The Jefferson Inquirer of the lth says
in relation to the passage Of the bill:
"Never before have we witnessed so
much excitemsnt and interest manifested
upon the passage of any law before the
General Assembly of this State, As soon
as it was ascertained the bill had passed, it
was impossible for the Speaker to preserve
order, and the applause which followed the
announcement Of the passage of the bill,
was evidence Of the great interest manifest
ed in its success, by those supporting it,
We oo, upon it as the most important mca-
sure ever passed by the General Assembly
of this State, for it secures the completion
og he Improvements so wisely commenced
by former Legislature. We feel assured
several members Of both Houses voted
against the bill reluctantly, because they are
internal improvement men, but the provis-
ions of the bill were such as they could not
vote for it,"
