Legislature Adjourned

The Legislature adj. Wednesday morning
but we have received no particulars of its
doing3 for the last thirty-six hours of the
session. We shall finish our condensed &C
count Of the proceedings as given in Wal
toms journal, in our next paper.
We learn that an act was passed appro-
printing thirty thousand dollars for re-
bulldog the State House with such further
sum as the gentlemen Of Montpelier might
nay in on their bond which we presume
will be sum sufficient to prove their
H1r1li,y and good faith There was quite
a contest as TO whether fifty thousand
should be appropriated as required by the
superintendent.
IN act was passed relating to banks
giving the bank commissioner and chancel-
l1r discretion in proceeding against
banks not redceming in specie. This was
all that was done in relief Of the banks.
The WINDSOR VERMONT Journal, long
and ably conducted by Thomas Hale, Esq.
as editor and proprietor, has changed hands
SO far as ownership is concerned. L. j
Mclndoe, Esq. late Eltor of the Orang
County Journal has purchaced it. Mr.
Hale is still retained in the editorial corps
which Is rather larger than country paper
| in general urc able to maintain. Tn
Journal has been an able paper. We ar
sure it will continue to do good service il
| the Republican Cause.

q list Of men who have attained to cminencc
In the State, in the legislative halls, at
the bar and on the bench and in the business
circles Of the community, no brighter or
more honorable names can be found than
those of the persons, who from different
parts Of the State, and from different pollti-
cal parties, to the number of twenty five or
more, saw fit to express positive opinion
in Mr.. BIS favor. Those letters were
simply transferred to those who had the
appointing power, with brief note from
him stating under what circumstances he
allowed his name to be used--and saying
that if any person could be found to do the
duties more ably and faithfully, he should
be the last one to wish his namo to be in
the way of such a ones appointment.
Nothing more was done by him, and his
non-appointment was no disappointment.
lie did not expect the appointment, and
personally was glad not to have it. As to
the appointment which was made, he has
abundant evidence that it was the one
w,sted for by those most opposci to the law.
No doubt a disapprobation Of the APP.
pointment led to an alteration Of the law
last year-whereby the appointing power
was taken away from the Judges Of the SUI
preme Court and given to the Joint As
sembly-as originally proposed but to say
that Mr.. Benedict had anything to do with
the change, directly or indirectly, is false,
in the broadcast and fullest meaning vi the
word. Moreover so far from trying or wish
ing to have the Office abolished,
the Free Press contained strong express
ion from him in favor Of the lrw--os q
good one, if faithfully and ably admins
tered, and this u week before the silly and
malignant article Of the Sentinel Appeared.
The Sentinel knew its article was essential
ly false when it published it.
We have Intentionally let the slund.r e

disposition Is one which the people or the
State will thoroughly approve OF. 1t viii

. GIVE THAMES unto the Lord for lie is
good, for Ills mercy endureth forever"
Such was the pious exclamation of the
King OF Israel, and such is the utterance of
all who recognize their true relation to the
Heavenly Benefactor, " from whom cometh
every good and perfect gift"
Our fathers, cherishing this grateful
sentiment, we wont to set apart Il day,
when the ripe fruits were gathered into the
garner, to give public expression of Thanks
giving and Praise for the goodness of God
which had crowned the year.
In conformity with this revered example,
and to perpstuate this time-h onored chris.

State as a day of public THANKSGIVING,

On that day let us avoid every indulgence
subyersive of the high purpose of this pious
| custom. As becometh christian people
let us repair with willing feet to the TEN.

blessings that have marked the closing

our system Of education has minstered tC
the intellectual improvement of the peo

| for the poor and unfortunate, relieving dis
ease and want and wo and that religious
institutions have lent their powerful supper
to public virtue and order and private du
ty.
Let US give thanks for constitution anC
laws, which recognize the equality anC
fraternity of the human family, that throw
their protecting shield over the poores
and hunblest, and restrain the unjust arm
of the strongest.
Let us offer thanks for the free enjoymen
of our blessed religion, and above all fo
the hope we may cherish of future bliss
through the atonement of Chr st.
Let us bear in mind that the anniversary
which the prosperous and happy greet will

The origin or THANKSGIVING DAY. When
New England was first planted, the settlers
met with many difficulties and hardships
as is necessarily the case when civilized
people attempt t. establish themselves in u
wilderness country. Being piously dis
posed, they sought relief from heaven, by
laying their wants and trials before the
Lord in frequent set days Of fasting and
prayer Constant meditation, and discourse
es on the subject of their difficulties, kept
their minds gloomy and disconnected, and +,
like the children Of Israel, there were many
disposed to return to the land which perse-
cution had determined them to abandon.
At length, when il was proposed In the
assembly to proclaim another fast, far
me- of plain sense, rose and remarked, that
the inconvenience they had suffered, and
concerning which they had SO often wearied
heaven with their complaints, were not 50
great as might have been expected, were
diminishing every day as the colony
strengthened; that the earth began to re-
ward their labors, and to furnish literally
for their sustenance, that the seas and
rivers were full of fish the air sweet, the
climate wholesome above all they were in
the full enjoyment of liberty, civil and re-
ligious lie therefore thought that reflect
ing and conversing on these subjects would
be more comfortable, as tending to make
them more contented with their situation
and it would better become the gratitude
they owed to the Divine Being, if instead
OF fast, they should proclaim a thanks
giving. His advice was taken and from
that day to this, they have in every year
observed circumstances Of public happiness
sufficient to furnish employment for
Thanksgiving day.

STATE LAWS ABOVE L. S. LAWS The
publisher of the Sabbath Record, Q Baptist
paper in New York, has received the fol-
lowing letter from the Postmaster at Jane =
lew, Lewis county, Ky.
Dear Sir; have been notified to exam
inc your PAPER, and find it contrary to the
laws of this State to hand it out of my Office.
You had better discontinue the paper. Your
subscribers here are Rev. Samuel ID. Davis,
and p. Pond | shsll retain your paper
and not hand it out of my Office
NJ. W. BALL, p. NJ
A President who retains in office O post
master who refuses to comply with the
United States law because it conflicts with
the State law, is setting an example of in
subordinaton that is fatal to all law.
The law of the United States gives the sub
scriber to the Sabbath Recorder the right to
receive his paper through the mails the
laws of Kentucky, as the postmaster con-
struos them, forbid 1T and he obeys the
law Of tho State and dsregards that of
Congress; and Mr.. Buchanan endorses his
conduct by retaining him in the office which
he thus abuses. Suppose an executive
officer should refuse to catch a runaway mig
ger, because the State law prohibit it -
lcould,li he march Wouldn't the Union
be in danger'-Prov. Journal,

The sort of men who compose the Lc-
compton Convention is to be seen from their
action on the subject of Slavery. 1t is re-
ported by the correspondent of the n, Y

The n. Y. Times contains q corrcsp0n-
dence between }, II. Lane G.. W. Brown
anc Richard Realf on one part, and GOV,
Walker ana Secretary Stanton on TIE other
The first named say they have heard that
violence was threatened against the Cover
nor and his Secretary for throwing out the
fraudulent Oxford returns. They invite
them to Lawrence and Promise them " Il
hearty welcome and full protection from all
who would crueh them, and trample On the
dearest rights of the people Of Kansas 4"
Gov. Walker and Secretary Stanton reply
that fifteen or twenty persons al LecOmpton
did indeed denounce them but they were
not aware of threats Of personal violence
and had no fears on that score. Therefore
they "must decline the invitation with siu
eere thanks for the hospitality 70 kindly
proifered " They say further "From The
period Of our entrance into t4is Territory
it has been our determination, sO far a.
within our power, to enable the people Of
Kansas, in the true meaning Of the Organic
law, to control their own government; and
to this policy VIC shall continue stcadiastly

News FROM KANsAs.-A letter in the
Democrat, dated Lccompton, Nov. 4, says
that Walker had left there few days be-
fore, and his destination was thought to be
Washington, II is stated that Walker s
object in stationing the troops at Lecomp-
ton was not exactly to protect the Conyen-
tion, nor to watch and DO prepared for any
action his Pro slavery enemies might make
against him, but because the Legislature
having large Free-Stato majority, they
will probably repeal the obnoxious laws and
deposc the Office holders in which cnse a
repetition of the bloody scenes in the early
history of the Territory 10 apprehended. -

FIRE.-About half past one O'Clock Tues
day =. NJ. smoke was seen issuing from the
rear of the house occupied by Rev. Mr.,
Walker, corner of Union and Main streets.
The alarm WAS given and the flames quickly
extinguished. The IRE appears to have
caught in closet just behind the chimney
from which it spread to the floor above
There was no one in the house at the time,
Mr.. Walker and his wife being in ESSEX
and the children in whose charge it WAS
left, having quilted the house about fifteen
minutes before. No damages was done
beyond burning the casing of the kitchen
and the ceiling above.

No State Debt.

We sec by Walton's journal that bill
is introduced for an appropriation Of fifty
thousand dollars applicable to the constitute
ton of the State House, but we do not see
any account of bill for a tax t. meet it,
or Of an intention to introduce orc.
Taking the present aspect Of the case in
| connection with the bill passed some days
ago authorizing the Treasurer to borrow
for a term of years at SIX per cent. 100000
it looks to US as if the State vas about u
be saddled with 4 permanent debt We
hope our legislators will be wise in time
If they don't the work Of repentance VIII
be heavy one, they may be assured. Those
who are willing to shuttle Of the RESPONSE
bilities Of the time, and to begin policy
which will, if once begun. bring - long
train Of disaster after it, worse for tie state
than the loss of dozen State Houses, must
look out for heavy condemnation hereafter.
The State has had one experience which
ought not to be forgotten. When the for
MGR State House was built, the money for
most of the expense was borrowed irom
what was then called "thc School Fund,
