INV DEPARTURE. The Democracy
of the country is not united on the sub
jeet. The Memphis Appeal thus CON-
ments upon it;
As we expected, The Democracy Of
Ohio have adopted the "new departure
platform of c. l.. Nalandigham. Selfish
demagogues and party tricksters will de.
rive a temporary profit by this new move
ment, but wise craftsmanship looks not
to present expedicnts but TO future and
ultimate good, and it sees the beginning
of strange and unknown interpretations up
on the Democratic creed, which will ulti-
mately destroy the party. Since this shame
full aequiesceuce in fraud and corruption,
the Democratic party can no longer claim
that its mission is to preserve the Cousti-
tuition. The first concession to the whis-
perings Of vice is the fatal error, and this
concession Of the Democratic party to the
villainy of despotism and the acknowl.
edged violations of the Constitution will
be an invitation TO further innovations up
on our Republican form of government,
1t will educate the people to concession,
and as fast as one is made another will be
required. until there will be nothing left
to concede, and nothing left upon which
to rest liberty or to resist usurpatiOn and
oppression.

Mr. Editor Thinking that short
report of the proceedings of the late Con,
yention of Spiritualists at Stowe, would
be of interest to some of your readers, l
send the following.
The Convention was called to order at
10 o'clock Thursday morning, june odd,
by Sab;n Scott, Esq, of Eden, who presi-
ded in The absence of Mr.. Slocum Of Rut-
land. The Secretary being absent, Mrs.
NJ. Hoadiy. Of Bridgeport, was appointed
Secretary pro tenn.
The morning session was devoted to
besiness entirely, such as appointing CON-
mites &c, after which the Convention ad
iourned till 2 Pm.
The afternoon session was opened by a
Conference which occuYied about 80 min.
utes, after which the Convention listened
to a discourse from Mrs. Warner, of Hi.
nois on Organization" However much
she may be criticised, all will agree
that this subject was well and ably
handled, and one would judge from hel
appearance that she would handle all
subjects equally as well.
At the close Of this discourse the Con.
vention adjourned till o'clock z. NJ
when another short Conference was held
after which was an address,, the speakers
name being unknown to me.
Friday was devoted exclusively to an
excursion to the mountain, and the gener.
al expression was 'swe've had splendid
time" Although the day was very windy
aud not quite so clear as could be wished
Friday evening was devoted to Confer.
ence and speaking.
| On Saturday and Sunday the Conven.
ton listened to short discourses from Drs
Lawrence, Storer, Houghton, Mrs. Hoad.
ley Mrs. Fannie Davis Smith, and others
Although there was diversity Of opinion
as must needs be where there are so many,
on the main question Of Immortality and
the necessity Of growth and development,
to be prepared to enter upon that second
state, all were agreed.

TUE VERMONT DIVISION.

The middle, or as it is officially styled,
the Vermont Division, of the through line
is also well advanced. and preparations are
made for pushing the construction fast as
is consistent with a proper regard for econ
omy. 1t will be completed and in readi-
ness for operation by the time the Eastern
Division is ready to make the through
connection. About 40 miles are now gra-
ded, and upwards of 5000 tons of iron
has been bought aud is now being laid
down. The road-bed is irst-class, with
but light grades
This line. which is about III miles in
length, passes through the very best agri-
cultural portion of Vermont, aud through
the heart Of the celebrated Franklin coun-
" dairy district. Thirty-fve towns in
the State will do nearly all their transpor.
tation on this read, and somefwenty 9TH
ers will contribute more or less. Except
ing St. Johusbury and Swanton, these towns
are distant an average Of lG miles from
any other railroad, and for The entire bus

be no competition. A telegraph line is
being constructed connecting Portland

40. Railroad Line.

N. Executive Committee Of the Yer
no., Division p. & OR r have issued
a neat pamphlet and map setting form ,h'
rrs.peet, aud advantages Of this gna liae
and from which We make the following
extracts;
notwithstanding their mutual advau'ag-
es. ami the narrow interval which sepaTa'e'
thess two important eities-Poriland and
OFiensburg-diree, railroad oOmmun'ea'
,ion has not yet been established between
them. II oriea to reach Portland har-
Dor. western products we're obliged to
make the detoar Of 100 miles nOrthvard'
ria Montreal. or similar detour Of 100
miles southuard. ria Boston. To render
these positions available, to employ their
facilities for an enlarged commerce. and
to supply a much needed line through the
heart of the three States, the enterprisine
citizens Of Portland, cooperating With those
of the towns along che route, have deter
mined TO establish railroad communication
between the two cities at the earliest pos
sible day. Work on the ine has been
prosecuted at various points for nearly
two wears. Nearly half Of the entire ex-
penditure required to open the line has
been made aud before the close Of 1872
7 it is expected the ears will be passing be-
tween the lakes and the Portland docks,
sustaining an immense traffic aud travel.
The iuterpOsition of the White Noun
tains across the route Of the railroad proves
upon careful examination, to be no obsta'
Gle to its construction, BY taking advau'
tage of the marked depression in the chain
known as Crawford's Notch, the Compa'
ny's engineers have been able to locate
the line so to obtain grades similar 10 those
in common use on our best New England
>. roads. These surveys have been sub
mitted to. and the line examined By, Mr.
Benj II. Latrobe, of the Baltimore anc
Ohio Railroad, one Of the most eminent
railroad engineers in the country, WHIT
gives his unqualified opinion as to The
feasible and economical nature of the grade
established.
West of the mountains, the line follow
the water-courses to the Connecticut River
thence across the State Of Vermont {,
Swanton, at the foot of lake Champlain
where il will connect with the Ogdedsbury
aud lake Champlain Railroad; these form
lng direct and practicable route from ives
to east, and the best attainable road be
tween Portland and Ogdensburg; also tn
shortest by fifty miles, between Portlan,
and Montreal, aifording also another, an,
equally practicable, route between Og
densburg and Boston, also between Mon
treal aud Boston.
