The Appearances tonight certainly are that tbe
Legislature will adjourn after all without doing
anything Whatever il regard to the mlitia-the
very thing which every body supposed, at the be-
ginning Of the Session, would be its most impor-
| tant business. and that not because they have
calmly and deliberately come the conclusion that
/ it is J,st nothing should be done but as it seems
at least, mainly because Of misunderstanding if
not pique aud jealousy between those who have
| had tie management of the mater in both Houses
| The difficulty OF which I spoke last evening in
regard to getting the House bill before the SEN
ate, it being contrary to joint rule to transmit
any bill from one House to the other for concur
renee during the last tao days of the Session. has
indeed been got over at last and only this after
noon, by both Houses. agreeing u suspend that
rule one hour Under that suspen ion Of course
the militia and sono other unimportant bill.
went IN. But neither militia bill has been under
consideration at all to-day, nor has there been in
either House any disposition whatever to take
them W. The Senate have passed one bill and
sent IL to the House. The House have passed
another ard sent it to the Senate. And there the
matter stands. Neither House have done any,
thing with tie others BILL and it is impossible,
7ou, that they should take any Cctiop at all in.
