hIE INTERIOR JOURNAL,
FRIDAY. MAY ,sii 2, tsp

THE Legislature which adjourned IN
the 24th instant, was, IN many rcspcds,
the best collection Of representatives Of
the people, the State has known for the
past twenty years. Though there va
no member Of preeminent ability, either
IN ths House or in the Senate, the nver-
Age intellect and intelligence Of each
belly was Of q much higher grade than
isnnsuslly seen in State General Aeem-
blis. A for the matter Of Official In
tesrity, this Legislature stood upoa the
highet ground o. for industry, wss
never equaled by any antecedent bcdy in
Kentucky. Laboring day and night,
scarcely adjouning long enough alta time
to enjoy the necessary repose Of nsturc,
it accomplished more, did Its work bet
ter, and more faithfully subservsd the
interests Of the people, than any Of its
predecessors had ever done before.
The compliment paid TO the House BY
Speaker McCreary, when he declared
the adjournment sine die, was ncrited.
As coordinate branch Of the Legisla-
ture, IL had, at all times, been mindful
Of ib duties and obligations. Nor can
any just case of complaint be urged
against this or the other branch Of the
Assembly. Growers have sough to Gro
ate public prejudice on account Of the
length Of the session, but when it Is borne
IN mind th&e the session did not begin
until thefrt week in january. and that
) work of the greatut magnitude was
required by the people 10 be undertaken,
which could not In the very nature Of
things be completed sooner than IL was,
this pitiablc objection must be couaider-
