having from necessity brought their bust
ness into closer shape, the pressure for

A continuance of the present system of
contra ction, recently adopted by operators
in produce, and by business men generally,
may soon result in greater ease in the
money market, and prove effective in Civ

ed 10 make satisfactory basis upda v men
10 issue bonds for the completion OF 9h''
part Of the line u the road
There Is now m use upon the line 81
mad between ogdenshurg aud Boston,
Via Lowell, las given ia report made IN
Nov. last, by one uf the roads forming u
part Of the line-336l freight ears, being
an average Of \ cars to the mile Of road,
Large as his'number is, il is being added
10, the Vermont Central having recently
issued additional equipment bonds TO the
amount Of 100000, her total issue at
these is now Sl,00,O0O,) and the ogdens'
burg road has Just issued her equipment
bonds for $4,000, TO further aid in
cquipping this line,
The returns made by other roads having
western connection by the southerly
line show larger average per mile OF
freight ears than the above, The Fitch
burg, which connects with the Vermont
Central and via Rutland with the New
York Central, shows an average of IL h
the mile the Boston and Albany total
Of :, il3 for 200 miles, an average Of over
10 TO the mile, To which additions arr
being made. Other roads make CORES,
ponding returns. Our own experience
with the Grand Trunk teaches us what
We must expect from roads insufiieiently
equipped TO perform this part Of the ser
vice. The number Of engines upon the
several lines Of road, varies from one q
every mile Of road TO one for every foui
miles Of road were speaking Of road
which have western oonneotions-and the
baggage and passenger cars exceed IN
number the engines upon the road. Al
the present time the cost of rolling stock
is nearly as follows: For engines SlO,OOI
TO $4,000, according as they are wanted
for grade and service; for baggage carr
from $4,000 upwards according TO require
ment; for passenger ears, $500 and up
wards, according to style and finish, and
for S-wheel box freight cars, strong and
serviccable, 800 to $l,i00. Having the
length Of road to be equipped, and the
service expected from it, the cost OF
equipping it may be nearly asoertaincd.
BY looking at the map il will be found
that the Vermont and Canada ON the
west, the Passumpsic on the east, and the
Vermont Central on the south, leaves but
small district, comparatively, that would
be tributary to the Lamoille Valley Rail
road. From the facts above set forth We
are led TO infer, that this district is
neither rich or populous nor presents a
large supporting power to the road.

MURDERS AT ALBANY.-Henry Veis-
chel, an inmate of the Albany Soldiers
Home, was badly beaten by two young
men at saloon on Madison avenue, near
the Parade Ground, Tuesday evening.
He died from his injuries Thursday. Up
on examination it was found that his ribs
were broken and his head and body badly
bruised. He was found by officer Wish
lying upon stoop, and kindly cared for.
Coroner Mulligan took charge of the body,
and will hold an inquest at the Fourth
District Station House. The perpetrators
of the outrage are still at large.
Last Thursday night policeman at
tached to the Third Precinct, Albany, I'M
dertook to arrest Patrick Fitzgerald, a
butcher, for some offense. The prisoner
resisted the arrest. Policeman called for
assistance. Four other officers responded.
Prisoner resisted and fought all. The re-
suit was that the officers attacked Fitz-
gerald with their clubs, and beat him in
most terrible manner, and from the eff
fects of which he may die. DR.. Armsby
was sent for, who dressed his wounds at
the station house. He presented an awful
sight, having bled profusely from several
deep gashes on his head and forehead.
Fitzgerald resides in the Bowery.

VERMONT IN CONGRESS Nor
rill says the whisky tax cannot be col

And in that case, Senator can you give
US any estimate Of what revenue whisky
will yield?
Mr.. Edmunds, in the Senate, and Mr..
Jenekes, in the House, both members of
the Joint Committee on Retrenchment.
state that the report made to the House
by Mr.. Van Wyck, of New York, pur-
porting to be the report OF that Commit
tee, was the unauthorized work of that
gentleman alone.
Senator Morrill, of Vermont, who was
the chairman of the House Committee on
ways and means through the war, declined
to accept the estimates of Senator Sher-
man, which show that at the end Of the
next financial year there will be a def
cheney of sixteen millions of dollars, even
though the whisky tax produces fifty
millions, and the income tax receipts are
not decreased. Said Mr. Morrill,:
81 desire that Senator's shall examine
this question for themselves. | do not
ask them to take my estimate; but l say
this, and | am willing to have it put upon
record, that the deficit instead of being
sixteen millions, will be more than forty
million dollars. Is not that enough. II
we shall pass the bill as reported, the
deficit will be more than forty million
dollars for the year to come, in my iudg-
ment.'

ing extract from letter published in the
Montpelier Journal
LIVERPOOL, Feb. t.
| cannot convey my sensation when we
came in sight Of land. l had been sick
| for eight days. The water was infinite
an endless waste of disturbance and mis-
cry, where hnd, anything solid and Sc.
cure, seemed impossible. But on Monday
noon, the high, bold coast of Ireland came
in sight it seemed to steady the ship, to
relieve my disquiet and fill me with
strength.
l thought how solid, how blessed, how
beautiful must seem the glorious realities
of Heaven to the poor, sick, lost voyager,
when he makes his port at last, and the
great head1ands Of eternity fill him with

streets are finely paved, but narrow and
crooked, and heavy clouds of coal dust
settle down on them all the time. / no.

more reasonable than with us. Oranges
are penny apiece, gloves three to six

the landlady. She or her daughter is at
all times at the Office, ready teRnswer

or guide your steps An English hotel,
If this is model, is not noisy menag-

where it seems to be the duty and the
pleasure of all attendants to make the
guests easy and comfortable.
The table is in the coffee-room, where
we can obtain what we wish at stipulated
prices. We have no new bread, no hot
rolls, but well-cooked meats and vegeta-
bles, and what they call pasties and jel-
lies. The rooms are tended by wait
ress, with servants under her. She ans
