GOVERNOR PAINE.

We find the following remarks in regard
to our present Chief Magistrate, in the Md
dlebwy Peoples Press of last week. Every
Wing in Vermont will acknowledge their
Justice. The letter to which reference is
made we published some time ago.
The following loucr from Governor Paine was writ
ten to the chairman Of the State Committee, Just pre-
vous to the assembling of the Convention at Rut-
land. But lis reading having been accldenty omitted,
i, was not nco pornted INTO the proceedings.
We cannot forepo the opportunity which il presents
of ma ing few brief remarks in relation 10 the po-
litical career of its author. Seldom has any man as
cended to the chair of state amidst such torrent Of
of unqualified abuse from his political opponents ms
did Gov. Paine. But SO uGeXcepionabe has been his
administration, so liberal and enlightened his views
in relation TO The ineres, Of the state and ably and
successfully has he sustained in his public documents
the true principles and policy of the whg party that
even the viruence of locoflcoism has been hushed
and he now retres amids, the plaudits of the whole
wing party.
But the circumstance in the political course OF Gov
Paine, the cheerfulness with which he now embrace;
the last opportunity consistent with the safety OF hi;
party, to rclnqush Office which he might have SC
easily retained, peculiarly commends him TO the esteeH
Of his fellow citizens. 1t evnces the disinterestednes
nj his character and that the partlatv Of his frend
rather than personal ambition has been the cause o
his political elevation,

THE CoMrT.-It seems that the late CO.
met made a far moro splendid show in the
skies above the great South Sea, than in
this northern hemisphere. A letter IN the
Providence Journal from Otaheite, alias
Tahiti, says Of the comet that it caused
great alarm among the natives, and adds -
at was first observed on the Cd of March, when it
appeared Of fire rising from the verge Of
the horizon to the height Of thirty degrees, illumna-
ting the Iar the eye could reach. The
tves at first thought anoighborng island was fire.
/, measured ffty-lour degrees in length and four de-
grees in breadth. 1t was supposed there that the
temperature had risen very materially from the prox
unity of the celestial vslter."
