0TThe Legislative proceedings possess to us but very little interest We copy howevera full account of all which had been done up to the close of last week. The untying of a few matrimonial knots, and the release of prisoner or two from state prison the important acts thus far of the delegated wisdom of the State now congregated at Hartford The reappoinmsnt of judges, justices, &c is prob ably all that will be done during the residue of the session. If the appointment of judges were given to the Governor and Senate, and the election of us tces to the People, the business of the legislature might as well be completed in ten days as . month, and the expense so 'Ae State materially Iessensd.

 a1rThe abolition of slavery in Texas is now ag- tating the public mind in that country. spirit of inquiry is at work there with regard to the influence of slavery upon the prosperity of the country, and the feeling is very extensive that the apparent loss to shareholders from the emancipation ofther slaves will be more than repaid by the increased value of lands and other property. The plan is strongly op- posed by the leading Texan journals and by thepress in New-Orleans and other southern cities in the U- nited States We hope nevertheless that it may even- tualy succeed; and that the effect of the trial of mancipation there, may be the occasion of it's adop- ton at very distant day in the southern states of this Union.
