Legislative PROCEEDINGS.

Up to Mondsy OF this week, 454
bills had been introduced by members
of the Legislature. OF this number
1874 were introduced in the Senate,
and ago in the House. or these, 80
had passed both Houses and received
the approval of the Governor. Very
many of the members are ut work in
Producing new bills and engineering
them through the House and Senate
in manner which indicates either
real or financial improvement in
Statute. law. If the time of our legis.
lators is of any value it would have
been better for the State had Senator
Morrill, either kept his back pay or
never have drawn it. AS it is, the
legislators seem to think it part of
their duty to get rid OF an equal
amount of money by some direct APP
preparation and to this end they have
tried to spend it on" fish culture as well
as for number Of 'benevolent" objects,
and finally they are trying to return
il to the U. S. Treasury. 1t is very
probable that they will succeed in do
ing something with the important sub
jcct before their labors close. Many
bills have been introduced to change
the liquor law, some for the purpose
of making it more stringent, and some
favoring the rumscller. Among the
latter we notice one introduced by
MIR. Gilman, of Montpelier, by which
the highest penalty which can be i'll
ficted on the seller, shall be fine of
$40 for each offence. Doubtless Mr..
Gilman feels as though he ought to
do what little he can to ameliorate
the condition of his constitute hts, as
some of them have found that "the
way of the transgressor is hard"
But we apprei!!end that his bill will
not find much favor with the enlight-
ened portion Of the community.
One of the latest subjects which en-.
crosses the attention of the Legisla.
ture, is bill to remove the Capitol
building from Montpelier to Burling.
ton. Montpelier people do not seem
to be mach frightened atthe prospect
nor Burlington much elated. Ths
knowing ones say that the bill was in
troduced for the purpose of cutting
down hotel prices at Montpelier, anf
also to awaken the people of that vii
lage to the Importance of better hote
accommodations. The earnestnes
with which the Legislature is takin,
hold of the subject may be seen by
bill introduced few days since b,
Mr.. McFadden, of Wells, to proven
immigration. The bill is IS follows
Section 1.-The sum of one hun
dred dollars is hereby appropriated
which may be drawn from the treasu
ry, or so much thereof as may be nee
essary, BY the scrgent-at-arms, to b
by him appropriated in the construc
ton of suitable hotel accommodation
in the town of Montpelier, and ligh'
ing the streets, and such other in
provements in said town of Montpe
ier, as are suitable and proper in thl
age and generation.
Section 2.-This act is designate
to prevent the removal of the Stat
House to Burlington.
Section 3.-This act shall take e
feet from its passage.

Harper's Journal of CioiHsation concerns
itself, as q journal Of civilization should do,
quite energeticaliy about the sufferers on
the lower Mississippi. 1t gives them the
benefit Of q large cartoon representing the
North, in the likeness of q stalwarr, buxOm,
wellto-do young lady, protecting and en-
couraging the SOUTH in the likeness Of q
halt starved, pinchei and most unhappy
looking damsel. The sketch is good
sketch. and We wish with all our hearts it
we're likely to be as effective, a. it deserves
to be in waking up Northern men and wo-
men to deserve what they certainly have
not vet deserved, the tribnte which it pays
them. Ii we except Boston, no Northern
city has earned % yet, in any serious de-
gree, the right to- be thus represented.
AZ for New York, our dull and worse
than useless chief magistrate has done
worse than turn q deaf ear to the cry OF
distress from the far South. He has treated
it 40 Q personal appeal to himself and his
private circle of friends; and, instead OF
roueing or trying to rouse the people OF the
metropolis to q sense Of the great suffering
in Louisiana and Of their duty in the prem
ises, he has conten ted himself with exhaust
ing the resources Of hie Own charity and
the charity of those over whom be has any
personal Influence. The splendid result we
have seen in the solemn ratification that on
Thursday Of last week Mayor havemeyer
received so 25 for the Louisiana suite rers :"
On the whole we can not honestly say
that we think liberality of this sort dc.
serves large cartoon even in journal OF

The Case Of Dockray.
A late Cuban letter ssys:

Mr. Dockray, the American who pre-
eented himself TO the Spanish authorities at
Nuevitas last Good Friday. is still confined
at the Carcel Naci0nal in Puerto Principe.
He was ten days in close confinement, but
now has clean and comfortable quarters,
and il in go0G health and spirits. One of
the clerks of the United States consulate
general at Havana has arrived in Puerto
Principe. His business is to assist Mr..
Dockray a. Interpreter. A council Of war
will convene for the trial as soon as the
papers are received from the Captain Gen
eral. The officials are much troubled as to
the accusation against him. At first
it was supposed he was a chief among
the insurgents then PortillO declared
he was q newspaper correspondent
subsequently he was accused as a
spy, and now the authorities say he
was sent to Cuba by the United States gov
eminent to gather information about the
insurrection. The Spanish officials aver
that his papers compromise him very much,
though not in any definite way. They show
that be was three months with the insur-
gents under Maxine Gomez, and for some
time with the President and government,
and that he was present at the recent bat
tie of Navauio and Guasimas, and is in pos
session of q large amount of inform alton
regarding the insurrectiOn. Persons who
have seen him report that Mr.. Dockray de-
clares he is entirely satisfied with the
prompt action of the consul general at
Havana and the Department of State in at
tending to his case, and has no doubt. if he
is fully and justly protected in his rights
and trial under the treaty with Spain, that
he will be speedily released.

The suaer,.s Poor Of Louisiana.

We have nearly grown tired OF urging
the claims of Louisiana on our wealthy cltl-
zens tor aid in the terrible situation into
which they have fallen through the vast
foods of the spring. But publishe ed letter
from DR.. John T. Metcalfe IN behalf OF the
sufferers gives US still another opportunity
OF pressing their necessities before the
minds of the New York public. These poor
people in thousands, men, women and chill
dren. have been flooded out of their homes;
the crops having been ruined, there Ia no
hope in the future until new planting
shall have grown up, and the United States
government appropriation and charitable
donations, from Boston and other gem
erous cities are all now standing be-
tween these people and starvation. New
York, in this instance, has displayed tor
pidity of humanity that ls perfectly unac-
couutable. Money dribb,es in Tor these
tamine-stricken creatures in paitry dollars,
when it should surge into the relief treas
ury in. thousands and tens Of thOusands.
The rich of this eitv are spending these
thousands and tehs Of thousands in yacht
ing and racing with absolute fiuency; can
they not spare some what to refieve the are
misery Of their fellow creaturte in L0nis-
lanai Why does not that old -fogY and
ponderous institution, the Chamber OF Com
merce, consider this vital question: surely
it is time that New = York revived her
ancient and time honored instincts towards
generous charity and rose up 20 the assist
ance aef her suffering fellow citizens ~
