ADJoURNMENr.-The session of the Legislature
seems destined to stretch out to an nterminable
length. The House most likely passed the Railroad
bill yesterday. 1t must now pass the ordeal of the
Senate, which body has, since the House has been
engaged on the sale bill, been occupied with the Re-
vision. Apart ofths has past the Senate with lit
tie alteration, while in the House it was greatly a.
mended; consequently the latter body now sits down
revise its proceedings the revionas far had
already gone, and conclude the remainder. month
will most likely be consumed on this subject. Be-
sides all this, there the Judiciary bill of Messrs
Denton and Allen, and one can tell what else, so
the Enlightened prospect tires the view." Well
no matter The State is rich and able to pay the
piper.

A SAMPLE OF THE WAY 1T is DONE.
An experience of eight years in the business of
running our railroads under the direction of state of
hcefs-so far from producing system of enconomy
in their management, seems only to have perfected
those entrusted; in the work 81 waste and progacy
At the commencement, moity of the receipts of the
Central road found its way to the treasury after pay
ing the expenses of running and repairs. A few
years practice however seems to have exploded this
mode of doing busness,as quite too old fashioned and
antqated, for the tase of the political economists of
Michigan and by system of progression adapted to
the growing cupidity of mercenary horde, we
soon reached the point at which the receipts of
roads, were inadequate to their wants. To have adj
mltted the TRUTH that the receipts of our roads,
less than the expences of running them, would at
once have decided the question in favor of their sale.
To avoids disposal of them, and retain in the lands
of the managers and hangers on this means of sup
port and influence, species of Legerdemain was
resorted to in the matter of rendering the annual
accounts, by which the deusive hope of great profits
from our roads, was kept up from year to year, until
the true condition of the state could be no longer
concealed by deception and Misrepresentation. It
now stares us full in face, and instead of presenting
that delightful state of prosperity, with the antcipa
ton of which we have SO long been amused; it opens
to us budget OF inquity, exhibiting for years an
annually increasing debt, for running and repairs
of roads, which, with the accumulation of inter-
est on our loan, has swelled to millions, and now
leaves US no alternative but sale, or repudaton-
The details of the process by which we have been
deuded and cheated into this condition, though use
full only as marks of distinction to be set upon the
authors of our degradation, demand notice for that
casue alone, and we are deceived if, the exhibits
of the current year, do not show on examination,
great improvement in the system of fraud and profit
gacy. PUBLIUS.

THE RAILRoAD.-f any proofs were wanting OF
the ability of our Boston soveregns to command our
allegiance with their money, they might readily be
found in the zeal which all at once, at this critical
uncture, springs up in the breast of almost every
editor in the State.
No matter what may be its politics, or to what
cause sheet is devoted, just at this moment; every
thin is merged into the sale of the Railroad That is
the measure which is required to the State.
Although no estimate be presented of the prob
able amount of benefit to be derived from it, or the
probable dimnution of taxes it will effect the sale
is loudly called for the magic plaster which is to
heal all distresses. The arms of company of Bos-
ton money kings is to be refuge from ourselves
True, we may be strangled in their huge embrace,
but then we have the memorable consolation, "lf
giant brushes pigmy by his caresses, surely he can
not be to blame"
This new born zeal has just reached the Signal Of
Libertp and never did its sweep tears of blood
over the hcerated backs of southern slaves, more
freely than they now do in behalf of the generous
protectors of the nte;e t. of VI chigan. Hear it.
at cannot be supposed that any company would

which was subject to be allsied or tempered with
No men possessed Of common sense would invest

schools, towns and counties in each precinct on their

is well understood that an alteration of either of
those features in the bill will prevent the purchase
