THE LEGISLATURE.

Little was done yesterday, We'd
neSday, save the defeat of resolution
relieving the press from taxation until
January. The matter is one of
small momen! to The Constitution,
but the large body of our State press
need this indulgence. Publishing
newspapers is no child's play, and
no epicurean business. The tax is
small one to the State in the ag-
gregate, but important to the papers.
The large amount of public work
that the press do without pay, is
poorly offset by even exemption
from taxation. Thore is no other
single vocation that does SO much
work uncompensated for the people.
1t is correct FOlicy to foster news
papers. They are educators, CEN
sOrs, agents Of prosperity, promoters
of enterprise, diffusers Of knowledge.
We could amplify this subject, but
we refer TO it only as a measure of
justice to the press generally. Con-
StitNti0n.

On motion the appropriation act
was taken up and the Senate amend
ments were concurred in.
A resolution by Mr. Hoge declar-
ing that in the opinion Of this Gener-
al Assembly the fortieth day of the
session having fallen on Sunday,
that to-day, under the laws Of this
State, is required to complete, and
ought to be included in the forty
days.
Mr.. Hoge said that the adoption
of this resolution would probably
conciliate the present difficulties in
which the Assembly is placed.
Mr.. Cumming said that he would
vote for the resolution because it
was law, and not in a spirit of COM
promise.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr.. Brown Of Monroe offered the
following preamble and resolution:
Whereas, 1t has come to the
knowledge of this House of Repre-
sentatives that the United States
flag, which has been suspended
over the Capitol since the converting
of the Legislature, has been rudely,
reasonably, and feloniously remoy-
ed by some person, or persons, un-
known to this body therefore
Resolved, That the removal of
said flag, being an act of disloyalty
to the Government of the United
States, and disrespectful to the Gen
eral Assembly and people of Geor-
gia, a committee ofthree be appoint
ed to ascertain the name or names
of the offenders and report the same
to this Senate.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, and Messrs. Brown, Blue,
and Atkinson were appointed on said
committee.
Senate requesting Congress to
make an appropriation to reimburse
the city of Savannah for expendi.
lures in improving the navigation o.
the harbor Of Savannah, was earn.
Ostly advocated by Mr.. Kelly, and
adopted.
Memorial to Congress relative tC
the great canal was agreed to.
Also to amend the charter of the
Atlanta and Roswell Railroad Com
pany.
Nothing further Of special inter
est to our readers transpircd il
either house up to tho hour of ad
journment ON Monday night. The
Governor recognized the validity o
the session of Monday. Both houses
met on Tuesday with the question o
illegality hanging over them.
We will publish list of the acts
passed by this session of the Gener
al Assembly as soon as collated.

SENATE.
MONDAY, Dec. IL

MONDAY, Dec. /.
The Senate met at 8 A. M, Presi.
dent Trammall in the chair.
Mr.. Hinton moved to take up the
general appropriation bill by Sec
tons.
The motion was carried and the
sections of the bill severally read
and adopted.
The bill was passed.
Mr.. Chandler rose to a question
of privilege, to wit: that tho flag
which had hoated as 4 protecting
genius over the Capitol had mex
plicably disappeared, and he desired
to call the attention of the Senate to
the fact, that the cause of the mys-
terious occurrence might be investi-
gated.
Mr.. Mathews offered a resolution
that committee of two from the
Senate and three from the house be
appointed to find out by whom tho
flag had been hauled down, and for
what reason. Withdrawn.
Mr.. Hinton offered resolution
that, whereas, it had been repre-
sented by an experienced architect
that the Capitol Building is not en-
tirely safe, this Legislature shall hold
its next session in the former Capt.
tol Building at Milledgeville.
The Senate refused to suspend
the rules to take up the resolution.
Mr.. Bruton offered resolution
that Messrs. Lester, Hillyer, and
Reese be appointed to ascertain and
report whether the present session of
tho Senate is authorized by law.
/ Mr.. Lester made the point that
the resolution is Out of order, Tor if
the session is authorized by law the
resolution is unnecessary, and if not
authorized by law the Senate has no
power to act on the resolution; and
further, that by solemn two-thirds
vote taken on Saturday the Senate
had determined this to be legal,
The Chair ruled the point we'll
taken.
Bill to amend the usury laws of
this State. Passed.
Bill to require Justices of the
Peace, Notary Public, ex-officio
Justices to keep dockets of their
proceedings, and fer other purposes.
A few moments after the commit
tee retired the Secretary Of the Sen
ate presented the Senate resolution
to one Of the Secretaries of the Ex-
ecutive Department, who declined
to receive it, upon which the same
was placed in ths hands of the
Chairman of the Senate Committee,
who Immediately repaired to the
Executive Department but found
the door locked.
The discussion of the House reso-
luton, looking to adjournment SINE
die this evening, was resumed in the
afternoon session.
Mr.. Nichols opposed its adoption
on the ground of the constitutional
right of the General Assembly to
prolong its session. He moved to
lay the resolution on the table, but
withdrew the motion.
Mr.. Hinton spoke in favor Of the
resolution to prOlong, but the resolu-
ton does not contravene that right ;
they do not conflict, but the adop- |
ton of either would be constitution
al.
Mr.. Burns moved to lay the reso-
luton on the table, Carried by |
yeas 10, nays !.
Bill to incorporate the town of Ac-
worth, Cobb county. Passed. I
