There is great complaint because
the Passumpsic road did not furnish
half enough cars on the special train
to bring back the excursionists from
the Grange celebration at Lyndonville,
and a hundred people, some women
with small children, had to wait about
the station five hours, until the 10
o'clock train arrived from Sherbrooke.
Many farmers left their teams at this
place, and had to drive home after half
past ten, one at least distance of 10
miles.

The P. & o. R. R.

The work of laying the track on the
Z. 81 o. in Vermont, is rapidly ap-
preaching completion. Both this road
and the Burlington & Lamoille, have
reached the junction at Cambridge, as
we published last week. AS soon as
the connection is made there, trains
Will be run right through to Burlington,
and by week after next, to Swanton
also. There may be another train put
on over the P. s. O., corresponding to
the Boston and Montreal express trains
over the Passumpsic and the Central.
And in this connection, table of dis

that the Chronicles read by Mrs. Brooks
at the last meeting of the st. Johnsbury
Academy alumni, are to be printed, and
that they will be ready for the public
in few days. The character and merit
of these chronicles are such that many
besides those who have been students
ut the academy will wish to secure
copies. They will be for sale at Howard

vicinity This is the first and the only
church in town that will admit to its
communion members of other evan
gelical churches. The praise like the
others, is the united voice of the whole
congregation led by an organ, which
the Reformed and United churches ex-
clude. May the Lord prosper her as
she is faithful to Him and to the spread
of His Gospel.
The Ladies Christian Temperance
Union, recently formed in town, have
undertaken good work, and although
there are but few who are excessive
drinkers, yet there are altogether too
many red faced men whose faces would
whiten out were they to sign a total
abstinence pledge and adhere strictly
to the vow. May this really be Chris
tian union, not only so far as the two
churches are concerned, but of the
united town-and if they cannot agree
to sing together let them pray.
