sylvania avenue, was found dead in the bed where
it had been sleeping with its mother. Coroner

an imposing and beautifying effect to this part of
the city.

The VERMONT PERSONAL LIBERTY ACT.-We doubt
if the public generally are faly informed of the
action which the Legislature of Vermont has taken
as to the "personal liberty" law of that State.
The bill for the repeal Of that law was dismissed in
the support of twenty-five Republicans. In the
Senate, however, a resolution was introduced and
passed, requesting the committee appointed to re
wise the statutes Ofthe State, to examine its laws
to determine and report whether any of those laws
are In conflict with the Constitution of the United
States. This resolution passed apparently
without opposition in a Senate composed chiefly,
+ not exclusively, of Republicans. The record of
vestigate the constitutonality of the obnoxious
statutes, and it is fair to presume that if found to
be unconstitutional, they will be repealed.-Boston
