THE LEGISLATURE ADJOURNED.

The Legislature adjourned ON Tues.
day night, at early candle highland it
gives us pleasure to state, that we have
never witnessed a more friendly and af-
tectionate parting. All sense of party
was distinguished in the feelings of the
moment. Ali the little chickering's of a
protracted session were g0ne-and Wing
and Democrat, the Delegate from the
sea shore and from the Banks of the Ka-
nawha, the young and the old, greeted
each other at parting, and exchanged
the warmest wishes Of overlooking hearts.
The lndiscreet declarations of one Of
Its members. before the assembled Peo-
PIE OF his country. compellsu us again TO
pay passing tribute to the private con-
duct and public qualifications of, the
members. We have never known a
more moral 1--WE dare to say. so moraN,
body of Legislators. We speak, Of
course, without distinction of parties.
The Legislature were in session ia
days-during which time, they have pas
sed $50 iaws-of which we have this dav
commenced the Sketches. and shall con-
clude them in our next paper-besides
variety OF resolutions. In the course of
the session, 27l bills were brought in
and passed to various stages of lesisia-
ton. OF course, '1Cl bills were reiec-
ted-or sleep the sleep of death on the
table OF the House. A variety ofreso-
lrtlons were brought in, many of which
were lost on the way-side. MANY Of
these resolutions were rejected. before
they could assume the shape of bills,
ana yet. they occupied considerable
time OF the House, both when they were
originality submitted, and when they were
reported back to -them-and when thew
were under the consideration of their
respective committees. 1t is very rare
~, indeed, that we have seen SO many
measures brought forward, occupying the
time OF the members in committees, and
consuming the time of the House. And
yet these abortive measures make no fig
uFe IN the Sketches nor on the Statute
nooK. These eftete resolutions, for
which the Wings are as much, if not
more accountable. than theRepublicans
and this large bundle of bills, sleeping:
upon the table, or rejected in transitu,
account, in great part, for the procrasti-
nation OF the session-for, most of them,
IN many stages of their action, were dis
cussed, and voted down-and we are as
sured' by gentiemen who are ,conyersant

l have been requested to give my views in
relation to the Tax bill of the late Legislature
have not the bill before me, but from ms,
knowledge of it conceive it, taking into CO..
siderat'on the embarrassed state of the cour.
try extremely onerous and impolitic, 6. should
never have been passed. IF the financial con
ditlon OF the country continue, as it has beer
should be decidedly opposed to any higher
tax than would be necessary to raise a revenue
sufficient for the support of our government,
administ cred upon plan Of the strictest eco.
norny. and to pay the interest on our debt
conseunentlv, should be in favor of reducing
the pay Of members in the proportion in
which the tax PAYERS income is reduced, and
shortening, very greatly, the time consumed
by the session of orr Legislature. This, sir.
is not said in the spirit of demagogism, for had
l been in the Legislature two or three years
ago, when every class Of the community seem
ed to be prospecting, should have opposed
the reduction of the members pay. If the
members Of the Legislature had even included
amongst the subjects of taxation, their own
salaries, then indeed, the present tax bill
might seem TO be less ubiquitous. There are
tther'questions of state policy which should
like to give passing notice, but the length Of
his notice, laready much longer than had
intended it should be,) precudes the idea of
my saying more; therefore commit my fate,
without another word on this occasion, to the
discretion Of generous people, and viii sub
nit to their decision without murmur.
Respectfully, Yours,

staying away from the polls. The great
number of precinct elections will enable
most of US, # not all, to give vote, by
losing only hail day or less. No one
need lose a whole DAY.

Gratis of Shenandoah. in the struggle OF
1927 between Powell and Allen. which
is fresh in the memory Of all. we put
forth our strength when the principles
were moi SO important as those involved
in this election. En-1840 the principles
of the contest were the same as now, ex-
cept that the whig principles are more
Objectionable now than in 1910.
Shenandoah is looked TO by wings and
democrats: by wings, in the vain hope Of
seeing that we are not as firm as we have
always been; and by demacrats. in the
confident expectation that the county
will be equal to herself. Let us then
rally every man to hrs post. Let the
Van Buren, committees Of vigilance with

Ir. Taylor opened the discussion, by
eomplimentins the sod Zenth'' for her
efficient aid in securing this state to the
democratic candidate for the presidency
in 1870 lie then proceeded 10 give q
brief history Of the promises which the
wing party held out to the American pco-
pie before The last presidential election,
and cGhtraste'i their conduct with those
promises, since their accession to power.
The leading measures Of the whig party.
such as National Bank, Protective
Tariff, Distribution, &C., were then
touched nnon, He did not believe Ma
tionai Bank TO be constitutional, nor did
he believe, as did his worthy opponent,
that tie existence of such an institution
would have SO magica5 an Influence in
restoring The PROSTATE credit and miii-
eating those harrassing embarrassments
which pervade the country Throughout its
length ana its breadth. The argument
Of the wings, that National Bank would
equalze the exchanges Of the country,
was noticed. Mr.. Taylor referred to
different periods in our. government du-
ring the existence of National Bank, to
prove that there was as great an inc
quality existing in the exchanges as had
existed at any period when there was no
Bank. In regard to q Protective Tariff,

Pooerless Man and Omnipoient Insect.-At .
late meeting ofthe National institute, ut Washing.
ton. Capt. George W.. Hughs. of the U. States
board of Typographical Engineers, read paper
on the subject of the stone OF which the great Ply
mouth England Breakwater is constructed, spe.
cimens, of which have been presented to the Insti
tute by T. w. Fox, Consul Of the United States
at Plymouth.
Mr.. H. says that this work when completed
will contain about $780, 900 tons of stone, at t,
cost Of nearly fl,5OOO 900, including the accesar,
works. All the rock employed in the structure
is limestone obtained in the neighborhood.-
The eminent engineer who planned this work
was of the opinion that the limestone would Prov
an enduring material; but subsequent experience
has shown that he was in great error in reference
to its durability in salt water, owing to the rava.
ges to which it is exposed from the attack of ,
small SHE'LL fish, which perforates it in all direc
tons, and gives to the stone honey comb, ap
poarance. By this process of destruction rhi.
immense structure is slowly but cert ainly crum
bling to decay. 1t is stated on semi official au
thorty that hundreds Of tons are destroyed by the
shell fish every year.
Not only can these tiny insects, or shell fisl
thus overthrow the most massive of mans works
but as in the West Indian seas, they can erec
vast labyrinths of coral groves and coral islands
such mans power is wholly unequal to.

ated both man and the insect.-[N. Y. Ameri

Erial Voyage across the Ocean.--Mr. Wise,
the aeronaut, announces, through the columns of
the Lancaster lntelligencer. that he intends to
make an serial trip across the Atlantic in a bal.
loon in lS44, and cautions all mariners on the O.
cean not to be the least alarmed they see him float
ing in the atmosphere. He says that his long ex:
Perience in Rrostatics has convinced him that a
regular current of air is blowing at oil times from
w. to E. with a velosity of from twenty to forty
miles per hour, according to its height from the
earth; and having discovered composition which
will render silk or muslin impervious to hydrogen
gas, so that ballon may be kept afloat for many
weeks, he feels confident, with these adyanta pes.
that trip across the Atlantic will not be attended
with as much real danger as by the common mode
of transition.
The balloon is to be one hundred feet in dame
ter, which will give nett ascending power of
twenty five thousand pounds being amply suffi.
cient to make every thing safe and comfortable.
"A sea-worthy boat is to be used for the car,
which is to be depended on, in case the balloon
should happen to fail in accomplishing the voyage.
The boat would also be calculated upon in case
the regular current Of wind should be diverted
from the course by the influence Of the ocean. or
