A BAD DAY ON THE RIVER ROAD.

From Tuesdays Springfield Republican,
Superintendent Sampson of the Connect
lieut. River railroad had ''blue Monday
yesterday. Things did not seem to 20 well
in the morning, and just before noon word
came that a locomotive cylinder burst
near South Vernon on the train from the
north The train was delayed four hours
an engine being sent up from Greenfield
TO the rescue. The next serious trouble
came soon after 4 o'clock. The train leay-
ing this city at that hour was stopped just
beyond ChicOpee because the air brakes
did not work. The engine was detached
and a man sent back with a flag, as a
freight train was near. Probably the flag
man did not go back far enough; at all
events. the momentum of 80 freight cars
could not be stopped. There was panic
among the passengers when somebody saw
the locomotive approaching and shouted
Jump Several women tainted and there
was great confusion. Fortunately the rear
car, which had been used to convey militia
men TO BrightwoOd, was empty. The
freight engine struck this and pushed the
three passenger coaches, combination and
baggage car against the locomotive, which
was considerably used up. Both locomo-
tives and the rear passenger car were dam
aged, but no one on board was injured. Ii
took an hour and half to clear the track

A DENIAL.

To the Freemen Of BrdttleborO:-Ha
ing this day been informed that a story
has been put in circulation in town, to the
effect that Martin and Haskins were both
in favor of changing the boundary lines of
BrattlebOro village so as TO include the
West village" we take this occasion to say
that such report is entirely without founda-
ton, and is unqualifedly false. Neither
of us is in favor of such a measure, mol
has either of us heard it suggested or init
mated that there was TO be proposition
submitted TO the next legislature TO change
or disturb in the least respect the present
boundary lines of the village.

WHERE is HEAUTHoR1TY TOR IT.

The county commissioners have finally
laid out a suitable highway on the west
side of the depot grounds which is reported
to be satisfactory to the selectmen. who
promise to take immediate steps TO have
the road built. 1t is also currently reported
that the selectmen have settled. or propose
to settle. with the railroad company for
the land in the present highway which the
company squatted upon several years ago
and has since occupied. apparently with
the approval of the public authorities, to
the practical shutting up of the highway
to general public use. for the sum of $50.
or Whereabouts As a taxpayer / want to
inquire where the selectmen get authority
to make such a settlement a. this? The
authority that made the selectmen-tO wit.
the legal voters OF Bratteboro-three years
ago, by unanimous vote. INSTRUCTED the
selectmen to cause the ntruding railroad
tricks and all other distractions to be
forthwith removed from the limits of the
public highway. unless the railroad COM
pany would. AT its OirH expense, furnish
another highway satisfactory to the town.
For one. ! know Of no authority higher
than this. or any under which the select
men can properly and legally settle with
the railroad company. or convey to it any
legal title to the land in question, or accept
any compensation less than the full cost Of
the proposed new highway, which is esti-
mated at $1,000. And this, in the opinion
of good judges, is not an unreasonable
compensation. If the railroad company
needs to use public highway for its own
and its customers convenience. it should
pay for it in Brattleboro as it is compelled
to do elsewhere; and an obviously fair
measure OF what should be paid is the sum
il will cost the town TO provide another
highway. This new road ought not, and
by firm insistence on right and equity,
need not, cost the taxpayers OF Brattleboro
one dollar This thing will bear watching
a TAXPAYER.
