So Hon. WILLIAM UrHAM of Montpelier il
chosen Senator for six years from the 4th OF
March next. 1t is understood that Hon. Horace
Everett. NJ c. from the Windsor District and Hon
Jacob Collaner, also of Windsor County, were
competitors for the Wing nomination.


The election of Justices Of the State Supreme
Court takes annually. Hon. Charles K. Williams
se Rutland has been Chief Justice for several years
wthca. opposition, but, having stood as the Abo-
iition candidate for Governor at the late Election
an attempt was made to drop him this time and
elect Judge Royce in his place, but it failed by
votes. All the old Justices were reelected excep,
Jacob Collamer, who declined and William Hib.
bard was elected in his stead


The Legislature has unanimously passed resolu
,ions in favor of Repeal of the Bankrupt Law.
We presume there is more good sense in Vernon,
than really to desire the repeal of this law; but
Loce.Foco having introduced the resolution the
Wings did not see fit to breast the camor which
would be raised on its rejection, and let it pass
without opposition.


The annual Message Of Governor Paine, which
was sent to the Legislature at the opening OF
the Session, alludes at its commencement to the
successful negotiation Of the Ashburton treaty and
to the beneficial operation of the Tariff passed
just before the adjournment of Congress. The
dreful experience of the past is alluded to as fur
nshing valuable instruction for the future not onl,
with respect to specific measures of legislation
but as enforcing the necessity of properly apprec
ating the responsibilities and tho duties of self
government. The Rhode Island question is
briefly reviewed and the iniquitous schemes OF
Dorr ADD his confederates are clearly exposed and
forcibiy condemned.


Two points in the Message are of especial in
terest and value. The fret relates to State Educa
tional Establishments and the other to Geological
Survey, which has been subject of discussion fol
some years, and which, at the last session, faiied
by rather discreditabie attempt to connect il
with party questions. The Message refers to the
relation of the Colleges to the Seninaries, and
ofthese to tho Commoa Schools, of the State, and
recommends that they all be placed under the su'
pervision of competent and faithful snperintend
ent. If some judicious plan for their organization
into System could be adopted and carried into
vigorous effect, Vermont, after the lapse of no,
many years, might rank FRS, among the States of
che Union In the excellence and ennoblipe ina,,-
ence OF her highest schools and in the general in
'eligence and worth of her people. The subect
has been ably discussed in some Of her best ;opr.
nails aud we hope to see the rscommenda,ions of
her soandest men received with confidence and
carried into practical effect. The Governor right.
ly says that Education, in such community, in
any of its branches ought not to be suffered to Ian.
guish from sny motives of economy


The Geographical Survey of the State is urged
upon the attention of the Legislature, as mportan,
net only to the developemens of her mineral wealth
but to her agricultural and general interests. A
sum more than sufficient to meet the expense OF
such survey is due to the State from che sale OF
the Public Lands. Internal Improvements, espe-
cially The construction of railroads, IS alto COM
naended to legislative consideration. The Mes
sage proves the Governor to be man of enlarged
aud liberal views, disposed seriously toresard
and eectually Is protect all the best interests of
the State.
