THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1866.
The BOUNTY Legalizing Bill,

This measure occupied the attention OF
the House, during the entire session OF
yesterday. aud by the time Of the adjourn
ment had been loaded down with amend
ments, and had so completely changed in
it's physiognomy that it's earliest friends
did not recognize it. Within few weeks
past, many bonds and orders have been
issued by counties and cities to pay boun-
ties to volunteers. and in many counties
the soldiers have received them in lieu OF
money. We believe that in every instance
where these bonds have been issued in such
manner as TO conform to The law of 1861.
they will be held valid by :hc courts; but
questions are raised as to their legality.
and in some counties it is possible that
less attention has been paid to tho official
sction under which tho bonds were issued
than should have been. Unler these
circumstances. some persons are not dis
posed to purchase bounty bonds, while
those who do. shave them deeply enough
10 compensate them for any ossiLle lii-
cation. 1t is important. therefore. tha,
Legislative sanction should be given to he
acts OF counties and cities in this particu
lar. and although some members regarded
the bill as killed by the action of ysster-
day. we have little doubt that it will pass
in = satisfactory shape before this weel,
ends. and we advice every volunteer who
has bounty bonds in his possession. not to
sacrifice them under the impression tha,
the Legislature will sanction their ieruli.
