The present Legislature embraces gen
tlemen of considerable Legislative expert
enoe. The Senate is peculiarly favored in
this respect, a. there are only five new
members, including our friend Murine, OF
Rice, who is a. well posted a. any OF the
old ones. Among the representatives
there are many who are not experienced
in legislation, but the majority, We believe,
have previously been in the Legislature,
and under their guidance the business will
run smoothly. ''' .'',f. "a, ~ - . Go
Warned BY past experience, the press Of
the State has been chary of admonitions
to the members. The constitution allows
them sixty days to perform the business
for which, they were chosen. and all appeals
for shorter sessions have hitherto been In
effectual so we may conclude that the
present viii not be an exception.
The most exciting, If not the most i'm
portant, matter that viii come before the
present Legislature, is the election of a
United States Senator in place Of Mr.,
WILKINSON, whose term expires on the 4th
of March. The law provides that on the
second Tuesday of the session (Which in
this instance will be on the 10th of Janu-
ary), next preceding the expiration Of q
Senatorial term, both Houses shall meet in
joint convention to elect a Senator; but
it is not imperative that the electionshonld
be on that day, as the Convention may
adjourn from day to day during the ses-
sion, bat. cannot adjourn sine die until the
election shall have been made. -.
