Asp now the question for guessing is
whether or no the President will call
an extra session Of Congress. In the
event that he does Democratic papers
are endsavoring to show that it was the
fault of the Republicans in not passing
needful legislation; while Republican
journals are claiming that it was Demo-
cratic fillibustering that prevented pro-
per legislation, and they are consequent.

the probabilities are that there will be
some laws passed on the subject. Inc
herd laws have been pretty thoroughly
discussed and some amendments recon-
mended to the present law.
For = few days no action has been
taken on the niDety-6ve thousand dollar
relief bill. The House desire to make a
direct appropriation of that amount,
white the Senate insists that the counties
receiving any portion of this fund shall
pay it back to the State in payments at
two, three, four, five aqd six years with
out interest.
Mr.. Legate's tax bill has been pretty
thoroughly discussed and passed by the
House. This is said to be one Of the
most important bills introduced during
this session. 1t has clause providing
for the semi-annual payment of taxes.
Both houses are now holding night
sessions, and a large number Of bills are
being rushed through. A few days age
the indications were that our Legislature
might reach its time for adjournment

THE LEGISLATURE.

There is one thing that is real encour-
aging in regard to our Legislature and
that is, the time for adjourpmens is
drawing nigh. We feel assured that If
the people had an opportunity to
vote on the proposition for .bi-ennial
sessions of the Legislature it would be
carried almost unanimously.
Last Saturday the State Treasurer
sent in report to the Senate, in re-
sponse to a resolution formerly passed by
that body, showing the amount Of State
bonds now outstanding, and the dates
and amounts of the respective issues
since the organization of the State Gov
ernment. The report is an interesting
document to those who are desirous OF
knowing about the manner in which our
State bonds have been disposed of. We
will publish the report Oh the first psse
of our paper next week.
Senator Robinson denOunces state
ments in this report as false. According
to the report when Robinson was Gov
ernor State bonds were sold to 4. 5.
Stevens at sixty cents on the dollar, and
that Mr.. Stevens then sold those bonds
at ninety-ive cents on the dollar. II
these figures as given by the State
Treasurer don't lie, its no wonder the ex'
Governor should be willing to sacrifice
his personal interest and serve the peo'
pie as Senator; it is but just that hi
should, he owes them some little.
A bill was passed by the House re
, ducing the fees of the State printer, bu

agree with the House; it was the opin
ion of the Senate that the fees of Stat

bilities are that there will be no chang

The Inter- Ocean, while discussing JEFF.
Davis invitation to Rockford, says that
JEFF Davis was set at liberty because the
government was merciful, not because it
was just" Now, that paper certainly
ought to know that such is not true. JEFF
Davis was set at liberty because Chief
Justice Chase, while holding a term of the
circuit court of the United States, in the
state Of Virginia, MOLE pressed the indict-
ment against him. That Indictment was
adjudged bad by the court, because the
crime specially charged therein was declar-
ed by the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution of the United States to be
punishable. by certain disfranchisement of
rights. The court held that, inasmuch as
the constitution, as amended, declared that
a certain punishment should be inflicted
upon persons who mad participated in a
certain capacity during the rebellion, that
all other punishment was excluded, and
that the jurisdiction of all classes of cases
was, by the constitution, taken from the
courts and transferred to congress, which
body could enforce it, or could by a two,
thirds vote, release the guilty from the
punishment. The court, therefore, set eff
DAVIS at libetry because it could not help
it, through a blunder made by the Repub-
licans themselves, in the form of the l4th
amendment.
