Really, our country must be going to the
bow vows pretty fast. Even the commits
sioner Of agriculture, government official,
has been showing leaning to the side Of
the Patrons by uttering the following heresy,
in the last report of the department -
RAPACITY OF MIDDLEMEN.-A casual cor
respondent in Lincoln county, Mississippi
reports the following facts IN May June
and July, good flour could he bought at New
Orleans at 81 to So per barrel, while in his
own county middlemen were paid $3.50 to
gage. Bacon, ribbed sides, sold at New Or
leans at & to cents; ut Brookhaven, Lincoln
county, Is cents cash, or l6 TO l7s on time.

The postmaster-generals Of the two coun-
tries have wiped out the boundary line be-
tween Canada and tho United States, 50 far
as the post office is concerned, is the way the
Republican puts it, and that is about right.
Now let Congress, and Genera! Grant, and
the Canadian parliament, and Lord Dufferin,
and the rest Of those who have finger in
the pie, just wipe out the boundary 80 far as
regards customs, turn the enormous army Of
customs officials out to grass, aud give us
free trade, and we believe the people Of both
countries will be benefited. These two coun-
tries are geographically one, aud though it
does not become the United States to seek
the annexation of Canada, as such a propo-
sition should come from Canada herself, it
does become either nation to take steps
towards the abolition of the present custom
house system between the two countries

The Suspected Men Discharged.


The thee nr who were arrested at Bethel on
suspicion of being connected with the gang that
robbed the banks at Winthrop, were discharged
yesterday noon.
The examination Of the parties begun the pre-
vious day, at the jailors office, was resumed yes
terday at o'clock, according to adjournment.
The prisoners themselves-Louis Lewis, Geo.
b. Levi and Thos ii. Clarke, were invited by
their counsel Mr. Pillsbury to tell their stories,
which they did.
No new facts of Importance were ELECTED; and
no direct connection could be proved between the
three men and the robbery of the banks, though
their appearance and mysterious movements in the
State simultaneously with the robbery, was an
explained coincidence. Lewis, Levi and Clarke
are evidently gamblers, if nothing worse, accord
ing to their own testimony. They said they reg
istered their falsely at Waterville, as jest
The suspicion is strong that they knew, before
they left New York, that a bank robbery was in
contemplation by men of their acquaintance, and
that they were not surprised when they heard of
the inthrop affair." But the testimony against
them was inadequate to detain them longer,
and Judge True, after listening to the evidence
on both sides, and to the brief arguments of Mr.
Pillsbury and the County Attorney, ordered their
discharge.

Railroad Matters.

Rutland, July 2S The meeting of the stock
holders of the Rutland Railroad was held here
this afternoon The directors report presented at
the meeting depr.cates in general terms the jeop-
ardizng of tine interests OF the stockholders of
the road by the personal quarrel between Smith
and Page, and urges that the control of the Rut-
land Railroad revert to the original manager cut
ting loose from the control of the Vermont road.
Article IL of the contract between the two roads,
provides that the Rutland directors can re-euter
and re-possess their road whenever the Central
Vermont fails to pay rental within 60 days after
it becomes due. This provision will probably be
taken advantage of.
The report shows that the amount withheld and
now due II Rutland road is $2Sl 81 49, Accord
ing to contract the Rutland road gave 80 Gays
notice to the Central Vermont that they proposed
to run their own road, because the Central had
broken its obligations The 80 DAYS expired on
the 26th inst, and the Rutland, through its couu-
sell Senator Edmunds, are now preparing to COM
mence legal proceedings soon as possible. 1t
is believed the road will revert to the possession
of the original stockholders.
LATER.
The directors of the Rutland Railroad met this
evening. and unanimously elected j. b. Page as
President, Joel NJ, Haven Treasurer, and b. b.

A Denial.
The Herald publishes an interview with William
Butler Duncan, who says there is no truth in the
reports that he went to Europe to consult Alex
ander Duncan, for the purpose of securing his
aid to negotiate new loans; that he applied to the
Barring, Browns and other European firms for aid,
which was denied. and that the Union Banking
is a loser by the firms to even the
amount of farthing.
Mr.. Duncan says every arrangement is made
to prevent Americans abroad with letters of credit
from experiencing any trouble. Neither they nor
their friends have occasion to borrow trouble.
S. NJ. l.. Barlow, counsel for the suspended firm,
says the rumors that the failures will affect the
Union Bank of London, are entirely unfounded,
as the bank is fully protected, as also are the

Sturgeon Fishing ON the Kennebec an
Ancient Business.
Mr.. EDITOR Your paper has Of late noticed
the revival of an old business, viz, sturgeon fish
eres,-which have read with interest, because
here we have history repe ating itself.
The sturgeon fishery" is an ancient vocation in
Maine. A. d. l7l6 in May, the Pegepscot pro-
pretors laid out town at Small Point harbor.
A stone fort was built, and esteemed the best mil
tary defense in the East, and maintained at public
cost. Penhalow commanded here, and the town
was called Augusta and had large export trade,
especially in sturgeon. Thos. Purchase, nearly a
century before, near Brunswick, had found this
fishing profitable, and now 'many thousand kegs
were cured here Of sturgeon .fshed IN lie Kenoejec
and its tributaries and exported each sfoson."-
