Rice, of Taladega) bst upon thorough exam ination of all the evidence which procured from the Bank al Decatur sending for persons and pa. pcrs, before the joint examining committee raised upon the subj ect of Bank frauds the committee yes- teralav reported the evidence. It was all read before the house, and resolution mDusly adopted, freeing Mr. Rice from the charges. These proceed ings are matters orecordhs they become part of the Journals. Several excited debates have recently ta- ken place in the House. The charge was boldl, made few days since, that the Democratic party being m the majority, were rightly chargeabe with all the difficulties and misnanagemcnts ofour Banks, but the charge being entirely unfounded, of course was successfully rcpelled, so successfully that silence peryaded the whig ranks They have at last got oilr city charter back again and passed to third reading The whig gentlemen fought manully but were met at every corner and repulsed. Tthe finally taken in ordering to third leading resulted for it's passage fity-one votes, against 1t thirty two several honest wings voted with us. The Bill is in strict conformi- " with the resolutions of friends at their meet ings. Another Bill to define the manner of recieving votes by the managers of elections, passed to third readng considerable debate took place in regard to the custom of appointing inspectors in our county.
