The House has again been bored by Of Mr. Cranes
transcendent displays of stupidity and high hown nom
sense What the subject upon which be discoursed
himself hoarse unable to inform you for although
him for some considerable time, must say
that could not divine what he striking at heard
him. il true, talk about liberty the rights Of the
people, y" the Rothschids' the Queen Lords and Com
mons Of England the Attorney for the Corporation
and great many other isolated principles 9TH
ers Cuba and hllbusterism great guns and standing
armies but as to getting at the drift of his remarks
this was impossible for his voice thick and gutcra
and so inaamed by passion that it rolled out mere
volume Of sound, from which nothing but noise be
heard. sorry to say that the House has itself to
blame for the infections Of this morning for time
since, a rule was adopted denying to any member the
right Of speaking than ten minutes upon any
subject and after Mr. Cranes ten minutes had elapsed
Mr.. Ranney called him to order. The House almost
unanimously decided that he have leave go Where
he rolled his sleeves and went to work with
newed vgor, and talked vehemsntly and as much to
the purpose before After another ge of ten minutes
Mr. King, Of st. Landry called him to order again. but
the chair decided that the house having suspended its
rules he had the right to speak long he liked For
tunatey his voice gave way, and after few he
took his seat. AT this late hour the session. when
great deal Of business has yet to be done and when as
have made up their minds to go home in a short time
whether the Legislature adourns 1t alto
gether Of place that of the best rules of the House
should be suspended in order that the rawlings of man
who Is almost maniac should be allowed to consume the
business hours Of the day 1t DONE know only for
the amusement Of those present they were highly
amused-but it would be much more to their credit If
they devoted their time to attending to their business
rather than laughing at the nfrmities of weak man
haau aAa IL.
has lately taken by their satrical compliments
Time enough has been wasted in caucusses and log rolling
and breaking quorums and absences on Monday morn
ngs besides great many other inatentions to the bust
they sent here to attend They have payed
enough-they should 60 to work now
Mr. Sheafes BILL changing the time Of the sessions OF
the Legislature from the third Monday Of January to the
FIRST Tuesday Of April up yesterday and was laid
the table, As this bill is of some Importance to the
city give you the of the delegation who voted
for and against the proposition-laying on the table,
Ysas-Beauregard, Crane, Hawthorne Hiestein SHunt
Nixon Ramos, Warren-S
Nays-Delesderner. Hale, Hiriart, Lambert Marcy.
Ranney, Sheafe, Jennison, Wheat, Wilson-lo
Messrs. Corcoran, McMurdo Herman, Leblanc Lozs
Theard, Warren, Wilder.
If the New0reans delegation had voted for the change
would have been carried In this event the represen
taton would always be stronger than it now is The
o~N~~
holds its sessions during the business season of the
year Hence none but sort of time worn politicians
and and who have nothing else to do
can afford to come here, from NewOrleans There ara
some honorable exceptions to this rule course
Them certainly, Messrs. Hunt, Wheat Wilson, Hirart
Hestein, sheafe, are to be cassed But as whole the
city delegation is the weakest in the House. II the ses
sion was fixed at different time, this would be changed
and delegation sent here worthy represent the COM
mercial city of the South.
The Senatorial question assumes more and more imnor
lance every day Asprants rise with the sun and are
now swarmpg about in every direction Gov Hebert has
said understand that he is in the hands of his
and that they may do with him what they please-whch
they will be apt to do He has the best chance
nearly all the city delegation being in his favor but as
heard one Of the expectants say the who now has
the lead may keep it, while the who is behind NAV
come out ahead 1t will be that Mr. Wickliff will
come up with strong vote and, unless headed by His
Excelency, will get the seat Mr. Miles Taylor is here
working away but think, to little purpose Mr. Sill
dell was looked for this morning with considerable anxi
ETY., but he came not.
The Senate have fixed upon the 2Sh inst as the day
for adjournment, but doubt whether the House will
although there is great deaf of business to
transact CEDRIC.
