Things in Albany.


AS the Legislature OF the Empire State is gipsey-
ing io-dsy-there is interregnum in the pay
however, avail myself OF the opportunity 10 clear
up the sweepings OF last week.
There have been one or two moves in the Houses,
within the past few days that have been OF interest
as showing the future action or non action OF the
Legislature. For instance. il is settled that you N
" York are not TO have the Excise law OF last winter
extended 10 your city. The subject was up In the
Assembly on Friday last, and though there was
decided majority In favor, principle OF extending
the law, yet against the unanimous oppcsilon OF
vour delegation. the project was not pressed II Is
customary on all local questions-polltics excepted
to allow the representatives of County full Prvi-
lege 10 advocate or oppose any measure affecting
their constituents If he or they ask for meas
it is granted-it they oppose. II is not passed.
The argument is that they are answeraple 10 their
constituents for their and wrong Is done theE
will remedy that wrong. So here. II one and all ctthe
NewYork delegation said this question was made test
the Fall electon-that committees were appointed 10
nterrogate candidates-that Temperance ticket was In
nomination which received only 600 votes-and that the
result Overwhelming msjory against any inter
ference with the question. They pledged theL WORD
and sacred honor that they spoke the sentiment OF vast
msjority OF the people of your city. Thus stand mat
present shall not attempt to speculate upon
this result only give you facts You can comment al
pleasure You nor to have The Excise Law this VIM

Speaking of temperance I believe I give you
good news in relation 10 the cause generally. nave
