Rutland and Montpelier Railroad.

The committee appointed at the rail-
road convention held at Rochester last
winter, consisting rof Samuel Wells of
Montpelier, John Cain of Rutland, and
Hiram Carlton of Waitsfeld, to assess
the several towns on the line of the
Montpelier and Rutland railroad, for
making a survey of the route, by which
the feasibility of the enterprise could be
Judged of, and correct estimate of its
cost be made, had a meeting, few days
since, at which it was decided to make
use of the survey of the Rutland and
Woodstock road as far as Sherburne,-
mot Shelburn) --hollow. The commit
tee have made their assessment upon the
towns, of what they judge necessary to
complete their survey, and most OF
them are promptly meeting their mani
fest duty and paying over the money.
The share that the town of Rutland
ought to bear of this burden, as fixed by
the committee, is six hundred dollars.
This is but small sum for the business
men of our town to raise for an enter
prise of the character and magnitude of
this. Powerful railroad interests are
interested in the building of this road,
and the business interests of Rutland
ought to be actively engaged in pushing
forward this project. Wehope that the
money to make the preliminary survey,
will be checrfully and speedily raised,
that the committee may bring their
duties to a close and report to the parties
interested VIII not some prominent
and public spirited man take the burden
of raising 5000, by public meeting or
otherwise, that we may have the survey
and know that it is possible to have con-
nection with Montpelier by rail direct.
Let us have the survey and then we will
be prepared to decide what we can af-
ford to do for the purpose of building
the road.

Private letters from Vienna indicate
that the American Educational exhibit
commands the closest attention and adj

there is every reason to expect that med

Ohio, Washington and st. Louis, with
honorable mention for some others.

THE WHEAT "COR NER."

Nearly every day we receive accounts
of some useful, and usually indispensi-
BILE article of commerce, being seized by
SPECTATORS, and its price sent up where
holders can reap large gains, and the
small dealers are fleeced out of what
they happen to have that can be made
available. The course of trade during
he last few years has made these corn
ers possible. In the days when dealers
in the commodities of the country were
accustomed to sell what they had, and
receive delivery of what they bought,
it was not possible to create q panic in
any market, or to drive anybody into a
"corner." This style of doing business
arose with the system of gambling, now
in vogue, where men sell what they
have not got, and never expect to have,
in anticipation of a fall in price, while
the buyer contracts for what he never
expected to receive, in the hope that
there will be a rise in price. In other
words the parties bet certain sum,
that they call margins, that the
price of the commodity they are talking
about will rise or fall. When either of
these classes get the control of all there
is in the market of any article, they
create corner" rake in their stakes
or margins" and complaisantly smile
over the distress and misery they have
caused to honest traders, or consumers
who have been ruined by the fluctuation
of prices.
The last successful ''corner" we have
heard of, was the Chicago wheat corner
of last week. According to the Chicago
papers the ring who brought about this
little affair, were few grain dealers
from Milwaukee, who bought all the
wheat in the Chicago market, amounting
to about 100000 bushels, paying an
average of 1922 per bushel, with know
ledge that the farmers were holding on
to their stores for higher rates. The
ring then bought what is known as
sellers options, for delivery ia July
at $1.19 for 800,0 bushels more. The
meaning OF this term is that'they pur-
chased 800,0 900 bushels of wheat, for de-
livery any day in July the seller might
select, at $1.19 per bushel, but at the
same time they kept down prices to
Sl.1S, so that wheat would not be
shipped in, and kept the market in
shape until the last day of July, that the
shorts might not deliver, if they desired
to, and save the one per cent. On the
last day of July, the holders of these
options insisted on delivery of the wheat,
the sellers were eornered, they could not
get 1t to deliver, and had to settle with
their masters as best they could. This
was done and settlement made by paw
ing at the rate of $40 for 700, 600, and

81. 80 for 100, 900 bushels, and the clean
profit to the ring, amounts to the pretty
little sum of $f35,000.
This game is one of the most fascinat-
mo in the whole list of gambling
schemes. Horse racing and draw poker
are innocent and puerile in comparison.
The sscorner" succeeded, no one was
ruined, but the market for breadstuffs
was deranged, and a great many inno-
cent people have been injured, and what
is worse there is no way that is now
known for them to help themselves. 1t
is surprising that reputable merchants
will consent to trade with spectators,
who they know are trying to ruin trade
and bring reproach upon the name OF
fair dealing, and we see no remedy now
EXCEPT for the producers and consumers
to always keep the power in their own
hand for regulating the markets. We
look to the farmers oranges to do some
thing in this line These sudden fiuctua-
tions in prices never help farmers, and
we believe they viii find it more for
their advantage to study the natural
laws of supply and demand and keep
their storehouses and depots of supplies
in their own hands, where spectators
cannot buy them up, than to dabble in
politics or attempt to find relief in legis-
lation.

Obitu AIRY.

Died in ShOreham, August 1st, 1878,
Hon. Myron William Cotton Wright
He was born in Shoreham, January
25th, 1904, and lived there all his life,
with the exception of short time, i'll
Northern New York, while young.
His opportunities for acquiring an ed
ucation were only such as the common
schools of that day afforded, with the
exception of one term at Castleton Sem
mary yet so well did he improve his
limited opportunities that he became a
teacher. Without the aid of wealth, or
the assistance of influential friends, on
ly as he merited it by bis integrity and up
right character, he quite early in life wa3
accorded leading position in the COM
munity in which he lived, which was
maintained through life, or till disease
had incapacitated him for business.
Recognizing the claims which the public
have upon a reasonable portion of the
time and services of its citizens, to dis
charge the various duties which are Incl
dent to our form of government, he
served in the various town offices till he
declined further service.
He was appointed Justice of the
peace in 1887, which office he held until
Nov. 80, 1872, when he was unable to
discharge its duties.
During large portion of this time
he was the leading trial justice, and SO
great was the confidence of parties in
court before him, in the correctness of
his decisions, that but few appeals were
taken. Few men outside of the legal
profession, were so well versed in law
and the decisions of the Supreme Court
as he. m@s
He represented the town in the legis-
lature in 1916, 1859 and 1860.
He was elected assistant Judge of the
County Court in 1855 and 1856.
In 1856 he was nominated by the dem
ocratic as we'll as the republican party,
for that office, though a republican him
self.
He also represented the town in the
last constitutional convention. In the
settlement of estates, he was very often
selected as administrator or commission
er-his good judgment, correct business
habits, and impartiality, making the
selection desirable. He was free and
fearless in the expression of his views
and opinions, and, withal, sometimes
very plain, so much SO that at times in
dividuals became offended and yet these
ticulty likely to terminate in litigation,
would apply to him for advice and coun-
sci, which he as readily gave as though
their relations had always been of an in
innate character.
On the 10Th day of March, 1869, while
in Rutland on business connected with
the Addison railroad, he was attacked
with paralysis, the effect of which was
scarcely perceptible at first; yet slowly,
but surely, the disease progressed, till
that strong mental and physical organi-
cation gave way. Like the tall pine in
the forest, when stricken by lightning,
its decay is but question of time.
His funeral was very largely attended
August Sd, the procession from the house
to the cemetery being one mile in length.
The impressive services of the Masonic
institution were performed at his burial
by bis brethren of Sinonds Lodge, kind
ly assisted by brethren of the lodges in
Brandon, Middlebury, Orwell and Bird |
port. NJ. $.

"FoR GRATUIToUs DISTRIBUTION
Without naming any special enterprise
which may or may not be exceptional,
as far as what we desire to state is appli-
cable to it, we would say that, it is in
general a mistake to suppose that pub
LEGATION which is distributed gratuitously
has any peculiar advantages for the adj
Yertiser. This point is very often
claimed for these ephemeral journals and
the statement frequently made that, be-
cause a paper is free, it will be more &C
ceptable to the reading public, and more
carefully perused. But it is well known
to some advertisers, and should be re-
membered by all, that neither statement
is apt to be correct. People are quicker
to take what they pay for. They are
more apt to read a paper thoroughly,
under those conditions, and think much
more of it. while they will put aside as
worthless, half-read or not read at all, a
paper which they suppose to be of little
value because it is given away Adver-
Using which is given away, is thrown
away.-RoloelPs Reporter. III

y
SCHENCK>S MANDRAKE PILLS.
Are the only medicines that will cure Pull
mOnary Consumption.
Sometimes medicines that will stop
cough will often occasion the death of the
patient. 1t locks mp the liver, stops the
circulation of the blood, hemorrhage fol-
lows, and, in fact, clOgging the action of
the very organs that caused the cough.
Liver complaint and dyspepsia are the
causes of two-thirds of the cases of con-
sumption. Many are now complaining
with dull pain in the side, the bowels
sometimes costiVe and sometimes too
loose, tongue coated, pain in the shoulder
blade, feeling sometimes very restless and
at other times droWsy the food that is Ia
ken lies heavily on the stomach, accom-
panied with acidity and belching of wind
These symptoms usually originate from q
dlsordered condition of the stomach or a
torpid liver. Persons so affected, If they
take one or two heavy colds, and if the
cough in these cases be suddenly stopped,
the lungs, liver and stomach clog, and re-
main torpid and inactive, and before the
patient is aware of his situation, the lungs
are mass of sores, and liberated, and
death is the inevitable result.
Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup is an exBec-
tOrant which does not contain any opium,
nor anything calculated to check cough
suddenly.
Schenck's Seaweed tonic dissolves the
food, mixes with the gastric juice of the
stomach, digeStS easily, pOuriShes the syS-
tenn, and creates healtlS circulation of
the blood. When the bowels are costive,
skin sallow, and the PATIENTS of bilious
habit, Schenck's Mandrake Pills are re-
quired. 4
