Anniversaries.

VERMONT BintEN A/7Y.-The anuiversa
~ Of this prosperous aud valuable institution
will be held on Wednesday, Oct 90, at this
place. Rev. w. b. sprogue, Of Albany, N. Y.
delivers the annual sermon, in the evening at the
J Brick Church. 1t is contemplated that the an
nyersary will be an unusually interesting and
important orc. We remember the time when
the Legislature adjourned in the afternoon to
give the Society the use of 'he old State House
and the members Of both houses generally at
tended the anniversary and took part in the
proceedings of the society, in remarks and ad
dresses. The Bible Society was then fayorite
child of the Statc-not to receive aid by official
acts, but oiiicien, support by individual example,
liberal contributors and personal efforts. The
Railroads will convey those who attend the an
niycrsary, at half fare and we see no reason
why the spirit Of the "olden times" on the bless
ed Bible cause may not be revived Our own
villagers surely, will attend the evening exercis-
es, and our excellent choir Of singers, give addi-
tional interest to the occasion.
The Ter1nont Colonization Society," no less
important in our estimation than that of other
societies Of kindred character and object, holds
its third anniversary on the evening of the Dist
October at the same place. The annual report
aud other appropriate exercises, to promote the
welfare of the man ofcolor, viii give interest to
the occasion. We hope to see full house and
hear glad tidngs from Liberia. "

The Waterman & State Journal
Vermont Central Railroad Co.

According to promise last week we, proceed
to give full report Of the proceedings Of the an
nual meeting of the stockholders Of the corpora
ton. For this purpose, we adopt this account
prepared by the reporter of the Boston Travel
Ter, with a few verbal corrections and slight ad-
dltions
The meeting was quite large and the stock
much more fully represented than at any pre-
vious meeting. 1t will be observed that the new
board of Directors, embracing all Of the old
board who did not decline reelection, was
elected by a vote ne arly unanimous. This una
nimty is doubtless due, in some degree, to the
complete and satisfactory rolutation, by the In
vestigating Committee, Of the charges in sundry
Boston pamphlets and newspapers, duplicating
the personal integrity of the old Directors. The
stockholders could not justly have done less, nor
easily have done more, than they did, by their
very strong vote Of acquital. Perhaps II will
be remarked that the names Of Messrs Smith
and Langdon do not appear in the report, as hay
ing had any pecuniary transactions with the com
pany We understand that they have had none
whatever except compensation for expenses and
per diem services, and that statement to this
effect was accidentally omitted
The letter of the late Treasurer was quite
summarily disposed Of; but possibly with NOR
lenitv than would otherwise have been accord
ed, had the meeting learned, what aiterward
transpired, that the letter, signed by the lat
Treasurer, appeared TO be in the hand writing O
JoHN w. SEYMOUR.
The business of the road, as appears by The
report Of the Investigating Committee, has large
" increased the past summer and, we will add
that the prospects for the fall business, -loca
business to say the .east-are fattering.

Important .lrrcsi.-- Baltimore, Oct. :. The
llanoverlan Consul here has received Informa-
ton Of the ares, in Hanover of man named
Frederick Molecke, recently returned there from
this country and having in his possession $1,000
in American coin, large gold medal, and a
quantity Of valuable jewelry, the manner of ac-
quiring which he would give no satisfactory ac-
count Of He was an old convict IN Hanover
and whilst in this country was arrested several
times. He resided principally in Philadelphia
and Baltimore. II is thought he may have been
concerned IN the Portsmouth VA Bank robbery,
and that the medal in lis possession may be the
celebrated Clay medal which was stolen in New
York.

public statement Of the proceedings connected
with the arrival Of the Crescent City at Havana.
When the steamer approaching the har-
Dor, she was met at the mouth by the boarding
officer, who signalized 10 him not to attempt to
enter. These signals we're disregarded aud the
steamer proceeded without pilot to the anchor
age. They were here boarded by the officers,
who finding tie nsstne OF PuIser smith on the
ships papers, produced an order fromthe Captain
General, requiring him to leave port immediate
". This Capt. p. also refused to obey, claiming
the right to landing mails aud passengers. lie
also sent protest TO the Captain General who
declined TO receive any communication from
Capt. p. except through the American Consul,
who happened TO be absent from his post. In the
meantime, the order was repeated for the Cres-
cent City to leave port Immediately. Finding
further parley useless, Capt. Porter put to sea at
Z in the morning. The protest Is an able and
manly document.
