The meeting Of the stock holders Of
the Montpelier, Hardwick and Black Riv-
er Railroad, held at Irasburg the 18th
inst, did hot have an encouraging ipau.
ence on the enterprise. During several
weeks past no additions of Importance
have been made to the subscription to the
capital stock, and the opinions OF the d.
rectors are not in complete harmony.
Some wish TO locate the road and secure
right Of Way without using every active
means to Increase the subscriptions. which
now amouu: to less than 100000, while
others consider it desirable to Increase the
stock to nearly 5000, 600 before locating
and securing the right of way. The
stockholders incline to the latter opinion.

A MorHEa PoIspss ugR cHnp BY Mis-
rARE.-One week ago las, Friday. Faux
b. Cleveland of Greensboro Beud, called
in DR.. Adgate to prescribe for his child,
a little girl Of two aud a half years, who
was i'll with a cold. The doctor prepared
some powders. and also a wash. for a hui
NOR which the child had, leaving auother
powder with which to renew the wash
when it became necessary. The first
powders were harmless, but the las, being
corrosive subIimatc, in quantity sufficient
to have killed a dozen persons. The
doctor laid the poison aside by itself, aud
cautioned the mother not to give it 10 the
child, as it was very poisonous Soon uf-
ter he left, the mother took the poison
powder with the intention Of putting it
where it could not be used by mistake,
but for some unaccountab!e reason, uu-
known to herself, proceeded at once to
give it to her child. The little girl re-
fused to take it, aud the mother discov-
cred by tasting of it, that it was very dis
agreeable TO the taste. Finally the most
of it was swallowed BY the child, anu no
soener was II Iakeu, than the terrible
Thought came " the mother that she bad
given the poison powder. The father was
called at once, ani hai presence Of mini
sufficient to give an emetic Of salt aud

and the ply stefan was soou in attendance,

Attaching Water Rents to Secure
CITY Debts.

1t appears that the city can no longer snap its
fingers at those who hold bills against 1t, Re
Gently the water ren,s that are payable on the lst
of January in each year have been attached in
the hands OF several gentlemen 10 their utter as
tonisLment. Not knowing what to do some of
them applied at the Water Department. Here
they were told that they did not owe the city, as
the water rents were paid in advance and if they
did snswer" and refuse 10 pay the wafer rent they
would incur the risk of having the water shut of
and NIGH, also be subjeced 10 an addition of five
per cent to the bill. The consequence was that
the gentlemen in whose hands the money was at
iached did not know what to do; some were Re
publicans and others were Democrats. Finally
suring the parties to the suits that the bills would
be paid ou Friday or Saturday, or as soon as the
Council met to act on the matter. But will the
matter stop here If water tax can be attached,
why not the property tax Here rs a trouble
ahead The city has floating debt of fifty or
sixty thousand dollars and will have to pay its
small bills or be put into costs in many cases
where people get impatta.t. Never has the city
been SO lew before. Noiwithstanding the Coun-
ell expended over 5000 600 last year it is in debt
enormously and cannot find money enough TO
pay as fast rs the necessary work IS done BY Its
employees. This is deeply regretted by every
citizen ana taxpayer WHO feels deep interest in

the Twelfth street Market House.

As one CT the iollies OF past era,this unsightly
fabric still stands as warning against the cree
tion of Improvements before they are needed and
where they will not be used,
This building, like The City Hospital, had It's
persistent advocates among gentlemen of expert
ence and g,eat influence. And like the City
Hospital, it was found entirely unnecessary AID
was suffered to be idle until some one wouli go inio
1t TO take care Oft.
Many Of our older residents remember how long
AMI how srduously eN-Alierman Vincent, labored
in The editorial columns of the " Blue Hens
Chicken TO get an ordinance through the City
Council 10 authorize the erection of the Twelfth
Street Market House but there are doubtless
very many cit sus who beng uninformed on the
subject, often wonder why this market house is not
used, and why it was abandoned.
The cause IL in the fact that this market house
was never required it was built before its time,
ani never was used except b, butcher now and
then and Tor about twenty years, We believe,
was entirely vacant, or occupied by enc of the
brandywine eoopera as a place to store his
barIels.
We believe 1t .ost about s20,UO1, and The money
inichi almost u We'll have been cast into the
Delaware. Ii IS really sstonis hing how we'll the
old market house has worn. Had 1t blown down
i've year, after as erection those who earnestly
lsbored u have il ere cted, would have been glad
VI tit " as to them greater cye-sore than TO
any portion Of our people. They saw in At a con-
slant reminder of the fact that the money was
wasted, and that il might have done great good
had it been spent in other needed improvements
Bat something as demanded for that section
OF the city, and 10 satisfy the clamor of several
politicians who thought their election 10 the
Council depended upon it, the mistake of erect
lug the Twelfth Street Market thirty years before
It was needed occurred. II is fast going to decay
now. and We doubt whether it will be repair
ed OF rebuilt. The wives and families of the very
persons that clamored for the erection OF thi:
house would not stop at 1t TO purchase their mar
keting, and country farmers would not 20 nearer
than 10 drive past it on Market or King street
nor could huxter be got TO remain in it long
enough 10 make business. The reasons they
assigned were the best in the word-the people
would not stop at II on come 10 it 10 buy, anc
they had to 60 where they could sell their stock
We hope the Council will have more success
with the CITY Hospital" that they may finall,
get somebody or some society to take it off thei
But its purchase was unnecessary and an evidenc,
of the utter want OF wisdom about such matters
Aud the best thing that the city could do woulC
be to saddle the loss at once and dispose Of tn
building for what 1t cost when purchased. 9th
erwise it will prove lar more costly afflir thai
the old Twelfth Street Market House.

He has paid on the dividends over $l55000,
and turned over to II. w Bishop,his successor

expenses, attorneys fees, clerks, costs, and
his own commissions. ,Of this 1000 Perkins
seems to have taken the lions share, rs it ap-
pears he received Sl2 900. In this bill of charges
there are some that look eXtortionate, and
more that look as if he could not let chance
slip to make cent. He charged so cents for
cashing coupon, dollar apiece for writing
letters, and s. for advice to some attorneys
about collecting claim. And he winds up
with charging Tor general care and answer

1t is to be hoped other receivers will not
