MISCELLAN EOUS.
Legislative Gossip.

No adjournment will probably be made until
after the 1 h OF March, unless in the meantime
the vacancy in the bench of the Supreme Court
OF the United States is filled; though some of
Nc. Bayard's friends are very anxious to do so.
Dir. Chandler has reported an amendment to
Cha pter Ill Of the Revised Statutes, SO as to
prevent the arrest of any person for debt whe-
iher resident OF non resident of the State,
where there is no fraud sworn 10, or alleged.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Clements, calling
Convention, will not pass, this being no time
to tinker at State Constitutions, when the Fa.
ther Of Constitutions is in danger.
The Senate has been indefinitely postponing
the numerous divsrce bills that have passed the
House. Although the House has taken the
position, and very justly, that there are cases
where legislative divorce ought to be grant
ed, yet the Senate seems to think otherwise,
aud has killed every bill of he kind that has
been sent 10 them.
Another scheme now On the carpet is design
ed 10 strengthen the negro interest in this
State. II is to repeal the humane law of our
fathers against selling slaves out of the State.
Mr.. Phillips, at the suggestion of Charley Gull

should Wood, Eddy g. Co. fail to procure ano.

ARE We NOT A CHRISTIAN PEOPLE ?-The
Gospel has been preached all over the State
of Delaware for more than hundred years, and
in this year of Our Lord, 1861, petitions have
been sent in to our Legislature now in session,
asking the passage Of a law to prohibit negro
men holding real estate! We would also like
to know what those petitioners would have
the Legislature do with those negroes who
have been frugal and industrious enough al
ready to own farms, houses, lots.&cl Do they
desire this property to be taken away from the
negroes. who have bought and paid for it, and
have it given over to the petitioners! Would
il not be well, also, 10 ask the honorable Leg
islature to enact that whenever any negro is
suspected ofhaving dollar in his possession
it shall be lawful for any white man to seize
and search him, and if money be found in bis
possession to take it away and appropriate i

Despite the efforts Of good men at Dover,
says correspondent of the journal, I am
firmly persuaded that lottery bill of some
kind will pass the Legislature. The taste for
"public improvement" as it is called will
create such pressure upon the members be-
low. that they will eventually yield, and thus
fasten anothe Lottery concern upon the State.
All we can do all that moral men anywhere
can do to avert the evil, will be TO hope and
fight until the outrageous system and it's mi.
quitous mischief shall be made SO manifest to
the people at large, that they will rise at last
aud Danish the infamy from the State.
