 LITTLE BACK TALK.
 MT. Root of Waterbury-The gentle man from Norwich says that we are hin dering them from doing something. Why they have prevented us from doing any thing, even to adjourning. Business has been thrust on us from both sides of the house, but we should do no other business until we have complied with the constitu- tion, and done our duty as regards the state officers, and this the republicans fail to do, and on their shoulders lies the blame.
