Rcssrs. Editors The long wished

adjourned, after a session of one hun
bred and four days. and the amount and
quality of legislation. 1 am told by those
who pretend 10 be judges. will compare
favorably with any Legislature Ohio has
had for many years. The adjournment
took place this, Saturday morning at
eight o'clock. Both branches were in
session nearly all night last night, so as
to finish all business of importance that
was matRred. Many bills we're passed
within the last few days that had been
previously considered, and many that
had been found wanting in merit had
been rejected. Among the latter was a
bill for the sale of the Public Works of
the State. 1t had been pretty well dis
cussed in the House. but had not quite
friends enough to save it; but 1 think
the day is not distant when they will be
offered for sale at least.
The bill to establish the "Ohio Re-
form School" was ore that passed L bad

was somewhat am ended in the Senate,

the House. and the law will, | presume,

to increase the salaries of Judges through

Although it had many warm and zeal
GUS friends and advocates. yet they
were too few to save it. 1t is said the
present law will be much more efficient
now, since jurisdiction in such cases has
been restored 10 the court of common
pleas. Much good is claimed as likely
to result from the action of grand juries
in these particular cases, which l hope

her first essay in the more permanent
form of literature.
We had seen several notices of her

owing to the fact Of the writer being a
resident Of this place. We confess to hav-
ing waited with great interest, and a
very wemanly kind of curiosity for sn
opportunity TO judge of its merits, for

is a woman's book. written by a woman,
treating Of women's matters, love, quar-
relS, reconciliatioEs, marriage, &C.
This is all true, but it is not oil the
truth. 1t is well written, by an intsuec-
tU0I woman, who treats the subjects
which she touches, in a nanner no ma
can treat them. j. is a tale of the af-
fections, of woman's affections, more
than msh's. making no pretence to be

woven in the thread of the narrative,

The scene of the story is laid in New

not intrusive, while the moral inculcated

Many characters are introduced, and
there is some similarity in the denou
ments of each, but the interest is well
maintained throughout. There is no
danger that any n will rise from its
