 ING CARD.
 This would have been a dreary day in the legislature but for the caucus of the republican members from New Haven county.

Repre- sentative Cowell of Waterbury said that he. as we'll as Representative Gum of Milford. would have to plant their own corn next spring and he did not wish to place any bar in the way of farmers. if would be better to hurry up now than to have his brethren from the country late in the session absenting themselves because the session was pro- +racted, There were many busy men in the house and they wished to remain and hurry up business so as to adjourn early.
