Batchcldcr, Of the House:
We think an ADLER body of men have
not been found in these important posts
for many years, if ever. Mr. Jones o
our county, it will be seen, is at the heat
of the Senate Committee on Banks
the most laborious if not most response
bio and important position in the Sen
ate. The applications for the charter o.
now banks nre very numerous, and thi,
portion of the business will engross much
of the time of the Senate. We are glad
to notice this mark of confidence IN our
Senator, who is recognized as one of the
most able and influential members of q
Senate that has seldom been stronger
or in any respect superior. Mr.. Warner
unfortunately has been detained at home
through most of the session thus far, b,
serious illness in his family. His alb
scncc, and its occasion, are much re
GREETED, Mr. Warner being one of tn,
most esteemed and most prominent m"ul
bcrs Of the Senate.
Mr.. Bcckwitb, Of Middlebury, is a
the head Of the Committee on Roads
usually position of much labor and re
sponsiblity, and having this year SOM
very important business to consider
among other matters the charter of
Railroad from St. Johnsbury to Islam,
Fond which will be warmly contested
Mr.. Beckwith of course takes hisl
rank among the members Of the House
which is one Of more than the usua
ability.
On Friday afternoon, Mr.. Dcanc wa
reelected Reporter of the Decisions @
the Supreme Court, receiving IiG vote
to 81 for Charles L. Williams and s scat
tering.

We will cndcavor to furnish a com
plctc list Of Justices of the Peace fol
the county, in our next.
The business of lcgislation-now all
that remains to be 'lonc-is getting for
ward rapidly in the House, thanks to the
promptness and readiness Of the Speaker
who is universally commended as most
capable and accomplished officer. The
Senate will also take care that their part
of the business does not lag. This is a
morhing Legislature, determined to
have its work done as soon as it can, and
60 its way. We predict that twice MS
many members of the present Legisla.
turc will be reelected next year, as arc
now in their seats, after having a place
in the last. This is sure to be a popular
General Assembly, if it goes ahead and
winds up as promptly as it has begun.
