New bon,c Of the state House

The Architect OF the State House has just
finished beautiful design Of the contemplate.
ed change in the Cupola Of the State House,
which improves the appearance Of the entire
building beyond all comparison. The sentry
box, or pilt house plan adopted originally,
is to he abandoned, and neat dome, n feet
8 inches in diameter, which will form nearly
an ellipsoid on the exterior, rising from the
circular buse SO feet 8 inches, to crowning
section or lantern, 81 feet IN diameter, and
II feet inches high, is to be erected instead
thereof, which improved design we trust the
Legislature will examine and instruct the
Commissioners of the State House at once
to adopt. The Dome is broken up with
ribs and deep recess panels, which gives it a
pleasing and commanding effect. The frame
work is TO be wrought iron covered with cop.
per, the crowning section to be Of cast iron.
The top OF the lantern will be "a feet in
diameter, which is to form stylight, thro'
which the Rutunda below will be lighted
The bideous clay colored bake oven which
has annoyed the eye and good taste of the
beh6lder, il this new plan is adopted, will be
taken down; and a Dome erected which will
harmon re with the design of the entire build
ing, and will give to the people OF the State
some little teputat on for architectural tuste.
One reason for making this desirable change,
we ure told, is to avoid the heavy weights
that wcull be upon the foundation if finished
upon the old plan; as tie walls have already
tracked and have had to be replaced with
heH ones. The weight of the new Dome
viii not lie One half as heavy as the original
design. The perspective drawing of the
whole building, including steps and terraces,
and the lawn in front; also including the
proposed change in the Cupola, will be lilho.
gruphet Immediately If adopted, and the pub.
lie will have the opportunity of judging tor
the great superiority Of the new plan over
the old one. The memBers Of the Legisla.
tufe, especially the Committee on State
Buildings, would do we'll to call in at the
Architects Office, and examine the splendid
drawing Of this new md beautiful design.-

J.P. Donnelly was hanged in New Jer.
sey last week, for the murder Of Albert H
Moses. He made a speech. able and elo-

which he repeatedly declared his innocence.
From the New York Tribune we gel some
interesting facts in the case. Donnelly
was but 24years Of age, belonged to Wash.
ington City, and occupied respectable po.
si,ion in society. He was medical student
and as relief from hard study, took a tenn

at watering place called Sea View House.

southern Opinion.

The following extract from an article in
late number OF the New Orleans Bulletin,
a Southern paper of great ability, shows how
the attempt to force The Redemption Consti.
tuition upon the people of Kansas is regarded
in that quarter of ths Union by an unpreju.
diced witness:
at will be recollected that early in the
season we rebuked that violent. unjust, and
despotic spirit that would cram slavery in
Kansas down the throats Of its people against
the will of an overwhelming majority; and
showed that the only possible reasou
there could be for withholding the question
Of slavery or no slavery from the bona .fdc
voters of The Territory when about to assume
the functions of sovereign State, must be
the fear that the said majority would pro
nounce against the institution. We chal

REMOVAL OF TRE "REToRMEk. ."-Ths
publication of the RetormsF has been dis.
continued in this village; and is to be re.
moved, as stated in it's last issue, to Nc.
Granville. New York. The prospect Of an
increase Of patronage In that vicinity, is
said to be the cause of the removal.
RELreIoUs MEETINss.-A series Of eVen-
Ing meetings is being held in the Methodist
church of this village, which ore said to be
we'll attended by those in search Of spiritual
blessings. We notice by our exchanges
that similar meetings are in progress at
Cleveland, Youngstown, Poland; Salem
and DucJrus. ,... Ell.
SERIOUS AccfDENT.-We learn that on
yesterday morning, while Mr.. HARVEY
CASE. residing in the south western portion
of Edinburg, was engaged in Telling tree
which had beSn lodged the Day previous, he
met with on accident that almost proved
fatal. It appears that Mr.. CASE, thinking
the tree would fall in the direction he had
inclined it, stood on the opposite side, when
the tree being hollow, it broke, and a parr
of it struck him on the head and shoulder
inflicting severe wounds. He was taken
up insensible and conveyed TO his house

spiritual world, which ore now going on
would not produce spiritual changes in the
minds of men, but would produce 'changes
in the air, and apparent changes in the sun
