RAILROAD CoNFERENCE.-O. s. Fowler, L.
w Fling, Samuel *. Mason, Dana Woodman,
George 7. Crawford, Albert Blake, William
Dyer, William P Gordon, Israel D. Plummer,
Augustus Burpee, j. S. Piper, f. C. Wells and
Samuel Emerson, representing some OF the
towns in New Hampshire, arrived in this city
Tuesday evening, and yesterday had an ir-
terview with some of our merchants at the
Board Of Trade room, where they presented
their views as to the proposed route from Port
land to Rutland which will cross New lamp
shire. They regard the best and shortest
route to be from Alton Bay, along the South
shore of the Lake, through Meredith Centre
and Bristol TO Danbury. They say it will lie
an easy route to build, more level, and viii
bring more business to Portland than more
Northern route would. This route would con-
meet with the Portland & Rochester road via
Alton Bay.
Remarks were made by Hon. John B.
Brown, who, while he thought the great
interest of Portland was in the proposed
Northern route to the West, via Ogdensburg,
he citizen of Portland was pleased to
meet the gentlemen from New Hampshire and
tAOHdhsSC views On lueflts VI OtileE
and seetioas looking for an outlet at Portland.
Messrs. Allen Haines, VIM. Moulton, j. L.
Farmer, John Neal and others addressed the
meeting.
On motion of Mr.. Neal, Voted that the sub
ject of the proposed route to the West, via
Bristol, Sc, be referred to the General Com
mittee of Conference appointed at Railroad
meeting held in this city Feb. 9th, OF which
| Hon. John A. Poor is chairman.
1t was further suggested by Mr.. Neal that a
preliminary survey Of the proposed route
would afford a more ineligible basis of action
| for the Committee.
! In reply, Hon. Judge Fowler of Bristol N
| H., said that he would take the responsibility
to promise such survey at the earliest day pos
| sible.
Mr.. Rich offered the following, which was
unanimously adopted
| ReS0tyed, That we as citizens of Portland are
much gratified to have met so large and intel
! ligent delegation of the prominent citizen:
and business men of Bristol, Meredith, Lake
Village and New Hampton, N. h. and that VIZ
| not only cordially welcome them to our city
at this time, but shall heartily cooperate will
| them in any feasible railroad enterprise thai
| may hereafter commend itself to our common
| interest upon due investigation.
| After which the meeting adjourned.

Dry Your Fruit.

We urge upon our people to dry
all the fruit they can. The fruit
crop in the northwestern States
is very short, and north of Mary
land it is almost total failure
If the large quantities Of peaches
and apples that are now suffered
to remain and rot in our orchards
could only be gathered and dried,
the revenue it would bring to Lin
coin county would be- immense
The following is a cheap and sim
Ilesmode of constructing kilps fol
drying fruit:
"Build the kilns with brick OF
rocks, s by lift, and say p or :
feet high. Arch the top just saf
fcient to be self sustaining, ane
then plaster over with mud
Make eyes similar to those IL
brick kilns, with a flue at one end
Cover the whole with shelter.

A Butcher comes to Grief.

On Monday night last week a
butcher residing near the corner
of Tenth and Market Streets, St.
Louis, was charged with having
behaved improperly with his board
ing lady, her husband having OBJ
served her coming from the butch
er's room under suspicious cireum-
stances. He did not draw a re-
volver and shoot him on the spot,
but smothered his griet until
morning, when he quietly drew
from. the bank $500 In money,
and taking one of his children,
left the city for parts unknown
The wife, thus deprived of her
liege lord, as quickly disposed of
her furniture and took her depart
ure. The epidemic next attacked
the butcher, who sold out his stand
and left, no one knew where; nor
is it known positively whether,
having slaughtered his business,
he will join the grass widow and
the twain live in a state of happi-
ness. AS it is, the family circle
may be considered as pretty well
broken up.

Two Negroes Killed.

FROM the hnoxvllie Press and ueraid
On Tuesday last, two negro
men were shot and killed in Haw-
kins county, East Tennessee, by I.
Willis, who killed the wretch Size
more some twelve months ago
1t appears that these two negroes
went to the house of Mr.. Willis du-
ring his absence and demanded
something to eat of his mother and
sisters. Their demands were re-
fused, when they made their way
in, against the protest of the ladies,
and proceeded to help themselves
to what they wanted. When Will
lis came. home they were sitting at
the tacle enjoying themselves,
having driven away the ladies by
certain characteristic and brutally
offensive remarks. A few words
sufficed to explain the situation,
when he passed into another apart
ment, procured double barrelled
shot gun, and returned to the di-
ming room where the negroes were
feasting. One started up, and be-
ling shot, fell dead across the table;
the other ran out, and was killed
when barely across the threshold,

g> There are certain rules
that should govern our conduct,
and as we have very heavy taxes
to pay, and provisions are high to
those who have to buy, it is neces-
sary that we should economist orr
means, and one of the best ways
to do that is to buy as few goods
as is compatible with the comfort
and standing of oursfamily. But
if you do have to buy, go to the N.
w. corner of the Square, where
there is a fresh stock just opened
and offered at the lowest prices by

49, The first annual Fair o

Ms The FIRST annual Fair of
the Rutherford County Agricultu-
raj Society commences at Muir
freesboro, on Tuesday, Oct. 18th.
This fact we learn from its poster,
aoAich scds printed IN Cincinnati!
There has long been a popular
doctrine of supporting home en-
terprise," and the Fairs of Tennes-
see are organized for the sole par
pose of putting this doctrine in
practice. Yet the Rutherford
Society, with a printing Office at
its very door, sends its work to a
stranger, to one who has no inter-
est at all in the objects that the
Society says it wishes to accom-
plish. 1t is an old saying, that a
man or company that refuses to
support its neighbors does not de-
serve its neighbors' support. We
offer it to the consideration of our
Rutherford friends.

No. The Pulaski Citizen says
that on Tuesday, 18th inst, ''a
party of intoxicated men, unknown
to us, but said to be from Lincoln
county," made ga wanton and NAL
icious attempt at murder" near
Pulaski. They shot one negro
boy "of good department" twice,
and beat and cut another, follow
ing him into his own yard to do
so. The Citizen concludes:
Measures have been set on foot
to bring the offenders to justice,
aud there is a universal determin-
alton in this community to aid the
civil authorities in executing the
law. Such high handed and un-
provoked outrages will not be suf-
cred to go unpunished in this COM
munity.
