70 According to promise, we publish the
following article, but do not endorse several
errors therein. We ought to observe, in
justice to others, that the Burlington Free
Press dissents from the Times and, in Justice
to Montpelier, we must add that her citizens
have not instigatcd this discussion, nor have
they, so far as we know, any project to press
upon the Legislature in reference to the State
House. The State has got the new build
ing, and truly better Capitol no State in the
Union possesses and moreover, our citizens
well aware that the Legislature has the
power to do whatever It peasos in this mat
ter, and whenever it peases- sand they rest
in the expectation that, in its own good time,
il will do that which is right to Montpelier,
and honorable to the whole State

There seems to be no doubt that the new
State House is a superb cdiicc, and a credit
to the State. With the exception Of the III

combustible fixtures, the whole building UNI
