wAssISaToS, January ls, ls7a.
aoyERNUR: The question whether an extra
ordinary session" Of the Legislative Assembly
can extend beyond sixty days cannot VOL adj
init Of difference Of opinion.
A negative answer IL the only one which
seems 10 be Justified by either the letter or In
tention OF tho act OF tho 2lst OF February, ISL,
establishing the present government Of the Dis.
The Bth section Of that not afler (among other
thInED directing that 'time, place and man
ner'F Oh holding the sessions OF the Assembly,
s s1 Sentaips these words, "ss we'll as tho
soImenooment Of tho regular sessions OF the
LoTlaiature.n Then this clause followE "Pro.
S S,ss he term Of sixty days except the nrst
serEion which may continue one hundred
dnya" Il will be observed that the limitation
IN eonnection with the WORT "sssslOu", prior to
MS pToViso is omitted or dropped, and the e.
presslon "nO session. 10 used.
la ar s.lyaoriinars. The language Is not no
regular sesaion, but no section. .,
Ii. therefore, embraces sessions Of both classes,
thS Governor under the provision Of tho SCI Soc
ton Of the organic act, US well as regular Sea'
sion. ,-
section with the insertion, or at least the lmpl.
cation, Of the word regular before session" and
this would not DO authorized by any ostablishci
Tule Of construction. II would bo, In elect, "a
making OF law and not an exposition Of Il. .
I'd would too be In conflict with the mani.
fest intention OF COngrets' IN creating the
limit the period OF the first and subsequent reg.
uiar sessions. This, l believe, 10 not denied by
S-oaid certainly be little else than absurd to
hold that while this Limitation IL imposed on
me regular sessions that tho called sessions
might DO OF indefinite duration. such con:
struotion would tend 10 defeat the design Oi
Congress, by allowing occasional or incidental
sessions 70 extend over greater period Of time
than the regular sessions
Il cannot, Therefore, hesitate In arriving At tho
eonolusiOn that tho present extraordinary Sos.
sion Of the Legislative Assembly cannot extend
or continue beyond "the term Of sixty days.'

Theodore Thomas started with fear and
trembling on his first trip with his or.
chestra through the South, consid ring
that he must inevitably lose good deal
until his reputation was established there
as firmly as in the North; but his fame
was greater than he knew, and he has
been playing to large and more than
enthusiastic audiences. The trip is an
assured success in every respect. The
Philadelphia Handel and Haydn society
Incorporating to perform, conformity with
Theodore Thomas orchestra, the "Dottin.
gen TIE Deum," one OF Handel's sublimest
efforts. Mr.. Santley, the baritone, will
sing the incidental songs, as he did at
the great tiennial Handel festival, last
June, in the Crystal Palace, London.
