| What is the sound Which
makes the mechanic pause ?
It isn't the rumbling of far.of'
thunder, nor the beating of the
waves against the massive
docks, nor the rush of feet
hurrying by. There is some
thing in the air-a brighten

which makes poor men gather
closer together, shake hands,
and predict better times. There
is a trembling Of things polite.

wary about investing largely

TIE .iEW STATE CAPITOL.

Referring to the laying OF the corner stone Of the
new Capitol at Albany on tine oath inst. the Syra-
cuse JO,ltdi sayS:-The whole state has an inter-
est in this event. The foundation tor one OF the
most magnificent structures III this country has been
laid. The work seems 10 have progressed slowly
thus far because the site was such to require
good deal or excavatlng In order 10 secure firm
substructure. IL required hundreds OF thousands Of
dollars to carry the walls up to the Level OF the
ground in the and the sides or the site; but
the work has been well done-the foundation
been laid for lnterminaoe ages, and the place
wherein the grand structure OF the Capitol Will
rest Is as unyleding as the "eerna hills " The new
Capitol Will have commanding view. On the
north, six miles up the valley OF the Hudson,
Is the enterprising city OF 1roT. with its
abundance OF shade, Its smoking furnaces aud It's
line buildings; on the east are the Greenbush
hills, the noted mansion of the Van Rensselaers,
now in other hands and the lively villages OF East
ALBANY and Greenbcsh; on the south. for several
miles down the Hudson are lne farms, handsome
imaginable, Ranked in the perspective by the blue
Caiskts, ana on the west a fne stretch Of
country, or meadows, OF pastures and woodlands
extending to the base OF the rocky Heiderbergs.
When the great tower OF the Capitol shall nave
completed, It's top VIII be visible for many miles
around The old Capitol ought to have been super.
seeded By another building years ago. II has long
been disgrace TO the State, as well as to the city OF
Albany. Visitors from other States have repeatedly
expressed Their wonder That the state or New
YORK should compel It's legislators and Chief Execu-
tive TO occupy such an III error, dingy unhealthful
building Hasten the day for the laying OF the
corner stone and then hasten the DAY for the COM
pleton OF the new capitol.

vIded. How 40 the members leel now, since they
have read JED Davs's speeches ut Augusta and AT.

pose OF getting up another rebellion Horace Gree
