Especial Despatch to the Press.l

ISPSSAai beopntSu W Iuc IItss.l
AUGUSTA, Jan. 81, 1877.
The full Committee on Agriculture returned
to-day from their visit to the State College at
Orono, where they have made a thorough and
highly satisfactory inspection of this institu-
ton. The buildings are all in excellent condi-
ton. and those recently built are found to be
ample in size, and generally well adapted to
their purposes. Those objects for which appro-
priations have been asked were we'll looked into,
and the committee will be unanimous in recon-
rnending the appropriations, except those that
relate to building and apparatus for the School
of Technology. The hitch arises from feeling
that the time has not arrived to spend in this
direction, as,the method of instruction proposed
is too new feature in this country to justify
the expenditure of any considerable amount
until further experiments demonstrate the util-
ity and best methods of instructing after this
panner. There is want of new farm build
ings, as the present ones are too small and are
located at an inconvenieLt distance from the
college buildings.
The trustees are hopeful of the success of the
college, and things appear to be generally -four
ishing.

Many of the legislators have gone home TO-

town, about fifty went down to Togus this
afternoon, to visit the Soldiers Home. They
remained there two hours, and were highly
pleased with the state of things they found
there. There are 740 inmates of the asylum
now, of which sc are in hospitals.
Another party improved the time by paying
the Insane Asylum visit.
Two distinguished Legislators, of opposite
politics, wound mp lively argument by betting
hat on the issue of the presidential election,
and having shaken hands in token of amity,
started off to inspect the Hallowell granite
quarries.
1t is the opinion of those best qualified to
know, that the Legislature will adjourn week
from next Wednesday. Less sanguine persons
set the time fortnight from to-day. P.
