LEG1shA1tRs'
The Legislature, afler adtourning to accom-
modate the Democratic Convention, was
promptly 1t work again yesterday, and good
deal Of business was done. Most Of this, how
ever, was Of local Importance, and docs not de-

One bill, upon which the Senate spent a large
part Of thctday, is Of more general Importance
1t was bill for the encouragement Of The wool
growing interest Of the State. This interest
might Be made VERY important one. Our soil
ausi climate are well adapted to this form OF
husbandry, and the wealth Of the State might
be easily and largely increased by the raising of
sheen for wool and for tue market, But hith.
