Mr.. OKcan, from the committee on asr-
culture. reported back the bill to encourage
the formation OF agricultural societies, which
was ordered to be eng glossed. 1t appropr.
ates $50 to every county society raising q
like sum.
Mr. Cook, from the judiciary committee,
reported back the bill to enable the board Vi
Supervisors Of Gruudy county to sell the
Swamp lands of that county. Read third
time and passed.
| The bill to extend the term Of Office OF
county Treasurers to four years was laid on
/ the table.
So the bill to allow attorneys at law in
Wisconsin to practice in the courts OF this
| State.
The rcso ution of Mr.. Sutphin, instructng
our Senators in Congress to vote against any
repeal or alteration OF the natura izatio, laws,
was taken up, and excited lengthy but de.
su,tory discussion Mr.. Judd and others
desired 10 couple with it censure of Judge
| Douglas and Gen. Jas. Shields for their vote
| in favor Of the Ncgraska bill containing the
Clayton amendment The democrats re.
sisted this on the ground Of its gross and
palpabe injustice. Finally, on motion OF
Mr.. Palmer. the resolution was licked into
the following shake
I That the vote Of our Senators in Congress,
cmbodying the amendment of Senator Clay
7 ton, in favor of the Kansas Nebraska bill,
whereby persons of foreign birth were pro-
hibted all share in the government OF the
territories. either as voter. or oflice.holders,
meets with our unqualified disspprcbation.
And in this shape it was made the order OF
1 the day for two o'clock, to which hour the
Senate adjourned,
! In the afternoon, the consideration OF Mr..
Sutphin's resolutions was resumed. Mr.
Morrison made long, well considered, and
very able speech in favor Of the original re-
solutions as offered The speech was dc.

charges of the Know Nothings, and abound
ed in historical lore and illustrations, lie
wound up by dcnouncing Know Nothlngsnl
as the ally of slavery, and the opposite OF
progrcss and the liberal tendencies Of the
age. =,
Mr.. Palmer made a good speech on tho
same side sf the question, but dissenting
from many Of Mr.. Morrison's positions.
Mr.. Cook followed, dcprccating the anti
republican tendencies Of secret political nsso'
Citations, and maintaining the injustice OF
prescribing men on account of their religion
or the accident of birth. The points Of the
speech w,rc well put and ably maintained
A full report of the speech is in preparation
and will be published
The question was finally taken on the or

MONDAY, Jan. u.s.
,Se,.ate-The special order for this after.
noon was the bin to repeal the usury laws,
but us number Of Senator's were absent, it
was by common consent passed over for the
present.
a little "poetry bll'' from the House, al.
lowin. the members to draw $50 each, was
taken up and passed instanter.
A bill was passed to establish court Of
common pleas in the city Of Cairo.
The House bill, to Suspend" all laws now
in force granting licenses to sell spirituous
liquors, coming up in its order, an effort was
made to pass it over until the Senate should
be fu.l, but it was passed to vote, when the
bill was lost, but 10 votes being in its favor
to againstt Mr.. Palmer, however, wlo
s in favor of,he bill, voted against it to be
able TO move a reconsideration, which he
gave notice he should do.
The balance of the days session was taken
up in the presentation and reference of bills
Of a purely local character.
Hou@-As many members were still ab-
sent, and the House had barely quorum,
little business except ofa local and unoLjcc-
tionable character was taken up. The use
ofthe Hall of the House WAS very ungal-
lantly denied to Mrs. Fonda, who proposed
to lecture the members on the Maine law.
She had taken occasion on Sunday evening
to give them scoring in one OF the church,
cs in the city, and they resented 1t by this
uncourteous denial.
Mr.. Logan introduced n resolution Of in.
ouiry, directed to the Governor, as to what
was the present disposition Of some $780,.
900 which it appeared on the Auditors re.
port had been drawn on his order and were
yet unaccounted for whether this money
was in the hnn 8 Of Wadsworth d Sheldon,
or if not, in whose hands II was; or whether
| it had been invested in State bonds,
A similar inquiry has been directed to the
Governor by the Senate, and it is understood
his answer will be sent in in the morning.
The bulk Of the money in question has been
invested in bonds Of our State, and what.
ever balance may remain in the hands ol
Wadsworth 4 Sheldon is abnndantly Sc
cured.
Tho Joint resolution to fix the time to 60
into the election Of L. S. Senator, as amend.
cd by the Senate, was taken up. and the
Senate amendment, fixing the 3lst instead
of the 18th inst, as the day, was unexpect.
edly concurred in without opposition. The
fact indicates that the fusion forces are as
little ready to 90 into the fight as their op'
poncnts seem to be.
The bill to incorporate the Buel Instituts
was taken up and passed.
The bill to preserve wild game in Illinois
was then tnken up, and an amendment Of
fcred, to allow each person TO kill or entray
game on his own premises at any time, pond
