No wonder Mr. B bad to enlarge his store room, for his former space would not have held one-half his slock.

THE 111 E LEGISLATORS. Were it not for the fact that Gov. Pollock is a Know-Nothing, wo would suggest to him the propriety of appointing .a day of thanks giving, that the people might express their gratitude at the Qnal adjournment of the State Legislature. Wo should all feel rejoiced that the corrupt body of men composing the major ity of that oath-bound lazar-housc have .at. length left the seat of Government, to return to their betrayed and disgraced constituents. To enumerate the outrages and villainies perpetra ted by this corrupt and loathsome body of freeholders, would require more space and- time than wo con spare at present. As occasion may offer, however, We shall point out some of the corruptions of that miserable corrupt body. Fortunately for the people of the State the Sen ate contained a sufficient number of honest men to thwart and defeat many of the robber schemes concocted by the reckless gamblers and knaves of the House of Reprcsntatives.— As an indication of public sentiment in regard to the baseness of the late Legislature, we se lect the following extracts from our exchange papers: This State Legislature. —This body has i actually after a session of four months, and the people seem to exclaim os with one voice, “Jl lay we never look upon ils like again ! n Elected upon the >i ew platform ofKnow-Notbingism, under the most solemn professions and pledges to put down, the cor ruptions of old parties, it proved itself tho most corrupt , infamous and ignorartt Legisla tive body that ever assembled in this or any other State in the Union, a declaration almost universally admitted. We ask, what bus it done? In tho first place it has filled the State with Shinplarters Rag Mills, by nearly doubl ing tho Ranking Capital of the State—it has le galized the Acta of all manner of irresponsible corporations-- it has nearly doubled Ibe pay of its own members—it tried’ to remove the scat of government to Philadelphia, by which an additional debt of two or three millions would have been added to the tax-payers’ account— it tried to confer upon colored persons all the rights of citizenship now enjoyed by the while freemen of this Commonwealth—and it passed an i4nti-Liccnsc hutv which stands upon re i cord as a burlesque upon all the laws ever cn f acted in this or any other country upon the face of the Globe. These, however, arc only a small portion of the iniquities of the Legislature which has just adjourned. In due time all t/icfr acts will be laidLefore the lax-payers of Pensylvania, by which they will fully discover the pernicious effects of Legislation brought about through the instrumentality of Midnight Lodge*, held together by the moat startling oaths! —BeJfoid Gazette. The Legislature has closed its session of over four months. Wc arc thankful to it for leaving undone some things that were attempted. It did not abolif-h the Canal Board, and substi tute a more expensive management of I lie pub he works, lt-4'd not veto the Governor’s veto and pa*s a local TltmUrupt law. It did not re move the scat of government to Now Jersey, or even to Philadelphia without the consent of another legislature. It did not give away the public works, though it offers the main line quilt* cheap enough. It did not pass the guano inspection bill, giving a dollar a ton for inspec tion. Sncli a lax on agriculture is unnecessa ry. It did not repeal that portion of the school law providing for the diction of county super intendents of public schools. These tilings were attempted, and failed ns it was proper they they should.— Pittsburg Post. A happy day has downed nt last—a day long to be remembered in the chequered annals of the old Keystone State.—a that may even eclipse our fourth of July’s, our twenty second of February’s, oulr Christman dinners and New Year’s johtlcntions—-a day big with case and pence to oyr trembling lax-payers—l mean the day when the present legislature will enjoy its lust riot and break for its constitu ents. and, in most instances, for the lonely shades of perpetual retirement. Like ihc young cub, their troubles are principally ahead! and oh! what a jubilant reception awaits them.— They have done nearly everything they should not have done, and left undone neatly every thing that was demanded and expected by the people. In short this legislature went up like a brilliant rocket in the resplendent reform principle and came down like a very common slick—no, that ain’t it either; it went up like a —a —no use in talking—can’t do the subject justice. But thanks to every tiling terrestrial d celestial, it’s near its last kick, and on Tuesday the Bth inst., it will wing its way to its constituents. and just help me. Mr- Editor, in the great goodness of your heart, to roll the great wave of oblivion over it—do it for the sake of the State—for tho sake of nil parries— for the sake of our common humanity.— Cor respondent of Chambersburg Whg. Tho Legislature has adjourned. Upward* of six hundred nets have been passed, very few of which aro of a public character. ■ More in jury to the interests and prosperity of the peo ple of this Stnto has been done during the past winter than can be repaired in the next half century. Banks. Saving Institutions. &c., have boon scattered broadcast over the Com- momvcnlih. and all devices by winch the labor nmi toil of the masses can be obtained, have been highly favored by the members of the present Legislature. One universal shout of joy will go up from all quarters of the Stale, on the announcement of its adjournment.— Lan* casterian. The session is over. and “what is writ is writ. Would it were worthier.” Wo regret that there is so much in tho labors of the last winter that needs repealing, so much'that i« useless and unmeaning, and so much that is adsolutely prejudicial to tho welfare of tho commodity, But we arc sa tailed that it Is no more. Wo had thought at the outset, on see ing tho programme of the winter's iniquity, and after a few test votes had been given on sundry absurd and luiqflitous bills, that noth ing could restrain tho reckless spirit o/ tho dom inant party, ‘They seemed to bo unwilling to slop at anything save tho subversion of all set tled institutions. But a sprinkling of moder ation lias been since manifested; and having made up our minds ton worse fate, we shall bid adieu to tho Legislature of 1855 with na UUlc malico na regret. Wo owe them the same thanks that tho stork in the fublo owed tho wolf. They had our heads in their mouths, and allowed us to take them out.—Pittsburg Cnton. Tho greater number of these were lop the in corporation of various kinds of Companies, in , eluding a long array of Banka and Insurance Companies. The principal acts of general im portance are tho Liquor Law and tho act for the sale of the Main Lino of public improvements. . The papers generally express joy at tho ter mination of a session that has been productive of ilttlo good and much evil; and Ino Ledger adds, with quiet sarcasm : “Tho members , now return to tho bosom of their constituents to receive the reward of their public virtue /” Lancaster Whig. “We would he doing violence to our sense of justice and honor, were wo to say one word in commendation of tho legislature. Wo regard its adjournment a public blessing, and those who have been guilty of improvident legislo lion, incompotency, and neglect of the bust ness committed to their hands by an honcat and confiding constituency, will have leave to adjourn sine die themselves.”—Beading Press, jt. jy. .

Every class'of Jiving things has its.-uses; its design and mission on earth: and no class or kind can'be exterminated without inflicting iu jiiry'on (he human family* Even bisects have their uses and beneficial effects in the economy of nature.. If.they check vegetation and reduce the crops, they in many regions and districts prevent over-production, and exhaustion of the soil. But, while nature has assigned to them a task and a use, it has- provided against the too abundant, increase of their numbcrs'by making the insects themselves food for birds. But.for the birds and insects, worms and ver* rain would-become so numerous' as to destroy all vegetation. The feathered tribes keep down their increase to a safe limit, and would thus preserve a just balance in nature but for the I wanton propensity of man todestroy the birds. A gun may be found in almost every farm house ip the country, and, while if ’is* useful for some purposes, it destroys arid frightens away the best friends of the husbandman.— They uot only greet him ‘ with their morning songs, and - delight Wtn with their gay plum age, their infinite variety and their active and sprightly industry, but they protect his crops from the increase of vermin that would destroy them. If they devour a few bushels, of his grain they compensate him for it by prevent ing the destruction- of ten times more than they claim as their reward. * Were we a farmer wo would cultivate Hie birds as assiduously as wc would the domestic fowls, and would welcome them to an undis turbed home in our neighborhood. Their morning melodics are more delightful than the best serenade of a oily band'. Their cheerful’ activity gives life to the orchards, the fliMs and tfie forests. They arc pleasant and harm less friends of man, and their wanton destruc tion is not only cruel, but most injurious to the farmer and gnrdncr. But strong as the reasons are that demand an increase of the feathered tribes, man with his murderous gun pursues them until in thickly settled regions they are almost exter minated. Were the usee of these birds under stood, aud'lhcir melody, then; innocence, and their beauty duly appreciated, the guns of the urchins and the Rportam&i would almost as soon be aimed at the domestic fowls.' A wri ter in the Gcnnessee Fanner, an excellent agri cultural journal, has the following just re marks on this subject : Suppose the State of New York hod a thous and rohhins where it now has one, how many caterpillars, moths, woims, grubs, and other rm acinus insects would those birds consume? If pubtio opinion were onj? enlightened on this subject, so as to protect ail insectivorous birds, wo should soon cease to complain of curculios, weevils, peach tree and apple tree borers, pea bugs. and a hundred garden birds, tlics,snails, grass hoppers, locusts, cotton and tobacco worms. We have had opportunities for study ing most of these depredators, and regard the unnatural destruction of birds, and their ex pulsion fnira all so-called civilized communi ties, as the principal cause of the increase ofin sccts. 4 • « « » • • < Let us study Nature and observe how near- 1 ly all the feathered tribes, with which wc are 1 familiar, hatch their young at that season of , the year when insects and their larva most a bound. when so many millions are daily con sumed to feed the voracious broods of rapidly growing birds. In Maryland and Virginia large flocks of turkeys arc' reared expressively to be driven through uEbbacco fields by children "to worm tho crop."*’ A turkey, from the time it is Inrgpjenoiigh to cat n worm till It at tains its full growth, will consume an incredi ble number of insects, and forcibly illustrates an important law. Barn yard fowls, doves and pigeons may also be cultivated at a profit. Were it not for the fact that insects devour each other, and arc destroyed in countless numbers every year by the birds, they might soon accumulate,to such an extent as to sweep every vestage of vegetation from the face of the earth. The extermination of all the feathered tribes in wanton sport, and in ignorafleo of Nature’s laws, would tend rapidly tqwards such a rcsu)t. There aro very few birds that, do harm, and their mishiof can be prevented by far better means than by killing them. It should be made a penal oftence to kill a harm less bird, for it is a public injury. Nor i.s the : injury in tho aggregate a trifling one. Taking ' this whole country together the birds, by des troying the insects and vermin, save food enough each year to feed a city ns lorge as , Philada. Let every farmer cultivate bidrs, encourage their free and unmolested use of his forests ami fields, and their rapid multiplica tion in hia neighborhood. They will help to f protect bis crops, and increase their quantity. 1 They may commit some depredations but ’ (hoy will do for him tenfold more good than . harm. Nature’s God has adjusted a nice balance among all Jiving things, and for a wise and be neficent purpose. If there wore no insects and worms tho rankness of vegetation would soon exhaust tho soil. If there was no cheek to tho multiplication of insects and vermin they would soon destroy all vegetation. The birds are the check. If mankind for mere wanton sport destroys the birds tho insects and vermin increase, and the crops arc consequently re duced. Birds Ut for food may be killed for that purpose. Bui such as arc not used for food should not be destroyed. Sai.e of tub Main Link.—Tho bill for tho sale of tho Main Line of tho public works of this State, has been signed by the Governor and is now ft law. Tho minimum price, os fi nally fixed by the Legislature, is semi and a half millions of dollars, except to the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company, to, which t he minim um price is fixed at eight and ft half millions of dollars. This additional price to the Rail road Company is in consideration of tho remis sion of tho tax of three mills now imposed by tho State on the Company. There is great uncertainty of finding a purchaser at tho price fixed. The total receipts of the Main Lino from Nov. 30, 1853, l»tlio Ist of April. 1854, wore §378,003 51; for the same period in the pres ent year, 8248,486 49; thus showing a de crease in 1863 of 8130.177 OS, of which about 860,000 was from the disuse ol tho Allegheny Portage Hoad by tho Pennsylvania and Central Hoad, after tho completion of tho latter.

Judge Loring. it i will be remembered, while acting ns a United 1 States Commissioner,restored thefngilivo Burns to his master, a decision which produced some disturbance in Boston among the Anti Slavery portion of tho population. " To punish him for, that decision the present Legislature addressed the Governor for his removal from tho offlce.of Probate, which ho also holds. - The Governor refuses to agree to the address, because the Leg- 1 , ialaturo has no right U> remove a judge at their 1 mere wish, and without cause. As tho Gov ernor interprets the constitution, the Judges hold office during good behavior, and aro re moved by impeachment for crime, apd by ad dress for any dispensation of Providence that makes them, without criminality, incompetent to perform properly thd duties of their office.— It is not alleged that Judge Loring has com mitted any crime against the laws of thcUnilcd Slates or of Massachusetts. Iti* not alleged that lie is rendered unfit for the pcrfornmnceof tho duties of his office by Insanity, physical uir capacity, or any other visitation of Providence. Tho Governor says: * . To tho, allegation that Judge Boring .has shocked tho popular sentiment of Massachu setts, it ( may bo pertinent to ask what tho du ty judges is. ' Are they to expound the laws as made by tho lawmaking power, or are they to construe them in accordance with popular sentiment 1 When the time arrives that a judge so violates his oath of office ns to shape his de cisions according to tho fluctuations of popular feeling, wo bcoomo a govormhent not* o! laws but of men. . . Supposing, as is alleged, that according to tho ordinary balancingof conflicting testimony, the decision of Judge Loring was erroneous, no ono asserts or believes that ho wilfully adjudi cated wrongly and corruptly. Tho error,if er ror it bo considered, wasa mistake. la ajndgc, I then, to bo removed from office, even if m th< I execution of that office he gives a mistaken jud gement? Such an impractical and dangerous I policy would lend to a daily removal amoogju dioiaf officers ©four inferior courts as often as their decisions wore over-ruled by higher tribu nals. Tho reasoning of the Gov. is good and sound, and tho attempt of tho Massachusetts Legisla ture to nullify tho constitution and laws or tg' United Stales has been very properly rebuked by the Governor.
