Waite says:
an estimating for the superstructure, I hav.
assumed the iron to weigh sixty-nine pounds to

the maj part of the traffic will be COAL and the
running of heavy trains will necessitate sub

alterations may be made to advantage

also contains several suggestions in re-

which are of material value, and closes

THE OLD REBEL sPIRIT-DoN'T FAIL TO
READ THIS.
When it was thought at Newbern. N.
C., that the Greeleyites had carried the
State, the real sentiments of his support
ers quickly manifested themselves. A
recent letter received in Boston from a
lady long resident in Newbern reveals
something of it when she says, eff YOU
could have heard the insults we have
been subjected to during the last two
weeks, you would not be surprised at our
condition. The last few days has deveI-
oped the old rebel feeling, and promi.
nent people are severe in their denunei.
alton of the republicans, and especially
Northeners, because they think we con-
troll the eolored people. During the last
two days the excitement has been in
tense. The women of the neighborhood
have hurled every epithet which they
could think OF, whenever they thought
they could make us hear, calling us ne.
gro lovers, she RAIDS, &c. Bnt what as
tonishes MIR. the most is to see
that he was so mistaken about the hit.
ter feeling of the old rebs dying out.
The last few days has changed his opin-
ion so much that he talks of leaving
should they gain, thinking it would be
impossible to stay in peace Prominent
men use threatening language. Yester-
day Merrimon telegraphed that their
majority would reach 5000, and that
they were certainly elected, and such an
excitement never was seen here before
Now their time had come, and they would
crush every Yankee and republican until
they would be glad to go away"

of the houses on Furnace street were
emptied in fear Of the powerful food OF
water rushing over the dam. II rose so
that 1t flowed over the road in front of
the bank block, but the greatest damage
was to the grist mill owned by Cahee
Brothers. The water broke away and
rushed under their blacksmith shop con-
nected with their mill, and large body
of water ran through the mill square,
Outlying it out badly, and carrying off
the underpinning Of shop, filling the first

The suddenness and destructive force
Of the freshet has not, we think, had a
parallel in Vermont since the terrible
Hood in New Haven, near the residence
of Mr.. Nash, when the New Haven riv-
er. rising suddenly, swept away several
dwellings and twenty-one persons, of
whom but seven escaped alive.

To the Freemen of Vermont.

Are you awake TO the Importance of
the coming State election? Do you re-
alize the Importance of casting every
vote possible for the State ticket? Let
every true republican and every honest
democrat realize that the cause Of good
government and the true interests of hui
mainly, demand that each and every
one of you should be at the polls on
Tuesday next, and cast your vote for the
State ticket headed by the Hon. Jul
Illus CONVERSE for Governor, an
able, honest and upright man, man
eminently qualified for the position to
which he has been nominated. Let Yer
mont speak in such tones that shall re-
Joice our friends in Maine, and enable
them to take up the cry on the ninth of
september and send it thrilling through
Inc Middle States, so that they shall
send back the glad refrain on the eighth
OF October, and the principal battle of
Inc campaign Will have been fought and
the victory fairly won, for then will the
authors OF the Greeley coalition read in
1t their doom. Let no voter excuse him
self saying, " my vote will make no diff.
ference, Vermont is sure" So it is, but
the Greeleyites are saying off we can
cut down the majority in Vermont 5000
we can carry other States that are more
doubtful"
Let them see that you are not asleep
at your posts but eyer on the alert.
Let every voter be on hand and see to
1t that his neighbor is there also-re-
membering that eternal vigilance is the
price of victory.

The Democrats to have a Ticket of
Their Own.

The democrats are to have presiden.
tial ticket of their own, after all. The
work of organizing the national demo-
cratic convention at Louisville goes
steadily on. The Chicago Times, dem
ocratic) which has steadily refused to
support Greeley, says that reports from
various parts of Illinois indicate grow.
ing feeling on the part of democrats to
bolt the Greeley ticket and support the
Louisville democratic nominees. In New
York, Delaware, New Jersey, Kentucky,
Georgia and other States the same feel
ing is expressed.

Gen. Fitzpatrick Under Cloud.

HE MEETS THE VERMONT CAVALRY.
Gen. Fitzpatrick, who is stumping this
State for Greeley, has become so coarse
and abusive, that the Vermont soldiers
have let out an incident in his army life,
which rebounds to anything but his ad-
vantage. They offered to meet him with
the charge at the close of his meeting at
Rutland, last Friday evening, after his
speech, but the Greeleyites careful lily ex-
oluded the opportunity although Maj.
Hazelton was on hand with witnesses to
prove his assertions, thereupon Maj.
Hazelton writes the following in the Rut-
land Herald on Monday:
The LIST Vermont Cavalry were at that
time under Gen. Fitzpatrick, and about
one hundred and fifty (the remainder
having been dismounted and placed on
pickett were drawn up and placed in
line, Gen. Fitzpatrick rode up and called
them all cowardly sons of b--s."
Gen. VIM. Wells Cat that time Major
and in command of the battalion) re-
piled, " Don't call my men towards, we
are ready to 60 wherever you tell us"
Says Fitzpatrick, " forward, follow me-"
and turning his horse charged over a
ridge, and our boys, with a cheer, fol-
lowed close behind. In about the mid.
die of the hill was small log house,
and Fitzpatrick, probably thinking as
did Falstaff, "God keep lead out of me,
| need no more weight than mine bow
els" sought safety behind this hut. Our
little band of heroes kept straight on
and threw themselves in body against
the enemy, three thousand strong. Many
OF them poured out their hearts blood
In that foolish charge, for they were
repulsed, as they knew they must be,
and thrown back torn and bleeding as
they repassed the log house, out from be-
hind it came the gallant Fitzpatrick, and
rode back with them to receive the plau-
dts of the army for his bravery. Green
Mountain boys don't always follow their
leaders. If they had in this instance
they would have come out with less glo-
ry but more men.

What Does it Mean 2

We observe that one or two of the
leading democratic papers of this State
have not up to last week raised the
Greeley ticket, either State or national.
Does that mean anything? Are theyhol
ing off because they have no democratic
State ticket of their own, and do not
care to touch A. B. Gardner2 Or are
they waiting to see the result of the Lou
isville convention which just now hangs
like black pail over the right, left and
centre Of the Greeley army.

Fitzpatrick Going IL.

The Rutland Herald says that scores
of men were disguised with Gen. Kill
patrick at Rutland ON Friday evening
of last week. At the Mechanicsville
Grant and Wilson meeting on Saturday
evening, two men got up and stated that
they went to Rutland to hear Fitzpatrick
as Greeley men, and came back Grant
men. The report comes from st. Adams
that the Greeleyites there say that the
General has hurt their cause in st. AL

The Greeley Men Alarmed.

The Greeley men at their headquarters
at Washington and New York are re-
ported as much concerned about the ma
tional democratic convention at Louis
vile. No doubt they have good reason
for it. Nor, is it impossible that the
democratic nominee may even prove
Gen. Grants strongest competitor, and
Greeley may yet stand toward the re-
publican exactly where James G. Bir-
ney stood toward the wings in 1914,
which he so strongly condemned at that
time

DROWNING OF THE BOY.

The particulars, as related by Mr.. AL
len, OF the loss of his boy, Scott Allen
were as follows He arrived home from
Rutland on the special train which had
been to the Grant and Wilson rati6ca
ton meeting, al twenty minutes to two
O'Clock. Ills wife, not in good health,
heard the roar of the river and was un.
easy about it, but he said that so little
rain had fallen that no danger could come
of it, and henoticed the stream was not 10
to its banks when he came in; but soon he
heard the roar coming on and the crash
ing Of the rock, and SO he got up and
looked out and saw the water was near
ly up to the house. So he told his wife
she had better get up, not that he then
feared any danger, but preferred to be
prepared. She did so, and he observed
that the stream was rapidly rising and
roaring louder than ever. He ran at
once to the bed of his little girl. abont
sixyears old, and throwing quilt around
her, carried to high ground to house
close by, and called for assistance. At
this time. the water was about a foot
deep, and when he got back it was at
least two feet deep. With the assistance
of Mr., Wing, he then got his wife out.
by means of the shed, to where it was
safe, and put his boy on the shed. While
away with his wife, the boy said, Papa
the shed is going" and before they got
back the shed fell, and the boy with If
Mr. Wing was carried down with the
shed. Mr.. Allen ran around where Tho
boy was, and heard him scream and cry
" Papa, come and get me-don't let me
drown" He ran to him, aud the water
was then about three feet deep. He
grabbed hold of the boy, and supposed
he could carry him off, but the bow said
" My leg is broken, and am cauebt y
lie tried to hold ON and extrieate tho
boy, but could not remove the obstrno
tons. He then let go of him, and tooL
both hands hold of the obstruction, but
could not stir it, and at this time the bov
was carried under and down the stream
by the now pouring water, five or six
leet deep. Search was made for the
body for several hours, and it was found
near where Mr.. Allen left him, fastened
by the fioodwood.

What the Democrats Exnect.

The New York World of Aug. %,
sets forth the democratic expectations
from Horace Greeley. Here they are /:
"The advantages which may reasona-
bly, be expected from the success of the
Baltimore ticket are obvious. None but
the willfully blind or perverse can tail
to see them. True, we shall elect a re-
publican President: but we should also
have a republican president if Grant
were to be reelected. But even in This
marrow view it would not be an even
thing whether Greeley or Grant is the
president. No president is independent
OF the political organization to which he
owes his election. THE DEMOCRAT.
IC PARTY WILL HAVE A CON
troll OVER MR.. GREELEY
WHICH 1T COULD NOT EXERT
OVER GEN. GRANT. We believe
that Mr.. Greeley will in good faith rec
ognize his obligations to the democratic
party. He is pledged to liberal, gem
erous treatment of the South he loatbes
the rascally carpet-bag Governments
HE WILL BE NEUTRAL ON THE
FREE-TRADE QUESTION; and if
we act in good faith in accepting the
new Constitutional amendments, we can
not conceive of any important differences
that can arise between him and the dem
ocratic supporters. His Cabinet will
necessarily contain large proportion of
democratic advisers; democrats will be
appointed to foreign missions and Con-
sui ships and to subordinate and admin
istrative offices at home; none of which
advantages could be expected from there
election of Grant"
Are there any freemen in Vermont.
