VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE.

The reader will see from the sketches
of their proceedings which We have reg.
uIarly published. that no great subjects Of
general concern have yet been decided.--
From a view of the business that was like
" to come before them, it seemed to be
the general impression. that little would
be done, and that the session would be a
short one. The prospect however, seems
10 be changed within few d,ys. Some
of the members calculate that the session
will be long one; and We have even
heard the 10th of March named as near
the date of its continuance. The Uni.
yersity question, the removal of the seat
of government, the Armory, the peniten-
tiary. memorial OF Prestons securities, the
Marylaod Resolutions; and perhaps the
great question of State Rights, &c. &c
may take up much Of their time. Their
communication with the Kentucky Com.
missioners, will probably, Of itself, add
one week to the session. These ques.
ton. should be met and decided; but ii
is sufficiently obvious, thatif the members
do not greatly econemize their time, they
will scarce be up BY the ideas Of
March" kich. Eng.

ed before that body previous to the in'fo
duct,on OF a bill, smending former
law prescribing cerlain duties 10 the al-
lorney general. and goin'Dg hlul TO pros
ecu,e such persons as, under the prelext

nold possession OF said Batture. The
damages were held at one hundred thou
sand dollars Counsel sor the plaintiff,
Messrs. E. Livingston, Workman. and
Derbigny-for the defendant Messrs A
L Duncan; anu J y ftawkins.
The cause was opened by Judge work
man ON the part OF the plaintiffs. The
principal ground ehed on was, that ale
though MI. uarigny had right to make
the speech before the legislature, he had
no right TO publish if. The defendants
counsel declined to reply, deeming the
principles involved too we'll settled toned
Illustration or argument. Mr Marigny,
however, spoke ably in his own oetence,
g. was replied to by MessIs Derb'gny and
Livingston, the latter OF whom displayed
considerable ingenuity.
Judge Dick delivered short but per-
tinent and impressive charge to the jury
He decided that the right to speak. was
| nece ssarially accompanied by the right to
publish, and remarked, that it was no,
| merely the right, but frequently the duty
of 4 legislator. to make known to bis con-
sti,uen,s the course which he has pursued
in ms representative capacity.
The verdict OF the jury was, in contor-
nifty with these principles, given in favor
of the defendant.
The Advertiser remarks, that similar
action had been commenced against 10.
seph H. Hawkins, Esq by the same par.
ties, claiming 1000 damages, which
has been dismissed by the plaintiffs, since
