vrpMoNr AND CANADA RAILROAD.

Stockholders in this heretofore unfortunate
Roilroad will be glad to be informed that the de-
cree of the Chancellor's Court of Vermont has
been made confirming the lease to the Vermont
Central Railroad in all its parts, and fixing the
cost of construction at Sl,31S,500, ordering
the road to remain in the hands of the present
Receivers. and the income to be paid in liqui-
,aion Of rents The amount fixed by the Court
as the cost of construction is the sum on which
rent was paid for some years by the Vermont
Central Railroad, and subsequently by the trus-
tees of the bondholders, so that the decree of
the Court secures TO the Vermont & Canada
stockholders payment of the whole amount of
back rents, with interest thereon before any pay
ment is made on the LIST mortgage bonds of the
Vermont Central Railroad. The construction
account, as now fixed, is the same as claimed by
the Canada Company, excepting an amount OF
S32. 100 of stock, issued to the Vermont Cen
trail road in July, 1859, to settle a balance due
the latter for a much larger sum claimed Of the
Vermont & Canada.
This case has been in Court sir yea,S-he
proceedings in Chanccry, for the possession Of
the property, under the 8 per cent lease of 1850
to the Vermont Central having been commenced
as long ago as 1Sj6--and one of the best fea-
lures of the decision is that it is final. The
Directors of the Vermont & Canada road will
now be enabled to declare dividend of per
cent for August /, if deemed advisable, and
hereafter to be continued regularly on the first
dav of June and December Within two years
this stock has sold at S25 per share. 1t is now
quoted at 81, and under this decision it should
20 to par. The amount claimed for "Rent and
interest thereon" as due December 1860, was
2S4S,046. The road has recently been extend
ded in Burlington at a cost of some S3OO.O0O,
which was paid by the Vermont Central Re
cevers out of the back rents due the Canada.
1t is proposed at some future time within year
to issue stock for this amount in the shape of
dividend to the Vermont & Canada shareholders
and the ba ancc Of the back dues-something
over 100000, will probably be issued in at per
cent scrip, running ten years or more The net
earnings of the Vermot Central and Canada
roads will be ample to pay the rent and interest
on the proposed scrip, with something over.
The favorable termination of this suit cannot
fail to be highly satisfactory to the Vermont 4
Canada shareholders, who have long waited for
their Just dues, and at one time must have fear
ed that their property would become a dead
loss.-BOSton Courier.
