patton. The Sd district is composed Of the

General Statutes of Vermont. 1858.


The General Statutes OF this State being
ust published, the following communica-
ton which we take from the Burlington
Free Press, noticing some Of the more re-
markable alterations from previous Stat
utes, will be of interest to our readers
The communication is prefaced by some
remarks from which we copy as follows
By the act providing for the publication,
the Reporter of the decisions of the Su-
preme Court was appointed Commission
er to edit and superlntend the publication
of the volume, to prepare suitable head
noes to the chapters, marginal references
to previous legislation, &C., and also an
exact and copious index to the whole. The
execution of the volume bears ample tes-
timony to the labor and good judgment of
the Commissioner, VIM. &. Shaw, ESQ,
of this town. We notice some partIcu-
lars:
The marginal notes give, in brief, OPP
posite each section the subject Of the
same, and also the chapter and section of
the Complied Statutes, or Of subsequent
session laws, from which the present sec
ton is taken. fthe law has been amend
ed or several different sections have been
combined in one, the marginal note also
indicates that fact.
Bv this means the history of the legis-
lation of the State on any subject can be
easily traced and studied. Besides this
whenever the subject involved in sec
ton has received a judicial construction,
there are marginal references given to the
decisions of the Supreme Court thereon.
To make these references must have cost
the Commissioner great deal of labor,
as the whole body of Supreme Court de-
clsions had to be scrutinlzed for that end
The value of this to the legal profession
must be very great.
The Index, which is the key of the
public to the laws, is printed in very clear
type, and IS, III this respect as well as in
its copiousness, decided improvement
upon that Of the Complied Statutes. The
index of the Complied Statutes, contains
only lob pages, while that of the General
Statutes comprises 258 pages. The refer
ence, in the index, to the Section, as well
as to the page is an Improvement upon
the Massachusetts General Statutes which
the Legislature seems to have had in view
IN some measure, as model for this
work, and in which the index references
are only 10 the page. The additions. ia
cihtv OF consultation from this improve
ment every one viii appreciate.
When it IS remembered that the prepa-
ration of the work as above indicated.
and its actual publication, were to be
completed before the lst of August, 1868
tile day when the General Statutes take
efect--it will lie readily seen that the
Commissioner must nave been very indus
trousy employed since the close of the
Session to accomplish so satisfactorily the
work assigned to him.

dent of the United States and the
amount of the surplus thus furnished by
each town, and for which such town
is now entitled to credit, according to the
terms of the communication from the Pro-
vost Marshal General, is stated against
the name of such town. In computing
the surplus, for which the several towns
are entitled to credit, the number of men
furnished for three years. service, and also
the number of men furnished for nine
months service, have been considered, and
the whole reduced 10 three years men,
according TO the rule prescribed by the
War Department-regardlhg four men
for nine months service equal to one man
for three years service.

JOHN BULL ON AMERICA.-John Bull,
as represented by the London Times, in
all his summersanlts, manages, felinely, to
come down feet first. The Thunderer
knew short time ago that Lees northern
invasion was about to result in the cap
ture of Washington; it expected to hear
bv tie next steamer that DAVIS was in
possession of the White House and was
preparing itself to favor the anticipated de
mand of the Confederate Government,
proceeding from the Federal Capital, for
recognition it knew also that Vicksburg
could never be taken by all the armies In
America; that Banks would be annihila-
ted al Port Hudson, and the last hope OF
the North was about to go out in utter
darkness. 1t has since received the news.
1t, of course, depreeiates as mach as pos
sible, the Union success over Lee the
capture of Vicksburg is an aoccsrrence"
which it passes lightly over; but the con-
cluson is that the tremendous wisdom and
foresight of John Bull ia his non-lnter-
vention policy has been triumphantly
proven.
We recommend to those who desire some
nieasant reading to give their attention to
the searifcatlon of the London Times,
syhich we copy in another place, from the
london Star of July 2lst.

The following We find in the Des
Moines specials Of the Chicago 7;mes
Judge Miller, Of the q. S. Circuit
Court, made . very important decision
to day in regard to tho validity Of county
and city railroad bonds, deciding that
their issue was unauthorized BY the con.
stitution, and they could derive no valid.
ity from any existing law. Tho opinion
was . very able one, and disposes OF
many most important civil causes now
pending in this court. The opinion will
DOUBTLESS be published, as it covers the
whole question Of corporal on indebted
cess incurred by subscription for the pur-
pose OF internal improvement. 1t is. in
other words, judicial snnnnciation that
the doctrine Of city and county repudis-
ton of their bonds will receive judicia!
sanction under the constitution and laws
q they now are.
