HIT ~ 4 LOCOMOTIVE last Friday, as
Conductor Nose Terrys tram crossed
Bornlill bridge, near Ballston, little three
year old child was seen standing by the
side of the track. The breaks were put on
but the train was under such Roadway that
it could not be stopped until the locomo.
tive had struck the little innocent, who
stood with lis chubby hands upliGted, as if
to guard off the blow. The child was
struck on the head, and thrown distance
OF fifteen feet The train was stopped and
the little one picked up in an insensible
condition, completely covered with blood.
DR.. A } Long, of Whitehall, being pas.
senger on the train, made an examination
of the chld's head. which was found to be
badly cut, although the skull was not frac-
turcd. The mother Of the injured child
was almost frantic. AT last accounts the
little one had recovered its senses, and was
improving.

Prior TO 1871, there were two mortgages
executed by the Vermont Valley railroo'l
company, denominatcd, respectively first
and second mortgages of which Gouvcr-
neur Morris, John 3. Paige and james II.
Williams are now trustees the trustees
not having bccn discharged. Some time in
the year 1865, We think it was, the then
trustees leased The Vermont Valley railroad
to Orchard and Page, by whom it was,
subsequently, leased to the Rutland rail
road company. and by the latter company
to the trustees and managers Of the Yer
mont Central and Vermont and Canada
railroads. In 1871, the second mortgage
of the Vermont Valley railroad company
was forccosed and, the bonds not being
paid, the bondholdcrs, under the statutes
of Vermont, organized new corporation
known as the Vermont Valley railroad
company of 1871 The capital stock con-
sisted of the amount of the second bonds.
but was subsequently, increased 10 nil
lion of dollars and the first bonds purchas-
ed, paid or retired. This Few corporation

The trustees under the first and second
'iipi 'taSNN' W bbSt idilltS idNt Bttn ElNNil,
were in Bellows Falls the same day and
held IA meeting. There were trust funds in
their hands which they voted to distribute
among the stockholders Of the company of
1871, at the rate of six dollars on share.
The stockholders of the old company re-
ceived no dividends, profits or money what
ever, and did not, then, expect any. We
do not however. risk much in saying that
the holders of the original stock, of this or
any other Vermont railroad company,
would jump for joy at the rare prospect OF
receiving, even, 4 one per cent dividend
but they will never, we fear, have any oc.
casion to ''jump." So much for the new
style of reporling-but we must be allowed
to express the hope that no one Of the
original stockholders will really feel any
power when they, here, read the facts.
