would have excellent railroad facilities,
and those natural facilities which nature
has given us.

hand to impugn or deny the rigid ian.
partiality with which have striven to
administer your rules, has been my
earnest and daily endeavor in the years
that are now garnered with the past.
The greatest OF my official predecessors
whose memory is still enshrined in 80
many hearts and who eminently honor

during those moments Of agitation from
which no deliberative assembly is ex-

the House from being sacrificed to tenn

Never hoping to reach this high stand

great master Of his art, hoping to leave
behind him q copy not entirely up-
worthy the original.
Though death has not spared our
circle, and New York, Kentucky and
Pennsylvania have been called TO mourn
the loss of faithful Representatives, We
come to this closing hour with our ranks
thinned less than usual by paralyzing
sickness or wasting disease.
We separate after months OF the con.

era with general good will as crafty

RAILROAD MBBTING.-An enthusiastic
meeting composed Of the business men
on the line OF the Bennington & Rutland
Railroad, was held at Free Library Hall,
Bennington, yesterday, full report Of
the proceedings Of which will be found
in our paper this morning. The meet
ing was largely attended, and its object
was the consideration of measures for
the speedy construction of the connect
ing link OF road between the Harlem
and Bennington & Rutland roads. There
was but one feeling manifest in the
meeting, and that was that a railroad
connection between Bennington and
points West and South was an actual
necessity, and that in view of the action
of the Troy and Boston Railroad Gem
pany, there appeared to be no other al
tentative than the construction OF this
road. The feeling to this end was unani.
NOUS and 1t is a foregone conclusion
shat the towns on the line Of the ag-
srieved road will, ere long, be placed in
direct communication with all points
South and West.
