MAJOR ANDERSON ENDORSED.

The noble Anderson is receiving the
spontaneous praises of his countrymen in
almost every portion of the Union. Public
meetings have endorsed his gallant conduct
at Fort Moultrie, in most Of the Northern
cities And we are glad to record the fact
that our Legislature, now in cession at
Lawrence, have passed joint resolution en-
dOrsing him, with only one dissenting vote
in the Council and five in the Lower House.
The following ia the resolution referred to,
which was offered by Mr.. Elder, Council
man from Franklin county:
Resolved, BY the Legislative Assembly
of the Territory of Kansas, that we freely
endorse the movements of Major Anderson
and patriotic, and his timely actions, on his
world that he is man equal TO the crisis,
tary skill and ability.
The resolution called forth considerable
discussion, and several attempts were made
to cucumber it with amendments, but it final
~ passed as offered by Mr.. Elder. In the
Council the resolution was eloquenuy sup
ported by Messrs. Price, Benton, Keller,
and Hendry. Mr.. Matthias opposed it. and
WAS the only one who voted against it i'll
the Council. The House of Representatives
was occupied almost a whole day in its dis
cussion. Many excellent speeches were
made, The leading one of which was deliv-
cred by Mr.. Bailey. of Leavenworth. His
speech is spoken of by all in the highest
terms He was enthusiastically cheered by
the crowded lobby. On the other side, the
speeches that attracted the most attention
were made BY Messrs. Miller. Of Lykins,
and Perry. of Leavenworth. The resolu-
ton passed the House by large majority
those voting against it all being Democrats.
Their names are Perry, Humber, Fairchild,
Reynolds and Miller. They should be re-
membered by the people of their respect
i've counties. Men who refuse to pass a
simple resolution endorsing the patriotism
of such men as Major Anderson. should be
remembered

LEGISLATIVE CORRESPONDENCE.
LAwRENcE, Jan. Is, 1861.

LAWRENCE, Jan. ! ., 1861.
DEAR News Il have not much Legisla
tive news to communicate this time. The
Legislature las just fairly got to work. In
the Council some twenty bills have been
introduced. The most important of which is
a bill, introduced BE- Hon. Chester Thomas,
to Organize. equip and enroll the Militia
of the Territory" Out of the number,
seven are divorce bills. The rapidity with
which divorce bills have formerly been
rushed through the Legislature of Kansas,
has gone abroad, and understand there
are already persons here from the Eastern
States for the purpose of getting the "sil-
ken tie'' broken. apprehend. though.
there will be more difficulty Than formerly
in getting divorces.
The MEASURE occupying the largest share
of attention IN both Houses of the Assem-
bly,. for the last two days. was the resolu-
ton endorsing the noble and gallant Ander-
son, at Fort Mouitrie. In both branches
come eloquent and patriotic speeches were
made. There is more brains in the present
Legislature than in any former one. Some
of the older countries might well be proud
of such Senate and house of Representa-
lives. The contested seats in the Lower
House, have also been a fruitful theme for
speech making. e:c., but they have not yet
been decided.
Both, the members of the. Legislature
