Central line. These lists had doubled since
the building of the road, and the million Of
dollars put into that expensive road had re-
turned four fold in direct advantages, to say
nothing of the indirect blessings flowing
from that enterprise. Does Worcester wish
to increase the taxable property so per cent
within the coming ten years, and add largely
to the wealth of the people ? Let the town
be wise, and act for her best interests. Some
sad experiences have shown Montpelier that
there were tides, even in the affairs of towns,
that taken at their ebb lead on to fortune
neglected, they return nevermore; and the
saddest song of all is, 1t might have been. '
During Mr.. Poland's speech there was q
little harmless cross firing by some of the
irrepressible Worceste-ites in respect TO the
action of the Irasburgh meeting of the Black
River Valley people. The speaker was quite
sure those people were all right, but they
had had bad counselors. Show them oul
good faith by our good works, and he guar
anteed Black River valley would meet US al
the Lamoille River and clasp hands with Us
across It's waters.
Brief remarks were then made, all in favor
of a railroad, by Messrs. Sabin and Bout
well of Montpelier, P. S. Benjamin, DR.
Fairman, Elson Slayton and E. NJ. Clifford Of
Wolcott, Abdiel Kent of Calais, Cyrus
Brown, VIM. Bruce Eoratio Templeton
L. fai tad fr
recognize II. A. Hancock, Esq, of Wor-
cester, led off in the debate in opposition to
voting aid, in some we'll chosen and earnest
words He didn't believe il the principle of
bonding towns to build railroads. L. was
oppressive to many taxpayers, and he be-
lieved unconstitutional He recited his alb
horrence of, and work against special acts for
bonding, while member of the Legisla
ture, and appealed to a gentleman pres
ent, who was a member with him in
1868 to prove that he was then opposed to
bonding.
The man referred to!replied he understood
Mr.. Hancock was opposed to this class of
legislation that they voted together to
pass these self-same enabling acts. This en-
dorsement put the house into state of up
roarious merr i'm ent, in the midst of which
Nr Hancock fni shed his speech.
The speech of the afternoon was by Mr..
Copp, who was brimful of opposition to
bonding and fairly boiling over with right
eous indign4 ton at the diabolical invention
Of enabling acts. The sylvan retreats of
Worcester were in danger of invasion from
the fiery tramp of the iron horse. Then

GREAT FIRE IN CHIC DPEE, Mass "A great
fire took place Monday night at Cnicopee
Falls, near Springfield, Mass, by which two
cotton mills were destroyed, with 40 900
yards of cotton flannel, and great quantity
of cotton in bales. The mills belonged to
the Chicopee Manufacturing Company, and
were among the f1est in western Massachu-
sets, the machinery being especially valua-
bic. The company will rebaild at once. The
amount of cotton consumed in the mills in
process of construction, is placed at l 800
bales. while the store house, which was
burned, contained $500 bales, some of which
was saved bp pulling it into the canal The
loss is believed to be fully covered by the in
surance, and will reach half million of
dollars. Eight hundred persons were thrown
out of employment by the disaster

WAR IN LoUIsIANA.-Last Sunday the ne
groes and whites of Col(ax, in Grant Pari sh
inaugurated a war upon each other, which
has assumed most serious aspect. The
captain of the steamer Southwestern, which
Yesterday arrived in New Orleans, gives tnis
account:
We arrived at Colfax Sunday evening. at
auous u'uiUoA, aud the white people had
captured the town, after having had a con-
hict with the negroes. Ii was reported to
me that about one hundred negroes had been
killed and many wounded. We saw tr- m
our boat about fifteen or twenty lying around
the banks, dead. One white man WAS re-
ported killed, whose name | did not learn,
and two very seriously wounded, Hadwot
and Harris. Mr.. Hadw0t was shot through
the bowels, and is supposed TO be MORALLY
wounded. Three or four other white men
were slightly wounded. About 100 negroes
escaped. but it was reported that the whites
were still pursuing them. All the leaders
of the riot escaped. The negroes ambuscad-
ed themselves in the Court House. The
whites finding there was no other mode of
attack set fire to the building. The whites
numbered 10 the neighb0rhooi of $50 The
fight lasted from II o'clock until nearly 5
P. NJ. The whites are now in possession of
Coltax, and when lett, late last Sunday
night, everything WAS very quiet.
