even with the large Republican majority in
this body. Its consideration would be a
waste of time which should be devoted to
more important and legitimate business.

siness was transacted, the House proceeded

ness shall be at the rate of seven dollars for one
hundred dollars for a year, unless different

of interest over twelve per cent, and all agree.

AFTERNOON SESSION.
Mr.. WILKINS spoke with earnestness
and force against the passage of the bill.
He referred to the waste OF time by the
Legislature, in considering this measure,
which did not properly come under its ju
risdiction. He was prepared to leave the
whole matter to the discretion of the execu-
tive, who had the power to commute. He
believed the law should be administered
with equality; and that every guilty per-
son, whether rich Or poor, male OR female,
should be punished.
Mr.. ROBERTSON characterized the
bill as an assumption by the Legislature of
powers conferred upon the Governor. The
Governor, the speaker was informed, had
not even been asked to commute Mrs.
Bilansky's punishment from death to impris.
onment for life. Neither had the Legislature.
1t appeared evident to him (Col. r. that
in discussing this measure, the members
wanted to demonstrate that the Legislature
OF the State did not rise in calibre above a
country village school boy lyceum; and
they had succeeded.

CONTESTED SEATS.
Col. ROBERTSON presented the petit
ton of Messrs. Waldhier, Barton, Flani gan,
and Newell, the members from Dakota
county, recently elected from the House by
the Republican majority. The petition set
forth that under the rule laid down by the
House, in ejectng the persons named, an
investigation would show that all the sitting
members from that county, except Mr..
Sheaffer, held their seats illegally.
An attempt being made to prevent the
petition being read,
Col. ROBERTSON said, that if the
House now acted on the rule fixed, 10 expel-
ling Mr.. Barton and his associates from the
House, it would be compelled to declare the
seats of the members from Dakota vacant,
except Mr.. Sheaffer's. The ground on which
the Democrats were expelled, was because

Dakota county were rot sworn, and the
returns regularly made. Now, if this rule
established by the House in the case Of
Democratic members was carried out, four
Republican members would be ousted from
their seats. Unless one rule was made
by the majority for political friends, and
another for political opponents, the petition
should receive respectful consideration.
The petition was referred to the Commit
tee on Elections
BILLS PASSED.

ment of the House. Sufficient time ought
to be allowed to have the law published.

FnEDER1cKroS, August 4.-To-day has
been the most delightful yet experienced
by the Prince since his arrival. The bout
ran up the St. Johns river, through the
most beautiful scenery and with fertile
country on either side. There were grouns
of people in boats, on the wharrcs and on
every projection, and even in the Church
steeples, who displayed flags with royal
notices, rang bells, fired muskcts and
chcercd. The Prince directed the cheers
to hc answered by the steam whistle and
by the band. The Prince lunched on
board, with the Governor and suite, Gen.
TTaIlopf and suite aud several members of
tho government, legislature and council
and the Mayors of Halifax, Boston and
Montreal. He arrived at Fredericton, at
8 P. NJ, amid salute of guns. The
Prince aud his suite in uniform, drove in
carriages to the government house, and
the members of the legislature followed in
procession. The Prince will spend a quiet
day on Sunday and on Monday he will re-
ceive an address, and II lcvce and a ball
will be given ut the Parliament buildings.
The town is decorated with 5000 arches
and with flags in all the windows and on
all the telegraph poles. More addresses
are being presented to the Prince than
were expected. If such an avalanche con-
tinucs, collective replies will have 10 be

RBTHE RIvER.-Thc river was falling
yesterday with three and half feet water
in the channel. The packets continue to
make regular trips, though they will have
to stop again soon, if the river continues

Capt. j. B. Archer, of the Louisville and
Memphis packet Southerner, is at the

Log" and was 81 serious obstruction to
