CENTRAL ENGINEERS. The Central
Vermont engineers claim the belt for
heavy weights. OF 80 who run between
Essex Junction and this place, II weigh
over $50 and 10 over 200 pounds. We
may soon expect to see raid by the
special champions of hostility to the
Central, for carrying so much free
freight, thereby wearing out the road,
depreciating the stock, and preventing
the building of other railroads. Now
then let US have practical policy and
put a candidate for governor on the
track with this platform
Resolved, That the engineers of the
Central Vermont shall Immediately be
put in course of training to reduce their
weight, or pay full fare on all corporal
avoirdupois exceeding 160 pounds.
There's nothing like economy to make
railroad stock pay good dividends.

the explosion, received timely warning
Of his danger, and rushing into the room,

- A daring burglary was perpetrated
at Burlington Thursday night of last
week, on the jewelry store of Lewis
Freeman. The burglar entered Mr..
Freeman's sleeping-room, took his safe
key from his pants pocket, and, going
to the store underneath, rifed the safe
and showcases OF $1,000 worth, including
90 watches seven of which were gold.
There were five persons sleeping in the
building, but not one of them was wax
ened. This is the second time Mr.. Free
mans shop has been burglarized; in
the spring of 1868 some parties carried
his safe out to North Bend, where they
left it unopened.
= Recently Davis Tucker, of Bristol,
and Nabbie Howe, of Tunbridge, age
respectively 50 and 6S years, went to
Chelsea, and called on Elder Herrick, to
get united in the bonds of matrimony.
The Elder called for their certificate,
but alas, that necessary document had
been forgotten. Mr.. Tucker went to
Tunbridge, Miss Howe's native place,
but failed to procure the desired paper.
The next morning he wrote to Bristol,
and anxiously awaited the return mail.
No answer came, and after waiting till
Sunday the disappointed lovers returned
to Tunbridge in despair, their only con-
ISOLATION being that they are young and
can afford to wait.
"A remarkable instance Of pluck
and GOODNESS on the part of youngsters,
occurred on Tuesday. Three children,
two boys and girl, of r. M. Copeland
of Castleton, aged and named, respec-
lively, Fred II, Ella IA, and Jimmie s,
with two Dunbar boys, visitors, the one
16, the other 10, went out sailing on
Lake Benesien, in a keel-boat, when a
squall suddenly struck them and upset
the boat, giving Fred the captain, only
time to shout to the others to jump into
the water and keep clear of the boat.
This was done, and in second all were
swimming in the heavy sea toward the
overturned boat. Fred cut the Delayed
sheet and freed the sail and mast of the
little craft, which the party, after hard
struggle, succeeded in righting. They
got aboard, bailed out the water with
caps and baskets, and drifted safely
to the shore. There they found the
oars washed up, ana taking these, they
rowed back to gather up the floating de-
bris, saving everything but the guns
aud ammunition.

ALsTEAD.

In Alstead a tobacco barn belonging
to Thomas Dinsmore was tipped over.
There were in it at the time, six men
and two horses all of whom escaped,
one man only being slightly injured.
One horse crouched under timber but
was not hurt. The correspondent above
alluded to says Mr.. Dinsmore has al
ready begun to rebuild his barn. The
storm continued to East Alstead where
much damage is also reported.
AS whole the gale or tornado is I'M
precedented in this section, and the
damage to many individuals is great,
and in its track far greater than in the
disastrous flood of 1862
