TIME undersigned is prepared to sell COTTON
Il GINS Of the BEST quality, at So per saw
delivered at the landings Of the Charlotte, York,
and North Carolina Railroads. The advantage
these GINS have over those shipped from other
States, is that they will last longer-one sett Of
ribbs being equal to three; the brush covered
with tin instead Of cloth and being more easily
repaired, and at less expense.
As regards the speed Of the GINS, quality Of

1t is a question much mooted whether this
bapble, the Navy, is worth what it costs. The
Army and Navy are the sinks for the revenue, and
it is in vain to cry out for a reduction Of expendi-
lures while the demands for these establishments
are SO great. When Mr.. Boyce's project Of abol.
ishing the revenue laws and leaving the support
of the Government to the old quota system Of the
confederation passes, we shall be rid at once OF
three. fourths of all the objects of national expsnd-
iture.
The COMMITTEE of Commerce, of the Senate
have agreed to report a bill in conformity with
Mr.. Boyce's project so far as the abolition OF the
navigation laws is concerned. LEU.

A BLUE BIRD IN A BoTTLE.-The West Roxbury
(Mass.) Gazette gives the following item:
Zone of our ~neighbors happening to have a large
bottle, bethought himself of placing it in the
branches of a tree near his house for the birds to
build in. After a short time the members of his
family perceived Q pair of blue birds continually,
day after day, flying about and coming up to the
mouth Of the bottle, as if endeavoring to get in.
After this had lasted about a week, the gentleman
one day took a hammer up to the tree to knock the
neck off the bottle, so that the birds might enter,
when upon doing so a blue bird few out. The
poor p~risonerh had undoubtedly succeeded in making
his way in, but from the slippery ascent to the
mouth had been unable to escape, and had proba-
bly, been supported by food brought there by his
two outside brethren"

saith " the pockets of the members are by no
means emptied.'
Nr. Mathewson's resolution relating to the de-
bentures of absentees was, motion of Mr. Deane
to dismiss, summarily disposed Of.
The principal topics of discussion at present Tin
the Third House,) The onslaught Of the Rail-

trial of DR.. Tho's E. Powers and Tho's ". Sillo-
way, before the committee on State House E1pend-

The hearing, on the latter case, is in the Grand
Jury Room, which is crowded most of the time,
1t is we'll known that DR.. Powers has not consulted
Mr.. Silloway for a long time, but has employed
another architect. And now Mr. Silloway appears
before the Committee, with Hon. Chas X. Field,
of Newfane, and Hon. j. Dorr Bradley, Of Brattle-
boro', counsel, and is attempting to show inca
pacity, waste &c, on the part of the Superintend-
ent. He also charges the Superintendent with at
tempting to injure his reputation an architect,
and with falsehood. DR.. Powers has retained Hon.

may us well die now, and we may proceed to

We were happy to learn that good state
of feeling was prevalent among members in
favor Of the amendments, generally speaking,
of the School Laws of the State-to make the
schools more efficient. and to apply the
money devoted to their support by the State
in faircr and more encouraging way than
is now done
BY the bye, we doubt whether the 9th sec
ton of the act reported by the Committee
means what they suppose it does.
Some sport was expected as we heard from
an anticipated discussion on the Monkey
Bill, ~ as one termed it, which on inquiry.
we found was II bill to grant special exemp-
ton from the existing laws of the State in
regard to Circuses, shows of animals, &c. to
particular congDmeration of elephants, ze-
bras, camcls, trained ponies, balloons, and
circus-rders, which from its size is claimed by
its owners and advocates to be worthy of
special legislation in its favor from SO en-
lightened a legislature as that of Vermont.
When they grant Tin order to carry the thing
fairly out, it might be as well to give also a
dispensation from the provisions of the liquor
| laws of the State to the towns favored by
the presence of the Grand Circus, during
its stay, or to the large public houses which
will be most likely to get profit from thu
motley throngs which attend on the animals
and gather together tosee their performances
Such an exemption would, of course, save tn
officers of justice much trouble.
The bill reminds one of those harlequin
propositions which are got up in the Noel
Session of the last night of the General As
sombly. This is an odd world however
We ncvel saw any scheme, however absur
ridiculous, which could not find some ad
vocates, and we presume that bill will fin
some also.
