The Legislature.

The great length of the Senates proceedings on
Saturday has excluded from our columns the regu-
lar proceedings of the two houses on Monday.
Our Reporter has given sketch Of the Senate
proceedings on Saturday in relation to the appoint
ment Of Justices of the Peace; and our readers will
be enabled to form some idea therefroln of the
traordinary course and bearing of Mr.. Turner, the
Senator from Orange, on that occasion. 1t is only
necessary to say now, as we d. that Mr.. Turner'S
course is considered by many even of his own party
as exceedingly improper, and such as his intelligent
and law-abiding constituents cannot approve. We
say Mr. Turner, for it apparent that the two or
three other Senators who cooperated with him were
but secondary and inferior actors in the unusual and
highly censurable scene which he occasioned and
prolonged in that dignifed body.
In the Senate, on Monday, the appointment of
Justices was resumed, and the entire day was con-
sumed in this business
The House of Commons was engaged the grea-
ter part of Monday the bill to charter the Green's
borough and Danville Railroad Company Gov.
Morehead spoke in favor of the measure and was
followed by Mr. Bridgers in reply and in opposition
to the measure. Mr.. Caldwell was speaking in re-
ply to Mr.. Bridgers when the hour of adjournment
arrived

A WoxAN's SYMPATHY. The Editor Of the New

about the ravages of the yellow fever in that CITY, re-
lated to him by one Of the Methodist pastors: The
preacher was called few days since to attend the
funeral of = young man. Before his sickness, he
was stout bouyant manly youth He was from
the State Of Maine, and had been here but short
time He was attacked with yellow fever, and soon
died, with no mother or relative to.watch by his.
bedside, or to soothe him with that sympathy which
none but those of our own dear kindred blood can
feel or manifest He died among strangers, and was
buried by them. When the funeral service was
over and the strange friends who bad ministered to
him were abont to finally close the cpn 40 old lady
who stood by, stopped them and said Let me kiss
him for his motherp We have yet to find the 6rst

The REVENUE BILL-The Revenue bill has been
prepared BY the Committee, presented to the Com
MONS and is now in the hands of the State printer
1t is from the pen Of the able and laborious Chair
man of the Finance Committee, Mr. Fries, and was
drawn up of course in accordance with the views of
the majority.
We have not had time to examine its provisions
carefully but we observe that the bill proposes
land twenty cents the hundred dollars value, and
eighty cents the poll. 1t is estimated that the
bill will add about hundred and fifty thousand
dollars to the public revenue.
Every patriot is called upon to vote for revenue to
meet the States liabilities and to carry the gov
eminent. We have no doubt that the amplest
means will be provided for these purposes

1t is very easy to explain why it is they underworld
us. We have got plenty of ore, plenty of COAL
We have advantages in that respect; but labor is
cheaper with them. According to the statements
which the iron conventions have sent us from time
to time they say that nine tenths of the cost Of
making iron is labor: that there is only about one
tenth in the value Of the materials used If that be
the case, we never can work on as cheap. terms as
they do unless put down the price of labor, and
nobody is in favor Of that We have to give in this
country about dollar day for the same labor that
they would get for, perhaps twenty five cents aday,
and of course they will continue to underworld us.
This question presents ITSELF shall we avail ourselves
of these cheap rails to make our roads, that benefit
the whole country and get our produce to market,
or shall we refuse to do it? Would it be reasonable
in the people of Great Britain torefuse to take Our
cotton at ten cents pound, and try to get cotton
elsewhere at twenty cents, in small quantities -
Nobody will pretend that it would be, Why shall
we not make use of this wisdom? As to the idea Of
whist is ran material and what is not there is moth
ing in the world in it Coal is raw material and 50
is iron ore b the maker of pig metal and then pig
metal Is raw material 10 the maker of bar iron, and
bar iron Is raw material to the blacksmith who
wants to work it up, and the plows and hoes he
makes the farmer might consider his raw material
instruments to work out his crop--things that
are used by him in getting the crop and the rails
are = part Of the raw material that the railroad
makers make use Of In constructing railroads
think, therefore, there Is no reas0n upon earth for
any such distinction. - Z ss7sse
