Lamoille Valley Railroad.

It was our good fortune to accompany Judge
Bailey, the Railroad Commissioner during por-
ton Of his tour of inspection over this road on
Thursday last special train was run, under
the direction Of Colonel Jewett, superintendent OF
the road and quite little party OF business men
from Swanton and the adjoining towns accom-
panied the commissioner on his trip The result
Of our observation, which was confined to the
westerly end, was surprise in two or three re-
spects. It seemed almost incredible that, in
period Of such unparalleled stringency In the
money market, and Of special distrlist Of railroad
securities, that this extensive line could be COM
peted and put in 10 good shape for business rs We
found IT, The credit Of this IIerculean feat seems
to belong conspicuously to Colonel A. II. Jewett
the superintendent, who, by his untring energy
and consumnate skill, seems to have solved
most valuable problem for the times, viz how to
build railroads without money. Another surprise
was In respect 10 the lake terminus Of the road,
and its prospective facilities for an extensive bust
ness The road reaches tide water Mt Maquan
Bay one Of the best harbors on the lake, and
which is well protected by a breakwater built by
the general government With n view TO make
liberal provision for the future Of the road, few
Of the more prominent OF its friends have pur-
chased a tract Of some seven hundred acres OF
most charming ntervale lying on the shore of the
bay at the roads terminus, and have already
commenced the construction of suitable wharves,
storehouses, etc, to meet the prospective demands
of the road. These will be greatly enlarged
another season, hotel will be built, and already
some gentlemen are contemplating the erection OF
residences for their own use The fact that the
scenery at this point is exceptionally fine, com
bined with It's business attractions, will be likely
to build mp a beautiful and prosperous village
within the next few years Still another surprise
was found in the fact that, during the few weeks
in which the road has been running to the bay,
and in its imperfect condition. and with facilities
of the most barren description, two hundred and
fifty freight cars have already been loaded Mt the
bay, with not less than three thousand tons of
freight, and it is confidently expected to ship two
thousand tons more before navigation closes.
With these results under such unpropitious cir
cumstances, what may not be expected of the road
when fully finished up, suitably equipped with
rolling stock and its business connections prop
erly established?

STILL UNADJusTED. The difficulties between
the South Eastern and passumpsic railroads still
remains unad justed On Monday night the Pas
sumpsc folks took up the track in the village of
East Rlchford, and prevented trains from running
only between that point and Mansonyie. There
was great excitement, and threats are freely made
that unless the passumpsic men relay the rails
there will be bloody times. On Tuesday forenoon
the long trestle bridge at Fast Richford was de
stroyed by the mob, and the same forenoon men
tore up the track between Richford and Abercorn,
=, Q, The movement along the line seems to be
concerted effort to stop the running OF trains
over the Vermont portion of the road. On the
whole it appears that the utmost harmony does
not prevail over railroad matters in that section.
On Tuesday morning President raymond and
Superintendent Folsom, of the passumpsic rail
road, with gang Of men, tore up the track be-
tween North Troy, VI, aud Mansonylle. r. @,
the point from which Colonel Foster runs trains,
then took n short cut by the break, and are tear
ing mp the track between Richford, Vt, and
Abercorn, 7. q. There are prospects of warm
| work ahead.
