rANf.-One Of the largest annual meet
ings of the stockholders of the Connect
cut and Passump>ic River Rlilroad was
held at the Memphremagog House. New
port, September lst. Rumors. for many
weeks past, had been going the rounds
that there would be n row at tne annual
meeting; that certain members of the
Board of Director, would retire in diSruSt
and of other matters not altogether har-
monous between President Raymond, the
Board of Directors and Geo. A. Merrill.
the superintendent, who resigned. At >
o'clock the meeting was called to order by
the President. Mr.. Raymond stated that
he had no report to make to the STOCKHOLM
ers, and charged three members of the
Board of Directors with forming" a ring
to take the control of the road from him.
which was virtually done from December
lS|4, to July, 1870. After further remarks
in which he handled his past Superintend-
ent without gloves, Mr.. Raymond cave
the following resume of receipts and ex-
penditures for the past year: Gross re-
ceipts, S6S4,349 80; expenses, S457. 474 SO.

incorrect, inasmuch rs he had discovered
some discrepancies in the wood accounts
Mr.. Kingsley of Boston wanted an adj
journment of two months SO that 4 report
might be prepared, but the motion was
largely defeated. Mr.. RAYMOND fully
explained the differences which existed
with certain members of the Board, and
the troubles with his Superintendent.

Mr.. Raymond was asked about the lease
of the Southeastern road, which was
made last March to form an opposing
route to Montreal against the old Central
Vermont route. Mr.. Raymond stated
that the Southeastern road would be no
loss to the Passumpsic. Many stockhold-
ers seem dissatisfied at the lease, as il has
been the source of but small income and
undoubtedly operated at loss. Mr..
Folsom has been appointed Superintend-
ent, at $2,4O0 per annum.

the general impression is that the scandal

former trial, evince1 Il desire to get up a

project has apparently fallen through
1t is stated that Mr. Tiltons counsel fee
that they did their duty to their client BY
working for him through the first trial,
and they are unwilling to 90 on further
in the matter without compensation
There has also been Il little bckerinr be-

The effort of the British post-oflice to as
sumo the telegraph has not only resulted
IN 4 considerable annual deficit, but has
deteriorated the quality Of the postal SER

1t has been improving over the rest of the
world. Postage is higher than on the
continent, even in France, the distribution
to remote hamlets is not so complete, and
IN London all letters for the night mails
