present, The business OF the session will COM
mence to-day. Besides applications for eight

claim attention. An importaat bill relative
TO Tho insolvent system, we learn, will be re-
ported by the com mittee instfucted at . pre-
vious session TO consider the subject and We
are not without hope that the Assembly will
make such change OF modification in the sys-
TEN, as shall furnish additional security a.

tedious aud burdensome duty of adjusting the
claims Of insolvent petitioners. With The

that the time and the aueonoD OF our legis-
IAtors are, necessarily, so mach employed In
the disposal Of private business, that the car

Missouri Erfeditioa.--By gentle
man from the Council Bluffs, we learn,
that DR.. Say and the party who proceed
ed by land, had arrived in safety at the
Council Bluffs, and met with no further
difficulty from the Indians. The Indians
in the vicinity of the Council Bluffs,
were peaceable and friendly. The keel
boats, with all the troops, except those
who went in the steam boat Jefferson,
had arrived, and those were expected in
few days. The Western Engineer had
also arrived, and the scientific party had
determined to winter at the Bluffs. The
steamboat Expedition lay near Sugar
Tree Bottom, about eight miles above
Cow. Island, aground. The Johnson lay
between Fort Usage and Cow Island.
They had abandoned the idea of pro-
crossing further.
The Missouri is extremely low, and it
is with tie greatest difficulty that even
the keels proceeded.
The winter quarters at the Bluffs,
were rapidly progressing.
One of the keel-boats, with quarter
masters and ordnance stores, had sunk,
The whole of the cargo lost, but all the
persons on board escaped.
