A word or two in reference to the opin-
ion of the attorney general. We have new
or, as our readers know, accorded very
much of legal acumen to the attorney gen.
cral, and we, therefore, take occasion to
say that his opinion in this case is unan-
swerable, both in its reasoning, its law and
its statement of facts. II Is not, however,
to praise him that we refer to his opinion,
but simply to bring out fact stated by
him, bearing upon the case, which is prob
ably unknown TO the majority OF our read
ers 1t will be remembered that the SUI
preme court, upon two occasions and in
two different suits, decided that there was
no jurisdiction in that court, or in any
other court in the state to decide a case of
contested election for governor or any 9TH
er state officer. Indeed, they could not
have come to any other conclusion under
the provisions of the state constitution
the clause prescribing the mode of contest
having been, heretofore, given to our read
eIs. Upon more recent occasion, since
the decision of the Pulaski court, they have,
in effect. reversed their decisions and rec
ognized Brooks rs governor. How this was
brought about, the attorney general in
forms us, Brooks rs governor, through the
proper officer, drew an order on Page, the
state treasurer, which Page refused to pay ;
whcrcupon Brooks had mandamus issued
to compel Page to pay the order. This was
"put M Job" This same Page had al
ready recognized Brooks as governor and
had signed petition to the President to
| have him recognized Thus, as the attor-
ney general states, the plaintiff and defend
ant were in one interest, and the decision
was obtained by collision and fraud. The
supreme court of the United States always
refuse to hear n case made up in that way,
and, to use the language of the attorney
general. d" a decision obtained under such
circumstances is not recognized as authori-
ty by any respectable tribunal The Pres
dent having recognized Elisha Baxter rs
governor. he will remain such unless tho
legislature, the only tribunal that can de
cid Il case OF contest. shall determine 9th
erwise. We wish that all attempts to gaii
official position or personal ends by chi
emery, fraud and prostitution of court:
of Justice. could end in the same way. Ar
kansas will now probably. pursue tho
even tenor of her ways. and no longc
attract an undue share of public attention

RAPID TRANSIT.
Air Line From whitehall 10 T.oJ

The Troy Times of Saturday evening
contains letter from Whitehall on the
project for a railroad to connect Whitehall
with Troy, by what IL termed the middle
route, has received new impulse within
few days by the offer of the Rutland and
Burlington road TO extend their road from
Rutlandt to the proposed new road at White.
hail. and it Is proper TO give the people on
the line of the road an opportunity to pori-
pate in the preliminary proceedings about
to take place towards organizing com
pany TO build the road. Starting from
Whitehall, at the head of Lake Champlain,
the road will follow the general course of
the Pawlet river to Bakers Corners. in the
town Of Granville, passing diagonally
through the town Of Hartford in nearly Il
direct line to the village of Argyle, and
thence nearly due south to the Union Vii
agc, when it will intersect the road run
ming to the Troy and Boston road at Johns
willie.
The correspondent further says This
will form a competing line between Lake
Champlan and the Hudson river, running
| between and equ-distant from two parallel
roads now under the control of the Della
ware and Hudson canal company. Parties
interested in the great marble and slate
! quarries lying between Whitehall and Rut-
land, as well also as those of poultncy and
Granville, see in this movement for Il new
road an escape from the monopoly through

and particularly to IIooslck tunnel. several
miles, with grades and curves far superior.
This new line will pass through the central
portion of Washington country, its entire
length, being one of the richest agricultu-
raj sections of the state. Il is estimated
that the products of the soil alone will pay
the whole running expenses of the road,
while it is known that the reduced freighis
on marble and slate will increase the trade
in those commodities beyond comprchen-

make mad and in this case it is matter
of congratulation. The mistakes of the
administration, the failure of Congress to
act wisely upon financial matters, the cvl-
dent favoring of initiation by II large MIMI

tivcs. the landaulet business, the appoint
ment of Simmons. the disregard of civil
service rules, seeming tendency towards
Butlerism, and many other reasons which
we need not enumcratc, lost Us scvera,
states and, finally, New Hampshire and
Connecticut. While all regretted this re-
suit, the wscst and best of the republicans
thought that they could see a ray Of light
through the temporary cloud They
thought it would be regarded, as Foney
would vas cry of "halt, that it would
tend to the publication of the republican
party, and would he the first note of that

mass of the party are true TO their prn-

We always sympathized with those who,

suit of knowledge under difficulties. we
cannot, however, always admire on sympa-
thi2e with the means used to obtain that
knowledge. Our colored fellow citizens OF
the south were deprived of the advantages
of education simply because they were
slaves; but this, while it excuses Their
ignorance, does not justify their elevation
TO offices where education is required, or
the cndeavor of individuals. so elevated, to
steal knowledge. An instance of this has

Edit)r Rutland Globe We read in the
HeyuM of the 14th that lat the request Of
the rector and other prominent members of
the church, we say nothing of the 'little
controversy" which has transpired of late.
Had not the rector after due deliberatlon
changed his cie1cs, and used one of our local
papers to vindicatc himself if possible from

would not have been necessary for me to

others, as well as myself, after read

hold, however, that he is in some degree to

In Mr.. lIarriss letter OF the 18th he says,
"to tie rector aIone it belongs to initiate all
