 An instance lately transpired In New Lonodon showing the malignant feeling of the copperheads in that community towards union men.

 We have received a letter from '.Knapsack" a member of the Twen- ty sixth regiment in which the writer expresses himself very angTily in reference to a certain letter written by Capt George Case, extracts from which appeared in, the Bulletin some time ago. The chief grievance ap- pears to be that Capt. Case expressed willingness to compare his black regiment in point of drill with the Twenty sixth. and he seems to think that somehow Capt. Case has cast an aspession on the honor of the Twenty sixth.

They fig ured that the freight could not be loaded at the usual hour in time for the departure of the boat without their help. But they reckoned with out their host Instead of having their dema nds compiled with they had the pleasure of seing Capt.

SEEKS POWER TO
 OPERATE IN TWO STATES.
Charter Amendment is Asked For by Norwich and Westerly Traction Co.

Attorney Arthur l.. Shipman of Hartford appeared before the joint committee on railroads Thursday aft ernoen at the capitol at Hartford, to explain the measure under which the Norwich and Westerly Traction Go. will be able to own and operate troll ley lines in Rhode Island under it's Connecticut charter. The latter char ter must be amended 50 as to per- init this, and the resolution simply amends it to cover the point. There Is little doubt of it's favorable report by appeared to oppose this. There was no other person to say word about the matter except Mir. Shipanan.
 He told the committee that the Norwich and Westerly line had gone through bankruptcy and had been bought in for MT. Plant, or for the bondhoIderS, by H. NJ. VerTfll of Port land, Me, who had then transferred it to the reorganized company which is bringing together ali of the eastern Connecticut trolleys in MT. Plants system, eventually to be combined under the name of the Shore Line Electric Railway Co. The Norwich and Westerly operates in both Con- necticut and Rhode Island, and has from the time it was first opened, but since then it has acquired the Wester 1y city system and the suburban lines to Watch Hill and to Ashaway, R. l.. and other points, and since MT. Plant took hold of it has acquired still oth- CT properties
 In order to make the whole pro- ceeding legal it had been necessary for the Norwich and Westerly to set a charter from the Rhode Island leg islature, and this had been done at the session which recently ended at Providence The Rhode Island char ter is practically duplicate of the Connecticut charter and permits the merging of other companies with the Norwich and Westerly.
 The present Connecticut charter deosnt give quite. the powers in this regard that are desired. or not in quite the terms in which it would be most pleasing to have them stated, and the amendment favored by Mir. Ship man will de this.
