Montpelier, Nov. 0.
The Senate is still coopcd up in committee
of the whole on Mr.. Harris militia bill. hey
have finished up about half Of the bill and
are mas ng clean work of it. The first sec
ton which provided that all d" white male
persons with certain exceptions, should be
enrolled among the militia, was amended in
the most democratic manner, and ! should
suppose so as TO please the morbid taste of
! Mr.. Powers even. The word " whit " was

The Morristown and EImo~e hill was mur-
dercsl aud solemn buried rh@ forenoon in
the very mouse whrr,, 't.ga- born. A strong

the State House aaaiu are to have two dol

been intro duccd. and doubt not It will. i
, was last YEAR hat their paw was changed
! from two dollars 70 enp dollar and hal. 1t
only costs seven dollars and A half dav TO
sweep the House now. Mr.. Willard 'o-,lay
offered a resolution OF inqniry into the pro-
priety OF having a " financial agent" and in
to the riLht Of the governor 10 appoint one.
! The resolution Of MIR Bahrh giving The chap
, lainS the agency Of trausmi'tjng funds to the
famlh"s Of soldiers, and taking the place Of
I this agent was well received and indicate
that the Legi~lature disannrove Of the Gov
ernol's course. The Freeman thinks the
course ofthp House in dismssug the resolu-
tion of Mr. Dyer is Gift is anvthinc) a move
to keep on the fence and dPnrpca'eS this
course. A hill aDpronriatina $500 for the
education OF the blind IN addition TO that al
ready appropriated. was to-day sent in from
the conmi tee. This makes in all S3500 that
the State paws to the Perkins Institute sit
uafod in Boston little OUT IF the city.
The House refused third reading 70 the
State House appropriation bill, ard the
Senate committee on claims have reported
against the claim of the hrirs Of Charles G
El~rman Of similar intent. ! his must be
cooling to the enthusiasm Of Montpelier sub
sclibers. A bill to raise an artillery comra
ny was to-day referred to committee on mill
tary affairs We need bill of this kind Sc
az to allow Vermont chance TO shcot hel
share Of 'hr rebels. 1t is said il will pass
and he made active rse of immediately.
