MONTPELIER, Oct. 10.
The legislature assemblies this week with
The purpose Of earnest work, so far at least
as to block ont aud get before the appro-
pirate committees the more important leg
islation OF the session, that due delbera-
ton may characterize their actions. This
is at least an evidence that the members
feel The responsibility imposed upon them
by the people. The house is composed of
earnest, active men in middle life, who are
accustomed 10 vigorous labor, and we PIE
dict that the legislature Of 1874 will be
emincnty a body of working men. The
indications thus far show that there is a
sprinkling Of men Of more than ordinary
ability. Perhaps there are not as many
with n legislative experience as in some
former legislatures, yet many of the new
members have more than an ordinary adapt
edness to the position they now find them
selves occupying. for they are men vino are
natural legislators. Vermont has had two
notable instances of this class-Thomas E.
Powers and Charles X. Feld-whose supe-
rior qualifications were apparent, from the
ease with which they fell into the accus-
toned channels Of parliamentary action.
THE COMMITTEES.
In no previous year has the speaker been
more pcrplexed in the appointment of
committees This arose partly from the
House being composed of so many new
and unknown men, and in part from the
personal solicitation of members for places
on certain committees. Applications have
not only been made by the individual him
SELF but all his friends have supplemented
the petition, by appeals to the speaker in
their behalf The great pressure was for
place on the railroad committee 1t is re-
ported, with how much of truth cannot
say, that at least one-third OF the men have
made application to he placed on the com
mittee on railroads
The Vermont Reform School will be
well cared for, with Henry Boynton of
Woodstock as its chairman, who is not
only one of the most intelligent, but among
the ablest of the members. 1t is hoped his
health may be sufficient to the labors i'm
posed upon him, and that he may take
part in several of the important discus
sions. He has few equals in debate. lie
will be well supplemented in his committee
by Mcssrs. Pettigrew of Ludlow and Car
dell of Warren.
The speaker made most excellent |
choice of committee on the library, in |
selecting Gen. Grout, Park Davis and G. |
Horace Hubbard OCCASIONAL.

Miracles, says the London Daily Ne,cs,
are being reported at Lourdes, which con-
tinues to be throngcd with pilgrims, The
gazette du Midi states that last week girl
named Cayrignac was carried to the shrine
in dying state, but had no sooner touch
ed the holy water than she rose up per-
fectly well. Another girl, who had been
dumb for seven years, commenced singing
as soon as she reached the grotto. At
Marseilles, moreover, the nuns have
marched in procession to an altar in one of
the churches which is dedicated to our
Lady of LOurdes TO express their gratitude
for the miraculous cure of one of their
number, who had suffered for twenty
months from an apparently incurable
malady.
