RAILROAD TROUBLES.
Trains Stopped on the South
Eastern Road.
PART OF THE TRACKS TORN Up.
Great Excitement Exists.
THE OUTRAGE COMMITTED TO GET
POSSESSION OF THE ROAD.

NORTH Troy, October %. A part of the South
Eastern Railroad was taken possession of Sunday
morninglin Canada, about mile from here, BY 4
gang of twenty-three men under Col. A. B. Fos-
ter About fifteen rods OF the track was torn up
and all the trains are stopped. There is great ex.
ctement here.
About week ago Col. Foster was arrested al
Newport, on trumped up debt of twenty seven
dollars, and thrown into Crosburg jail till friends
from this place bailed him out.
This outrage is supposed to have FASTENED Col
Foster in taking possession of the road on the
ground that the road had not been repaired as was
agreed upon by the Passumpsic railroad when
they leased the road from him. The managers OF
the Passumpsic road are charged with causing the
arrest of Col. Foster at Newport.
At this writing the men are at work repairing
the road and it is not known when connections
can be made between Boston and Montreal.
NEWPORT, October %. Trains will run as u.s.
ual between North Troy and Montreal, but the
connection between Boston and Montreal is brok-
en-. sur erintendent Folsom of the Passumpsic
road states that all trains that portion of the
road now under their control will be Cancelled,
and mails will be carried by team between New
port and North Troy, whence the southeastern
mail will carry through as usual.
Travel over TINS route must come to standstill
until the settlement of difficulties between the
two roads has been made, which probably will
consume some time.

CONTESTED sENATORSHIP,
Meeting of the Committee on Privilege
and Elections.
KELLOGG AND spoFFoRD PRESENT.
Resolution Offered that the Senate Con
slider the Louisiana Trouble Finally
Settled.

WASHINGTON, October %. The Senate com.
mttee on elections held meeting to-day at which
all the members excepting Morton were present,
together with Spoford and Kellogg, and the lat
ter's counsel.
Kellogg. IN response to the committees inquiry
as to what, if any evidence he desired to pre-
and whether he desired TO be heard in regard 10
the title to his seat, submitted in writing the state
ment that public documents are on file with the
committee, to show that he was duly elected by
the legal government of Louisiana, but IL the
committee should decide upon subsequent reyolu-
tionary events in Louisiana, he will propose to
furnish testimony concerning them.
Spofford orally and briefly argued that events
subsequent to the alleged action of Kellogg have
clearly manifested decision by the people of
Louisiana that the Kellogg government was not
the legal government, aud that the committee is
bound to take Judicial notice of the merging OF
two rival legislatures into one, which was acqui
esced in by all the people of the State and hence
must accept the peoples decision as final He
therefore opposed the taking of any more testi-
mony.
Senator Hill thereupon offered the following
preamble and resolution for adoption as its report
to the Senate:
The controversies heretofore existing in Louis
lana as to which of the two rival bodies was the
legislature of that State and as to which of the
two rival claimants was governor of said State,
having been settled by the State itself since last
adjournment of the Senate,
Resolved, That the Senate recognize it and &C.
cept said settlement as final.

Industrial School at Hsllowell worshipped at the
Baptist church in that place, seats being provided
for them in the body of the church. They were
neatly attired and appeared bright, cheerful and
hopeful, and listened with marked attention to
the sermon. Rev. Mr.. Newcomb, the pastor,
preached an autumn leaf sermon from the text,
ave all do fade leaf" The sermon was ell
oquent and touching, and made deep impression
upon the hearers. The idea of human life fading
and decaying, gradually wearing away passing
into the "sere and yellow leaf period, the speak
er claimed is not discouraging fact but is cal
culated to mellow and hallow life, and make it all
the more useful. He does discredit to his own
immortal nature who crowds out of his mind
constantly and altogether the thought OF decay
and death. The sermon was inflled with beauti
full and profound thoughts, suggested by the
sutumnal scenes now transpiring around US.
