A CORRECTION We have seen a very no.
tceable error in late issue of the Argus and
Patriot, concerning the action Of the court in
the liquor causes in the last term Of the su-
preme court Of this county, published, we
doubt not, TO influence votes in the pending
election. The fact il, that the States Attor-
ney urged all the causes alike for trial, but the
respondents counsel urged and procured a con-
tuuance Of all the causes but two. And this
was done, no doubt, 50 as to separate John
Rocks case from the others; to put it forward
as feeler, and if the judgment OF the court
should be adverse to him, to stand from under
as to the rest. 50 Rocks case was, in fact,
put forward by the liquor interest, and so he
owes his present situation to those "of the
house of his pretended friends"

HARTroRD.-W Work is already commenced on
the Woodstock railroad, and the road is to be
completed from White River junction, and
the ears running as far as Quechee village, by
January first, 1875. Great credit is due to the
Woodstock people, and to the inhabitants
along the line Of the road, for the earnestness
with which they have taken hold Of tho work
Two hundred thousand dollars has been guaran-
teed TO the contractor, who is to complete the
road and put it in running order.
The people at White River Village were
startled Monday morning to learn that rob
berry had been committed during the night Of
Saturday, the 22d inst, Tho thief entered
window and took a watch worth forty dollars,
and lot Of shoemakers' tools worth from sixty
to one hundred dollars, and left for parts I'M
known, nor can any trace Of him as yet be
found, The theft was committed against a
shoemaker who has just come to our place to
set up in business, and no doubt he will feel
that be has come to an unfortunate place TO
commence work, Only the evening before
there was a Frenchman arrested here for horse
stealing from West Lebanon lie has an ex-
animation to-day, and will lie sent to llavor-
hill, n H., for safe keeping until he can have
his trial. lie cannot DO an accomplished thief,
as no tried to sell the horse only ten miles from
the stable from which he took him.
