Of the town to $4,000 in stock and Sl5, 900 in
bonds, instead Of one-half each, as heretofore vot
ed During the meeting Mr.. fairbanks stated
TINT the sum Of $4,000 per mile THE amount

should be begun) had been secured from Port
land to West Danvillc, and that it would doubt

United states Court. in Vermont.

We perceive that the Rutland and Wind
Sor journals are quite sensitive at the establish
ment Of new term of the United States court at
urlington--presuming il to be but the entering
wedge TO an ultimate removal Of the courts from
kutand and Windsor Now 50 far from this sus-
prion being well founded, We Judge that this adj
ditlnnl term at Burlington will do very much 10
secure the continuance of those courts where they
are now 'cated 1t is well known that the great
mass Of business in those courts comes from the
Northerly section of the State, on the frontier,
where nearly NIL revenue eases arise, and on the
Lake. which has so much commerce with Canada
and New York Now If the courts were to be es-
tablished aueH, quite probably neither Rutland
or Windsor would have one of the terms. But
the courts We're fixed at those pnces at an early
day, when the population was mainly in the South
end Of the State, and the business also and the
government has built expensive Court Houses at
both places, and cannot afford to abandon them
and build others. Now the term at Windsor is
about the first Of August, and TINT at Rutland
about the first Of Oe.ober-only about two months
apart-whle during the remaining ten months
there is no term. BY fixing term at Burlington
IN February, it avoids 50 long vacation and
gives session in the region where most of the
business originates, and where the Judge resides.
The bill expressly provides we understand, that
no money shall be expended to build Court
House at Burlington, but contcmplates that the
town itself shall furnish accommodations
Now If the business Of the Northern part of
the State can be accommodated by term at
Burlington, the rapidly growing feeling in favor
of removal of the Courts from Rutland and
Windsor will be Rllayed whereas, without it.
there is good reason to upprehend that ere long
an entire removal would be effected We submit
whether it is not good policy for Rutland and
Windsor to quietly submit to the loss Of pur-
ton Of the business which has hitherto been forced
into the old channels, rather than run the risk of
losing the whole.

Portland 4 Rutland Railroads.&c. Refused
by the City OF Portland.

a dispatch from Portland, dated yesterday,
says that at a special meeting of the City Council
Tuesday evening, the petition Of citizens and tax
payers and Others was presented, asking the city
government 10 favor the passage of an act by the
Legislature, granting authority to this city to aid
in the construction Of the Portland and Rutland
Railroad on similar terms gnnted to other roads
Gen. Samuel j. Anderson, President of the Port
land and Ogdensburg Railroad being present.
was called upon TO address the Council. Gen.
Anderson read the proposed bill asked for By the
Portland and Rutland Company in amendment To
their present charter, and spoke against it. as il
desires authority for an extension of their line to
tide water here, empowering them to build
wharVes and other property, and also authorizes
corpomtions in and out Of the city 10 take stock
therein Gen. Andersen objected, as the origi-
nal understanding was that the Portland and Rut-
land road should connect with some road already
built or to be built at some point on the west bank
Of The Saco river, at the north side of the town
Of standish. Another competing line to tide
water would be injurious 10 those already in pro-
gress and also to the interest Of the city, as Port
land is a stakeholder in the Ogdensburg and a
bondholder in the Rochester road. i'll. Former
Esq., responded in behalf of the Rutland Road.
After some discussion the following resolution
was unanimously passed

The Lebanon SnrIngs Railroad.

a late number Of the Troy Budgef speaks a.
follows of the results of the controversy between
the Troy x Boston Railroad and Mr. Park
Several Of the owy wise men Of Troy prophe-
cied that Bennington's Park would be ruined il
his attempt to build the Lebanon Springs Rail
road. They prophecied that 1t never would b,
built They prophecied that the towns bonded
in Vermont would be compelled to pay the bonds
and that this would come near bankrupting som,
Of such towns. All these croakers proved to b,
blind guides and false prophets. The Lebanon
Springs Railroad has been built, and will soor
commence running through trains, making clos
connections, between New York and Montreal
Parties have come forward and offered to take NJ
all the town bonds issued for the construction Of
the road, taking therefor the securities which the
towns held against the railroad We believe in
fact this has been done, and that the town bonds
have been cancelled. And Troy, by following the
lead Of its blind guides, in cutting OFF its railroad
connections with Vermont has lost its oldest and
best customers, and has aided to construct rival
road that will serve as cutoff against Troy,
sending the current of travel that formerly came
70 and through Troy, in other directions The
connection now afforded by Troy 4 Boston Rail
road is utterly unworthy of the name of a railroad
connection. Ii is a one-horse train once day,
each way TO and from the Vermont line, where
passengers are compelled to change cars, and are
subject to other petty annOyances. Our Troy
railroad magnates seem blindly determined 10
force the building of another railroad which shall
act as a cutoff to Troy travel. When the blind
lead the blind they will both fall into the ditch
together.
