mass of the Maseachu sets Free-Soilers should
have mixed themselves up with the unclean thing,
have not thut my eyes to the great good to the
country and the State which they have so skill
fully contrived TO extract from it. The election
of Wilson, the rebuke Of Loring and the enact
ment of the Personal Liberty bill, are ample CON-
persatious for the seandalous doings of the Num-
nery Committee, the opprobrium OF which belongs
10 one or al most TO few individuals, and not 10
the legislature or those BY whom it was elected.
The legislature of the great Amerlc an party
Of the state" as the Know. Nothing Organ, The
Boston Bee calls ii this morning, will adjourn on
Nouday-unless something unforeseen should turn
I'D TO prevent. The making up OF the payroll
being under discussion to-day in the House, Mr..
Vose of Boston mot Rose as you printed 1t IN
former letter., who is familiarity known as - Gov
"ernOr" yose, from having once been the Native
American candidate for the Chief Msgistrscy, bat
more familiarly as Putty" Vose, because he deals
in that article whose diurnal price is 80 often in
aured after-Mr yose, say who has consistently
opposed the Liquor Law in all it's stages, asked
the House how much the Boston members were 70
receive for nileage for their travelling expenses.
He was answered that it would depend on
whether they walked TO the State House IN
straight or zig. gag line Under this regulation
YOU see the members who like the Nunnery Com
mittee INDUCED generously in champagne and gin,
have manifest advantage.
The fate Of the Personal Liberty bill is yet IN
certain. Ii is not known whether the Gov
ernor will veto it, Gardner deserves credit for
one statesman-lke quality-reserye He keeps his
own counsel, that the best-nforned of our poll
tcians can only conjecture what he wlld until II
is DONE Ii is supposed that be will be guided by
tie advice of his Att0rney-GeneTal, Ex-Governor
Clifford who is somewhat Huukersh in his ten
denotes and viii probably pronounce the bill uu-
constitutional If vetoed, | think il VIII pass by
two-thiIds vote.
But truce to politics II is said in scientific
circles in Cambridge that Lieut.. Jones of the
Navy las discovered by observations on the 20
diacal light that the Earth has ring Ike Sat
urns Prof Pierce, am told considers the fact
established Pierce you know has demonstrated
or thinks be has with the aid of the observations
at the Cambridge Observatory, that Saturn's ring
is fluid instead of being solid as hitherto supposed
/ do not understand why, if the Earth has a ring
as | sincerely hope she has, We do not see II. IL
may be. however, Of so ethereal aud attenuated a
nature as not to be visible to US insiders, though
the outsiders on the other planets if they have tel
escapes, nay see il as We see the ring Of Saturn
Perhaps the Inhabitants of this side of the moon,
ii there be any, may see it with their naked eyes
The only information that we have OF the appear
ance of Saturns ring 70 the people Of that planet
is from SweGenborg, who says that he talked with
spirits from Saturn, who told him that the ring
looked like something whitish in the sky-some-
thing like snow, they said. They did not seem to
know that It was ring from which infer that it
is not seen very distinctly Last night after hear
ing of Lieut. Joness discovery, looked in vain for
something whiiish" n our SKY. There was
nothing Of the sort to be seen.
