from parties in the country who, though anxious
to consult me, avowed their utter inability to come
to Burlington for that purpose; and being anxious
to meet tho wishes of those applicants, but con-

finally determined on making regular visits to as
many towns in Vermont and vicinity as my time
would admit of, and thus afford such persons an
opportunity of consulting me.

\ GREAT RAILROAD IN TROUBLE
The Vermont Central Railroad is in
serious financial trouble, and its great
combination is in danger of falling to
pieces through inability to meet its
money engagements. We understand
that it lost, last year, on the Ogdensburg
line S175, 900, and on the Rutland line
$500, 1000 while the earnings of its own
main line (lS4 niles are not sufficient
to pay the interest on its Sll2,0O0,000
of bonds and guaranteed stock. 1t is
reported that its balance sheet is behind
nearly 81, 000, 900, which is represented
by floating dent and that it is pro-
posed to meet this 10y n further issue of
mortgage bonds to that amount, but
that there is hesitation on the part of
its friends and the Boston capitalists,
who are interested in its affairs, to in
dorse this schame, on the obvious
grounds that it furnishes no permanent
relief from the difficulty, that the
business of the line and its leases is
plainly unequal to the meeting of their
obligations, and that it is better TO con-
front at once the necessity of n more
radical solution of the difficulty. There
have been meetings of the leading par
ties in interest at Boston this week to
consider the " hole matter, but we do
not learn that any satisfactory conclus-
ion has been reached, and the danger
ofan early suspension is imminent

In view of the inevitable condition Of

Greeley and Brown 10 November, il has
been suggested that Horace may have
had after all, patriotic purpose in &C
cepting the Cincinnati nomination.
