After the reading Of the Governors or.

mouse remaining IN session, the Senate re-
assembled, Dir. Underwood in the chair

The Democratic State Committee have
sued a handful notifying the people that
he soldiers relief bill has been defeated
BY the action Of the Governor, and CALM
or grand subscription in money from the
mass meeting here on the Eth. II is thus
hoped that the OF ject 50 bitterly opposed
by the Governor, aud his allies in the Leg
stature, may yet be realized in spite Of

The same members, while utterly denv.
ng the right of the Governor to adjourn or
'rorogue the Assembly, find themselves
'oWeriess to enact needful legislation, the
epublicans having left them Without
uorum They accordingly retired from

lie 2f the State will fix the responsibility
Or this miserable partiEan juggiery where
justly belongs.
