HE ADJoURNMENT.-B Houses
oil the Assembly adjourned on Saturday
evening, oath after session of two
weeks. They passed sir acts, three
of them of a general, and three of 10.
cal character; and expended about
$40, 900 Of the money Of the Common.
wealth. We have not the exact titles
ofthe acts, but can state the purport Of
them, viz:
/. An act to stay proceedings on ex.
ecutiors, trust deeds and other eviden.
ces of debt, in case Of refusal to re-
ceive Bank notes.
,. An act for tho temporary relief
Of the Banks of this Commonwealth.
3. An act concerning the States
proportion ofthe surplus revenue ofthe
United States, and for other purposes.
A. An act to amend the act of the
last session, authorizing a subscription
of two. flths ofthe increased capital Of
the Portsmouth and Roanoke Railroad
Company.
b. An act to provide payment for
the services of the clerk Of the joint
committee on Banks, and for the extra
services of the public printer and the
printer to The Senate.
q. An act to release the taxes for
the present year upon the town lots in
the town Of Suffolk, the buildings on
which were destroyed by fire.
This is an average ofsomething more
than $4,000 for each act--and the
question may well be asked, was the
service rendered worth the COST The
infallible democrats" who pretend so
much generation for the public will,
gave the people a STAY LAW, which
was not asked for, and denied relief in
the way Of small change, which was
DANGEROUSLY sought for by large bodies
ofthe people. They also "tied up the
hands Of the Banks" and have requi>
red them to curtail at season of the
year when the spring business gener.
ally opens, February and March, } and
when common sense and ak mercan.
tile experience would have dictated an
expansion.

p- We have seen the suspension Of specie
payments by the Banks charged upon he Whip
and their measures, We would like TO be in.
formed, il the suspension be the effect Of Wing
measures, why the bard money men are 30
prompt to sanction it! They are opposed to any
currency but the 4" constitutional" one cry out
against the banks and their issues-and when the
banks suspend specie payments, they, without
hesitation relieve the banks from any penalty
incurred by suspension, s. permit them to issue
paper without making it Immediately redeemaDis
in gold or silver. In those states where extra
sessions of Legislatures have been called the
hard money democrats have had the sway, and
under their direction, bank paper has expanded
until it is no longer controllable. But in those
states where the wings have majorities, " in
Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Lou
isiana, Sc, extra sessions have not been called
or thought necessary.
