.-What has be-
come of the corporate powers of the town!
A new election should have been held on
the Sd inst.--but we understand no poll
was opened. We suppose the old Trus.
tees hold over until their successors are
chosen; and if so, we hope they will meet
and order an election, and let US see if we
cannot get little more efficient guardians
of the lnterests of the town than they
have been. They have met, we believe,
bu, seldom, and if they hold over, as
above supposed, it is to be hoped a new
election will be ordered Immediately, and
efficien, men chosen, who will leave some
mark of improvement on our town, to
bear witness that they were once its guar.
dams.

New TELEGRAPH LINE.-We learn from
the Brattleboro' papers of last week, that a
project is on foot for telegraph line from
Springfield, Mass, up Connecticut River,
through Northampton and Greenfield to
Brattleboro' and Bellows Fals-thence to
Rutland. Also for another line from Bellows
Falls to Keene, Fitchburg and Worcester,
Mass. A meeting was held in Brattleboro'
on Monday evening, LIST inst, and Commit
tee appointed to attend to the business of
procuring stock subscriptions. The following
named gentlemen constitute said Commit
tee Joseph Steen, Z. Kirkland and Samuel
Dutton. Go ahead, gentlemen, but get the
most safe plan for telegraphing news. We
will venture the opinion that not many years
will eiapse before competition and demand
for news transmitted by telegraph will be so
great, and the improvements SO thorough.
that news wires will be extended through n
large portion of the towns in New England.
