ALBANY, March 8, 1858.
The farce enacted in the Assembly chamber sstur
day afternoon and evening gives credit 10 any Of those
who took conspicuous characters therein. In the first
place r. Duryea was too preciptant il overbearng
in demanding the previous question upon his sutLecomp
ton resolutions Declaring he did with air Of tr

port, that he could carry through his resolutions did
not become him as fair legislator to press the question
at that time without allowing the minority opportunity
OF placing counter resolutions record that both
might 60 Gown To posterity The minority should have
known that 1t useless to undertake kill time by
senseless and useless haangues because the majority
possess equal physical strengtho endure proraed

speeches by going out and repenshing the inner man.
The experience Of Laning, Chsner aud Jones may be
lesson for them hereafter Duryea stands the
cognzed republican leader Of the House.
Why do the republicans oppose the privilege of aliens
TO hold real estates There hundreds Of acts passed
dual Senator Mather order to be relieved from
such special enactmens, introduced bill allowing all
aliens TO hold possess purchase sell and mortgage real
estate. We understand his bill has long been in the
hands OF the Judiciary Committee Of the Senate who do
not seemdisposed to make report upon 1t Indeed,
than intmsted that the majority that commit
tee, being republicans are opposed to the measure Per
baps they will report the bin for the reconsideration OF
the Senate" not desiring formally to reject it,
In justice 10 the Honorable Mr. Seeey, Of the House,
is proper to state that the bill he introduced dssovng

BROOKLYN but to Juoge Russes court of New York We
make the correction the gentleman himself publicly
requested 1t this morning on the floor OF the House The
correction would have been as readily MADE, had he
made private request What the difficulty with the

from the Kansas Committee how the proceeds have been
