The Railroad War.

The recent order, which sends all through
freight to Bellows Falls, has been expected
since the sale of the Sullivan road. The next
order will be TO discontinue the sale OF tickets
10 Boston via the Northern, and 10 send
through Pullman and passenger trains via
Bellows Falls over the Cheshire. The Che
shire Company for the last three months
have been expecting this aud the road has
undergone thorough repairs Heavy engines
are now in process of construction for the
Cheshire Hon. William a Russell, presi-
dent of the Cheshire, says We will do the
work promptly il W. arc Obliged TO build L
second track
The result of this railroad war will much
aid Southern Vermont. Bellows Falls VIII
be a railroad centre Of great importance, and
the Cheshire road will be very valuable
piece of property. The Connecticut River
managers are obliged to give three months
notice to the Central Vermont before posses
sion is given of the Sullivan road. Inside of
that time Il railroad contractor is ready to
have the line from Windsor to Bellows Falls
on the Vermont side of Connecticut River in
working order for 1000 less per mile than
the Vermont Valley Company paid for the
Sullivan road. The scheme as started does
| not work worth cent. The Connecticut
River corporation, who control the Yer
mont Valley road, which corporation
bought the Sullivan road, supposed that,
with this 10 use as a lever, the Central
Vermont Company would be glad 10
give the Connecticut River road the
New York business from South Vernon
instead of sending it over the New London
Northern line, now leased by the Central
Vermont. 1t was also supposed that the
Central Vermont company would be COM
pletely demoralized by the decision of the
Supreme Court in the great suit. The Cen
trail VermontIwas victorious-capital is ready
to build. and this company now says to the
Connecticut River, I'VE don't want the Sui
livan road. Give us legal notice" The fight
over the Forrest line need not he very seri-
GUS, as it is not contemplated to build that
if the Fitchburg corporation will not show
any partially between the Tunnel line and
this route to the West. In case that is done
the next point will be for the Cheshire TO
seek another outlet to Boston and only as the
last resort will the Forest line be underway.
Although the distance to Boston is 10 miles
more via the Cheshire and Fitch6urg roads
it is expected passenger trains will arrive at
Boston at nearly the same time as via the
Northern.-Correspondence Boston Journal

DEATH oE EPEs SARsENr-Epes Sargent,
at one time and during many years one Of
the most prominent literary men in America,
died Thursday night in Boston, aged 50. He
early adopted literature as profession, and
among his first labors were those which he
performed as an assistant to Mr.. ). G.
Goodrich peter Parley) in preparing the
latter's publications for the press. He after
ward wrote life of Clay that went through
many editions, and was regarded by Mr..
Clay himself as the most satisfactory one
ever written. In 1880 the late Gen. George
P. Morris invited Mr.. Sargent to remove to
New York and take charge of the New York
Mirror, and he accepted the invitation. His
famous song, "A life on the ocean wave"
was written about this time. Mr.. Sargent,
while proving himself a successful journa-
list, poet and story writer, found himself
able also to succeedin the difficult art of
dramatic composition, and in 1896 wrote q
fve-act play entitled The Bride of
Genoa" which was well received, and was
followed in 1927 by fve-act tragedy, I'VE
lasco," written for Ellen Tree. This play
has been frequently performed in England,
where it was commended by SERGEANT Tai
fourd and the elder Vendenhoff. Other plays
written by him were Change Makes
Change" and tine Priestess," a tragedy in
five acts, MIR. Sargent's connection with The
New York Mirror terminated in 1910, and
in lS47 he returned to Boston, where he
commenced to edit the Transcript. His
connection with this paper ended in 1858. MIR.
Sargent was best known during the latter
portion of his career by his series of school
readers and his Original Dialogues for
Schools" In preparing these works he was
remarkably apt, and the enterprise was q
paying one. The list of works he has writ
ten is an extended one, and that of works
edited is longer. He published the works OF
several Of the English poets, prefxing bio
| graphical sketches, contributed to various
magazines and periodicals and published
several unacknowledged novels His --latest
works were "Planchette." book on Spirit
ualism, and The Woman Who Dared" Q
poem. both issued in 1869 and cyclopedia
of English poetry, shortly to be published
by the Messrs. Harper
