The Litchfeld Mercury gives dread
full picture of the state of society and
feeling in Manchester. Among other
facts, 1t states that the corps of yeoman-
ry, who rode over and cut down their
fellow citizens, will be broken up, and
that lists of the corps, containing the
exact names and residences of all the
members of it, with their rank, are
printed and hawked about the town, and
sold at halfpenny EACH" Such state
OF things cannot continue long. 1t is
not confined to Manchester, for the Morn
ing Chronicle expressly says, that the
same spirit of dissatisfaction pervades
all the manufacturing districts.

CIVIS.


To THE EDITOR OF THE SPECTATOR.
We have noticed that some anony-
nous writer III your paper of the 4th
INST over the signature of A Citizen,
who dates his communication from ST.
Clair county, is solicitous to know wheth-
cr " the Journals of the last session of
the legislature have been published, and
II not, why they have not" To save
you and the public any further trouble
ON the subject, we state that if there has
been any dcreliction Of duty ON this SUBJ
ject, II is exclusively our own, but be-
lieve that we, ourselves have done all in
our power to give these interesting docu-
ments to the people as early as possible.
Last winter We made contract with the
owners of paper-mill al Louisville,
Ky. for sufficient quantity of paper to
complete all the public printing, to be
dellyeed 10 US as early as practicable
we have repeatedly written to the gen
tlcmen at Louisville on the subject
they inform US that the paper has been
ready for eight months, but that the
Ohio has been SO unusually low that they
could not send it Olive have entire
confidence in the gentlemen, and from
all accounts concerning the Ohio river
for long time past, we believe they tell
US the truth.
You may assure the Citizen, Or any
other gentleman who may wish to GUST
or supplant any member Of the legisla-
ture, that the said legislature evinced no
disposition to withhold their Journals
from the scrutiny Of their fellow citi-
zens, but made the necessary arrange
ments for their publication. We state
further, that we have completed about
one hundred pages Of the Journals, but
cannot progress with the work until the
paper arrives, which we expect very
soon, and will then complete the work
with all possible dispatch.
A proposition is before the legislature
