in their turn went up, up. up, and then again
they went down. down, down. On the 9TH inst.
sixteen balotings were had, leaving all in doubt
and uncertainty. The delegates seemed to have
no fixed principles Of action, voting for one can
didate this time, and another the next. Buchan.
an, who had been gradually gaining after the

creased to - on the SD ballot Douglass, on
the Both and 3lst ballots reached ~ but on the

sudden rise, and went up to 1913 votes but, alas
for Gen. Cass, and the stability the Democracy,
it went down again as sudden as it went up.
At the ADD ballot the vote stood Cass 1873,

times. when the Rutland and Burlington Railroad
Conpanv deliver their cars upon the track or
their passengers at the depot of the Vermont
Central Railroad seasonably, or at times to be
agreed on, take the passengers promptly and

agreed on.

on Lake Champan, north of a line across said
lake due west from Vergonnes, shall be taken by

rates as shall, taken together with the rates
charged by the conveyances to and from said
point, be less than the rates fixed in the tariffs
hereto annexed, and which are to be considered
part of this agreement
sth Either party may revoke this memoran-
dun by giving the other party six months no.
tice.
To this proposition the President of the Rut-
land and Burlington Railroad Company objected
for two reasons one, that he did not think it
best TO abolish the agencies and the other, that
lac wished to have a provision by which the Rut-
lullu anu burlington cars COllC DC run through
to Ogdensburg. To this replied that there was
no written or permanent agreement between the
Ogdensburgh and Vermont Central roads, TO
take the cars of the Central through to Ogdcns-
burg and until such an one was made, | did
not think it prudent TO enter into an arrangement
with the Rutland and Burlington on this point,
it might give that road n preference over the
Central. | did however, offer to make this ar
rangement for all merchandise in Rutland and
Burlington cars which did not come IRON points
competing with the Central
The foregoing proposition left with the
President of the Rutland and Burlington Compa-
ny, to be dcliberated upon and copied, and retur-
ned TO me, with the understanding that he would
write to me upon the subject, and make propo-
siton, if he could not agree to this. The copy
Of the proposition ! left was returned without
signature, and have had no communication
irom or with him, since that time.
As to connections between the Ogdensburg
and Central roads, | am not aware of ever hav-
ing objected to any arrangement for the benefit
Of the two The cars of both have for a long
time run through from Boston to Ogdeusburg,
and fair division of the rates Of fare has been
made | am not only ready to enlarge and i'm
