The Session.

The Legislative session that is now
ended has been characterized by re-
markable dispatch Of business. Orli-
narily the accumulation of work is
greater in the house than in the senate,
and the latter body has usually awaited
the action of the former. An extraor-
binary amount of business has come
into the house, but it has been handled
with such dispatch that the usual rush
has been avoided. The closing hours
of the session found the speakers desk
cleared and the reports of the COM
mittees all in. This is an unusual
state of affairs, and it has been brought
about by steady, harmonious work.
Evening sessions have not been re-
quired. If the quality of its work shall
stand the test of experience, the house
of representatives for 1894 will have
made a record that should be sign
board to its successors. In addition to
the customary business of a session,
there has been the work of revising
the statutes, itself task of no small
magnitude.
The senate had kept pace with its
yokefellow in lawmaking up to the
time of the opening of the Rutland war
in that body. The 6llibustering by the
opponents of the measure for setting
off from the city to the town of Rutland
certain territory blocked the senate
wheels.
AS to the character of the legislation,
it is impossible to judge in the confu.
sion incident to the close of the session.
The leading measure, the revision of the
laws, has been in competent hands. The
work of the revision committee was ac-
cepted on trust by senate and house,
and its report was adopted without dis
cussion. The measure for the compile
ton Of the state insane asylum at
Waterbury, approprialing $780, 900 Tor
that purpose, has become a law. Pre-
cisely what the legislature has done for
the suppression of tuberculosis ,ud the
protection of the public heal,h from
that scourge will not fully appear til
the laws are printed. The impression
is current thai the measure provides for
handling the disease With gloyed hands.
The cry was raised ia inc house, by one

have been acIuated more by d,mAgog.

Echo Of an Echo,

personal item reads AS follows: "a ban
quet was given Lafayette at the Pavilion
tickets to which were sold at two dollars
or two and "A half. | gave mine to old Judge
Ware, who was too poor to buy one" 1t
was quite natural that Colonel Jewett
should slate the incident, in familiar con-
versa'ion, such items enhance the interest
OF story. He wa, then young man, and
the act was generous and graceful, and

not to be questioned-no statements OF
Colonel Jewett's were and certainly can
not doubt this one, knowing but too well
ia It my father had no gift for keep ng
money, and therefore none to invest in
stocks bonds, real estate, or "tckets."
Neither do | write to apologize for his pow

many of Colonel Jewett's friends will share
with me, that he-Colonel Jewett-is now

fine quality of character which was in him

Thanksgiving Day.

The annual Thanksgiving Day,
for nerly New Engl and festival, but
now national holiday, is commended
to our observance anew by both ma
tional and state proclamations. 1t is a
day probably more heartily welcomed,
by all classes, than any other festival or
holiday of the year. i is devoted espe-
cialy TO the remembrance and cultiva-
ton of the sweet, ST and end rest of
all earthly ties-lhose of family and
kindred. 1t brings to the thoughts of
the aged childho DDS home and COM
pani0ns, father and mother who are
now inmates of the heavenly home, of
brothers aud sisters, Of husband and
wife and children, some of whom have
entered into rest, while Others are still =,
like them, pursuing llfe's pilgrim age.
Some facts in lhs history and expert
ence of all these come fl )oding the
memory of the aged on this annual
home festival as they do on no other day
in the year. Life is lived over again.
