The LEGIsLATURE.-Th business com
pleted in the lie .islature this week has not been
of public interest. In the senate the act in
aid of families of volunteers has been up for
amendment and revision, and is still in an i'm
perfect form. The judiciary committee have
reported bill providing that no person shall
be fined or imprisoned for drunkenness, eX-
cept as common Observation-Disclosures being
required to arrest and detain until sober
persons found drunk. Several bills of minor
Importance were passed through the several
stages. In the house the committee on the
agricultural college were authorized to visit
different portions of the state for purposes of
examination. The bills in relation to the
Worcester Southeast Agricultural Society,
and the Worcester Horse Railroad Company
were passed. Resolutions were introduced
and referred instructing our senators and
representatives to use their influence in favor
of the reduction of the price of paper; and re-
monstrances were also put in against the pas
sage of such resolves unless all other kinds of
property were included. Resolves allowing
several county agricultural societies to draw
the bounties due them from the state were
passed. A bill introduced on the petition
of Judge Hoar and others, to incorpor-
ate the Protective War Claim AsSocia-
ton, for the purpose of assisting men
belonging to the army and navy, and
their families, in obtaining the allowance of
claims upon the governments of the United
States, for pensions, pay, or bounties, and
authorizing said association to hold personal
estate not exceeding $4,000 in value, passed
its preliminary stages. Bills and resolves
for furnishing additional rooms in the state
house, in relation to snow and ice on the roofs
of buildings, making appropriations for the
mileage and compensation of the lieutenant
governor and council. and officers and mem
bers of the legislature at the present session
thereof, and for other purposes; in relation to
the Worcester Southeast Agricultural Society;

cester Horse Railroad company-were also

artillery regiment, stationed at Washington,
and Angelina Il. Palmster, at her home in
North Volna, n. Y, were married by tele-
graph on Tuesday last, the officiating clergy
man being the chaplain of the regiment, who
put the customary questions at Washington,
the brides share of which were answered with
a palpitating heart at North Volna, and the
bridegroom's on the spot. The marriage is,
by the laws of New York, as binding as if the
parties had been united i'll church, and given
their consent before the same altar.
There is project on foot to extend tele-
graph line to Jerusalem. The Syrian tele-
graph is already in operation as far as the top

line will run north to Joppa and Jerusalem.

CITY AND COUNTY.
nirth NtntIstics OF Nvorcester.

We are indebted to VIM. A. Brigham, Esq,
in the city of Worcester for the year 1862.
Mr.. Brigham has personally visited nearly
every house in the city to complete the re-
cord, and this is summary of his report to
the city clerk -:
The whole number of births for 1862 was
S62, being only 10 less than the previous year.
Number of males 1923, females 439. January
had 70-males &c. females "a !; February 10
males 50, females 40; March S0-males AZ,
females 3S April Gonzales 81, females %;
May 6l-males 20, females 80; June e.

September 77-males 80, females IS; Octo.
Der 83-males 80, females SO November Il
males SO, females 50; December 70-males
So, females 80. October takes the lead as
the most fruitful month. There were only
3 cases of twins, while in 1861 there
were s. The illegitimate births were 6.
The mixed or mulatto were 4, and l
African; 446 were of Irish parentage; 291
were from New England, II from the state of
New York, IL belonging to New Jersey,

igan, S from Nova Scotia and New Bruins
wick, Canada 80, England %, Scotland 8,
Germany II, France 5, one at sea, one upon
the rock of Gibrater, and four the birth
places unknown. A few of the above were of
mixed parentage of American, English,
Irish, Scotch, French, Prussian, Swiss, and
the colonies. There is one case worthy of
notice. One young Irish MOTHER whose hus-
band is an American, born in Pennsylvania,
and is doing good service for our country in
the navy, had two smart boys born in the year
1S62-one Jan. 18th, the other Dec. 9th, less
than eleven months. Young recruits are null
tiplying.

and Worcester train, Friday noon, was pass
ing between Leominster and Fitchburg, one of

quence, in removing the broken shaft, after
which the the engine, with a single shaft,
proceeded with its load to Fitchburg, and the
return trip with another engine, was made
nearly on time.
