The Acknowledgment
ALBANY, Tuesday, aug. ..
La the SEsATE, an Apportionment bill District
ing the State as shown in paper Of yesterday
was reper,ed by the Select Committee, PASSED
through ali It's stages without objection IN the
course Of the day, and sent TO tho House. so there
j. a, las. beginning made on the business OF the
Session.
The resolution of MIR. Faulkner, as amended by
the Senate, directing postpoaenent OF the sale
of the Erie Railroad under the State Mortgage
was discussed a. length. Mr.. Hunters amend
ment was rejected: Yeas 8; Nays 1e. Mr. Ru-
GER moved an amendment, providing that such
! postponement shall take place only in case the
Company within GO days give ample security for
the repayment of the s., 00e, 600 advanced by the
State. He thought if some such proviso were not
adopted, it would be centended that the State had
bound itself to complete the work. Mr. FAUX
NER disclamed and denied the justice of this IN
ference, and the Senate refused to reconsider in
behalf of this amendment: Ayes g; Nays 90
The resolution then passed: Ayes %; Nays 6.
The ASSEMBLY busted itself with laying Rail
| road Petitions on the table: Ayes 81; Nays 4e.
The proceedings of the Owego Democratic Con-
| veaton were similarly treated u TO AZ. Also,
! petition for the completion of the new Locks at
| Lockport; 80 to 80.
The ground being thus cleared, the House went
into Committee on Gen. Dix's Resolutions con-
demning the Single District section Of the APpor-
tionment Law of Congress, and proposing an
amendment Of the Federal Constitution: which
Gen. DIX supported at length, and was ably an
swered by Mr.. SIMMONS. Before the latter had
concluded, the Committee rose and the House ad-
journed.
! r"The Tribune defends the nonstrous frauds of the
Am. Life Insurance and Trust Co." Union.
| Major Noah why acont you tell the truth once
century, for the variety of the thing? What
frauds of the Company have we defended =
What evidences of frauds have been laid before
the public? 1. the mere fact of failure proof
positive of fraud And are We to judge every
man villain who ha: held stock in or had dealings
with an institution that becomes insolvent7
Here is your wrong which rebuked; and we
ask you to look it in the face. Of the management
of this Trust Company we know nothing; but we
do know that you have held up honorable and just
men to unmerited odium merely because they had
borrowed money Of this Company on abundant
security How can you defend your conduct?
Here you, with the base intent of turning this
failure to political account, have insnuated that its
funds have been spent in Wing electioneering, and
that none but Wings had loans from it. We have
nroped the assertion untrue and if you will offer
any evidence to Justify the insinuation, we will
use that likewise. Why don't you support or re-
tract YOUR former assertions instead of making
new ones
Isp1AkA.-The scale appears to turn against US
but we do not give up. The last Indiana } our
nal seems to admit that the Legislature will be
Loco Foco by two majority in Joint Ballot but
saws that three Of the Lccos pledged to vote for
Wing Senator their Districts being strongly
Wing We don't rely mach on such pledges
But there have been several elections close that
we think the Journal may be mistaken in the
suits it admits, as we have accounts of contrary
tenor. In one District tie is reported.
~ The Rochester Democrat misrepresents and
then condemns resolution passed at a recent
Wing Delegate Convention in this City. That re-
solution simply states that Hon. LUTHER BRAD
ISL is the decided choice of the Wings Of this
CITY, but does not instruct the Delegates to sup
port him at all hazards. or indeed at oil. We ask
the Democrat as an act of simple justice, to pub
ish the resolution, and let its readers what it
condemns so unqual6edly. We cannot see that
our City has gone farther in expressing its prefer
encc than have those Counties wherein the Wing
journals display the name of the man OF their
choice at the head of their columns. And if
modesty (" especially becomes the Wings Of
New-York, why not those of Steuben and Che
mung?
10 Our friend GEO. w. KENDALL of the n. O..
Picayune, dropped into town day or two since,
looking scarcely the worse for all the bufaloes,
wolves, prarie-dogs, Indians Spaniards, traitors,
praire-6res and nothing to-eat, he encountered on
his adventurous journey Santa Fe, and circuitous
return as gentleman in difficulties. We miss
nothing of him but his whiskers-of his wit and
drollery, not particle has beenscared outo him by
ugly proximity to the wrong end of Mexican shoot
ine.irons with his hands tied and like pieasantries
He assures Us that he means to revise and com.
plete his Santa Fee sketches for collected publica-
ton as soon as he can find leiRure-which we hope
will be this summer.
