DEAR SIR-He who is determined TO

or Taste, is frequently under the necessity
of removing he rubbish that lncumbers
the ground upon which be intends 10

of previous architecture, bIackened and
moss-grown from years of exposure--ds-
joinlcd and mangled from decay. All
this must be removed, and the earth pre-
pared for the new edihce. that is TO sand

So he who would incuIcate new truths,
has a Herculenn abor before him. 10 re-
remove mental Instructions aud opposing
prejudices. And allow me 10 add, tina,
he " no would imblbe new truths aud act
upon them, has heavy task to perform {;
to remove the decayed and crumbIing
mass, that has so long mad possession Of
his mind.
1t would seem necessary to pause mo-
menI, before approaching the main issue
in he lheme OF our CORES oudencr, TO re-
move one or two obstacles that stand IN
The way OF our easy progress, and that we

FIRE. A coal house attached to the
Furnace Of Conant Trask & Co, in this
village was destroyed by fire on the
morning Of Monday last. The fire was
first discovered about o'clock among the
coal brands, with which the building was
about half filed, but, the wind blowing
fresh, before any one could get the
FIRE the building was all in flames BY
the exertions of our citizens, another coal
house nearly filled with coal, standing
within twenty feet Of the burning pile,
and connected by shed, was saved from
destruction.
Josiah Rossetter ,and Levi Briggs were
knocked down by falling timber, the
former was carried from the ground in

jured, and is fast recovering. The latter
escaped with bruise or two, and cut

build Railroad from Burlington to Ca
NADIA Line, connecting with the Rutland
and Central Roads to Boston; and this
charter covers the valley of Lake Cham
plain north from Burlington. Another
Company was chartered with the right to
build Railroad from the south line Of
the State 10 the MOUTH oF WHITE RIVER;
and this charter covers the valley of Con-
nectcut River south from the Mouth of
White River. II therefore, the resou-
tons, as matter OF opinion, were an
I" assault" on the Central Char these
two bills, as solemn legislative enacIments,
were an assault" on that charter of a
somewhat graver and more c6tCtire de
scrptionl Bot in neither case was there
any assault on the Central Charler.-
That charter now possesses all the right
it ever had by its terms, and is confined 10
that right, TO wi, TO construct a road "irom
some point on Lake Champain 10

venieni 10 connec. with the Concord and

But further. The Wa,chman saws,
" The last Che resoutions) was the only
really exciting question in the House,H
1t is possible that the act, directing the
several Listers 10 place in the lists the
shares of the stockholders of The Central
aud other railroads for taxation, caused no
" excitement in the House. Indeed We
know no reason why so just and proper
measure should cause any excnemen, any
where. But we are correctly informed,
that The friends OF the Central road waited
upon that bill, in its passage through the
Senate, with intense "cxcitement." We
happen 10 know that the most strenuous
efforts were made by the Contra interest
10 defeat that bill in the Senate. And if
he resolutions of Mr.. Swift were "tbe
only really exciting question in the
House." so it may be said that the act res
hitting to the Grand List was "the only
really exciting question" in the Senate.
La which case there was most occasion
Tor excitement remains to be seen. Mr..
WALTON says he "shall give history Of
he matter whenever necessary" The
public will Judge from the errors Of his
Prospectus" as to the probable veraci:y
Of the History; and he will find. wilhou,
doubt. that othsr historians will be found,

'pGe wild wave shall dimpe with pleasure and pride,
As thy beauties reflected are on It's tide;

1hat the bud Of the should Just open and die;
That Spring the best Of love, should depart,
And the voice Of the turtle no more touch tie heart!

Insurance AGAINST BURGLARY. We learn
from the New York Courier and Enquirer, that
they have in that city, an institution, called the
Equitable Insurance Company, which insures
houses, during the absence of families, against
the depredations of thieves, with which we are
abundantly supplied 1t is not what burglars
carry from houses, that causes the great anxiety
to those who are absent, but the destruction Of
uatuable furniture, which cannot be removed,
as mirrors, SOFAS carpets, &C., which they often
destroy recklessIy, when disappointed in not
obtaining silver, which no prudent person will
leave exposed, when it cin be deposited in the
vaults Of bank. The premium of one per
cent. is certainly high when compared with
fire risks, and would be much lower were there
more who employ the Company; still it is very
satisfactory to know, that for $40, any proba-
BILE amount Of depredations would be returned
to the loser.

SURPLUS LABOR AT PITTsBuRG. The New
York True Sun publishes letter from gen.
tleman of Pittsburg, in which he says:
81 request that you will not give encourage
ment to either laborers or mechanics to come
on here; at this hour there are more than
enough, the proof of which consists in the pr-
ces OF labor. Lahoring men receive but from
62 l-2 to 10 cents per day, and carpenters are
at this time demanding the ten hour system of
daily occupation, and receiving from ST .25 to
Sl.37 l-2 day. Working men are rushing
here because Of false statements published re-
specting high wages, and many of them deplore
their error in leaving where they had been pre-
viously employed. If it were not for the sur
plus labor at this time offered, the ten hours
labor system could be attained"
