ALMOST A JOKE IN THE SENATE
The practice in this State of going to the
Legislature to get name changed or an
act of incorporation for almost every
kline of private business or organization,
whe,e associate labor or capital is en-
ployd, has SO long been followed that it
is difficult to break it up, although a
general law" makes provision for most
cases An effort was made at the COM
menement of the present session, in the
Senae, to clear the legislative stream of
some of this foodwood, but on it came
thickr and faster than eyer. and the
Hon. senators were again obliged to yield
to its pressure. Among those most op-
posedto this kind Of legislation is Sena-
tor C1amer of Windsor county, one of
the anest lawyers in that body, who hap
pens 10 be chairman of the committee ''on
Fedeal Relations" Among the miscel-
laneols bills introduced last week was
one t. incorporate the Mortified Cornet
Band;which the!presiding officer, with a
view 10 doubt to the more equal distribu-
ton o. committee labor, referred to the
committee on federal relatiena. After due
consideration, it was reported back to the
Senate through Senator Carpenter Of
Washington County, another member of
that Committee, who stated with much
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1870-11-24

assumed gravity that the committee on
Federal Relations had duly consideredlthe
subject matter of this bill, and recognizing
the relation which exists between brass
bands and 'Hail Columbia and "Yankee
Doodle" were of the opinion that proper
reference had been given to the bill and
that it ought to pass. Senator Bailey,
another member of the committee, dis
sented from the report inasmuch as it did
not include "The Girl I LETT behind me"
but would not present minority report.
The Senatorial dignity with which the
matter was passed over cannot appear on
paper, but was the real cream of the joke,
although there was plenty of mirth in
side. And this is the way there came
near being a joke in the Senate.

CHEAPER THAN BEFORE THE WAR = picures,
are You aware that you can enjoy the luxuries of
the dessert at much cheaper rate than ten
years ago? Science has converted wild pro iuct
of the Irish cosst into an element of immeasura-
BILE dainties of the most wholesome, nutritious
and delicious character; and the price of this
new staple is less by one half than that of any
other article of the same class containing like
amount of nutriment. Need we say that the
Sea Moss Farine is the article referred to. The
enterprising and wealthy New York Company en-
gagged in its manufacture are entitled to the
thanks of every philanthropist for introducing
this new source of excellent and agreeable food,
at price which places it within the reach of all.
One experiment will convince the most skeptical
that with Sea Moss Farine they can produce IN
equaled custards, puddings, jellies, Charlottes,
creams sauces, &C., at less cost than before the
war. The depot of the company is at So Park
Place, New York.

FRANKLIN COUNTY BUTTER.-The ST.
Adams Messenger thus notes the sale OF
whit it calls ''gilt edged" butter:
Mr. G. Fl. Dixon, very wealthy gentle
man from st. Louis, and the same who
is building the great Mississippi River
Bridge, spent few weeks at the Weldon
House last summer, and was so much
pleased with the ''gilt edged" butter al
ways found upon the table that since his
return home be has requested Mr. Sublett
TO Bnd him some of the same sort, and in
compliance with the order, several pack
ages of the finest in the market have been
forwarded. This is certainly compliment
tarr to the dairy interests of franklin
County and an equal compliment to tho
table of the Weldon. ApropOs to this,
we may state that Mr.. Goodale, Secretary
of he Maine Board of Agriculture, ex-
presses himself highly pleased with the
butter recently procured for him here by
Mr. o. s. Bliss. AS an instructive fact
forthe farmers it is our duty to state that
thebutter which thus adds glory to our
malket is manufactured by those who en-
plor the most modern and improved pro-
oeses, and who trust less to their ingen-
uitr in selling than to their skill and hon.
esty in making. Such butter always
brings the highest price and finds ready
msket anywhere-even in Cbina-for
moe than once has it been forwarded to
the Celestial Empire.

Adjournment of the Legislature.

The Legislature, after session of fifty
days, adjourned yesterday, Wednesday,
morning, and we give in this mornings
HERALD, the last Of the proceedings. In
speaking of the final adjournment of the
Legislature the Montpelier journal says
that it has been quite clear in the last
week of the Assembly that the business
before it would justify longer session or
an adjournment to some future day. But
both propositions were rejected and the
Legislature finally adjourned without day
and will not come together again except
at the call Of the Governor, for two years.
We have very little doubt that the neces-
city will arise for an extra session. In
the last twelve years there have been
three extra sessions, and it is not likely
that now the biennial system is intro
daced there will be any less need of an

For the HERALD
Ena.smnEfC

Along the ancient, gateless pike,
The stage coach plies no more;
The whir Of wheels and clang of feet,
And drivers days are DER.
No more is heard the drivers horn,
In echoes soft and sweet,
AS crowded coach, at noon of night,
Rolls through the village street.
Beside the Turnpike gray and old
Another pathway lies;
Der which a steed with iron ribs,
In madden'd fury flies!
His heated breath is heard afar,
Along the mountains sides,
Or painting through the valleys deep,
In journeys far and wide
The swvying coach is laid aside,-
The drivers whip and hCrn,-
The steeds from tIampipg Ger the road,
Are plowiDg out the corn.
And yet at midnight's weird hour,
We dream the stage draws nigh,-
Awake-the thunder of the train,
Proclaims il passing by
Rejoice we In the wondrous things
Which through the years are born;
But treasure still, in memory,
The stage coach with its horn.

SATURDAY EVENING SESSION.
The session of the House on Saturday
evening worked up Il large amount OF
business, and the session was decidedly
spicy. While considering a bill to compel
children to attend school, a spirited dis
cussion arose. One member became very
much excited in opposition to the bill, and
denounced the bill as unconstitutional as
any other law" One provision was to
send the inoorrible truant to the Reform
School. In commenting upon this pro-
vision of the bill the same member became
very denunoiatory, and said that one re-
ligion said "Suffer little children to come
unto me-" etc, but the religion of the
House said "Suffer little children to come
unto the Vermont Reform School" I am
opposed to this provision of the bill. Mr..
Speaker, 81 believe 1 am opposed to the
whole id thing :" and sat down amid
the roar of the whole House and the lob
bies. The bill was finally passed with
the provision for sending to Reform
Scnool stricken out.
MONDAY EVENING SESSION.
The session of Monday evening was pro.
longed until 10 o'clock. During the even
ing the bill for the equalization of salaries
came up in tho order of business, upon
which ensued an exciting debate, especial
ly upon the salaries of Auditor of Ac-
counts, and Secretary of State, which
finally resulted in the increase of the sal
airy of the latter TO fifteen hundred dollars,
and the decrease of the clerk hire of the
Auditor, from eight to five hundred dol
lars. The salary of the Adjutant General
was reduced from $500 to 5000, with an
allowance of $500 to the Assistant Adju-
tant General. These salaries always cause
great amount of debate, and more time
is spent in their discussion than it would
cost to pay the extra amount, and when
they get through the salaries are more
unequal than when they commenced, and
the hardest working men are left with
lowest salaries, and least pay. The man
gets the most pay who does the most log
rolling, and has the time to set around
and look after individual members.
MISCELLANEOUS.
The name of Cora M. Soper of Brandon
has been changed 20 Cora III. Cook.
An appropriation of twenty-five thou
sand dollars has been made for a new
building for the Vermont Reform School
The new divorce bill transfering~the
trial from the Supreme to the County
Courts, has passed both Houses.
The House have refused to increase the
salaries of the judges of the Supreme
Cours.

AN OLD FRIEND.

For many years the Press Of the country has
chronicIed the beneficial effects of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Editors, authors, physicians
merchants, officers of the army and navy, chem.
lists, counseors ministers of the gospel, in short
great cloud of witnesses of every profession
trade and calling, have testified to its efficacy ai
a tonic and regulating medicine. The names and
statements of these witnesses have bsen publish.
ed in the public prints. Many of them are well
known to the whole public. Their testimony has
never been challenged or impugned. This
OLD Friend
has been tried aud pronounced, on the authority
of those whose lives of those whose lives and
health it has preserved, pure, harmless and en-
inently salutary preparation. Attempts have
been made to rival it. They have failed. There
is nothing equal TO the enjoyment experienced
by the afflicted when using this valuable specific.
Its mild tone, its sure and vigorous action upon
a disordered stomach and the cleansing OF the en-
tire human body, recommend it TO the whole
community as reliable friend.
