The letter Of a Bennington correspcu lent, in
another column. gives an interesting, ami what
WIS doubtless intended for perfectly fair state
men, Of the peculiar couiiu,u Of affairs, per-
sars', railroad ard political, in that county.
We suspect. however, that the writer's INFORM
atiu came 1-,stiy from one side Of the c.utro-
vcrsy.
1t l. not strange that the dissatisfaction which
prevails so largely throughout Western Vermont
over the failure Of the expected through lie le-
tween New YORK and Montreal by the Lebanon
route, should be largely intensified and hni
strongest expression in BENIN gton County. 1t
i perhaps not very surprising that in some cases
the feeling finds expression ia denuuciation OF
the gentleman who had most TO DO with the in
oep'ion and carrying to completion Of the Leba-
non and Harlem connection. Popular excite
ment is apt to be unreasoning, in such cases,
AMI often consequently unreasonable. The private
and personal jealouses concerned we know nc
thing and ere nothing about but We shall be
much surprised if il turns out that Mr. Park
has lost any great number Of his friends il Ben
Hiugton County, or has given ;hem any occasion
to " go back 50 on him If he hal heer willing
to sell out the people f Bennington County, he
could have done SO four years ago, and made
l'tu-y OF money and saved himself much trouble
10y The .neens. That now, when the care Of the
enterprise was telling heavily Oh his health, he
should iele.c himself ny dispos'ago IF good
share + his ownership, is not surprising and
that be should sell in a way to connect the road
mos, closely with the Harlem road, or which it
depends FIR its lower connections, AM the friend
ship ct which is SO valuable, seems to us both
natural and desirable
The through connection has been for a time
defeated by the combinations agaius, it but We
are confident that it must come in time, and We
trust the time viii be soon Til it IS plain it is
not coming, and also clear where the fault lie
We should. if or advice were as. cd, counsel the
people of Bennington County to act with care,
and not throw overheard any Of their influential
and powerful friends
