Republication ofVcrmont Reports.
The Senate Judiciary Committee reported
favorably upon very useful bill, this after
noon. 1t provides for the republication of
the early decisions of our Supreme Court,
which have become very scarce and expen-
sive Some of these decisions are land
marks in the history of jurisprudence and
are daily cited in the courts of Justice all
over the world. The bill, as reported by the
committee provides for the reporting of two
volumes ycar--thc two volumes of Aikcns
to be bound in one, and the two volumes of
Daniel Chapman and Brayton to be bound in
one. The State is the right one to under
take this work, for it is Of public necessity.
The bill was ordered to third reading to-
morrow morning.
