Letter from Montpelier.

MONTPELIER, Nov. 1st, 1859.
Mr.. EDITOR According to your re-
quest send few notes, to tell the peo-
pie what their SERVANTS are doing at the
capitol. During the first two weeks Of
the session, the attention of the House was
mainly taken up with bill taxing dogs.
This bill was introduced by Mr.. Gleed,
of Morristown. Whether his purpose
was to raise a revenue for the State, to
get the dogs killed off, or merely to make
sport for the House, it is difficult to tell,
as the debate has been of half-serious,
half-comic character, and has ended in
nothing as yet.
In the Senate, also, the doings have
been of a like trivial character, much of
the time having been taken up in talking
about amendments to bill providing for
watering no ughs by tie highways
Neither of these bills bave yet been dis
posed OF, but remain to occupy the atten-
ton of the two Houses, when they wish
for little spoIt, rather than att e n d
seriously to the business for which they
were sent here.
There has, however, been an impor.
tant measure brought before the legiSIa,
ture. 1t is the subject Of paying, State,
Attorney, Judges of Probate, Probate
Registers, and County Clerks, salaries
instead of fees. The Governor recon-
menGed this, as you will recollect, in the
case of States Attorneys, thinking there
by to diminish the expense of crimina
! prosecutions for the State. The examin
alton of the subject, thus far, is said t.
show, that there has been in many case,
such system of peculation as is really
disgrace to the State, that there has beer
no uniformity in the charges of State
Attorneys in the different counties, or o
different--in the same county, j. c
the States Attorney for one county tn
past year, charged over thirteen hundre
dollars, while in another and larger c, unit.
the charge was about three hundred
Such facts as this,have walked up the ,Cis
Legislators of the State to the subject, an
it seems to be the general impression
that, while the subject is in hand it is hes
to make clean sweep of it, and tax
away the chances for fraud in all thes
cases. The present prospect is, that bill
will be passed, providing for salaries fc
! all these officers.
= A bill has passed both branches of til
Z legislature providing for the erection
: the State House of a statue of Etha
( Allen, the hero and father of the State
D Though the open ground in the Sta
House Yard would seem to be more al
r propriate place for such a statue, yet it
b undoubtedly better TO have it shut u
S than not to have it at all.

Mr.. Gidding's Speech.

Hon. j. K. Gidding's lately made
speech in Philadelphia, of which the fol-
losing is the conclusion. We think it
possesses great vigor of expression -
These despotic acts have aroused the
spirit of the people, and there is in Sc
rious truth an 'irrepressible conflict now
in progress it is that irrepressible con-
hict between freedom and slavery which
has been in progress for centuries; it is
one Of those revolutions which never 60
backward. Our statesmen have misap-

mentS, that have attempted to rule a free
people by brute force, instead of just
administration of legitimate powers
They have preferred the crime Of slavery
to the God given rights ofliberty. They
have trampled upon the rights of our
free States to obtain political favor with
the slave power. They have stained the
soil Of our free States with innocent
blood
Men are captured in our Northern
villages, their limbs manacled, and they
are carried to slavery, as though our ter
ritory lay upon the African coast, subjec
TO the pollution of slave-dealing pirates
while the stars and stripes, those emblem
Of liberty, are prosiituted to the protection
ofan execrable commerce in human flesh
The Indignation of our people is awaken

no man mistake or Jbelittle that feeling
It has long been foreseen all reAectin,

years | have constantly pointed it out t.

it. Those in power understand that

keep silent let demagogues no longe

dalton is gone by 4; all must see that if til
cause Of excitement continues, the excite
ment will not cease. But of the future
will no longer speak. 1t is written upo
