Z CAUTION TO LEGISLATORS.

1t has become a custom in the legisla-
ton of the State tosuppose that any one
who wishes a law can draw the bill. IN
some instances they have been drawn by
distant attorneys, and sert here TO be put
| through on the shortest notice and Oh the
| best possible terms. This contemptuous
appreciation Of legislative capacity works
much mischief 1t produces suits, injunc-
tions, and other process Of law for ascer-
tanning the intent of the Legislature. It
involves the additional expense OF amend
ment by subsequent legislation. not i'm
impossibly bills have been written With
concealed purposes and plans, SO That leg
islatiye sanction may have been inadver-
tently given to acts Of much evil. he
act Of Congress confirming the Houmas
claim was of this class. Congless, Of The
earliest moment Of the session nee: suc-
seeding the passage Of that acs, suspended
the issuance CT any patent undef its cro-
visions ana 50 corrected sie 'Sroeg Of isns
prudent legislation
We have had some Instances ~ similar
careiessness on the part o. our own 1-egis-
lature. 1t renders il, therefore, important
that the committees 20 which suci ready
drawn bills are referred should scrutinize
them very carefully, and that the enroll
ing committee should do the same thing
Our Legislators should remember that the
eyes Of the American people are upon
them The honor of the Republican
party is entrusted to them. Upon their
action will depend whether the Republi-
can people and press can proudly commend
the honesty and public spirit Of their
acts. We have heretofore given notice to
whom it may concern that they need not
expect acts Of private gain to be defend
ed as acts Of party interest. We
shall initiate the indications Of the federal
administration, and abandon to public
condemnation ell whose misdeeds shall
involve the necessity of party yindica-
lion. We have no idea Of forfeiting the
ship for the contraband package of a. few
rascally passengers. Ourlegislators should
remember their responsibility to their party
and to the people. They have now a bill,
passed in accordance with the constitu-
ton, prohibiting, under adequate penal
ties, all undue influence from power,
bribery, tumult or other improper prao-
tees upon the privilege of free suffrage, or
upon the free and honest exercise of their
own legislative powers" Inspired by such
duties, subjected to such responsibilities,
and armed with such powers of protea- 1
ton, our legislators should give to their
successors a specimen session, and put
song of just commentator into the mouths
of their constituents and friends.

TIE ALDTNE, while issued with all the reg
ularity, has none of the temporary or timely
interest characteristics of ordinary periodicals.
1t is an elegant miscellany of pure, light
and graceful literature; and collection of
pictures, the rarest specimens Of artistic skill,
in black and white Although each succeeding
number affords fresh pleasure to its friends,
the real valne and beauty of THE ALDINE
will be most appreciated after it has been
bound up at the close of the year While other
publications may claim superior cheapness, as
compared with rivals Of similar class, THE

Police COURT There were three
cases before the Police Court on Satur-
day.
William Jones, . colored, but artist.
ic grub-grabber at the Mcclure House,
was charged with committing an as
sault on Peter Claus, the steward. and
Peter Claus, the steward, who is white
but violent, was charged with commit
ting an assault on William, Jones, the
colored artist. What it was all about
was one OF those things that no fellah
can find out" 1t resulted in each of
the accused being fined 81 aud costs
and in the court room being flood
ed by Modocs, Who left their lava beds
to be Witnesses in the suit.
John Wilson was about as wild,
greasy, unhappy looking specimen Of
humanity as We ever saw. John Was
found on Friday lying mp against Hol-
liday's planning mill as drunk as he
could conveniently be and get sober
again during the brief space allotted to
mans existence. John belongs to .

Flowers FOR THE Slck.-1f we con"
slider it q poetical and pleasing perform
ance to deck the graves OF the dead
with flowers, how much sweeter is that
custom which places roses and Vlolets
on the tables OF the sick. In our hos
pital are many who lie on their sick
beds while their more fortunate fellows
are enjoying the hustle of life the
beauties OF summer aud happy inter
course of friends. To them a boquet
would be the greatest Of blessings. The
delicate beauty Of the flowers and their
delicious perfume stimulate the imag-
nation, and do much to chase away
the ennm of the hospital ward. The
good Sisters, who have the hospital in
charge, while they do all their power,
devoting the energies Of their lives to
ameliorate the condition OF the sick,
cannot be expected to furnish punches
OF bright, fresh flowers every day to be
placed at the bedsides of the aifiug,
There are those Of our citizens, though,
wno could make weekly or semi-weekly
donations OF the richest Of these floral
treasures without missing them, and
who, we believe, need only to have the
matter called to their attention to make
it pleasing duty.

A FASHIONABLE BAZAAR.-TEe GER
eral topic of conversation among the Ia
dies is 1. Blum & Bros superb display
OF Ready Made Suits. This depart
ment, in fact. resembles great fashion
bazaar. But it is not only in suits
in which this house excels all compe.
titors, but their entire stock of Dress
Goods, Silks, Grenadines, Lace Goods,
and the like are infinitely the finest
and best selected in the city, and their
prices are the lowest, which is fact so
we'll established that our commenda-
tons would seem useless. Messrs.
Blum & Bro. inform US that they have
secured another talented cutter to take
charge of all the custom work. They
have now arranged an apartment ex-
cluslvely for fine work, such as silks
and other fine dress fabrics. For this
department they have selected sixteen
talented operators and fnishers, and
are now enabled to do the finest speci-
men OF workmanship in our city. BY
such a combination OF experienced OPP
orators and finishers and two talented
cutters at the head, I. Blum g. Bro
will supply a long felt want in our city
The firm deserves praise for this new
enterprise.
