Judicial and other legal printing thereof,
yet one cannot be thus taken to do the
printing Of half dozen parishes, as could
have been done by. the original bill, but
made every effort which they could use
to reduce its charges upon the State and
to cut of all those grants OF largesses
which have so much offended the moral
sense Of this community, and have final
~ induced the dominant party itself to
take away some of them.
But when the original bill was up ev-
e.y motion they made to amend was Pc
remptorily tabled and though they man.
aged to secure the floor long enough and
often enough to make earnest protest
against it, the bill was passed over their
heads under the previous question, a
gainst which they could not prevail.
So very far is it from the truth to say
that they neglected to do what they
could to prevent its passage, that the
Journals viii show that upon every po'nt
they called the ayes and hays, and made
every possible effort to defeat it. And
1t is owing to the earnest representations
then made by them, and to the refec-
tons Which their remarks awakened in
the minds Of the Republican Senators
that we now owe the amendatory bill
which has passed the Senate.-Pica-
