FOR VERMONT NEwspApERs.

The Vermont delegation in Congress will
be Obliged to editors in Vermont if they will
state that the distribution of seeds by the
Patent office has been suspended, and that
Congress at the last session did not make the
usual provision for the Congressional Globe
for members Of the House of the present
Congress. The quota of Patent Office Re
ports agricultural and Mechanical and also
of the Smithsonian reports and some other
books, has been materially reduced and in
one instance (Emory's Report this reduction
has been made in the second volume, so that
majority Of those who have had the first
volume, cannot have the Second. This will
explain the reasons why Members Of Con-
gross do not and cannot extend their courtesy
to their constituents To so great an extent as
has been usual, and as they would be glad to
do.

an improvement in that class Of sewing ma

We would call attention TO the admirable
style Of frescoing in the New Uniycrsalist
Church in Mortified. W.. by Mr.. a. H..
knight Of Warren, n. H. Mr.. Knight has
had l years experience in frcscoing Churches,
Halls, Parlors, Stores, &c, and is work.
man that we can recommend to the favorable
notice Of those who desire work Of this kind.
We have seen much irescoing in various
places where we have travelled, but consider
this work in the Univorsalist church in North
field equal to the work OF the best artists in
our country. Mr.. knight has displayed great
taste in the execution Of his designs. and
justly receives the commendation OF all lovers
OF the fine art We hope Mr.. knight may
be retained in our State, and find employ
ment IN this incompatible method of orna-
menting Halls and Churches, as but little Of
the kind has ever been done in Vermont.
