" The Money and Business artic @ of the
Boston Atlas Of the 2;'d contains the following
paragraph:-
Public attention has been drawn to the va
rous articles pro and con regarding the famous
:" unnel bill" by which the State is to loan its
credit to the Vermont and Mas 5acAusetS Rail
road Co. The vote III the Senate, and the IN
tcipat success of the measure in the House,
have served to carry the stock much above the
prices at which it has heretofore ruled, or which
it would have attained within the same time,
had the proposed measure not been agtated.--
On Monday it reached 81 but fell back in the
afternoon to 33. Ogdcnsburgh stock fell off on
Monday to 3JI. The sudden termination of
the Bridge bll'' has had something to do with
this decline; for we cannot, reasoning from the
merits of the stock alone. come to any other
conclusion than that the selling price is below
its real worth as an investment. We under
stand that freight is beginning to move over the
road from the Eastward cheering sign of its

CooL.-The Post SAYS

Sumner was elected by the Wings tina,
is, HE RECEIVED MORE WING FREE Soil VOTES
THAN HE DID DEMoCRATlC FREE Soil VOTES
and upon the last secret btIlot il is said two
Wings, who had all along voted for Winthrop,
either voted for Sumne:, or cast blank votes, by
which his election was secured"
The Post, for nearly four months, declared
that the Democratic Representatives would not
elect Mr.. Sumner. THIS may have been an
error OF Judgment. 1t now declares tina, they
did not elect him. This is wilfu mis-state-
ment OF facts.
Not Wing voted for Sumner from begin
ming TO end, except Mr.. Borden, of Fall River,
who voted under Instructions - Commonwealth
1t is not often that we quote from the Com.
monwealth but the above is so true, that we
cheerfnlly give it a place. We wish to have
the ialsehood of the Post denied by the other
organ of the Democracy. To charge the cleo
ton of Mr.. Sumner upon the Wings, is the
most brazen piece of mendacty that we have
lately seen. The Post must have been aware,
that from the beginning to the end not one
Wing voted for Mr.. Sumner, save and except
Mr. Borden, who voted for him on account of
instructions. And yet the Post says "Nr.
Sumner 'raS elected By The WhigS.' The cleo
ton Of MIR. Sumner was contamination of Il
bargain entered into last Fall, between the Free
Sellers and the Democrats, to which bargain
the Post was party. 1t supported the Goals
ton candidates, and rejoiced in their triumph.
Mr.. Boutwell, is this day Governor by the same
votes that elected Mr.. Sumner. The Post
loudly applaHded the election of Mr.. Boutwell,.
and will unqueStionaby support him for Gov
ernor next Fall and to his efforts, together
with those of Speaker Banks, Senator Girls
void, and other leading Democrats, MIR. Sum
ner owes his election. The hypocrisy of the
Post is bad enough, without adding thereto the
sin of broad and unequiyocal Justification
