subject
The ropor; says in effect that in consequence of

contracts were entered into with Messrs. Donel-

Gideon g. Co. to do that of the Senate. These
two firms have given bonds of 100000 each, for
the faithful performance of their contracts. The
report concludes with a resolution, affirming the
power of the Committee to take such measures
as they may deem necessary to correct the evils
which are enumerated IN their report.
After a desultory and exciting debate, the
consideration Of the vote was postponed until

DR c. NJ. RuBLEE.-Tho following notice Of
a handsome and successful surgical operation
by one of our Montpelier boys, Is copied from
the Patriot. Dr. Rublee began the attainment Of
his profession under discoungng circumstances,
Just as many successful yankee boy has done
began without money, but with good char
acter, and determination to seek the best prepa-
ration the world furnishes for his profession. lie
therefore repaired to Paris, and pursued his stud
les and is now reaping the first fruits of bis am
bltion. His prospects for celebrity as a surgeon
are unusually promising. We understand that
IN operations for cataract in the eye he has been
very successful.
While IN neighboring town few weeks
since, we saw little boy who was not only Sc
unfortunate us 10 have been born with that de-
iormity called hare-hp, but the upper jaw, upon
one side, projected beyond the nose, and was
so mlsshaPen and out of place, that he presented
most repulslve spectacle That part Of the
Jaw who was deformcd has been entirely remov-
ed, and the flesh upon each side made to
unite so accurately, that now, when within
few feet of the boy, nothing of the original de-.
iormlty would be noticed in the appearance Of
his face.
This operation, we understand, was performed
upon the child by DIR. c. NJ. RUBLEE, of Mont
peller; and the success of DIR. Rublee in this
case and some others within our knowledge, IS,
'aollshes his reputation, we think, as skllllsl
and Ingenious surgical operator. Vermont fa'-
