Our Legislature partakes of the economizing
spirit of the times. Your ranting Loco-Foco is a
hrstrate fellow TO promise retrenchmeht and re-
form; but it takes the Wings TO practice what the
others preach. The House has resolved to ad-
iourn on the 18th February-from two to four
weeks earlier than usual-thereby saving, if MIR,
Whitney's estimate made in the House was cor
rect, soma $4,000 or $40 ,000-a very considerable
sum in a State which imposes a State tax Of only
s25, 900 or $30,00o-never more than $4,000,
though in your State you would doubtless consider
such reform too trifling to talk of.


Nothing has been dene yet about The Constitu-
ton, Imprisonment for Debt, the Lunatic Asylum,
or the Phillipsburg Baak-the latter of which
projects by the way, is advocated exclusively, al.
most, by the Democracy of the three backbone
Loco-Foco counties OF Sussex, Warren and Hun
terdon.


The business of Divorcing has stopped short in
Council which body has taken firm stand against
the numerous applications. Your unfortunate
citizens who come hither for release from the sken
bonds of Hatrimony, find no difficulty in getting
their bills through the House, but this determine
,ion of the Council IS sad stumbling block.
The political atmosphere is calm. New-Jersey
is safe for a. least two more years-for the Con-
eressional elections of 1S43 and the Presidential
election of 1874 will bring out her strsDg corps de
reserre, substantial citizens, who never speak
without overwhelming Loco-F ocoism with defeat.


70 BLANCA CArELLo, Lady Lytton Bsiwer's
new Historical Romance, was published yesser-
day by ]. Winchester, 80 Ann-street, for Isl
cents. We did not like this lady's Chsveiey
VET it evinced ralent and tartusss which might give
piquancy to a better work. The story of Blanca
Capello is deeply interesting one, and celcula,-
ed to make salu,ary impression if presented IN
colors no, unlike those of Truth.
