New RAILROAD ARRANGEMENTs.-
1 new railroad arrangement takes effect on
the Sullivan, Vermont Valley and the 9TH
er railroads south, on Monday next. A
night train is TO be put on. which will leave
Bellows Falls, at 3 O'Clock in the morning,
for New York, and will arrive at this place
at 10 o'clock at night. 1t is an express
train, and will not stop at the intermediate
stations between here and Bratteboro, ex-
cept 10 leave passengers. Passengers going
from this place TO Brattleboro, can leave in
the morning or afternoon train, and return
at noon or 6 o'clock, or if they choose, can
spend the evening at Brattleboro and still
have an opportunity 10 return, arriving here
at 10 o'clock 1t is an experiment, we be-
lieve, and if found TO pay, will become
permanent arrangement. We are glad to
say that our usual day trains will not be in
terfcred with By this new arrangement, and
will continue as heretofore.
BooKs.-M essrs. johnson & Rabbit
have this week received quite an assert
ment of new books, being mainly those of
late publication and of interest. 1t is prob
ably the largest selection of modern books
ever offered in this place at once, and as it
is the first time our people have had such
opportunities, We hope they will improve
them. and thus encourage a literary trade
among US. We have this week received
several books from publishers, and kept for
sale by Messrs. Johnson & Babbitt, which
will receive the usual notice in due time.
They were not received in season for this
week.

Whereupon one-half Of their quota came
forward and volunteered on the spot two
thirds of their quota bad been raised Tues

filled their entire quota of twenty men.
Some of the farmers declared that as they
were receiving for the products of their

now was the time to pay the soldiers, and
the town seemed to take this view of it, and

VILLAGE ScHooLs.-Our village Schools
commence their winter term next Monday,
with the old board of teachers, except Mr..
Flanders whose health did not permit him
to close the last term, and on account of
which he has decided not 10 attempt the
winter term. Miss Flanders will continue
as assistant in the High School, and Miss
Wightman and Miss Tenney will have
charge of the intermediate and primary re-
spectively, as before. The new principal
of the High School is Mr.. NJ. s. Webb, Of
Cambridge, Mass. who comes among US
with high commentators as 10 qualifca
tons as teacher, and if parents and guar
dams give the proper cooperation, there
seems TO be no reason why the winter term
will not be one of success and profit. With
out this cooperation the best teachers must
fail, and therefore let US visit the School
this winter frequently, and show to both
teachers and pupils that we really do feel
an interest in their progress and success.

MeSsrs. Editors:-The abolition support
ers Of the Union ticket assembled here about
a bakers dozen" strong, on Wednesday
evening, the 9TH inst, in vacant house
near Wildwood Station, As democrats were
not admitted, the undersigned is not able to
give you the proceedings of the meeting, but
as it was composed of the intelligence of the
abolition party in this neighborhood l may
presume that resolutions were passed com,
plimenting Abe Lincoln and his administra-
ton, and denouncing the democracy as re-
sponsibe for the distracted condition of our
country.
1t is strange that men protesting to be
American freemen are afraid to hold their
political meetings publicly, and let their
fellow citizens see and hear what they have
to say in behalf Of their negro-loving party
Democrats are never afraid to hold their
meetings publicly, and are glad to have
everybody come to them, and learn what
their principles are. Was this secret ar

mistres, undertakes to pass upon what is
"loyalty" or not. The most ignorant, con
temptible ass among the whole tribe Of
appointees, deems it bis right to pass upon
the most sacred privileges of the citizen,-
to set as Judge upon the right of freemen.
That this is not sanctioned by any princi'
pie of patriotism or public necessity, is
shown from the fact that we of California
are two thousand miles from any hostile
force; thot the intense loyalty of California
is the boast Of the Administration; that
papers permitted freely to circulate through
the mails in the Atlantic States are prohibit
ed in this; that these prohibited papers con-
tain no facts of any worth to the Conteder-
ates, but simply arguments upon public pol
icy addressed to the judgment of the people.
In conclusion, these post roads and post
offices the people pay for the mails are car
ried at their expense; the laws governing
the whole business in all respects are made by
their representatives; they are their post roads,
their post offices, their mails their letters and
their newspapers, and we hope they will
vindicate their rights against this insolence
and petty ;yrany. Demand your papers
fellow citizens. Go to the Pos; Office, ten
der your postage money, and demand your
papernot as a petitioner seeking favor,
but as man knowing his rights dares
maintain them. Place yourselves in posi-
ton to give these creatures dressed in a
little brief authority" a life long lesson
for their Fantastic tricks" Go every week
aud demand your rights. You have the
right, the law, and justice on your side, and
the day will come, if it is not with US now,
when these will be respected, and you vindi-
Gated.

CARE OF FURs AND WooLENs.-We are
pretty we'll satisfied from long experience,
that there is no efficacy in camphor, tobac-
CO. drugs, or even cedar closets, in protect
ing furs and woolen stutfs against the moth.
They only lull us into fancied security, to
wake and find our most valued furs and
cloths ruined by these mischeveous little I'M
sects. To preserve these articles with entire
safety, shake them thoroughly in order that
any moth already in them may be dislodged;
then place them in close cotton or linen bags
as tightly as possible to exclude the miller,
and there will be no danger from the moth.
There need be no special place to hang the
bags in-garret wardrobe, or closet, is all
the same. Old newspapers entirely without
fractures, answer just as we'll in which to
wrap furs and wooens but they mus. be so
pasted together as to leave no place for the

"GoNE FROM OUR GAzE."-Little John
Conness, the ruler and director Of the
Abolition party in California, not by the
consent of the old wheel horses, Stanford,
Phelp e. Co., but by the ingenuity ofhis own
tactics-after being made U. S. Senator,
and then fixing up State ticket to his own
satisfaction, and to the disgust of the old
party managers, has betaken himself to the
political Mecca Washington, d. C.) to look
after the fat Federal places for this State,
and left his disconsoate party to work out
their own salvation at the coming State
election. Old liners think this is ad-
ding insult to injury-by first forcing
upon them ticket they did not want,
and then leaving them alone to work out
its success. They cannot help thinking that
John has taken them upon a hunt for "snipe"
and left them "to hold the bag"

"Never having heard of Cravens of Placer,
who was nominated for Controller, we cannot
speak advisedly of his antecedents. But, rs the
Union Democracy of Placer did not go into the
fusion movement. and were not represented in
the Convention. we take it for granted that Cra-
vens has heretofore acted with the Breckenridge
wing of the Democracy Sac. Union,
1t is not strange that Mr.. Cravens is not
known to the editor of the Union. He ney-
er edited paper in the South advocating
slavery because it was popular, or paper
in California denouncing all persons of south
ern birth, because that excited public clamor.
Indeed we have never heard Of him doing
anything ridiculous and mean in which to
obtain the favorable notice and special favor
of that editor. We know that he is one of the
pioneer settlers of California; a,--most if not
all of which time he has been resident of
Placer county. At home he is esteemed, a
man of intelligence, excellent business quali'
ties, unswervingly honest and truthful, and
as illustrating through life, every element OF
the true gentleman. In politics he was a
Wing but recently has acted with the Doug
las branch of the Democracy. OF the
delegates from this county, nine of the eleven
votes we're heretofore Union democrats and
Mr.. Cravens' claims as a candidate was urg-
ed by the entire delegation because of pecu.
liar fitness for the place, aud not because he
bad voted for Breckenridge in 1850, or with
any desire to secure in bis favor the approl
baton Of The editor Of the Sac. Union.
