SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE.

SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The legislature have now been in session
60 days, counting from Monday, 18th Dec.
inclusive.
They have had variety of bills before
them: but most OF them were of pers onal
or local description. Petition pressed upon
petition, report succeeded to report, and
bill came after bill, until the mass OF this
species Of business has equaled, if not ex-
ceeded aay thing, of which we have had "a
ny experience. The number of acts, how
ever, which have been absolutely passed
does not yet exceed 40 or SO; and none of
these, as far as our recollection extends, is
of very general orvery important descrp-
ton.
The bills of public character which
have excited the deepest interest, have de-
scended to the " tomb of the Capulets." -
The principal of these are, the Retrench-
msnt and the Replevin bills Each of these
occupied perhaps, from first to last, three
or four entire days; but they were both
lost. The last received its coup de grace
in the house of delegates the first found
IFS way into the other house, where it was
manned limb by limb, and fingered out a
precarious existence of two or three days.
The most important work of the session is
yet to be done Several bills Of public
nature are now before them--among these,
is bill TO amend the usury law bill
with substitute forit, proposing some i'm
portant changes in the penitentiary system,
and bill TO change some of The statutory
provisions respecting slaves. free negroes,
and mulattoes. This bill proposes 10 pre-
vent any person from emancipating his
slave, without giving good security that
such slave shall be conveyed beyond the IL
mits of the u. States within l2 months af-
ter such emancipation. 1t provides that if
such emancipated slave shall return to this
commonwealth, he snail forfeit all right to
freedom that if Iny free negro or mulat-
Toe shall migrate to this commonwealth, he
may be apprehended and sold as slave ;
that ifany free person of color shall be con-
vcted Of trading with slave without writ
len permission from his master, he shall
forfeit his right to his freedom: & that here.
after the copy Of the register Of free persons
of color shall be in print, with the exception
Alexandria gazette & daily advertiser. [volume] (Alexandria [Va.]) 1817-1822, 1821-02-08

OF such part as shall be neees arlly IN Wr''-
ing. 1t contains some other provisions re :
speeding slaves; hut as its fate IS YET uncer-
tain, we forbear entering into further spe-
cifcation. Besides these and other general
bills, the house are yet to act on the propo'
siiion from the committee of finance tor re-
ducing the members wages to dollars, and
the mileage TO 8. And also further lmpor.
tant resolution from the same committee,
for reducing the taxes of lands, lots, houses,
sc. 25 per cent. Various other schemes
from the same committee, erecting guards
against the abuses of all the collectors Of
the public monies, are embraced in the
same report.
The principal measures connected with
the two large boarda Of the commonwealth
are YET to be decided.
The great question of improving the wes-
tern communication is to be determined by
the fate of bill, now pending upon that
subject.
The measures touching the university, "a
cademies, elementary schools, &c. are yet
to receive de6nitive shape. The amount
of the deficit, too, created in this literary
fund by the operations of the late treasurer,
is yet to oe de6nitvely reported. as well as
the measures, if any, which are to be taken
on his memorial for adjusting his accounts
with the commonwealth.
The fate of the armory too is yet to be de-
cided. Besides these, many other subjects
of internal improvement, in which some OF
the sections of the commonwealth are deep
ly concerned.
One of the most interesting matters be-
fore the legislature is yet to be noticed. We
mean the two reports, with the resolutions.
touching the citation OF the commonwealth
to answer to complaint before the supreme
court of the U. States.
When we cast our eye back upon the
ground which we have thus plotted out of
The pending measures of the legislature. it
is scarcely possible to persuade ourselves
tina, the session will wind up before the 25tb
or 28th of the month.

GENERAL REMARKS.
Being nearly at stand in conse.
quence of the embargo, Which the ice
has laid upon our shipping. we had not
intended to resume our weekly reports
at this tine. but for The arri, al of the
vessels which were mentioned before
as endeavouring to force their way up
: to the Point, and in which they sue
ceeded alter great labor--their carsoes
(Which are quite inconsiderable in
quantity consist principally of the su-
gar and coffee mentioned in our pre-
ceding re,iew--the holders have tried
the market, and have experienced the
truth of a remark that we have often
made respecting our purchasers who
will not in general buy any article in
anticipation, preferring to pay the
current price. whatever it may be.
when they are in want of supplies, and
have vent for their goods. We have
nothing to add t. our previous remarks
IN any way interesting. Our sales
both by auction b otherwise are nearly
suspended, and we cannot assume what
may be the future state of our market,
when our present position is changed.
Weshall doubtless have very large sup
plies, as soon as the navigation clears;
but as far as our experience extends,
we have never found our prices so
much depressed by large arrivals,
when accompanied with an extensive
demand, as they are by inconsiderable
additions to the stock of the market
when in state of comparative stag
nation.
