PROTEST. AGAINST THE PASSAGE Ion

PROTEST AGAINST THE PASSAGE OF
THE WARREN BRIDGE BILL.
The undersigned members of the House
OF Representatives of the Commonwealth Of
Massachusetts, protest against the passage
of an act authorizing John Skinner and 9th
ers to erect another Bridge over Charles
River, for the following reasons -
First Because, in their opinion, neither
the public necessity nor convenience REQUIRE
another bridge in the place contemplated in
the said act
Second. Because it appears by the report
of the Committee to whom the petition of
John Skinner and others was committed.
that the necessity of relief from the burden
of paying tolls, which the public now nav
at Charles River Bridge" was admitted in
evidence in support of said petition, and it
was stated by a member of that Committee
to this House, that the amount of tolls re-
ceived by the proprietors of that bridge was
one of the ingredients of the public convent
ence and necessity upon which the Commit
tee founded their report.
Third. Because the granting of another
bridge over Charles River, so near to Charles
River Bridge as essentially to iniure the va
lue OF the property of the proprietors of said
bridge, without providing any indemnity for
said Corporation, is in the opinion of the un-
dersigned aviolation of the existing rights of
said Corporations breach of the public faith,
and tends to diminish the confidence in, and
lessen the security of, the rights of property.
Fourth. Because, in the opinion of the
undersigned, the Legislature have no right
to obstruct an important navigable river by
another bridge, when the same is not requir-
ed by public convenience and necessity,
"apart from any consideration of tolls.n

GENERAL COURT. A friend has given us
the following statement, from the payroll
of Members of the House of Representa-
tives, for the session just closed, of the
amount paid to the members of each coun-
ty. 1t will be perceived from this state
ment, that the Warren Bridge has levied
heavy assessment on the State, for the pay
ment of members sent here to carry that
measure. The county of Middlesex receiv-
ed more than a sixth part of the amount paid
to the members from the whole State
The statement also shows the amount of
charge for the present year, compared with
each preceding year, since the separation of
Maine from the State.-Bost. d. Ado.

ANATOMY OF DRUNK MN Ess.

The last number Of LHtcEs Museum, con.
tains Il review, from BinckU0Ods .Nagdziae,
Of DR. MACSTsH's ANATOMY or DRuSK-
ENNEss, which, Judging from the specimen
we are inclined 10 think one of the most curl
ons books lately published. The Reviewer is
admirably suited 10 hls author, and both seen.
to understand their subject thoroughly. The
latte! has probably acquired his knowledge by
observation. The former would, perhaps,
boast that his is derived from experience.
An extract or two may not be unacceptable
10 Cur redders--noi for their own use, as we
are aware that no tppcr would read so sober
paper as Gurs-but TO strengthen them in the
admoniiion Of those who NAV need it.
Some Of the Doctors remarks on the causes
Of drunkenness we have heard a thousand
tmes-for example;
" Some become drunkards from excess of
Indulgence in youth. There are parents who
have n common custom Of treating their chill
drsn 10 wine, punch, and other intoxicating
liquors. This, IN reality, is regularly bring ng
them up IN an apprenticeship to drunkenness
:" Men who aro good singers are very apt to
become drunkards, and, in trmb, most of them
are so, more or less, especially If they have
naturally much lovialiy or warmth Of tempe
rament fine voice TO such men Is a fatal
accomplishment"
To the first Of these opinions tho Reviewer
expresses his hearty assent. II IS worth giving
in his words
What more loalhsoHe than 10 see a Iout
and loblolly o. schoolboy. probably booby of
his class, standing behind his papa's chair, in
eager expectation Of the customary RUNNER of
punch The old fool asks hun for a toast too;
and with an apoplec,ical laugh shakes his sides
