Illinois Legislature.

The Goth general assembly Of Illinois viz.
tually ended its labors last Saturday, though
the final adjournment did not take place until
Tuesday, the adjournment from Saturday to
Tuesday being made to enable the Governor
to read and pass upon the later batch of laws
that had been passed.
Very little respect, apparently, was paid to
the fifty or sixty vetoes of the Governor. All
the bills vetoed, except about dozen of Who'll
ly unimportant ones, were passed cover his
head" tAr M
The bill supplemental to the act incerpo-
rating the Ottawa Manufacturing Company
passed both houses on Saturday, and appears
to have been approved by the Governor,
though no express mention of the tact is made.
We have some further words in reference to
this bill in another column.
Aresolution OF thanks to Speaker Corwin
was offered in the house by Mr. Casey, demo-
cratic member, and elected many warm ex-
pressions of friendliness for the Speaker, both
from political friends and opponents, and was
unanimously auOpVeu.
The Governors nominations of Commits
sioners for the Southern Penitenitary were not
confirmed by the senate, SO that nothing will
again be done about the erection of that in
stitution for the next two years. The com

lum, however, were confirmed. AS rlH
The session on Tuesday morning was very
brief in both houses and the proceedings con-
sisted almost wholly in receiving messages from
the Governor, announcing the approval Of bills.
In the senate there was q bare quorum pres
ent, while the house was without quorum.
Thus has ended another session of the
Illinois legislature, and another cause of un.
easiness and anxiety on the part of oil thought
ml people; for, as old Judge Pope once re-
marked, "When one Of these western legisla.
lures gets fairly to work, there is no telling
where the work of ruin and devastation will
end" The late Legislature passed more laws
by fourth than any of its predecessors, and
probably fewer of any real public benefit It
was economical and extravaganza, calm and
tumultuous, industrious and indolent by tits
and starts, often undoing one day all the good
done the day bef0re-never. exhibiting, on the
part OF ats members, any but the most medi-
OGRE talent or legislative ability, and showing
a woeful lack throughout Of any settled pur-
pose or principle of action--a lamentable
want of anything like cool headed, steady
handed, judicious, firm leadership. What a
blessing it would be if every legislative body
IN tue country could have bat single Clay
or Douglas in it!

Blind Asylum at Jacksonville Destroy.
ed BY Fire. X Ff

About o'clock on Tuesday merning the
state institution for the education ofthe blind,
at Jacksonville, ILL.,, was discovered to be on
fire and by IL o'clock all that remained of the
structure were the charred and blacksned
walls. The fire seems to have originated from
bad flue in the rear Of the building The
inmates were all got cut safely, as was also q
large portion Of the furniture and fixtures; but
the splendid organ, and many other Of the
more heavy and costly fixtures were destroyed.
The total loss is estimated at $4,000, Of
which $40, 1000 are covered by insurance. The
pupils, most of whom are children, have been
temporarily distributed among the citizens of
Jacksonville. = q ~ - v 49,. --.
A blind asylum is one Of those public chart
table institutions that are indispensable, and
the institution will have to be rebuilt as soon
as possible. 1t is not probable, however, that
it will again be located at Jacksonville. The
main objection to that city is its inadequate
supply of good, wholesome water. A large
portion of the water used at the institution
just destroyed was rain water, collected from
the roof INTO costly cisterns 1t is minated
that the Governor will probably call an extra
session OF the legislature within month or
two to take steps for the erection of a new
asylum and in view Of this probability, sun.
dry cities are already presenting their claims
to become the location. Springfield offers a
fine College building, at present not in use,
TOR the temporary accommodation of the asy.
lum. Peoria is agitating the question Of offer
ing bonus, and presents her central and
beautiful location And Ottawa urges, as her
first claim, the cheapness with which an album
dance OF the purest water can be obtained
here by means Of artesian wells.

BOLD BURGLARS IL DAyESPORT.-Two
burglars entered the dwelling House of WIN.
Hill, back of North Davenport, on Tues.
day night, and ransacked the house from
top to bottom. Mr.. Hill was not aroused
until they had nearly completed their work,
aud then dressed Ieisurely, thinking some
neighbor was knocking for admission.
On going out he saw the men disappearing
with bundles on their backs. He gave
chase, and one of the burglars turned and
fred at him. Seeing that'he still pursued,
they then took vigorously to their heels, and
turning into grove were lost sight of.
Everything movable in the house was
carried of, leaving not even stitch of
clothing for his wife. The burglary was
evidently the work of those familiar with
the house.

Communicated.
New hrm--Dr'S Knapp & HaverGtiOk.

EDITOR OF THE ARGUS, Sri notice that
the Little Stick editor of the Union has gone
into company with that old potbellied b!oat
and quack, DIR. Knapp, and publishes what
purportS to be su extract from letter from
old Knapp to Little Stick, finding fault with
the Rodman House, complaining Of poor
fare, poor beds &C., &c. The old quack,
Knapp, has stopped with me for some years,
and has generally had No. 3, containing
spring bed and two FIRST class hair mattresses
top OF the springs, and other furniture to
correspond. 1t has generally taken two
servants TO do his errands about town, and
to whom or for whom he never paid or was
charged a cent. He has Jared as well as
any guest of the house, and that is we'll
enough for the house to draw a larger and
better class OF custom than it ever had
under any former proprietor,-sn enough
to give the present proprietor profit on his
business, which is more than most of the
former proprietors have enjoyed.
But, either the class of diseases which
old Knapp treats is falling off, or the public
has discovered that he is an old humbug
aud QUack, for, of late, he hasn't enough to
do to pay his expenses, so The undertook
to persuade me that / ought TO keep
him free of charge in consideration Of his
blowing for tie house. | declined his lib.
erAl offer and required him to pay for what
he had, as | do all my guests, and at the
same rates. The old bloat learning that he
could not dead.head on me, found it neces.
sary TO hunt cheaper house-which he had
a perfect right TO do. But he had no right
10 lie about me afterwards, as Little Stick
does. Little Stick, in his little Union, (which
] am sorry to say belongs to the same party
that dO) spoke very highly Of the ROdmRn
House as long as he thought he was getting
his meals, whiskey and cigars free,-and
when he found he was not, he commenced to
abuse the house. The principle | have
adopted in doing business is not, | presume,
very different from that Of other people. 1t
is this: If employ man to do job for
NE pay him for it, If ask an editor to
advertise my house pay him for it. If !
ask him to accept the Inequalities of my
house do not charge him for it. But if he
voluntarily RdvertiSes my house, and then
calls for meals, drinks, cigars, &C., and
then walks off without even saying, "by
your leave, sir" that is horse of another
color.
Considering the class of diseases that old
Knapp treats, | am not surprised to see that
he has formed a partnership with Little
Stick. hope the business of the new firm
of Drs. Knapp & Haverstick will be profit.
able enough to enable the editor Of the
Union to pay the little bill he owes the
Rodman House.

The Rock ISLAND IMPROVEMENTS WOKK
FOR THE Poor HEIRs.--The telegraph fur.
nisheS the following, under date ofWashing,
ton, the 18th:
The army appropriation bill contains an item
Of $1,000 600 for the repair and improvement Of
the srmory at Rock Island, Ills one half of which
amount is for constructing the bridge connecting
the cities Of Rock Island and Davenport. The
total appropriation is SlOOOO,OO0 greater than
last year.
We expect soon to hear that the Poor
Heirs are lobbying at Washington to pre-
vent the appropriation.
VIII Congressman Hawley write another
letter to Harding asking him to defeat the
appropriation for this bridge so that the
Poor Heirs can retain the monopoly of the
ferry business?
