Resignation of N. L.. Davis.

We regret to learn that Mr.. N. l.. Da-
Wis has resigned the position of master me-
chanic of the Rutland division of the Cen
trail Vermont railroad, which he has so long
held with credit to himself and benefit to
the road.
Mr.. Davis came into the employ
of the original Rutland and Burlington
railr, ID twenty-six years ago, before its
construction was completed. He had pre-
viously been locomotive engineer for
three yeass on the New Bedford and Taun-
ton railroad lie run the first locomotive
that ever came to Rutland, and from that
day has been closely allied in all his inter-
ests with the town and its citizens.
For nine years he ran a passenger train,
after which he worked in the shop as fore
man for many years. Eleven years ago
last January, he was appointed master me-
chanic, position he has filled with great &C
ceptance to all concerned. During this pc
and car shops of the Rutland railroad and
its leased lines, which included the Vermont
Valley, Addison, Pittsburgh and Montreal,
Whitehall and Plattsburgh, and Harlem
Extension RAILROADS He has built thirteen
new locomotives, some of which are equal
to any in the country. While an engineer
he made the quickest time on record from
Rutland to Burlington, in one hour and
fifteen minutes and making three stops.
During his residence here Mr.. Davis has
been identified with the town in many of
its most important interests as chief engi-
neer of the fire department, villagh trustee
and is at the present time one of the board
of selectmen. He was at one time the unsuc-
cessful candidate of the democratic party
for the legislature, running largely ahead
of his ticket. These relations show the re-
gard in which he has been held by his fell
low citizens. We are not informed of his
future intentions, but wherever he may 90
he will carry the good wishes of our cit
liens for his success and prosperity.

The fish and game club of Arlington are

money in damages, besides being the basis
of a royalty for such manufactures in the
future.

BigOtry and Alarm in Mexico.

via Havana, April 8.
The journals of Vera Cruz complain that
the church party are making inhammatory
appeals through the priests and at evening
meetings that they point to the calamities
of Yucatan, where small pox prevails, and
declare that the anger of heaven has fallen
upon that state because she accepted the
reform laws and allows masons and spir-
itualists to reside there. The Terrocanii
says the purpose of their appeals would
seem to be to incite mob to repeat the
bloody scenes recently enacted at Ahual-
ulco and Acapulco. The masses are now
only restrained by the power of the gov
ernment.
