more than seven years. 1rne second was an act
to encourage ard promote the culture ofSilk,

provides that hereafter the State shall allow $l5,.
900 instead o f$l0,O0O per annum, towards the
support Of the Public Schools ofthe city. II is be-
lieved that all these bills will pass the Senate,and
become laws. Mr.. Rogers presented the petition
from 81. Landry parish, relative to the division,
which was referred. Appropriations were made
to cover the expense of publishing the land ad-
vertisements, and for several other purposes.
The other days Of the week were principally ia.
ken up in bills Of private nature, and of those
referring to the city o. New Orleans.
A bill for establishing free schools through
out the State, has been read in the House OF

functions on the fourth Mond in January imme
diately following his election; and 10 remain in
office until his successor shall take tlas oath pres
cribed by the Constitution. Sy
The section which provides that no member
