Our readers who had the pleasure of listening
to the Grafton of Mr.. IIEADLEy, last August, be-

will be gratilicd to learn that copies of it can be
obtained at Edwards. We have read it with re-

from the time of the Norman Conquest down to
that of Victoria. This useful and most desira-
bic knowledge is communicated on 70 cards of
about the size of ordinary playing cards, and is
so disposed as to arouse the interest, while it
strengthens the memory, of the players, and
stores their minds with valuable information.-
The game is easily understood and he who
rims il has a right to be considered "ihe best fk-
lor," for he wins it by exhibiting a superiority in
useful attainment.
The latter of the games referred to is yet in
the hands of the publisher. If it follows ("mu.

cannot fail to be highly entertaining, instructive
and popular-communlcating a familiar knowl

and anarchy, and in our judgment is utterly in
consistent with the steady maintenance of that
constitutional Order so indispensable to good
Government; and when it can fairly be said to
be encouraged by the Legislature itself, it would
seem to be time for those who make the laws,
and who have the highest interest of the commu-
nifty in their keeping, to pause and reflect. Cap
ricious legislation is dcspotism and it would be
hard to say that any people would not be safer
and happier under the caprice of one, than of ma
ny; and harder still to expect that any free and
enlightened people would. in these days, long en-
dure either.
Our readers will receive these suggestions for
what they are worth. There is nothing partic-
ularly new in them, or forcible except so far as
they may be just and true. And we will simply
add that our own opinion is that the General As

Law Making.

The Legislature ad iourned on Tuesday morn
ing Of last week, after a Session of twcnty-six
days. Eigh,ytlrec bills were passed, twenty
nine of which originated in the Senate, and fifty
four in the llouse--bcing an average of nearly
four bills per d1y. Whether the Session was
long enough to afford to each subject OF legisla-
tion the careful dcliberation, and the maturcd de-
cision, to which each was entitled, is not, per-
haps, for lis to say. We may be permitted to
express our bcitt, however, that hasty and i'm
mature legislation is getting to be a prominent
evil in our State. A large majority of the two
hundred and fifty or sixty Legislators who are an
nually sent to the Capitol, have conceived, or are
charged with. some project for which they deem
il, desirable to obtain the solemn sanction of Law.
One observes. or las been told, that a particular
Statute, ora particular part of a Statute, operates
oppressively, or Uconrenienay, in one section of
the State and another observes, or has been
told, that additional provisions to existing Stat
utes are demanded in another. Each has his
hll ready, to remedy the real or supposed defect.
The effect is plain to be forcsccn. a mUdtnde
of laws are proposed, each of which has its
friends and advocates Custom, (Which usually has
all the force of law requires that the Session
should not extend beyond from three to five weeks
