mails which are compelled to travel IS
or 20 miles every day. The question
again presents itself, which has been so
often urged before, may not dummy
engines take the place of, or supple
ment, the services of the horse? Two
or three inventions, combining all the re-
quirements of safety, in speed, absence
of noise and smoke, have been submitted
to this Society, and there exists little but
prejudice to oppose their adoption. The
fear of alarming horses is the only OBJ
lection; but, with infinite more cause,
the animals along Greenwich street have
become familiar with even that crashing
noise of the railroad over their heads.
By substituting these noiseless engines,
which can be arrested in half the time of
horse-car, tenfold the number of pas
sengers could be transported from one
end of this island to the other in about
One-third the time.
GOnrs respectfully,
HENRY BERGH, President.

what More Cam We Ask.

Our country is at peace with all the
world. Not speck of war appears up
on our national horizon. We are hon
ored and respected by every nation in
Europe. We have amicably settled our
troubles with England. Instead OF
bloody war, urged by hot-headed poll
ticians, we have placed to our credit by
Great Britain, over $15, 900, 900 in gold.
Every branch of industry is prosperous
in the extreme. The working man COM
mands better wages than ever before.
The demand for skilled labor is greater
than the supply. The countless acres
of rich Western land are being opened
TO homestead settlements. Railroads are
being built to closely unite distant sec
tions Our factories are supplying for
eign demand. Our products of labor are
being scattered throughout the world.
Our grain is being sent abroad. Our
commerce is reviving. Our merchants
and bankers and business men generally
are enjoying prosperity, because the
basis of trade is sound, and the tinan-
cial policy of the Government wise and
secure. Our national debt is being grad
uaIly reduced-over 1858, 100000 having
been paid off in less than four years.
Our taxes are being lessened yearly, and
in few years the burden will be remov-
ed entirely Our currency has nearly
reached par value in gold, while our
bonds are being sought after by capital
lists of the world as the very best of in
vestnents. Our banking system affords
security to bill-hOders and depOsitOrs,
and meets the wants of the mercantile
interests of the nation. Our laws, with
a few local exceptions, are respected
throughout tie land. With peace and
plenty at home, our flag respected
throughout the world, our citizens pro-
tpcted wherever the American name is
known what more can we expect?
What more can we justly ask ? Let
every citizen, irrespective of party, sur
yry the whole ground and ask the ques-
ton, Why this wonderful prosperity ?
There is II cause for it. Our prosperity
is not accidental. 1t is due to a careful,
faithful honest and economical admin
istration of the Government. The Gre
dit for this healthy state of affairs be-
longs to General Grant and to the patri-
otto men upon whom he relies. To re-
elect him would be more than party
triumph-it would be a national victory.
1t will secure to the Republic a continu-
ance of the prosperity which has charac-
'crized it since the advent of General
Grant

VeSuViuS.

The subjoined paragraph of a letter
from an official connected with the
United States consulate at Naples, to
his sister in Rutland, will, we doubt not,
afford our readers some appreciable idea
of the terrible nature of the recent
eruption of Vesuvius.
''In my letter to mother | sent an &C
count of the great eruption of Nesuyius
which took place the Goth of April last
If she received it you have perhaps read
it. | will not occupy myself much with
it now. | had very narrow escape; |
may say almost miraculous. That even
ing | accompanied some persons up on
to the mountain to the lava stream.
Half an hour after as we had gone back
from the burning lava, the whole side of
the cone burst open, throwing out the
most frightful showers of lava, boiling
water, steam and red hot projectiles.
Eight of my acquaintance were swal-
lowed up, the ground opening under
their feet. There were over thirty per-
sons killed. | ran for my life as | saw
the columns of lava and dense black
smoke coming towards me with the We

I ever expect to experience. | fully eX-
peCted to die. No words can convey my
idea of the horror of that scene. As
Providence would have it the explosion
barely reached me- All those Just be-
yOnd me persisted. With that explosion
the great eruption began. The sight
from Naples was one of the most appal-
ling you can imagine, There are over
$4,000 inhabitants living about the base
of Nesuvius whose homes were threaten
ed with destruction. Fancy what
comotion; what a stampede. The ashes

HORSE DIsEAsE.-James Mclden, re-
siding near the creek, on West street,
lost a valuable horse, yesterday. The
horse had been sick some four days and,
it is stated, had all the symptoms of
typhoid laryngite, y the disease now so
prevalent throughout the country. We
see, as yet, no cause for uneasiness by
our horse-owners. Of course, horses
will die, and, at this particular juncture,
the owners will discover all the symp-
toms of the prevailing disease. DiIigent
inquiry has failed to disclose any cases of
the laryngite among the many Rutland
horses.

MURDER IN SANDGATE.-On Friday

Mass, died in the sleeping car from

PORT HENRY.

Work was commenced on the new fur
naces, south of Cedar Point, about
week ago. A Golfer dam is now being
constructed, and the same on completion
will be pumped out, 50 that the founda-
tiOns for the stacks can be laid at once
Luther Whitney, ESQ, of ReeseVillc,
has the contract for building the dam.
-Messrs. Foote and Murdoch have
bought Simon Doctors stock of goods,
leased his store, and will hereafter do
business at Doctors old stand.
Charles B. Peasc has purchased Van
Ornam's billiard tables, and leased the
billiard hall. Everything will be reno
waited and set in running order at once.
If anyone can keep the balls rolling,
Charley is that one.
An unfortunate individual, whose
name | could not learn, had the i'll luck
to fall into the clutches of policeman
Barney last Saturday. The justice, by
force of moral suasion, extracted fifteen
dollars from the poor fellow, and let
him 90, with a gentle hint that if he
sinned more, that he would be provided
with a good easy job for the rest Of the
winter.
Buildings, innumerable, are rising
all around us in every direction. The
prospect ia certainly very fiattering that
we have lively and tiOurishing times
hereafter.

SECRET SOCIETIES. The petitioners to
the Vermont Legislature for an act max
ing the membership OF a secret society
LEGAL disqualification for the office OF
Jnror have received leave to withdraw.
This is what might have been expected,
considering the fact of there having
been made no distinction of the kind OF
secret societies, in the petition offered;
and considering also the fact that the
number of persons belonging to one or
more secret organizations OF some sort Is
s.too numerous to mention. Moreover,
with such disqualification for the jury
box. the secret societies might soon nave
more applicants for membership tnah
they would desire, since such connection
with their organization might become
fayorite resort for escape from the ttrib-
ulations of long-winded and vexatlous
trials in the court room. Many poor
fellow who breads the jury box might
hail a secret society as very god-send
for escape from the impending conflne-
ment and tedium in the court. we are
not members of any secret organization,
and don't wish to be driven into one by
any such indirection. Vermont Joatraa0t.
