"The Excursion"

The Railroad excursion and Sabbath
School celebration, Of which notice has
been given in the Standard for several
weeks past, proved more successful than
was anticipated by many, and just about
as good as was calculated for by the Com
mittee having the care of it. The day
was all any one could desire. At an ear
Iy hour the people began to gather at the
depot in Barton. While we were en-
gagged in getting ready for start the
Craftsbury Band" discoursed excellent
music to keep the multitude in good spir-
its. At seven o'clock we started on our
journey, with about 1000 on board, and
passed safely along drawn by the noble
steed "A. Gilmore"
We called at Burke, Lyndon, St Johns
bury and Barnet, and from each place
made large accessions to our ranks till we
numbered nearly 40 cars and over 1000

ourselves at the Bradford depot, when
Rev. II. p. Gushing and host of asso-

were in waiting TO escort us TO the grove
prepared for us. Here we found the
Work of large and warm hearts adding to
the beauty Of the "Pine Grove" As
we entered we beheld first our " Nations
Flag" then in letters so plain that all
could read " Welcome" was inscribed on
another banner over our pathway, while
on either side stood the Misses of the
Bradford Sabbath Schools with their lit
tie banners of Welcome" Some time
was occupied in arranging the various
delegations under their respective ban
ners. This done and we passed quickly
TO the tables where we partook Of ample
refreshments in ample time. We believe
each one had a part of basket full left.
This part of our work well done and
we receiveda summons from Rev. p. Mer.

stock paid in building the road from
White River to ST. Johnsbury. Out of
this large amount Orleans County paid
only about Sl,700 in subscription stock,
and in building the road from St. Johns
bury to Barton, including the work done
in Derby The directors have expended
about $4,000 more. The country was
TO pay one fourth the expense in building
the road from St. Johnsbuiy to the line.
The country has paid only about $780,
600, and are now in debt for money ex-
pended this side of St. Johnsbury. The
city stockholders have paid their proper
ton of the money expended, which is
about S562,500. The directors have to
raise the 100000 due from the country
subscription, and have settled with and
paid the contractor for building the road
thus far. Orleans County has paid about
$4,000, making in all about 5000,
which would build about two and half
miles of road, and the country has prob
ably saved more than 100000 in freight
since the road was built to St. Johnsbury.
There is now probably about $4,000
due from the subscribers in this county
that is good; and 100000 from the
whole country stock, after making due al
lowance for poor subscription. Who are
the delinquents? The directors are ready
TO go on with the work again, and will
