ADJUCRN ! ADJOURN From present
indication 5, our sapleDt but unfortunate
law makers at Columbus. will put in tho
winter at their Juhghtful occupation of
Spending the peoples money. They are
SGT of arrdut humbUgs as ever got four dol
lars "a day. They c,yuld have finished all
thor business in two weeks, and el0sed the
extra session before now, to the entIre sat-
stactIOn of their constituents. We havo .!!o
doubt many things III tho laws Of tho State
could DO improved; but the people could
get alONg very wuli without any Oi tho pYOe
posed ruvisIUns-aud from tho apparent
want of discretion in tho legislative body,
tins winter. at Columbus, VIZ doubt tbuir
ability To benefit tho people il they would
live at the capital an entire year. Their re-
tusal to comply with tho expressed wishes
! OF tho masses that they should bold short
session shows that they do not care much
! tor the interest of those they represent.
I'VE prupnse that Iitho Legislature have
not adjourned by the first OF February the
democratic editors of tho State go down to
Columbus aud each Ouo bring one or two of
|
uers legislative from tho body legislative,
aud save tho Democracy of tho State at tho
expense of the hotels and drinking saloons
of Columbus. We hope our brethren of
the press will speak out, aud speak the sem
tinents OF the pc"plo against protiaction of
/ this extra sussIOn.
Following the reading of the communica-
ton with IA proper resolution of censure.-
| When MIR, AmbIer of Culumbiana. also roso
! tOa question of privilege, rcading from u
subsequent number of tho same paper, an
other article III which tho editor after call
! ing attention to tho tactthat " tho very men
now catOusing i'll CU.umbus at the expense
ut every body else, and themselves TOO, gOe
| their nomination and election in direct aud
solemn promises to hold but one session,
and that an extremely short one, that they
broke thor promise by ahjnuruing from last
winter to this. aud they are now violating
every principle of honesty and good sense"
gncs on TO say, Individually we make all
lowanco Tor them they live we'll, aud get
cash for their work, and get their speeches
/ printed, aud tIck!e each other with tho idea
OF beIug sharp--and strOug-and clear
and mighty good speakurs-and promising
mid Ilsng-and all that nonsense. lt
may be II good thing for the representative
to hold on at CouIubus, but We tell them it
won't suit tie people at home. They can't
tool tho poopo into tho belief that their
work viii ue worth what they charge for it.
But having this Legislature fairly nstrido
. Democracy, wo have no more idea that they
will hold short session, than that "a beggar
will take II short ride on horseback. They
say no will ride to the d, and We be-
Iirve tho legislature intend riding the Dem
ocrauc parry after the boggar. Thoy must
know tho great wrong they are doing tho
party. the monstrous lie they arc acting out,
! aud we can account for their conduct only
. on the ground that they aro.inatuatcd with
S their present position, aud never expect TO
get another. Amen" Mr.. Amblcr follow
L ed with Il resolution that tho Sergeant at
5 Arms be instructed 10 expeI this editor from
tho State. During the reading, the express
sion upon tho phiz Uf Gibson, and other
IN, mbcrs of tho party, was somewhat anus
r ing. and az the close Boss" Andrews, and
half dozen other gentlemen, were upon
: their feet, but as the Speaker oyerruled the
D question, and proceeded to tho morning
e business tho disturbed waters soon fell to
their accustomed channel. and all was again
!. peace. Tho House passed through the
2 morning business, AMI after spending some
time in Committee ot tho Whole, rose aud
adjourned. i.
