The Legislature.

The extra session of our State legisla-
ture adjournsd on Tuesday of last week.
The Senate Bill calling a Convention on
the 18th January, and appointing the 9th
of the same month rs the day Of election
for delegates, was changed in the House.
making the day of election on the 9th of
December aud the Convention to assemble
on the 18th of the same month. In this
shape it was returned to the Senate and
passed by that body without oppostion.-
An abstract of the debate in the House
when this Bill was up for consideration may
be found on our first page. The unanimi,y
with which the Bill passed both Houses is
unparalleled lin the Legislative history of
this or any other State. That so impor
tant II matter should be without n dissent
ing voire in either House, leaves no room
tn doubt the unity os scptiment which pre-.
vailed among the members Of the Legisla-
tpre, ami in this act of promptly calling
Convention, they have but given expression
to the united voice Of tho State
The Bill in respect TO the Banks also
passed both houses the provisions of this
Bill may be found among the proceedings
on our first page. Its friends urged its
passage on the ground that it would relieve
the extreme tigh,ucss of the money market:
that the Banks, after the remission of the
penalty for suspension involved in the Act
Of lS4O, would not hesitate to let out their
bills and the wants Of the country would
be thereby supplied.
! The B;li for arming the State was recon.
mittcd to the Military Committee, with in
| structious that the Committee sit during
the recess and report at the regular session
plan for putting the State in u condition
! TO defend herself. The Governor, in the
mean time, is authorized by resolutions of
the General Assembly to accept the scrvi-
ces of ten thousand volunteers for the de.
fence and protection Of the State. The
resolutions may be fouud on our iirst page
