SESArE-Yesferday afternoon and this
morning have been spent mostly in consid-
ering in committee OF the whole. the bill to
appoint commissioners to revise the practice
OF our courts. The question which has
caused the most discussion, is as To what
length Of time the Office of the commission
ers h a exist. Some think the report Of the
commissioners can be made as we'll in two
months as in two years. Others thiuk that
a year or VOL is one too much. The quss-
uon, at the time of recess, had not eeen de-
clded. The matter will probably come up
again this afternoon.
Mr.. Waiter introduced a bill this morning,
providing for the erection Of two new Luna
tic Asylums, one north and one south ofthe
National Road. This is a very important
and necessary movement, and we are glad
that the subject is in able hands, in the
hands ofmen who will attend to it.
The House resolution asking Congress to
appropriate lands and money to construct a
ship canal around the falls Of Saul ST. Mary,
were read and laid on the table.
HoUsE.-Yesterday afternoon there was
quite a discussion upon the report of the Sc
lect committee, relative to instrucling our
Senators and requestingour Representatives
in Congress to make donations VI l.ud and
money to the building of n ship canal and
railroad around the Falls of the ST. Mays
River.
The first part, relative to the canal, was
passed without much dissent, it being re-
gardeda as u strictly National work. But the
other branch of the question drew out the
most severe animadyersious Of the Demo
Gratis.
Mr. Brown made 3 very cogent, forcible,
and convincing constitutional argument, in
Opposition TO the doctrine oil unrestricted in
ternal Improvements, within the States by
the General Government. This is the true
Democratic platform, as we understand it,
and ought not to be deserted.
Mr.. Weller also very strongly reprobated
the principle sought to be c~overtly passed by
Democratic votes under the thin disguise OF
acting for the interests of their constituents,
when these grants were TO be made to spec
u@lators of Michigan.
Messrs. Haley and LcBlond also took
strong constitutional grounds against it.
This morning the tax law was read the
second time and made the order of the day
for Tuesday next.
We had also two reports Of an important
character from the committee on Privileges
and Elections.
The first on the case Of Isaac Parish. who
claims to be the representative of Noble
county
LIST. Rcsolvca, That Noble county is no;
entitled toa separate Representative, as Ia
ken apart from the counties OF which it was
formed. And
81. That Isaac Parish is not, conse.
quently, entitled to a seatin this House.
The committee reported on the record o
the Morgan county contested case, and in
favor of William Beswick.
Both reports are to be printcd.-States

THE JoTs OF CoNvALEscEEcE.-There are
few sensations known to the human heart
more alive with sweet Joy and peaceful hap,
piness, than the consciousness of returning
health. When sickness for months and years
has pressed the spirit d~own-when pain and
anguish have filled to the brim the cup of
despair, how joyful to feel within the glad,
some flow of health
Such very often are the household joys
throughout the length and breadth of our
land, where the pale and CHASTITY Consump-
tive has been changed to one blooming pic
ture of health, by the timely use of that e1,
~cellent and long tried remedy, DR.. Wistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry. See advertisement.

EF DR. Guysott's Improved Extract Of
Yellow Dock and S~arsaparilla. put up in the
argest sized bottles contains more of the
jure Honduras Sarsapanlla than any other
preparation eKtant, which is chemically COM
bined with the extract Of Yellow Dock and
the extract Of Wild Cherry, thus making the
remedy more thoroughly efficient than any
Sarsaparilla before the public. At the same
time It is perfectly free from all mineral poi
sons, which cannot be said Of any other Of
the Sarsaparilla compounds. The invalid
should beware of poisOnsl Mercury, Iron,
Quinine, Potash. Iodine, Sulpher, Arsenic.
and many other mineral and metallic poisons
enter into and form the active basis Of most
Of the ~SarsaparillaS and Panaceas Of the day.
Guysott's Compound Extract of Yellow Dock
and Sarsaparilla does not contain a particle
of these substances; as any one can ascertain
by applying the necessary tests. Let all
poisonous ~Sarsaparilla preparations alone,
and use Guysott's Improved Extract of Vel,
low Dock and Sarsaparilla, which is thorough
ly eficacious, perfectly harmless and purely
vegetable. All kinds of disease yield to lis
genial influence. See advertisement.

SgxAra -Ye3terIay afternoon and this
morning the SenIte have been engaged in
'commitce of the Whole on the bill defining
he jurisdiction and regulating the practice
OF Probate Courts. Many amendments, Of
not more importance than 10 render perfect
the language of the bill, have been sIopced.
The principal discussion, So far, has been as
to the amount of jurisdiction thst the cour
shall have. The bill, as reported, gave this
court e~-ctasiys jurisdiction in the sale and
partition Of lands by executors, administra-
tors and guardians, and in the completion OF
real contracts o~fexGcutorS and administrators
The committee have agreed to give the Pro
bate and Common Pleas Courts concurrent
Jurisdiction in these matters.
The principal discussion this morning has
been on the section empowering the Judges
OF Probate to perform the duties of clerks Of
their own courts. There is considerable dill,
ference OF opinion on this point: the majority.
however, seem to think that the power shoulc
be given. Those in favor of it contend tina
the people expect, and that the convention
intended that this shoull be done. The
question had not been decided up to The time
OF recess.
l1oUsE.-A considerable amount Of bust.
ness in the usual order, was transacted this
morning, but nothing of very general in
terest, Mr.. Ward, Of Crawford, offered :
resolution calling on the Auditor Of State fol
the correspondence between himself and The
officers or agents Of Railroad Companies
relative to the very interesting matter Of tax
Certain gentlemen seem to be particularly
sensitive on this point. 1t is to be hoped
that such delicate scruples and qualms 0
conscience may not prove fatAl to the gen
tleInen in q~urstion-what a loss it would b.
TO the State vt large!
The House went into committee OF tht
whole, the order of the day being Mr.. Cock
eriIls bill regulating fees Of witnesses. At
ter some time they rose and reported pro.
gress. not having finished The consideration
Of the bill.
