ILLINOIS.

On the 9th instant a communication was sent
to the Legislature of Illinois by the Judges of the Su-
preme Court, in which they declined to remit one
fourth of THAR salariAsY called nrnn dc IT :
resolution of the Legislature. They alege that
the State of Illinois now pays less for the same
amount Of service in this department than any other
State in the Union. They further prove that in
consequence Of the depreciation of Auditors war
rants since the present system was established
they have had to submit to sacrifice of at leas
twenty per cent. upon the amount of their presen
salaries, fifteen hundred dollars per annum. The
report concludes by informing the Legislature that
the Judiciary is not subordinate" but I" CO.
ordinate branch of the Government, and that il
would be much more for the interest as well the
prosperity of the people, If each branch confined
itself TO the discharge Of those duties imposed upon
IL by the Constitution.
This is hint which might be wisely taken by
the most numerous branch Of a. certain Legislature
sitting at no great distance from the Capitol of the
United States.

The Senate of the State of Ono on Monday
last passed a series of resolutions which had been
previously adopted by the House against the an
nexaton of Texas to the United States. While
these anti-Texas resolves under consideration,
a motion was made to amend them by declaring
That the United States and Texas from their geogrsphi
cal position destined by nature and Of right ought to be
one nation
"That whatever right Spain acquired to Texas by the
treaty of 1872 she has long since surrendered
Tha upon the accession Of the present Government Of
Mexico by the demolition Of the Republican Constitution Of
1924 she forfeited claim the then Government of the State
Of Texas.

tain her separate independence and having maintained her

1t is now ascertained (says the New Orleans Pr
cayune Of the 18th instant) that President JONES
has revoked Gen. DUFF GREEN'S recognition as a
public agent. Various conjectures have been in
dulged to the cause of this extreme measure
some of them quite derogatory to the diplomatic
acumen of the United States funconary, and others
little less equivocal in their import. The Texan
President for some reason or other-whether of
personal or political character, whether because
Gen. Green insinuated a menace bride TO his
Excellency, as the rumors have it-has seen fit to
repel all further intercourse with him. Be the rea-
son for this conduct what it may, .faur pas Of
some sort has been made, which, seen through the
medium OF surmise and exaggeration, looks ugly
and boding in high degree.

NEW YORK SENATORS.

On Saturday last DANIEL S. DICKINSON and JOHN
A. DIX were elected United States Senators by the
Legislature Of New YorE--the former gentleman to
serve during the remainder Of the present Congress
and the latter to fill the seat vacated by the resignation
of Mr.. WRIGHT, whose regular term of service ex-
tended to the 3D. of March, lS49. Mr.. Dickinson
has also been nominated, by caucus of the mem
bers of his party, for reelection for six years from
the Sd of March next, which nomination will nc
doubt be ratified in the Legislature when the cleo
ton formally comes up before that body on the Sd
of February. If we do not mistake, the selection
of the above gentlemen was the result of compro-
mise, which will neutraze the vote of the State OF
New York on the question Of the immediate an
nexation of Texas to the United States, should il
come up for decision in the Senate. The Wing
votes were cast for WILLIS HALL and WILLARD
FILLMORE, and the Native American votes for HAIR
MAN b. CRoPsEY and JONATHAN THOMPSON.

The Legislature of the State of Rhode Island,
on Friday week, passed actor the liberation from
confinement of Thomas w. Dorr, on condition that
ne should take the oath of allegiance to the State
before its Supreme Court The vote on the pas
sage of this law was, in the House Of Representa-
tives, yeas 40, nays 13-in the Senate yeas %,
nays 8. What is most remarkable, considering all
that has been said on the subject Of the imprison-
ment of this individual is, that every Dorrite but
two in the House and three in the Senate voted
against his release the conditions stipulated, al
though, as members of the Legislature each of
those proessed friends of Dorr has taken the very
same oath which he is now required to take, and
had previously voted for extending pardon to other
indicted persons on precisely the same condition.!

THE DEBT OF MICHIGAN.

From the late Message of the Governor to the
Legislature Of the State Of Michigan it appears that
the total recognised debt of the State, including in
terest, is s4,077l77. Of this S3355, 242 is fund
ed, and S72l 1874 unfunded. About $3,O0O,0OO
more Of bonds, including interest are in the hands
Of foreign holders, but not yet recognised by the
State. There is also debt of about $4,000 for
railroad iron and expenses the Southern railroad
The resources of the State, including lands, rail-
roads, machinery, &c. estimated at 90, 100000
The whole taxable property of the State is s2s,-
554, 2s2, and the State tax $57, l0s So Much of
it is not paid up by non-residents The Governor

INDIANA.

The Legislature of Indiana closed its session on
the 18th instant, without having made choice Of a
United States Senator to fill the vacancy that will
occur in the delegation from that State on the 4th Of
March next. For this act of contumacy, in disre.
garding duty at this moment of the highest obiga

people of Indiana will bear this in mind when they
