Mr.. FRANKLIN explained the bill He said the

| In the ASSEMBLY to-day, Mr.. JONES presented a
| memorial and remonstrance Of the Marine Insur-
Companies I'M the city of New York, against the
| law now pending, contemplating alteration IN the
pilot laws. The objections are based upon the sup
position that this law, ii passed, will interfere with
the law of Congress- by which pilots having licenses
from contiguous - aes, are permitted to pilot YES
sells in and out of the harbor of New York In pre-
| seniIng this memorial, Mr. !. remarked that this

law did not interfere at all with the law of Congress,

You will have ere this, the proposition sub
mltted in the Senate, relative to retrenchment in the
salaries Of State officers These are important re-
FORMS and they appear, too likely to meet with ia
vor in the Legislature. The next move then, should

trenchment equal in every branch Of the State gov
eminent
| The Military Convention organized yesterday and
