Tho Legislature adjourned to-day at
70 o'clock, being the constitutional limit
Of the session. No yetoeS were received
from the Governor. The work Of the ges.
sion in legislation will compare iayorably
with that Of previous sessions. There
we're 800 bills introduced In the House
and 3S in the Senate. OF these nearly
half failed to become laws, either from
lack OF time or because they were killed
while under way. All the importantle leg
iSlation, however, was secured and no
public Interests will suffer by the failure
OF measures.
