Col 0rmsby, Of :VeVay, Ind, hands :us -the.
following extract from letter received from:
q friend In Pittsburg:
An ongireercama up here from New Orleans
and relates the following: Agood many South
coming up the Mississippi they boasted loudly
!that the Southern man could easily whip sig
Northernere. When the boat reached Cairo,
they came to the conclusion that three ofthose
herce:looking Illinois chaps would be enough!
at one time. Finally, while coming by rail
through Indiana, the cars passed an encamp-
..ment, where the Hoosiers, about six feet three
in height, Were building common board tente.
These men would reach down and with ease
shoulder bundle Of boards, (about as much
as q jackass could ea1Ty,) and then trot of
with them. The engineer quietly touched one
Of the Southerners On the shoulder and asked,
would hate to be the fellow to attack one q

for, the committee having reported the bill
without any expression of opinion wheth-
er the same ought, or ought not to pass.
Thus Bank has been chartered in
Rutland, by the Legislature, precipitately,
sgmorantly by the House especially.
We have believed such a movement
would result adversely to the business OF
Rutland and Rutland County.
The present Bank was shown to have
been conducted for the good of the whole
community, and to have done what no
other Bank in the State has been able to
do; to wit it hiss discounted all the good
paper offered since the present financial
revulsion We do not believe two rsUGl
Banks could serve the business of Rutland
and vicinity 80 soesI. But since the new
Bank is incorporated, we are not disposed
to continue any unayaihng opposition. II
the stock shall be taken, We wish the new
Bank prosperity, and sincerely hope oul
worst fears will not be realized.

THE LAWS.

We shall soon publish the laws enacted
by the Legislature Our readers will then
see what has been done by the men most
noted for wisdom and virtue " as we'll as what
they have failed to do, Until we receive the
laws it will be difficult to make ieteligept
comment. We may, however, express our
disappointment that the militia system OF The
State was not revived and placed upon a
permanent footing. The measure was one
OF the most important-if not the most impor-
tanttof the session and it is to be regretted
that the two houses got at loggerheads in rela
ton to it. We hardly think, however, that
an Extra Session will be thought advisable at
present. Itmay become necessary to call one
in the Spring or early Sumner, but it will
depend very much, perhaps, upon the aspect
which the war will assume in the future

THAT SPEECH.

The Speech of John Cain on the Bank
Question which we published on Saturday
Last, is generally admitted to be fully equal,
If not superior to the previous performances
Of its distinguished author, and gives immense
satisfaction to both sides of the controversy,
and particularly to his Irish constituents
1t is, moreover, thought to be quite imam
ssserGbtc We have neither the space nor
fxae, in the hurried hours Of preparing mat
ter for daily paper, to attempt an analysis
Of this production and indeed in any at
tempted comparison of it with the renowned
productions of the great masters of oratory,
we find ourselves bafled by its uniqueness
and originality. 1t may be said to differ from
Denosthenes7 Grafton for the Crown in the
respect that the latter was an GRAFTON for q
Croson, while the former was an Grafton for
Bank. But they ar alike in this, that
beth are Greek to the general reader. And
Il Demosthenes immortalized some of his Co
temporaries by casual ILLUSIONS to them in
his Grafton, so Cain has probably immortal
ned Richardson and his " squash pie in the
same way. If the Grafton contains passages
of terrific denunciation, as, for instance 40
ys Gods, if they are indeed incurable, de-
stroy them; exterminate them on land and
sea p the Speech is equally terrific in the
exclamation tear the Editors of the Her.
aid from their beds and ride them on a rail p
The latter language, it is true, is more be-
corning to the modern stump than to the an
ssent forrm, but it is none the less torcible.
There are many other points of contrast and
comparison which we might notice, but this
vail suffice 1t is safe TO assume that John
Cams Oratory and Craftsmanship will never
be- called in question by those who have read
Ais remarkable speech on the Bank Question.

RAILROAD SPEED.

The bill for g new Bank at Rutland has
been put through at railroad speed. 1t
passed the Senate this afternoon-yeas 20,
nays g. was taken up in the House the
first thing this evening, and under sus-
pension OF rules, read the Sd time and
passed Immediately, without even the
yeas and nays being called, and, ] think,
within about half an hour, was reported
as having been signed BY the Governor
Those opposed to the measure seem to
have been taken somewhat by surprise
Correspondence Of Burlington Free Press.
And who would not be surprised at
such speed, and ignorant speed TOO. The
bill passed Mtn House, the principal
opponents not having taken their seats :;
it was hurried TO the Senate by the
Clerk, and in.such haste that when he was
called upon few minutes after its pas
sage. to retain it until 8 reconsideration
could bekmoved. he saidft was too late, as
he had already sent it to the Senate; 1t
was hurried by the Senate to the Cover
nor, having been signed ~ haste by
the presiding officers of the two Houses ;
the Governor signed it an haste, and an
haste his secretary announced to the Sen
ate that His Exceuency had approved and
signed the bill Such haae 10 special and
local Legislation was never before witness
ed, and we hope for the credit OF the Yer
mont Legislature, and the Executive, it
never will be witnessed again. We say
nothing as to the merits Of the bill, but
the haste with which all this was done,
in the teeth of q triumphant showing that
a new bank is not needed in Rutland,
ought to be standing admonition against
hasty Legislation.
But the deed is done, When the new
Bank shall commence business We will
welcome it into the field, and hope it will
be not only prosperous itself but that it
will contribute also to the prosperity OF
the village and county. But as yet our
fears predominant over our wishes and
desires.
