The General Assem- bly,.

This body assemblies next Monday at the
CapitOI in this city. We note that u number
OF the members have already arrived, and We
presume by to morrow evening majority of
both branches will be here. The session will
be an important one in many respects. The
first that has assembled since the adoption of
the Permanent Constitution of the COnfede-
rate States, upon it viii oevolve the duty of
altering and amending our laws so as to con-
form to the condition of our political and
records Of connection with the United States
and to start the State Government upon
the new path which has been chosen for our
people. New appOriionments. Congressional
and State legislative, are also to be made,
Senators to be chosen, and other important
elections made We doubt not the members
will come together in the most liberal and
patriotic spirit, and endeavOr TO discharge
the high trusts committed to their keeping,
with an eye single to the good OF the people,
and the advancement Of The interests of the
country. The times are such as call for the
exercise of the utmost care and elaboration
in the enactment of laws. and of frugality in
the expenditure of the treasure of the State,
upon which heavy drafts have been made
within the past six months, but We feel that
the representatives of the people are alive to
the occasion and to their duties; and will not
be remiss.
