MUNICIPAL CoUET.-rhe burglary case came
up yesterday, and both William Sharp and VIM.
B. Bowker were examined on three charges, viz;
burglary from the house Of James II. King,
from the shop of W. A. S. Smyth, and from the
store of William Swccuy. They were bound
over in $4,000 each on the first charge and $4,000
on each of the two others. William II. Green,
who was arrested with Bowker, was discharged.
Patrick Sweeney, for larceny, was fined S25 and
costs and committed TO Jail in default of pay
mcnt; Charles O'Neil paid S. and costs for com
mon drunkenness and the COSTS on complaint
for assault and battery; Michael Drohan, Pat
rick Newton, Margaret Kccle and Christian
Sambo each paid fines for drunkenness. The
latter name might lead the reader to believe the
owner thereof to be a religiouSy inclined Afri-
can; but no; he was a Frenchman, found in a
heathcnish condition of drunkenness-so much
for name. A rose by any other name would
smell as sweet, and a man by any other name
would get us drunk-as Slmbo.

Our railroad business has beer
pretty much at standstill for the
last week, chiefly because nobody has
pushed it, and the whole enterprise
seems in a fair way to be killed by
mere lapse of time. Why this is SC
we don't know. The amount raised
by the number of subscribers obtained
is certainly large, and we know Of
nothing particularly dIscouraging a,
bout the whole affair, except this very
thug of let-alone policy. The hard.
est part of such jobs, is always in the
starting, the getting up steam, but
once started, as this was two weeks
ago, things 90 easier, aud then the
virluous way is to "keep the ball a
rolling" while there is stone unturncd
Heating an iron aud letting it cool
without striking, when time and fire
are precious, is rather dubious BLACK.
smithing.
Another trouble, which we have
spoken OF before, is sort OF jealousy
lest somebody on this earth may not
do his exact part some men hcrea-
bouts even seem to settle back with the
idea Of letting tho whole thing fail,
so as TO spite some one who does not
take his share of the burden, according
to their notion. Which reminds us of
the big niger who tore the baudages
from his sore foot to punish it for ach-
lug the foot might suffer, but it would
also be bad for the general niger.
1t is true that this village has sub
scribed for good part of the bonds,
but it must be remembered that it
properly has, not only the heavy end
of the enterprise to carry financially,
but almost tie whole OF the "drum
ming" TO do, and tina, is just what is
being neglected. Men living out of
the village can hardly be expected to
hunt up a subscription paper and put
their names on, so long as there is no
stir made in the matter. 1t is impossi-
Bile to raise $4,000, in Quechee val
ley, or out Of it, with mere plots aud
general talk somebody must wake up
and go after it.
We firmly believe that if the pc pie
Of this village would take hold Of the
thing, and peg away II, it vigorously
and persistentIy, the whole business
would be ended in six days.

The verdict of the Coronor's Jury upon
the victims of the New Hamburg disaster, is
that said persons came to their death by
sufocation or drowning in consequence of a
collision between the Pacific express train
and car loaded with crude petroleum thrown
across the track of said train on which they
were passengers. The jury believe the oil
train could not have been stopped soon
enough to have prevented the accidents that
the employees of the oil train raised all
means at their command to promptly signal
the coming express train; that the signal men
did their duty in the premises; that the ex-
press train was half mile from the ebstruc-
tions when first signalled, and could have
been stopped, provided that all appliances
had been affective; that from some reason to
the jury unknown, the patent brakes were
not effectively applied.
