OTSome of our Racine friends, from expressions
of feeling which have come to our ears, are rather
indignant, that the Southport Dolly men should have
appointed their meeting, in justification of the Ex-
ecutlve, to be held at the of justice-.or cay
they, ''the object in selecting Racine for this pur-
pose, was to induce the impression abroed that the
village is somewhat friendly to his Excellencv and
thereby create in the mind of the Delegate and 9TH
ers feeling against it, which would seriously in
erfere with It's prospects of obtaining harbor ap-
proprintion!' Whether not there is foundation
for this belief, we cannot say; but we are not sur
prlsed for the odium which attaches to the name
OF Doty, at the senstlveness of the people of Ra-
cine upon the subject-and think it would be
better if the Southport Doty office holders at their
subsequent meeting, to sustain their grand head
were little more careful not tn row any portion
of the odium of their doings upon inhabitants of sis

New HAmPsHIRE.-The Legisatuse of New
Hamsshire have made some important advances
towards more enlightened policy in the domestic
institutions of that state. The following excellent
resolutions were recently adopted the Legislature
in relation TO the practice of law.
l. Any person of good moral character on appli-
cation to the Supreme Court, shall be admitted to-
practice attorney.
2. Every party in cause, prosecution, or suit,
may appear, plead, pursue, defend in his proper
person, or by any citizen of good moral character

APPROPRIATION.

Congress has made an appropriation of
$4,000 for the Territory. This has pro-
duced great shout among the Doty men,
just as if they supposed that some great
party triumph had been achieved. We see
no cause here for retracting what we have
said in relation to this matter; all we have
said we are willing to say again on the
subject. We insisted that the governor
was highly culpable for refusing TO commu-
nicate in a respectful manner with the le-
gislature-and whether he was right or
wrong in mis- opinions, relative to the $40
600 appropriation, 1t matters but little so
far as his fitness for the station he now
holds is concerned.
The fact that an appropriation has been
made, does not settle the question as to the
intention Of the former appropriation Of
$4,000. There are some points which it
would be we'll for those who pretend to wis
dom in this matter to explain. The law Of
Congress passed at the last session in rela-
;ion to holding legislative sessions in the
Territories, applied to Iowa the same as to
Wisconsin-this no one will deny. In the
bill which recently passed Congress-, ma
king an appropriation for Wisconsin, there
is also an appropriation, we are informed,
for Iowa. The Legislature of Iowa COM
menced its session on the first Monday Of
December last; the same day fixed by law
for the convening Of the legislature Of this
Territory. The legality OF the session in
Iowa has not been questioned by any one.
If it was illegal for Wisconsin to hold a
session, was it not equally SO for IGwa?-
For what purpose was the appropriation
for Iowa made? was it for the session Of
IS44?-tha, is altogether imp robable.
