proceedings Of their Legislature with extreme anxiety.
They regard the issuing Of large amounts Of paper cur
reney, under the profession Of relief TO planters, and the
disposition to tamper with the laws that govern COM
meree as likely to lead to the most deplorable eonse-
quenees One Of the propositions now under eonsidera-
ton Of the Legislature is a stay law. Though u~napplied
for By public meeting or petition, the lower House has
passed the measure. The New Orleans Crescent says
Of it:

and Unjust legislation, and maintain the honor and faith

would have consented to Reputation. Let ms profit by
the unfortunate example thus set--n0t initiate it.
The same paper remarks as follows respecting the cot
