After having been submitted for the appreciation of the people, they will, if ratified, become part of the fundamental laws of Connecticut There other subjects of great ment which we now believe will be agtated dur ing the session and which trust will be disposed of in a manner to promote the common good.

 To our {" cousin ofthe' N.E F. w. Review we will simply say-when you shall again appear with big "I," publishing sentiments like those we noticed in your first paper, then you shall hear from us again but as you have adopted the modest, common, yet really inconsistent pronoun |" we, and you ap pear perfectly satisfied with the result ofthe late cleo tion, which you aware was not decided upon old "party grounds, we have not the least occasion to "spar'' with you ; and indeed we like the character ofyour paper we'll to condemn that and as to att tackng your editorial style, are so modest that we had rather be excused from that business. But weak are, shall the lists with you, whenever you may lay yourself open to the attacks of conss- tent republicans, winch from general appearances,we should suppose will not soon be the case. We in- deed wish you much success in your business and are free to acknowledge, that in humble opinion, yours is the best paper in the state. Will this an- swer!

 Lectures to Young Men.-An interesting little work under the above title, by Rev. Joel Hawes, Pastor of the First Church in Hartford, has lately been publish ed. These Lectures originally delivered in Hartford, and subsequently preached in NewHaven, by special desire of the clergymen of the latter place and published the united request ofthe young gentlemen of both places. They are five in number, viz: l. Claims of Society on Young Nen 9. DGps gers of Young Men. 3. Importance of Esta6lished Principles. 4. Formation and Importance of fCharac- ter. B. Religion the Chief fConcern.-The sentiments plain, judicious and practical; and the style neat and perspicuous. Every young who peruses these Lectures will find something for his considera ton and practice. They peculiarly fitted for young men in the circumstances by which multi,udes find themselves. surrounded; and we cheerfuIly rec ommend them to the patronage of the public.

 The Tariff Bil!has been reported in the Senate with amendments, which give it more acceptable form than it hal when it came from the House. It is supposed that these amendments will be adopted by the Senate, and pass that body. Among the amend ments proposed, is to reduce the duty nmoasses from 10 cts. to l-2 cts. per gallon. What success these amendments will meet wth n the House, should hey pass the Senate, is question which cannot at tresert be determined. It is conjectured, however, that the New England representatives will be in favor ofthe Bill in its present amended form, and tiat they " and Pennsylvania members to ensure its passage.

 The Committee appointed in the House of Repre- sentatves, the Jarvis outrage have obtained leave te sit every day. They have yet made no repor,& it is probable they will under some time, it is said they have sent to Boston take the dispositions of the ladies who accompanied Mir. Jarvis to the Presidents house when the remarks were made which caused the afray. It is doubtless the intention of the committee, majority of whom staunch sup porters of the Hero," to give the matter thorough '" whitewashing.''

 Niagara Bank.-The bills of this Bank, which has for some time rast been in had repute, are now en- tirely refused. Bills to the amount of $5,000 were sent from Albany to Buffalo few days snce of which the Bank refused tn redeem single dollar This the third time this Bank has failed since it's stitution and is be hoped that it is to all n- tents and purposes defunct.

 Cheap trarehing.-It is reported that the orposi- ton lines of steamboats from New-York to Nor walk and Bridgeport, carry passe ngers free. This we presume is the result of competition; which, however advantageous it may be to the public al large, must prove runous the proprietors of the steamboats It were much better for them to follow the example of the lines running between New-York and Providence--establish a reasonable price, and suspend competition.
