great pertinacity, that Sam and Sambo are
one and the same person, or, If separate beings,
that they are the children Of the same parents,

complexion are concerned. After defining his
own position at considerable length, the editor
comes to the following conclusions:
1--WE have, then, the t,oo Msas-rcpublican-
ism and Americanism. Is there any clashing
between them? Not the slightest. They are
brothers; there is no earthly necessity for the
slightest collision They are smart pair of

THE LABoRs OF THE LAST SESSION

THE LABORS OF THE LAST SESSION.
1t is generally conceded that the present
General Assembly embraces more talent than
any which has preceded it for many years
past but it has been u subject Of regret that
most of its members were, at the commencement
OF its labors, unacquanted with each other and
that many among them were without previous
experience in legislative assemblies The facts
that the session opened under circumstances
calculated to produce much personal feeling
owing to the extraordinary number of eontc,
ted seats and that its duration was limited to
sixty days, also prevented tho formation Of
those ties of friendly acquaintance which hap
PLY softcns so greatly the aspcritics ofpoitical
warfare, probably prevented as much good
being done as might otherwise have been the
case. Nevertheless, review of the labors Of
the majority will exhibit most credtable &C.
count on its side.
The awful scenes of lawlessncss, Of violence,
and even Of bloodshed. which accompanied the
November elections in the city, and which de-
stroyed on that occasion the fundamental prin-
eiplcs of free and untrammelled choice, which
underlies the fabric of our representative sys.
TEN, demanded such notice and action as would
not only yindcate that principle and the rights
Of the electors, but convince the blind and I'M
scrupulous partisans by whom those scenes
were enacted or encouraged, that there was at
least some power Of correction which could and
would up hold the rights of the citizens, and
render nugatory all their rufianism and VIC
lence.
The unseating of the three K n Senator,
and several Representative from the city, who
held their seats not by the will of q majority
of the electors, but by the suffrages ola major
ity, sustained by acts utterly subversive of free
dom of election, was an act of political justice
which, notwithstanding the denunciations and
thejeremaids Of those gentlemen and their X
D. friends, must commend itselfto the Judgment
