Green Mountain Railroad.

AT an adjourned meeting, holden to-day,
(teb. 1st,) in the town of Warren, (said
town having voted at a previous meeting,

eight times the Grand List of said town.
the following resolution was pissed unani-
mously: Resolved. that the Railroad Com
nissiOncrs of the town of Warren be
Instructed to subscribe to the capital stock
of the Green Mountain Railroad Company
one-third of the amount voted by the town
of Warren, in aid of said Railroad when
said Railroad is graded from some point
on the Central Vermont Railroad, or from
some point on the Rutland and Burlington
Railroad over the proposed route of the
said Green Mountain Railroad to Warren
Village, and issue bonds of the town of
Warren. payable in one year from date, at
4 rate of interest not exceeding six per
cent; and that said Commissioners be
of the amount voted by the town of War
rem in aid of said Railroad to the capital
stock of said Railroad when said Road
Is graded and bridged from some point on
the Central Vermont Railroad or from
some point on the Husband and Burlington
Railroad, through the town of Warren,
ready for laying the rails, and issue the
bonds of the town, payable in three years
from date Of said bonds, with interest at a

such denominations rs said Commissioners
may think best, and shall be signed by
said Commissioners and countersigned by
the Treasurer Of the town, numbered, and
4 record of the same kept in the Town

pose.
The Commissioners report tonight that
they have obtained a majority Of the Grand
List of Warren in favor of bonding the
town for building the Road, so 'everything
is lovely" as far rs Warren is concerned
Now if our friends living in the towns
along the proposed line Of the Road will
go and do likewise" we may look on
the Green Mountain Railroad as Il fixed
| fact.

Thomas E. Mason, of Felchville. VT,
shot George Dean. Of Wcathcrsfeld. at
the Junction House at Claremont Junction,
n! n. H.. about eight o'clock Saturday night.
The ball entered the left side, and the
physicians pronounced the wound fatal.
A quarrel arose about Il former quarrel
between them. when Mason stumped Dean
out OF doors for fight. Dean was about to
comply with the challenge, when he was
informed that Mason had revolver al
ready loaded: and he declined to 90 out.
Mason then fired ut him. though he claims
1t was an accident. owing to Il defect in the
pistol. When Mason found what he had
DONE ne went to Claremont village for
medical assistance. He is now under
arrest. lie was intoxicated at the time
and was ut the Junction House to procure
more liquor. Great excitement prevails.
Mason IS 40 years old, and has wife and
two children. Dean was employed at the
hotel. Is 26 years old and has Il wife.

CorrEHAs MINING IN VEEMoNr.-Cop-
peras Hill. in Strafford, was the first place
from which this mineral was taken in the
United States, about seventy years ago.
The present owner Mr.. w. H. Foster, of
Brooklne. Mass, took possession in June,
lS14,and it is now stylcdthe Vermont Cop
peras Company. There are now only two
working drifts" one of which is 900 feet
long and at its terminus is 200 feet from
the surface of the ground. This drift was
started nearly forty years ago, but the
''vcln was not reached until four years
since. The upper drift" so called, is
800 feet long and at its terminus is sixty
has Il prolific vein, being 1902 feet wide, in
the widest place.
The ore being dug out of the earth is
hammered up into small Jumps, which are
piled in heaps. \ fire is started under
meath, either by adding fuel or by sponta-
neOus combustion. This burning process
rcft of its sulphur and iron qualities, some
times taking two or three weeks, and even
longer
From these heaps are laid troughs
connecting with Il building in which the
lliuli LUIS 'tltcI Dclll9 lcdcllcl through
pine boughs, or something of that nature
Water is added and the mass is then boiled
until it throws off its sulphuric acid quail
ties. Ihi>lacid passes into watts containing
iron and having Il greater affinity for iron
than copper, it takes up the iron and lets
the copper so free.
The waste of these " heaps keeps on
heating, and may be cooked over several
times and be productive each time. The
workmen are now ut work on the waste
thrown out many years ago.
The ore Is it comes from the earth con-
tains only 10 per cent of copper, on the
average, and therefore the yield of pure
copper is small and the principal product Of
the mine is in the form Of copperas, sui
phate of iron-and green vitriol. The av-
| crage annual yield Of the works is about
500 tons though it could be increased in
definitely according to the market. The
works now extend three feurths of mile
in length, and from one hundred to one
hundred and fifty feet in width, with a
working claim upon the adjacent land
The valuation of their real estate is $l5,-
600, and the company pays taxes IL four
towns. Native ore or " metal has been
discovered in considerable quantities dur
ing the past year. and the prospect is good
for the future, and all necessary repairs
and fixtures have been added at great cx-
pensc, in anticipation of an increasing
business. The average number Of hands
employed in the mines is thirty-tvc, eN-

and wood-choppers.

Canada has received an unpleasant mott
fcation that she is not yet out of leading
strings, and that she is incompetent to take
care of her own concerns. A short time
ago she erected high court of appeals,
and allowed litigants to take their cases
there as court of last resort, instead Of
appealing to the English privy council.
This was done by law, and her Majesty
has refused to ratify the act. SO Canada,
having taken a notable step toward indie
pendencc. must draw back again. This
makes her forward movement about as alb
surd as the king OF Frances historic

thousand men.
