~ The Hartford Republican, the
editor of which is Free Soil Democrat,
has the following on the last Legislature.
1t is rather severe, but the editor being
a Hartford man, and good Democrat,
ought TO know as much about bribing
and log rolling operations as anybody
The Legislature has adjourned, sine
die--thank God ! 1t is better fitted tc
make hay than laws, therefore, we are
glad to see it about its proper business
We doubt if a more corrupt or ignorant
body of men ever before sat within the
Legislative Halls of Connecticut. There
has been more lobbying, more bribing-
We don't mean with money! more button
holeing this session than during any Other
within the memory of " the Oldest inhab,
liant" Brides were offered to the mem.
bers by the Railroad Companies, to star
with, in the shape of free passages, and
it would be difficult 10 enumerate the
various modes in which monied corpo,
rations have endeavored to seduce The
Legislature from the path of duty. Laws
have been passed. resciuded, aud repass,
ed, as collection Of boys might have
done. The veto of the Governor has
been enough to change the vote of half
the members upon any measure; as il
his veto could alter tie propriety or
Justice of q bill.

rs A Rattlesnake with eleven rattles
was killed by boy, near the residence
Of Mr.. Aaron T. Dimon, in Reading, on
the 2lst ult. The children OF Mr.. D. had
been playing in the yard but short
time previous to the discovery of the
reptile. A snake with thirteen rattles
was killed by little girl belonging to the
family, near the same spot, three years
ago. ~ sH& -. ea

- The construction Of the plank
road from Falls Village to Wllcston on
the Harlem Railroad, is likely to produce
a serious effect on the Housatonic Road,
as it will draw off the patronage of some
of the largest capitalists and manufactur.
ers in that region. The idea of building
the plank road, we believe originated
with Horatio Ames of Falls Village, in
consequence Of an increase in the price
of Transporting freight over the Housa>
tonic Railroad. Mr.. A. is one of the
largest iron manufacturers in Connect
icut. and pays $4,000 year to the
Railroads, and this will be a serious loss
to the Housatenic Company. TO accom-
modate him, the Co. built track across
the river at Falls Village and run their
cars directly into his Forge, receiving the
huge iron shafts and cranks from the
elevators within the building. If he
continues to refuse 10 send his freight
over this Road, the construction of the
track and the incidental outlays will be
total loss to the Railroad Company. A
number Of other large capitalists WHO
each of them pay no. less than $4,000
per year to this Company, have also
determined 10 take TO aud receive their
freight from the Harlem Railroad, on
account Of the increased rates of freight
decided upon by the Directors of the
Housatonic Road.
A new impulse has been given 10 The
iron business by the rise in British iron,
and the furnaces in this region are all
doing well.
The Government have contract with
the Lee Marble Quarry Company for all
the marble they can supply for three
years to come, to be used at Washington
for the Capitol enlargement, but it is
poor article. The transportation Of this
forms quite an item in the freight Of the
Housatonic Road, but does not compare
with the loss occasioned by the with>
drawal Of the iron interests.
