THE LAws.-The Annapolis Republican
says: awe notice by our exchanges, that
the Laws of the last session of the Mary
land Legislature, have been but recently de-
livered to the counties, and blame for the
delay has been unjuslly attributed TO the
Printer. We know that the Printer Of The
Laws is no. to blame. He contracted to do
the printing by the 2O,h of July, and the
contract was fully complied with, and they
were Immediately placed in The hands Of the
Binder by our worthy State Librarian, who
had copies sen. to the different counties so
soon as they were bound. No body is to
blame for this unparalleled delay Blu, those
who framed and voted for the law in regard
to the Public Printing, which we do say, is
disgrace to the Stale and ought to be re-
pealedn
