SAcKAMENTo, March -, 1855.
EpIToRs CoURIER:-The Legislature is work
ing with WILL and seems in fair way to ad-
iourn at an early day.
A resolution to preclude the introduction OF
any new business other than what may come in
the way of messages from the Departments or
Seuate. was, to-day, passed by the Assembly.
Another resolution, fixing the 9th proximo for
sine die adjournment Of the Legislature, was in
troduced and temporarily laid on the table on
account of many being absent.
The bill providing for funding the State debts,
qecruing from the first day of July, SO. to the
first day OF July. '55, passed the Senate to-day.
The bill may not suit every one. but is consi-
de Ell, upon the whole, good BILL The bill
making an appropriation to defray the expenses
of special agent 10 take the vouchers of the
Indian war debt" TO Washington, was indefi-
nitely roy poned few days ago. The bill for
the re-dislricling part Of this State came up on
Friday last, whereupon " the gentleman from
Siskiyom" took occasion to give the gentleman
from Colnsi'' a very genteel drnbbing for his au-
dacity in offering an amendment to his (Cur-
Ftiss) bill.
The amendment proposed to avoid the neces-
silly of new district. and TO show that it was an
Inlq1ItOus nmendment, IT is only necessary to
obs-r, that it was lost by large majority.
he Hospital Committee made a report on
Saturday, which shows singular facts IN
reference to the Slate Marine Hospital. If that
report is correct and it proba bly, is the manage
ment OF that institution isa disgrace to those
connected with il. a disgrace to the State, and
a disgrace to humanity. The report shows that
The institution is morally. relieiousy and politl-
cally. mass of corruption. Bnt the report is
10 be printed, and the public will have chance
10 form lis own opinion.
1t aresolution of similar import TO the one
hat passed the House to-day, should pass the
SENATE, the Senatorial question will have It's
luictus for this session.
The recent Know Nothing developments in
'Le Charter Election OF the City of Macy syille
rs well as those connected with the election OF
Seward to the U. S. Senate from New York, has
caused many nltra members OF the different Sec
mons OF the Democratic party to secede slightly
from the position hitherto occupied.
1t is generally believed that the Democratic
party is the only power in this State to check the
dangerous progress OF Know kolhingism.
The Democratic party can and will unite or
suffer disastrous defeat.
If the two Central Committees will meet soon.
aud establish some rule by which unity of ac-
non can be secured. and issue address to the
people of this State before the counties have
commenced their organizations and before the
country papers have taken partzan stands. a
unity of action will most assuredly follow which
will insure another Democratic triumph in This
States it not. the party, party, will meet
certain defeat.
above referred to should be made soon. there is
yet possibility for the ELECTION Of U. 8. Sem
ator at this session.
The rain is falling-the river is rising-State
Scrip is looking up. and banks are below par.
Respectfully, KARL.
