tutional?
The fourth section of the fifth article OF the
Constitution is in these words:
"SEcTIoN 4. At the first session Of the
General Assembly after the enumeration OF
the inhabitants of the State by the United
States reSpportionment of senators and
members Of the House Of Delegates, and
every tenth year thereafter, shall be made"
The Senate has decided that under this
section the General Assembly has no power
to reapportion senators and members OF the
House Of Delegates ottener than once in ten
years. This. was the answer to complaints as
to the existing apportionment. -...,
The sixth section Of the tenth article Of the
Constitution contains these words:
"SEcTIoN 6. The General Assembly shall
provide for % reassessment OF the real estate
of this State in the year 1889, or as soon

,ho LARGO debt of the State, used all its power
20 lcsea, all further aid by the State 10 WORKS
Of internal Improvement. The struggle was
ono If the most excited that ever occu'reoi Ill
the Legislature. The friends OF improve,
mont were very ardent in the support OF
their policy. They had taken iresh nope
from the prospects and promises OF the Gov
;nston and Ohio-now the chesapeake ana
Obio--road, and supported a liberal approprl-
alton especially to that great work.
The struggle was earnest. Both sides were
firm. The session on the 9TH March had
been extended to ninety days, and could not
be prolonged beyond that time save by
two-thirds vote. Several fruitless efforts
were made to extend 1.-THE anti-inprove-
ment PARTY generally in the opposition. The
tax bill was passed; but the appropriation
bill was caught in the gate.
The General Assembly held night sitting
at the close Of which the session expired by
limitation, and the presiding officers deliv-
cred their valedictories.
Governor WISE, then filing the Executive
chair. being aware of the condition OF things
and the probable Adjournment of the Legisla-
lure "IllOll passing III, "fPiVb''"'tSA "'-'s
had prepared his proclamation cohvenlng
the body in extra session on the following
Monday, the sth March. Heappeared IN The
House of Delegates, and immediately after
the SPEAKER left the chlir he addressed the
members in response TO Il general call upon
him for speech. But he began his speech
by reading to them his proclamation dated
the 9TH. He followed it with one of the hap
piest speeches he eeey made, and there
seemed to be general good htupor established
among those present.
The Legislature reassembled OH Monday.
and continued in extra session for thirfy1two
days, doing great deal of work and disposiEg
of all the important bills.
The motives of the hitch Oh that occasion
and of that on Tuesday were widely different,
but the same result was arrived at.
