The people Of the State have been whet'ed up
BY newspapers and by other meaqs. lie would
not vote to release the people of Montpelier, but
he could never vote to impose any rev burdens
on them
Mn SHERWOOD Of Fairfield did not wish
to have the people of Montpelier pay Tor the
State House. lie would have the State own II,
that he nigh, look on it with jus, pride aud adj
mratinn But he would entorce the bond as
pnnishmen, for hyporyicy. He di nos think
il was meant TO be paid and he wished to pun
ish the hvpo rites. He cenSured them. What
was the bond given for! The people were
tight in demanding the collection OF IT, lie
thought the people should rot be subjected to
such basting as had been given them, and as
sured the memhcrs who had done il that there
m ght DC bast ngs to be given as well as re-
ceived
Mn KELLOGG Of Brat leboro remarked
tina undo ,htedIv il was the duty of .he member
from Townshcnd to represent the feelings and
Interests OF the people Of Townshend but when
he assumed TO do ih,t for the people of Brate-
boro, he trapscended his duty and his province
He (Nr. 81 had said that the members for
Wimlham county were returned IN the year lol-
lowing the ezra session. But how had they
been returned 1t was on the bond which had
been executed; but in that next session those
members snapped their fingers at the bond on
tie floor of the House, and the people of Wind
ham county had been " whettcd up" by their
own representatives. As to the animosities and
i'll feelings excited by newspapers, it had not
been confined to one side. He himself, since
he hal been member Of this Honse, had been
bitterly assailcd by newspaper writer's living in,
or sympathzing with, Montpelier. He pre-
sumed The bond had been made in good faith
Had The money which had been paid in BY ciii-
zens of Montpelier been endorsed on the bond,
he would vote against the resolution But
nothing has been endorsed, and what is the
consequence! Why next year men will per-
haps, come up and be claiming that they had
loaned money TO the State, and demand the
payment of it. As for The bond, he was OF
the opinion that it was as colectable as any 9th
er bond.
The House refused to adop, the resolution
yeas l0S, nays 100.
