ConeeaIment of Laws.

The so-ealled laws of the so-called
Legislature of the so-called State of Ten
nessee SO far as they go officially to the
public, are things done in corner. We
confess we know very little about them,
and we suppose the public at large to be
much in the same condition. If we are
to suffer and be governed by them, it
would be well to put detectives on the
track, and run them down for the com
mon benefit. The publication of laws
in papers of obscure circulation is very
ingenious mode of concealment, and a
refined cruelty, often involving the
rights, security and property Of individ-
aals. who have a right to be informed,
that they may know what is allowed and
what is forbidden. If Ignorance Of the
law excuses no man" neither should
concealment Of the law excuse Cover
nors and Legislatures.
Since we are all more or less interested
in this matter, it would be labor well
appreciated, and we believe also duly COM
nensated. if some one would collate and
publish the public acts of our de tdefo
government, which are now to be found
only in part, and on the shelves OF one
lawyers library in ten. Asto one public
act of the Legislature, that relating to
legal advertisements, correspondent OF
the Avalanche, who, from his signature,
we take to be member of the bar, has
made a fortunate discovery Of the act
itself. And, from his exposure of its
terms, it appears that the publication OF
these advertisements now made, is in
effectual, because, by the terms OF
the iniquitous act itself, illegal. In
the absence of confirmation by the Sen
ate, the appointment of the Governor OF
particular newspapers for this purpose,
fails of giving them the requisite official
authority, as contemplated by the act
under which that appointment pretends
to be made. We hope further examina-
ton will be given to this subject, and that
we shall have an authoritative expression
from the members of the bar, in the alb
sence of a judicial decision. 1t is true
we have been SO long the subjects of OPP
preston that we have come to take acts
Of despotism as matter of course, and
to submit, as a general rule, with a very
tame acquiescence. But it will do no
harm, and may prove beneficial, if some
little holder and more indefatigable and
enterprising than the rest, will take
lantern and 90 round in search of our
lost rights, if it should haply SO turn out
that we have any to be found.

CONGRESSIONAL.


In the sepate. yesterday, the chair sub,
mitted a communication from General
Grant, inclssing reports Of district com
manders in the South, giving the number
Of white aud colored votes registered In
the different States, the number cast for
aud against the ratification Of the Con-
stitution, aud the number reglecting to
vote.
Davis gave notice OF his intention to
Introduce bill. at an early day, for the
admission Of the territories OF Arizona
and Montana. ..
The chair laid before the Senate the
resignation of J. W. Forney, Clerk OF
the Senate.
Wilson offered joint resolution 70 re-
store North Carolina, Virginia, Ala
bama, Florida and Louisiana to repre-
ssntatiou in Congress Ordered printed.
Sherman called up his bill for the ad-
mission Of Arkansas, and suggested the
advisabiliiy of taking immediate action
upon it. Referred to Judiciary COM
tee.
Senate then adjourned until Saturday.
In the House, Beck offered a resolution,
directing the Secretary Of War and the
General Of the Army TO commu nicate
the reports of the several district COM
manders as to the election on the ratif-
cation Of the proposed constitutions in
Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina
and Louisiana, and for the election Of
officers Hereunder, with accompanying
papers, etc. Adopted.
Schenck made statement in reference
to recent New York item that neither
the Committee on Ways and Means nor
himself knew Of any complaints against
the Collector Of Internal Revenue-Bai-
ley, of New York-and they had no per-
son employed in any secret detective
service. The committee did not claim
authority, and certainly had not the dis
position to enter on that business.
A bill to admit North Carolina, South
Carolina, Louisiana and Georgia to rep
reseutation in Congress was taken up
Stevens, of Pennsylvania, offered the
following amendment as an additional
section:
And be IL further enacted, That the
provisions of section II, article 5, of the
constitution Of Georgia, shall not apply
to debt due to any person who, during
the whole term of the rebellion, was loyal
to the United States and opposed seces
sion.
Stevens stated that he would allow the
whole day for debate on the part of mem.
bers opposed to the bill, and that he
would ask vote on it tomorrow.
