THE TIDE TURSEyG.- Il was TO he
expected that the s,ringeney CT the times
could not last forever 1t IS not surpris-
ing to see that the factories in all parts
of the country are resuming work. This
news IS now coming daily, from various
manufacturing districts, as the tidiGgs of
the stoppage did IN the worst days of the
panic.
The Philadelphia Press of yesterday
contains this graphic announcement:
The cotton mills of Joseph Ripka
ESD, 1T Manavunk, we understand, will
again resume operations to-day. Spen-
GERS mills. at Germantown, will also re-
sumo work in a few days. The extern
sire cotton mills, near HestonvilIe, which
have recently changed proprie,ors, are
now undergoing repairs, and will be in
full operation in few days. These
mills will give employment to a large
number Of hands and save many deserv-
ing families from suffering during the
winter"
The following manufacturing establish
ments have also resumed operations:
Union Manufacturing Company a,
N0rwalk, Conn.
Chicopee Mills, Mass.
Rolling and Nail Mills at Fall River.
Nassass0it Flour Mills do
American Print Works do
Carolina Mills do
Eddy's Wooden Mills do
The Amerc'n Print Works do
Pounsbury Bissel & Cos N'rks do
Albany Iron Works
Renssalar do
Nalicil Mills.
Building operations are going fore
ward actively in Springfield, Mass. Sew
eral new blocks of stores are in progress
on Main street. The United States Ar
mory, in the same town, employs its full
number Of men.
The Philadelphia Ledger remarks that
the number of persons out of employ
ment in that city, who are willing to
work, is not 50 great as many imagine,
and that in no city in he Union is there
less suffering than in Philadelphia, while
in none are there more institutions estab-
lished, for the relief of the poor.-N. Y.

A customary exercise which was post

1t appeared there had been trouble in the

E5 The Vermont Chronicle quoted
with appreciation one or two of the reso-
lutions passed by the Republican State
Convention. Of course the Administra-
ton papers of the State think it was guilty
ofan awful improperly. Thereupon the
Chronicle max es this most appropriate
remark +:
"The Vermont Chronicle claims the
right to condemn wrong act of this or
any other administration, when the occa-
sion demands it, without being charged
with party motives. In the exercise Of
manly independence the ablest friends Of
the administration express their disap-
probation Of its acts, and their dissent
from its views with perfect freedom, when
in their view circumstances require it
1t Is only small tools of party, without
mind enough to think, or force enough
to stand Of themselves, that find it neces
sary to adopt and defend everything the
party or administration may say or do
for fear Of the lash. 1t is only mel
fitted to be tools, that relinquish tn,
right to judge for themselves when to b.
silent, when to speak, and what to say
about the government of the country"

The Vt. Stock Journal says: The gen.
tlemen sent to England by the Illinois
Importing Association, to purchase stock
have purchased thirty two head of
Short-Horn cattle, one thorough bred
stallion, one thorough bred FLY, one
Cleayland bay stallion, twenty-five sheep
and twenty-five pigs. The Liverpool
Post says they are very fine lot of ami
mails, and cost large sum of money!
25O guineas was paid for one two year
old heifer.
Mr.. G. S. Wainwrights sale of Devon
stock which took place near Rhinebeck,
n. Y, June p, was well attended and
the prices for bulls ranged from 500 tc
$500, and for COWS and heifers from 500
to $50.
Mr.. R. A. Alexander's late sale o
fShort-Horns was fully attended. A cor
respondent of the Ohio Farmer says
"The young bulls brought more none!
than at either of his previous sales the,
were however, finer lot than he ha
ever sold. The COWS and heifers did no
bring extravagant figures. His stool
was all in fine condition. The crow
was immense, at least three times as man
as last year, and a finer looking, bette
dressed and better behaved set ofmen
never saw together before"

RailwaY--A New Project.

Among other things that are dreamed
Of, talked about, and declared to be " dead
certainties," is railway from Montpelier
to intersect with the Passumpsic road at
the head of Lake DIemphremagog.-
This project we understand is talked
about earnestly, and excites no small
share of interest on the part of many
persons who are men Of business, energy,
and means.
1t is a good project, feasible, and we
say God speed it! Starting at Montpe-
Tier, thence following up the valley of the
North Branch to Worcester, thence thro'
Elmore, South Hardwick, Craftsburv,
and the valley of the Black River to the
Lake, is a distance of about fifty miles
through an excellent and prosperous ag-
rieultural region. We venture to say
that nowhere in New England can
railway, for an equal distance, be con-
structed, or kept in repair, so cheaply by
one third as on the projected route
There is no rise or depression that may
not be easily overcome; nothing in the
soil to render labor difficult and no oc-
casion for expensive bridges and mason
~. The northern half of the route is
singulsrly level and even. The substan-
tial enquiry is, Will the project tempt
sufficient capital? On the route COM
paratiyely large subscription, together
with donation of the right of way and
its appendages, might be obtained. Blu
such contributions would be altogether
inadequate to the achievement of tn,
plan. Are there any more remote inter
ests that might be enlisted? We thin
there are. To Montpelier it is matte
Of so much importance that we think he
capital and influence would be largel
pledged. The tendency of this pla
would be to work diversion of the lin
of the Central road so as to bring ths
line directly upon her skirt. 1t woul
open to her direct and facile communica
ton with much the fairest and best ayr
cultural portions of the State.
This being done, Portland would sc
an indispensable necessity for a branc
of their road from Island Pond, di
lance of twenty miles or thereabout
down the valley of the Clyde River
the head of the lake; thus giving
Portland communication with the who
interior of Vermont, and affording her
much shorter, cheaper, and more expeC
tioas transit to and from the Weste
States than she now has. Consultil
their own advantage then, may it not
reasonably calculated hat Portlan
Montpelier, and the interests identif
with the Central, Vermont and CanaC
and Ogdensburgh railways, will come
the aid of local interests with strong a
sufficient support? 1t seems to US thai
may. The project is vastly more hoI
full than the extension of the Passump
road was three years ago, and more pro
Using for dividends than it is now.
