resignation of twelve members Of the Senate
caused by difference of opinion respecting pub.
lie measure, between the majority and the minority
of the Senate; and it being evident that in conse.
quence of the secession from that body of such ,
number Of its members, and the disappearance Of
another, bills requiring a two-third vote could moi
be passed, and quorum for the transaction Of
business requiring the presence of three 6fths was
entirely dependent upon the caprice of a single
member, Who after his attendance had been com.
PEELED by order of the Senate, again departed with
out its leave, and thereby prevented the formation
of such quorum.
The members of the Senate and Assembly are
therefore, required to be in the State Capitol on
Tuesday, the 10th day of June nett, to consider the
several bills pending at the termination of the last
session, and to transact such other business as may
seem to them expedient
If the twelve refractory. members shall appear,
and not again resign, they will stultify themselves
but, surely enough, their degradation is already
complete.

the late General Mejia, who fought against Santa

Meja, being at the head of the party of the Con-

to say that he did all in his power to obtain an ap-

our citizens will make vigorous effort at the next
session to obtain the grant. The United States
from its propnquty, ought to compete successfully
with the British in the commerce of Mexico. 1t is
true that we are carrying on large trade through
the Rio Grande country. The same result would
attend regular and periodical intercourse by
steamers with Vera Cruz.

coolly walked off. To the remonstrances of the

Long Tom (being out and the other i7) replied
by urging the necessity of the case, and his long
deprivation of exercise. We understand that the

INCENpIARisM IN FRANKLIN, LATHE Frank.
lin (Attakapas) Banner of the Goth, says that the
extensive cooper shop Of Messrs Cooper & Lewis
situated on Water street, in Franklin, was set on
fire about IL o'clock last Thursday night, by some
netarious wretch, and when accidentally discovered
it was in brisk fame the door being nearly con-
sumed, and the flames rapidly extending above the
doors. But for the providential discovery at the
moment the whole establishment, and with it all
that portion of the town Of Franklin, would have
been reduced to ashes. The fire was carefully
kinded under the sill of the door, where it would
be most likely to communicate speedily with the
whole concern, and chips and shavings were found
scattered from another shop, from whence they
were brought to kinde the fire, there being no
shavngs about the principal establishment
