OgdcHSbUFJ Railroad.

We copy a portion OF letter writ
len short time since. by Bostonian
in Paris 10 one OF his .'Down East"
friends. Ii WAS not designed for publi-
cation, but the allusion to our new rail
road project and some of the parties con-
nected with it, seems to Justify lis in>er-
ton in our columns:
You ask me if Maine is present in force,
at the Great Exposition. Delegates
from the Pine Tree State" are every
where. You meet them at the cttes, and
on the BoulevardS, at the theatre and
opera YOU see them driving fast horses
IN the Bois de Boulogne, and strolling
le,urely along the garden of the fuller

en- Yankees, and of that dozen Maine
will have her share. That new railroad
PROJECT from Portland to the West i. one
OF the chief topics OF conversation when
The PorianlerS gather for talk. When
asked what the BostonianS think of the
new railroad, which is to draw so much
t-adc away from the 'IIub," | tell them
that Bostonians think the railroad will
be built, and that Boston thinks the fu-
ture has business enough for the east
and west to employ all the single and
double track lines that capital will ever
build. Portland and Boston will both

Portland to Ogdensburg, and with such
men rs the Browns and Washburns.
and Fairbanks and Smiths enlisted in it,
the rails must 90 down which shall unite
the two cities.
Speaking Of the Messrs. Fairbanks re-
minds me of their generous contribution
TO the Paris Fair,-and no party who
examined the other contributions can
question Tor moment the fairness of the
award which gave them the highest pre-
miumS for their standard scales. For
their Track Scale alone, which was in
class by itself, they received a bronze
medal, while on all their other scales.
they received silver medal. a prize
awarded to no other competitor. If this
new railroad in which the Messrs. Fair
banks are engaged, partakes of the sue
cess which has attended their business.
it will be dit7deud-yoad from the out
set.

Smith sympathized with Senator FesSen-
den in his opposition TO the PROJECT as
presented 10 congress, but WIS glad to
hear that there was fair prospect for
IFS favorable consideration if properly
presented at the next session. The most
serious obstacle to this great work has
been i'll the illiberal policy of the State
of New York. The influence of Buffalo
and of the officials at Albany charged
with the interests Of the Erie canal. had
always been thrown against the Niagara
canal. 1t was an illiberal and unSister-
" policy. 1t had in it the spirit of sece>-
sion and disunion. ANY Stale which
says TO It's neighborS, You must not
cross US there, but you may here where
we can make most money ont of you"
is so far out OF the Union In Oswego
thew were just now interested in a new
route 10 New York. 1t was not needed
thew had two already, and New York
could build the third when it was want
ed bnt a wear ago the citizens OF Oswe-
90 voted 5000. 600 to build that need
less road Mr. Smith had had several
interviews with leading gentlemen and
endeavored to persuade them to interest
themselves in the Portland project. 1t
was found that the vote was by the stat
utes, permissive not obligatory, and he
vet hoped and had reason to believe that
the City Council would not act upon it :;
that the CITY would bond herself instead
for 800, 600 and raise 100000 by
private subscription for the construc-
ton of the Ontario Lake Shore road.
Hon. J B. Brown followed with some
remarks, pointing ont the Importance of
the Niagara Canal TO the proposed rail-
road and Hon. John Lynch called at
tcntion TO the fact, that the opposition to
the canal had no. come. rs had been ill.,
limated by some Oswego gentlemen.
chiefly from the senator from Maine.
but from New York, both the New York
Senators voted against it. For himself.
he was ready 10 vote for it ut any
time.

The Election.

The election 10 Vermont last Tuesday.
was unusually quiet. and small vote was
cast ; consequently the Republican ma
.lority will be less than it has sometimes
been. Notwithstanding the lack of in
terest to draw out the voters it is estl-
mated that the Republican State ticket
is elected by about 10000 majority.
The Senate is unanimously Republican,
and the House is near enough so for all
practical purposes. Below we give the
vote Of Caledonia County, which sends
only one democrat to the Legislature.
Notwithstanding the lack of interest
generally through the state, there were
sections where local questions entered
into the canvass, as in this town. Our
readers are aware that in Remington
county they are endeavorlng to build a
railroad with the help of town aid, as
in this county They have an anti-rail-
road party there as here. There they
went SO far as to put all anti-railroad
county ticket in the field The remon-
,trantS getting exceedingly stirred up,
they started a newspaper, the two local
papers both happening to favor public
improvements. The railroad men OF
Bennington put up for representative
Hon. L. w. Park. and the opponents
run Hon. A. b. Gardiner After the
election was declared in this town, des-
patch was sent Mr.. Park announcing
the election of Mr.. Ross. the railroad
candidate, by 2S5 majority. A reply
was received Of which the following is
copy:
Bloomington greets st. Johnsbury.
We elected our railroad candidate by PA
majority, and elected our whole railroad
county ticket"
The towns each side of us-Danville
and Concord, send good friends of the
rallroad-IIon. David IIibbard, a man
