A meeting ii tAe Gorao2rators of the She
 pang Valley Railroad and others interest
 ed therein, was held at the house of T. H
 Woodruff, on Friday, the aOth ult. All the towns on the route were represented. II appeared from the discussion, which was full and interesting, that the road can be built if the right of way be given, and each town will take it's share of stock. A committee was appointed in each town to ascertain the feeling in regard to it, and present the facts of the case. It seems that this is the last and only chance we shall have of getting 8 road And now the question is, can it be built without laying too heavy burden on us, and will not the increased facilities for business and conse- quent rise of property pay the expense and leave 3 surplus on hand? What is the general history of railroads in this respect? A question requiring mature deliberation, and one regarding which,a judici ious con. clusion will inure to the benefit of all con cerned. W.

TAXATION OF TOWNS FOR PUBLIC IMPROVE
 MENTS CONSIDERED.

AA0 0uePauS Vauey Ha1lr Oad,
 TAXATION OF TOWNS FOR PUBLIC IMPROVE MENTs CONSIDERED.
 The partial legislation of our State, which should be made general in its appl- cation permitting towns to subscribe, in their corporate capacity, for the capital | stocks of certain Railroads in which they are interested, has commended itself to the judgment of the people of every town to which the question has been submitted, with single exception where its action was controlled by conflicting railway inter- ests,-all towns. with that single exception having, by large majority. voted to sub scribe for the stock of such roads to the extent authorized by law.
 As some misapprehension exists in ref erence to the effect of taxation for such purposes, on the present holders, property, it is proper to make the following explana- tory statement:
 In case the future earnings of this Road should prove equal to the average earn ings of the Roads of this State, which is fully assured of unequalled manufacturing facilities, cheapness of construction, and good connections can guarantee such re- suits, this road would provide for it's inter- est account thereby, securing,a as gratuity, all the incidental benefits growing out of its construction-cheap freights. increased value of existing property, and the access sion of capital from abroad for the devel- opement of the resources of the valley.
 Should the road. unlike other roads of the State, similarly located, prove unable to earn the whole or any portion of its in- terest it may be conclusively shown that still the tax on the dollar in the several towns accommodated by it cannot be in- creased.
 If the road could earn nothing for it's share holders and no additional value should attach to the property along it's line from its development of great water pow CT, and mineral districts, otherwise almost valuless, and if no capital from abroad should be secured for manufacturing or mining purposes, the tax on the property of the several towns would be increased about one-ffth. On the other hand, should their Grand Lists be, from these combined causes, increased one-ffth the tax on the dollar would remain the same.
 No one familiar with the business effect of railways can point to single road open ed in this country but has increased prop erty valuation of the towns along it's route much more than one-fffth.
 Illustrative of this, the following tabular statement taken from the State Register shows the grand lists of the several towns of the Naugatuck Valley for 1S46, two years previous to the opening of the Naugatuck Railroad, and the lists of the towns along the proposed Shepaug Valley Railroad for the same year, as compared with their re- spective lists for 1852:
