The suit Of the Montpelier g.
Wells River railroad against James
r. Langdon. for his subscription of
$4,000, was tried, recently, in the
Washington County Court, before
Judge Barrett. The case has been
once to the Supreme Court already,
and now the plaintiffs obtain a verdict.
Exceptions were taken by the defend
ant, the substance of them being that
there never was legal organization
of the road, that there never was a
legal distribution or award of sto elk,
and that the five per cent. required to
be paid in on subscriptions was never
paid, in by the defendant and many
others. The case of the railroad
against George c. Shepard goes with
the case against Langdon on the same
facts.

RATES OF Observation-Disclosures
ing the frequent statements to the
contrary, there seems to be preva-
lent misunderstanding throughout the
country relative to the legislation en-
acted at the last Congress with regard
to the rates ofpostage, especially upon
newspapers. a bill reducing the post
age on letters to two cents did pass
the House, but it failed in the Senate.
The only legislation on the postal
question at all, which received the
joint action of both Houses, was the
absolute repeal of the ranking privil-
eye, and a provision in the Postal APP
preparation bill, which says that after
July l, nothing shall pass free through
the mails consequently, such matter
as has heretofore been going free will
require payment hereafter.
