The Claremont Eagle says the work on tht
Sugar River Railroad goes on briskly, and the
greater mart of tha- grading -fsona- Ghander's
MINIS 10 within two miles of that village is
done. 1t also understands that the Rutland
Railroad Corporation are perfccting plans fol
meeting the Sugar River road at the Connec-
ticut river. The Newport argus reports that
about two-thirds of the grading between
Bradford and the Ledge is completed. Work
is also being done on every section of the
road between Coffin and Nourse's mill in that
town, about two miles east of the village, and
the Ledge, while between that town and
Claremont considerable is being DONE
There is good prospect that freight will be
carried over the road from Bradford to the
Ledge this fall.
The new route from Concord, N. II. to
Rutland, VT, is certainly secured; which.
when completed, by the addition of the link
between Rochester and Concord, will open
one of the most direct and nearest routes
from Portland to the West that can ever he
built. We were assured by the prominent
and wealthy gentlemen from the city of Con-
cord, who were here few days ago in refer
ence to matters connected with the prospects
OF the Portland, Rochester and Concord rail-
road, that if 100000 could be raised outside
OF Concord, an additional 100000 corld
be raised in Concord, which would make a
total cash subscription OF 100000.
This is deemed by a competent engineer to
De sufficient amount to build and euuip the
road in a complete manner, without mort
gage or debt. Our Concord friends have
great confidence in the success of this enter
prise, which is already backed up by cash
subscription of 100000. We are assured by
business men in that city, that the opening
OF direct route between Portland and Con-
cord will at once establish business relations
between these two cities of great mutual adj
vantage. The large and wealthy agricultural
towns of Strafford, Barnstead, Pittsfield. &C..
which are directly west of Rochester, N. H.,
which would be opened by this route for the
first time for railroad facilities. would readily
seek the city of Portland as their nearest and
best market. This they are DESTROYS of doing.
When we take into view the importance of
securing, at an early day, western connec-
ton which has such superior advantages, and
is equal, in every respect to any other route
that can be named, we feel that its impor-
lance can only be met by arousing an interest
which may show itself by substantial aid
from all those that are directly interested.

Since Franklin captivated the Parisians
there has never until now been representa-
tive of the United States in the French cap
tai of whom it could be said, "He is the most
popular man in Paris" We think it is not
quite just to say that the respect shown to
Mr.. WashbuIne is entirely due to his repre-
sentative character, and that any other Amer
can in his place would have received the same
honors. Mr.. Washburne has allowed his.nat-
nral sympathy with liberal institutions to
have fleer expression than most diplomat
lists would think appropriate. Men like Ma
son, Faulkner Dayton, Dix or most OF our
other recent ministers to France would have
performed the duty of announcing to the new
government that it was. recognized by the
United States in a perfunctory manner, so
that there would have been no such sudden
reminding of the ancient friendship between
the two nations as the last month has wit
messed. 1t is fortunate that for once our
country had the ri hit man in the light place.
For however sk.lliuly America has managed
its domestic affairs, it has figured most I'M
satisfactorily as member of the great fami-
ly OF nations. No struggling republic has
ever got more from us than cautious word
of sympathy. People struggling against des-
potism have looked more hopefully for aid to
the sefishness of other nations than to our
friendship. In a few years after our independ-
ence was gained through the aid of France
our treaty obligations with that country were
shamefully disregarded, and in consequence
there was laid the foundation of tha still
unilquidatedj French spoliaton claims
A few isolated dramatic exploits, undertake
en- on the responsibility of individuals. like
the rescue of Martin Kozta from the Austri
ans by Capt. Ingraham, are all that American
history thus far has to exhibit of our champ
onship of democracy elsewhere. The Ostend
manifesto, the bombardment of the little village
of Greytown on the Mosquito coast during
the administration of Gen. Pierce, the dishon-
orable treatment of Denmark in reference to
the st. Thomas treaty, the unhandsome reluc-
tance to pay Russia for Alaska, after we had
bought it, the refusal to join with the other
great powers in abandoning a resort to priva-
teering in times of war-these are salient fea-
lures ofAmerican foreign policy for the last
twenty years. To crown all, the last time the
italian patriots undertook to rescue Rome
from the Pope, the American Consul at that
city went out to Montana with the French
troops and Paral mercenaries, and actually
engaged with them in firing upon Garabaldi's
men. 1t is, therefore, with peculiar satisfac
tiCn that we now see America the first tt
give at least moral support to the younges
OF the Republics, and her minister the idol O
the people of the French Capital.

JULES FAvRE GAMBETTA.- A gentle

acquainted with most OF the members of the
present French government, thus speaks of
Jules Favre: "He is really the head and front

awkward, rawboned, slovenly dressed man,
with a massive head, covered with heavy,
bushy, iron-gray hair-but he is man of

Of Gambctta, he says, "Gambetta, The
young Deputy, is man of extraordinary tai
ent and eloqnence. He is the Minister of thu
Interior, very important position. He il

marked man in the Ministry"

HUNTING AFTER WILL After the death
OF the late james B. Taylor, Esq, of New
York, there was considerable discussion and
no little excitement as to whether he had made
will or not. No document of the kind could
be found among his papers, but legal gentle
man stated positively that he had drawn up
will for Mr.. Taylor, though he did not know
that it was ever executed. AS the amount of
property at stake was estimated at nearly three
millions of dollars, thorough search for the
missing document was instituted. The differ
ent Safe Deposit Companies, with whom Mr..
Taylor had had business relations, were visit
cd, and the documents in their possession thor
oughly ove1hauled; several days were devoted
to the examination of the papers of deceased
at his house, but all efforts proved abortiye.
No will could be found.
The search was about to be given up in des-
pair, when Mr.. Taylor's granddaughter recol.
lected that Mr.. Taylor was in the habit of plac-
ing some of his papers among the books in his
library for safe keeping. Some half dozen
persons being present at the time, she request
ed gentleman to examine the books, in order
to satisfy her. The gentleman complied with
her request, and after fruitessy searching
through volume after volume, he took up a
rather bulky-looking quarto lying in an OBJ
scure part of the bookcase, opened it, and
brought to light the missing will. Full details
as to the contents of the document have not
yet been made public, but it is known that by
MS will, MIR. Taylor leaves all his property vest
ed absolutely in his wife, with an annuity to
MS granddaughter. Much excitement was of
course occasioned by the strange and purely
fortultons manner by which the missing docu-
ment was discovered
