Our STATE Legislature.

A Chicago daily speaking Of our State
Legislature. aptly STYLES it the Oh 'ianap-
om Legi.'a'ure." Well. for al! the good
it has done thus far. Err the people of the
State at large it might as appropriately
have been called together solely to enact
laws for the corporation of the city Of In
d;anapolis. and the benefit Of set Of sche>
ming .peculator1. as for any other purpose.
Indeed We incline to th- opinion that
these were the ref objects for which t
was called By lis i,xcel!cncv. o. i. VI q.
1t my possibly be that we are mistaken
in the matter. and that we miSjudge T. e
temper and spirit Of that august bo,it -
. few days more will determine. IS BY law
the session must soo1 come to- co e. If
when it ends any body can pole, ont to rs
any important action taken for the public
good. we shall be happy to make the
ameadc honora6i" BY rrom1tly confess;ng
our mistake The difficulty in the way E
beneficial le .islation seems to consist prn-
cipally of an oyerweening de ire on the
part of republicans to endorse everything
g,o.l. bad, and Indifferent done by the
State and national administrations during
the Last four years. and to oppose any
al ali eff ,rts on the part of democrats 10
b-ag buck the government TO the old
paths and landmarks which rendered it SO
prosperous in days gone by, never, we
fear. to return The Leaders of the domi-
nant party act as though they were Il
divine!y appointe custo.iians Of the hap
pincss and welfare ofthe people, and more
than intimate tha. democrats mast be
kept down. without regard 20 their rights,
even at the r-k Of n revolution if neces-
sary. We shall see hpT it al will end =
It is to be hoped however, TINT moderate
cpunsels will prevail, AM justice be &C
