The State House.

IN earnest and protractcd discussion upon
the Bill reported by the Committee Of Ways
and Means. approprating 100000 fcl prose-
cutting the work upon the State House, is re-
ported among the last weeks proceedings of

whether the appropriation should be availa-
be beyond limited cxtent-Sl0,000, until
Montpelier should have paid $4,000 in ful-
lillmeAt Of its pligIitc;l obligation. Certain
members seemed to be possessed of the idea
that the Bond executed by Montpelier would
never he paiI.~mlc>> paid directly for the la
Dor AID material required in making the re-
pairs: or. in other words. if the State should
once furnish the money. by loan or other
means for completing the work. it would not
be likely to reimburse itself hereafter by ask
ing or compelling payment of the Bond. They
were undoubtedly correct in their Inference.
and that for various reasons, but chiefly the
following: The State has. and should have.
too much sclt-le>rcct. too just Il sense ofwhat

require Montpelier or any other town to pro-
vide for it Capitol. Whatever may be said
alou, the propricty Of accepting 4 Bond to

ask or demand its payment. If the State
were too poor to provide its own accommo-

ETY. in Ml>winy individuals to furnish thcm.
but not even then would it be consistent with
its selirpspcct to ask such a favor. There
can be. as we conceive. no good reason as
