guaga, asserted, that the House had the
right to prohibit lies and falsehoods from
going on the journal. The protestants lied
and perverted facts. and it was highly prop
er that the House be first convinced that
the protest did not falsify the record. and
moved an investigation.
Mr.. Trumbull who is Republican, but
q very liberal minded man, took issue with,
and utterly COMPOUNDED Wilson. the "dirty
dog" of the House. In using the word
"lies" so often in his remarks the "dirty dog
had special reference to the silvery headed
Clark. Of Dubuque, as he treated the ven
cradle Judge Hail. in the Constitutional
Convention, 30 he treats all old men who
are Democrats, but carefully avoids his in
sulting remarks towards men in vigor Of
life, who would be likely to chastise his i'm
pudence. But enough Of this old-man-in-
sulting "dirty dog"
A joint resolution has been adopted, re-
questing the codifying commission to re-
port to the legislature the results of their
labors by the 10th inst.
Legislation proceeds rapidly now. and the
number OF bills which have been reported

days, is astonishing to any enc who has not

From this time until the adjournment,
bills will be put through with great rapidi-
ty, but they will be Of special and unim-
portant nature, generally. the School bill
will be ground out shortly and the Bank
ing bills probably during the week. The
Judicial system is still unprotected, and the
County Administrative system about where
it started. To tell what has been done. and

tive districts, was appointed on Saturday.
By come unaccountably fine mar euvering
on the part Of Lincoln Clark, the Committee
stood Democratic by one majority, which
being discovered after the Senate had ap-

the State so apportioned as that there would
be no resurrection to Democracy. The
House added another another to the Com
mittee, and sent the resolution to the Sem
ate, which added another Hottentot, and
gave the Blacks majority Of one. The
Democrats expected no advantage from the
first standing of the Committee, but it af-
forded no little amusement to them to see
the position in which their opponents were
placed. 1t was very jolly time they made
of it. and it is only enc Of series Of diff.
culties which the sharps practice, and which
the minority has got the majority into, and
many very undemocratic measures have
been rendered odious to their authors by
the same means
Mr.. Rusch has advocated from the FIRST
the right Of the negro to 60 to the same
school with the white child. He thinks if
there is a prejudice against the negro, the
law should prevent its working to his pre-
JUDGE. This matter is to be settled by .

admit negroes, even if it sends white chill
