COMPANY. y Y 3 It
j A Senate bill, to make On appropria-
tion for the payment Of the miieage and
per diem of the members Of the General
Assembly, was taken up and caused con-
siderable confusion. The bill had been
referred to the Committee on Ways aud
Meams. Of which Whipper is Chairman,
several weeks ago. While Whipper was
absent in Washington the other me bers
Of the committee were desirous of re-
porting on the bill, but could not find
the original manuscript copy sent from
the Senate. To effect their object, the
committee copied one of tho printed
bills and reported upon it. Whipper
stopped the passage of the bill by stating
that it was not the original copy sent
from the Senate. The paper was recon-
mitted to the committee.
A Senate joint resolution, to appro-
PIRATE S47, 200 for the extension and re-

TIE CoTToN TAX TIE UNITED STATES
SUPREME oURT.-The very important
question ns to the constitutionnlity of
the tax levied upon cotton failed of a
fair solution before the United States
Supreme Court. Eight Judges learned
ia thu law henrd the arguments of the
learned counsel, pro and con. Four of
them decided the tax right and just, and
four decided it unjust and wrong. This
dead lock in that august, but almost
dead branch Of the Government, per.
mits, according to law, the decision of
the lower court-sustaining the consti-
tutionality of the tax-to stand as law
The question, however, may be taken
