cut, the place being at the time closed

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 81, 1858.
The Neuc Year.

Another year of hope and fear, of JOY
and sorrow, is fast drawing to close,
and we are again upon the threshold Of
a new one. Tho ugh the year that is
closing its doors upon us has been short.
vet many and great are the changes
that it has brought about. Look back
YOU, who are reading these lines, and
mark the changes that have taken
place even in your circle of acquaint-
ance. Do you not, at once, call to mind
many who, one year ago, were full OF
life and hope and happiness, whose
voices rang loud with " Happy New
Year, and whose hearts beat high with
joyful anticipations of the future, who
are now dead and gone? Do you net
find that the past year has brought
about more, and greater changes than
YOU dreamt of, when twelve months
ago you welcomed it in? a year is but
little while yet what multiplicity
of care and duty ard sorrow and plea
sure are wrapped up in it!
The commencement of Il New Year Is
a peculiarly fitting period to take re-
Prospective glance. 1t is ut this time
that we should carefully examine oul
past lives to see wherein we have erred
and faltered in our duty that we may be
better prepared to surmount the oo-
stacles which may beset us in our lie
Journey. No one of us will fail to find
some misdeed, some misstep in the past,
which our earnest endeavOr should be
to remedy in the future.
We each and all are looking to the
wear on which we:are entering with va
ried emotions of hope and joy. All OF
us are planning new schemes, solving
new problems whereby we may attain
to greater degree of happiness than we
have vet realized. Some will undoubt-
eddy be sadly disappointed; others will
be crowned with abundant success in all
their efforts while death will cut down,
one he. and one there, by the way
side.
We wish each and every reader of the
TRANSCRIPT happy New Year. May
the year eighteen hundred and sixty
nine crown their efforts with success,
and bring them an abundance of peace
and prosperity and happiness. That nc
sorrow may cross their pathway, or
grief af1li>t Their househ Did, is our sim
cere AMI earnest hope.

will command success. Gov. WASH
burne has written that by the 1st of
January, 1869, the Portland and Og-
densburg Company VIII have one mil
lion of dollars of stock subscribed,
which L. enough to ensure the con-
structon of n road from Portland to The
New Hampshire line at Conway, and
more than enough to secure its con-
ST. uction to the Junction of tie Ossipee
and Saco rivers. The Rutland md
Woodstock road is inviting Portland to
take either the Ossipee route or the
Portland and Rochester and Winni-
peseogee route, arguing for either line as
very much less in cost than the more
northern route, while st. Johnsbury
and the Lamollc Valley are urging the
northern route.
Now Montpelier steps in with Rut-
land and urges the cheaper route, which
will give Portland two strings to hcr
western bow if she lilles-via Wells Ri
vcr, Montpelier and the Central and
Ogdcnsburg roads, and via White River
Junction, Rutland and the New York
Central roads.

VANDERBILT's DEPoT.-The New
York correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal says that the great depot that covers
st. Johns Park is approaching compile
ton. 1t occupies four acres i'll the heart
of the city, and is said to be the largest
railroad depot in the world. The act OF
Legislature authorizing the sale of the
park made the consent of Trinity Church
a condition in the sale. Trinity de-
manded $4OO, 900 before her approval
could be secured. The price Paid for the
land by Vanderbilt was 81 100000. Pay
ing Trinity S4OO, 900 it left 100000 TO be
distributed among the property holders
around the park. Before the sale was
made public property was very low. Re-
spectacle people had moved from the vi
entity and trade had not come in.
Houses were sold at from $1,000, SO, 600
and $4,000. Each owner of proper ty
round the park was entitled to Sl5,0uO
on each lot, to lie paid for out of the sale
of the park so the fortunate holders of
real estate got their property for almost
nothing. Besides this, the moment the
sale transpired, it fixed that location
as the great business location of the city.
Property went spinning up and doubled
almost in a day. Those that held pro-
perty that could not be rented, nor
scarcely sold, are chuckling over tEeir
good luck.
