The revising committee have reported several hills, and they seem t progress as fast in their labors as could be expected. The action of the Legislature upon our internal improvements, iroin preent indications, will save to the state many thousand dollars, by coiiverunsj some of the contemplated oantds and rail roads into turnpikes. ,e ).. The weather still continue war;;-, and remarkably pleasant for i-.-: season of the year. Our oldest citizens cati rcrol.cet but one or two as much so, ati.l the. abash lias been swelled by the snows a. id rams above to an unusual height, ovcr-fi.-iwine most of the bottom, land on the Illinois side, and still continues full. l;o far we have in this part of the State hail but iiula rain, anJ scarcely any snow at all. c have nothing ifw from riori.la, and our exchange papers are cpia'iy barren of important news from Canada.

after telling the collector that it belonged to different individuals, who did not wish to ti5 0 it until spring, he asked for treasury notes, that he might have something safe to lav away. Mr. Henshavv replied, that he was only authorized to pay out ctirient bank bill, and accordingly drew a cheek on the Commonwealth Bank for the who! amount.
