tion. Of every right, public and private, which
lhs Constitution and The Laws have established. Z
The Speaker laid before The House a letter
from the Treasurer, transmitting the responses Of
the Banks in relation 10 he loan Of $350,0O0 TO
the Sa,e--some Of them agreeing to the terms
proposed = g. day curtailments Of per cent
and Others offering 10 loan upon condition that
payment be made on the 18th Of December Hext-
This will render necessary The passage Of q new
law on the subject
Various inquiries were ordered during the
week; Richard D. Sanxayl submitted, through
Mr.. Gallaher, on wednesday, proposition 10
furnish The State with new and revised edition
or Hening's Justice, for the use Of the magis-
traies-and on Friday, through Mr.. Daniel, a
proposition TO furnish a revised edition Of the
Criminal Laws Of the State.
Mr.. Taliaferro laid before the Housea letter
from Chapman Johnson, Esq, on the subject Of
( The Revision Of The Criminal Code, in which Mr.
]. states that he has arranged and compiled
Statues on AZ Of the most important subjects,
and that eleven other subjects remain to be com
piled. Mr.. J. is afraid his professional engage
ments will prevent him from completing The
work by The next session Of the Legislature, and
therefore suggests that some other person should
be entrusted with that duty promising, however,
any aid which il may be in his power to give,
either verbally Or otherwise. Mr.. Taliaferro
hoped some arrangement might be made by
| which an assistant should be assigned 10 Mr..
johnson, so as to have the work completed ac-
Fcording to The plao devised BY that gentleman
j and, on Mr.. T1s'motion, the let:er was referred
10 she Committees Or Courts of Justice.
"A large portion Of Fridays sitting was occu-
Epsed with debate upon divorce case from the
County Of Marion. Il was the application Of
Jacob Kearns, TO be divorced from This wife Ma
tliida, on the ground Of fraud praclised upon him
previous to tie marriage contract, and the sub
sequent bad conduc,of his wife. The House re-
lversed the decision Of the committee-declared
The petition reasonable-and ordered bill 10 be
brought IN accordingly.
These divorce cases usually bring TO notice a
Emass of disgusting facts, not much calculated
ITO benefit the public morals.
Another application followed from a lad, Whc
had been abandoned by her husband, but the
House refused TO grant her relief.
