MONTPELIER, Nov. 1.-The Vermont
Legislature of iS9! is making a record for
itself. Both branches clear the presiding
officers desks twice day and even then
succeed in ad journing before dsrk. To
days business included another report on
the Danvilie election case. This time
the committee find that MIR. Davis
is not entitled TO his seat and as the
report is unanimous the seat will probably
be declared vacant. The report was made
n special order for next week and if one or
two postponements can be arranged, the
Legislature may adjourn sine dte without
action in the matter. AT any rate, the
customary resolution to pay Mr.. Davis his
mileage and per d}ehl,up to the day lis seat
is declared vacant will, of course, be passed
so that it will really make but few days
and a few dollars difference to MIN whether
he was elected or whether he was not. In
view of the success which has of late
crowned the political aspirations Of all other
democratic candidates for office il seems I'M
kind 10 make an exception in the case of
Mr. Davis.
The Senate passed the worlds fair bill
and the school bill, the latter under sus
pension of the rules, aud they now only
need Governor Fuller's signature to become
laws. Tle standard fire Insurance policy

less Vermont agents are allowed IN their
territory, A large number Of bills OF more
or less general interest were passed or con-
signed to oblivion, aud Governor Fuller 5
