the education of the Penobscot Indians.
Passed TO be enaeted-Blll to incorporate

to authorize Timothy Lane to erect free
bridge over tide water from Lanes Island to
Vinalhaven.
Finally passed-Resolve IN favor of the
Pasmaquoddy Indians.
Mr.. Wing called up the bill relating to
the specifications of grounds of defencc-the
question being on indefinite postponement.
Nj. Totman opposed the motion and adyo-
Gated the bill.
Mr.. Marshall said that inasmuch as there
was difference of opinion among the law
yers AZ to the beneficial operation of the
law relating to specifications in acti ms, it
was incumbent on those seeking repeal of
the law to make out a clear case that it
should be repealed. The Judges are general
in favor of the law; and many lawyers think
it tends to facilitate business, by -idding the
docket OF actions to which there is no sub
stantial defence; while Others insist it tends
to the delay of business, and to put money
into the pockets Of the lawyers.
Mr.. Fletcher contendcd that the law had
not had the effect antcipatcd-t the dock
cts of our Courts were never So crowded with
actions as now.
The Senate then concurred with the House
in indefinitely poastponing the bill.
