Relief for the La Crosse Farm Mortsagors.

The Judiciary Committee of the Assembly,
by their chairman, Mr.. Webb, submitted an
unanimous report last Wednesday, upon the
numerous petitions for the relief received
from Farm MOrtgagors along the line of the
La Crosse Railroad, accompanied by a bill
for carrying into effect the plan recommend
ed in their report. The report is as follows:
Your committee are not unmindful of the
fact, that the Legislature has frequently en-
deavored to provide some mode of relief for
that unfortunate class of our fellow citizens
known as EARN Mortgagors," and that it has
as frequently failed. And while we are fully
aware that they are many things which the
Legislature cannot do, and that the power
and authority to determine the constitution
alty of legislative enactments Is properly
vested in the Supreme Court, we are never
theless of the opinion that the constitutional
provision, that " all general laws or special
acts" under their corporations are formed
"may be altered OF repealed by the legisla-
ture at any time after their passage" fully
empowers the legislature to impose.upon rail
road corporations the obligation to act Justly
toward the public, and especially toward
those whose money built their roads as a
condition upon which they shall continue to
their. franchises.
Among other matters set forth in the petit
tiOns aforesaid, the memerialists represent
that . the several lines Of railroads, with roll
ingstock and real and personal property con-
nected and used Herewith, formerly known
as the La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad have
come into the possession of the present own
ers and managers thereof, at a cost including
all legal membranes thereon, of many mil
lions of dollars less than the actual value
thereof" and they claim that the present
companies owning and controlling said road
in equity bound to fulfill the obligations
which the original company bound themselves
to perform. Fully concurring in this view of
the case, we have concluded to report bill
to provide Sinking Fund for paying certain
debts of the La Crosse and Milwaukee Rail
road Company, and herewith submit bill
for that purpose, and recommend the passage
thereof

Political NoMENCLATURE.-The Republican
members of the Minnesota Legislature and
many citizens united in signing petitions re-
Gently to the Republican State Committee
asking them to change the designation of the
convention called to elect delegates to the
National Nominating Convention from Gre
publican Union" to "Union," and to omit in
their call, the words " who are opposed 10 tire
g existing Democratic party" The commit
tee after due consideration refused to make
the changes in question. The St. Paul Press
approves their action, and thinks the state
convention may ''hesitate long, even in the
face of the most cogent reasons of expediency,
to erase from the folds Of the party banner
the glorious name with which all the strug-
giles and triumphs of the party of Freedom
and the Union are indissolubly associated
The Republican State Convention of Iowa,
held at Des Moines on the 22d, adopted a res
olution recommending the National Conven-
ton to adopt the name of the Republican I'm
ion party This resolution was supported by
several war Democrats, and only opposed by
an old-time abolitionist.

CURE FOR WEAK EYEs.-An elderly gentle
man, accustomed to indulge" entered the
room of a certain inn, where sat grave
friend by the fire. Lifting a pair of green
spectacles upon his forehead, rubbing his in
famed eyes, and calling for hot brandy
and water, he complained that His eyes
were getting weaker and weaker, and that
even spectacles didn't seem to do them any
good" "I'll tell thee, friend" replied the
Quaker, "what think. If thee was to wear
thy spectacles over thy mouth for few
months, thy eyes would get round again"

DISCoNTINUANCE OF THE CoNFIsC ALTON SUITS.
A letter is published from Assistant Attor-
neyGeneral Coffey to the United States Dis
trict Attorney, giving instructions with refer
ence to the Presidents amnesty proclamation.
1t appears from this that the confscatiou bill
Is nullifed by the amnesty, so far as the reb-
els accept it. There is, therefore, no case of
judicial proceedings to enforce the penalties
of acts ofrebellion, which cannot be reached
and cured by the constitutional or statutory
power of the President to grant pardon and
amnesty, whether the proceeding be against
the person of the offender by criminal ndict-
r,ient, against his property, under the con-
iscation act referred to. Gen. c. continues:
The President has accordingly directed me
to instruct you that in any case where pro-
ceedings have been commenced and are
pending and undetermined in the District or
Circuit Courts of the United States for your
district, against person charged with acts of
rebellion, and not of the excepted class
whether they be by indie ment or seizure and
libel of his property ar confscation, the
rights of other parties not having interviewed.
you VIII discontinue and put end to those
proceedings, whenever the person so charged
shall produce evidence satisfactory 10 YOU
that he has, in good faith, taken the oath and
complied with the conditions prescribed by
the Presidents Proclamation of the Sth Of
December, 1868. If, in any case you have
good reason to believe that the oath has been
taken for the mere purpose of obtaining pos
session of personal property seized under the
confscation acts, with the intent to remove
it from the subsequent reach of the officers
| of law, you will make report of the facts and
reasons for your belief to this officer before
| disseminating proceedings or restoring such
| property to the possession of the owner.
| Were easier terms ever before offered to
rebels And yet the Copperheads complain
that the Administration compels the people
of the South to continue in instruction by
the unrelenting severity of the policy it
adopts towards them!

New HAMPSHIRE. Letter from Concord,
New Hampshire, says: "The greatest activ-
ity now prevails in both political parties in
New Hampshire. Republican and Opposition
campaign organizations have been formed in
nearly every town in the state, and public
speakers in large numbers have entered up
on their circuits. Every day from now till
the election, which occurs on the Sth day of
March, will be improved to the fullest extent"

Webb, of La Crosse, and Col Mur,hy. the

the hacked and mutilated Sweet, the war
worn Poole, the manned Curtis, the nervous
and sententious Beal, limping from the effects
of rebel lead, but refusing to Yield to time
and grow old; Mansfield, with his long
deserved and faithfully worn eagle; Col
Murphy, indicated but not restored; the
able and polite Doolittle; the firm and in
dependent Howe the imperturbable Cobb,
alike unfinching in Legislative halls and in
the field; the faithful and popular McIndoe
the smiling and good natured Copperhead Ed
ridge; the earnest and sincere Davis the hu-
morous and buoyant Webb; the venerable
looking Richards, the founder of the first
paper in Milwaukee, and his less venerable
ancient opponent across the river of the
Wing persuasion. In chat and song, and
dance, the night passed till the ''wee small
hours" of the evening, when all went sober
home, grateful to the generous ladies for
opening their doors to so pleasant reunion
and feeling that we had enjoped one of the
green spots in the pathway of life, whose
cheer sheds its fragrance into the future.
But | have spun this yarn too long. | am
glad to notice that the merits of two gallant
officers have been recognized, and that Has
