LAST HOURS OF THE SESSION.

THE EIAuRA REFORMATORY APPROPRIATION VOTED
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES COMPLIMENTS =.
IFRoM A REGULAR CORRESPONDENT or THE TRIBuSE.l
ALBANY, May SO.-Tle Legislature brought its
labors 30 a close and adjourned sine die at O'Clock
this morning. The Conference Committee ON the
Elmra Reformatory item of the Supply bill reported
about a. m. that they were unable to agree; that
the Senate Committee refused to recede from its
action in striking out all appropriations for that in
stitution, and that the House Committee were
equally determined to noD-ooncur. A motion was
then made TO appoint another committee on the
part Of the House. with tho request for q like
committee from the Senate. Mr.. Prince and
others supported the motion. and declared
themselves ready TO keep in session all night
or week, if necessary. rather than yield TO the
stubbornness or injustice, as it was termed OF the
Senate in its treatment Of the Elmira Rcfornatory'
large majority of the House sympathized with the
sentiments expressed by the speakers and would
have sustained them at any Inconvenience TO them
selves had not Mr. Dexter, who represents the City
of Elmira, where the Reformatory is situated ana
whose personal popularity had carried the appro-
priation through the House soriginally, magnani-
mously relieved them from the difficulty. After
thanking his fellow-members of both political
parties for the kindness manifested toward him. and
expressing his conviction that the best interests Of
the State as well as of the people Of his locality re-
Quired that the appropriation he had asked for
should be made he said that in view of the evident
wish of both Houses TO adjourn the Legislature
without further delay, and fearing that the APP
pOintment of another Committee would only pro-
long the session without perhaps attaining the OBJ
jeot sought he moved thGt the House Tecede from
its position and concur in the Supply bill as 1t
passed the Senate.
This motion was carried without opposition and
the Supply bill having been disposed Of there re-
manned little else to do except to pass the customary
resolutions complimentary to the Speaker, Clerk Ser
geant-at-Arms, and other officers of the House.
The complimentary resolutions TO Speaker Cornell
were presented by Mr. Jacobs and supported by
Messrsl Beebe Ray and other Democrats, as well as
by Messrs PiersOD, Hustled, and other leading Repub
licans. Mr.. Hill of Greene County dissented on
tirely from the hatteriug encOmiums which bis
brother Democrats had pronounced upon the Speaker
not of their choice; but no was not permitted to
express the reasons for his dissent his voice being
drowned in storm of kisses. At 81 a. IN, the AS
sembly took a recess, during which brief and very
bosterous mock session" was held which Messrs.
Jacobs PieTsOn, Prof Clark. and Carey presided by
turns. after which Speaker Cornell resumed the
chair and made his farewell speech. concluding at
precisely O'Clock by declaring the Assembly adj
iourned sine die.
