TGENEgSEE LEGEsAATURE.

TEENEGSEEE LEGISLATURE.
Our Senator Mr. Hodges has in.
trOduced a resolution looking to
the drafting Of a bill to cqualize the
assessments between the various
counties. Sach an effort was made
in Virginia, tut il was believed &c
be a move in the interest OF the
fundcrs, so as to increase the assess
mcnt and it fell through. Senator
Hodges should beware.
In the House Mr. OIell has in
troduccd a bill to establish a law
court in Bristol, the expense lhcle~
Of &c be borne by Bristol.
Mr.. Barnett has introduced 4
bill to cut down the salaries of all
State officers.
Bills to prevent officials from
tippling, and TO establish board Of
medical examiners in each grand
division OF the State, and to allow
taxpayers TO pay half Of their tax
es in past due coupons al Soc i'll
the dollar, were defeated.
So the officers can drink and the
quacks can practice, and he peo~
pie can pay their tax in cash, but
the bill to make bribery of the leg
isIature a penal off'n passed the
House.
Work on the East Tennessee
Lnnatic Asylum is to lie stopped,
and the State proposes to leave
her insane unprovidcd for. A bill
has been introduced by Mr.. Nc
MILAN to direct the Governor,
Treasurer, and Comptroller TO sell
the property already acquired for
the eastern and western a5ylums,

and to enlarge the one at Nssh-

These verbal promises are to be

TIE ENQUIRER AND DIS
PATCH VS.. Coz. FULIER-
SON,

The speech of our able and hon
ored delegate, Col. Fulkerson, on
the Funding Bill, has called forth
severe and personal editorial notice
es by the ENQUIRER and DIsPATCH,
based upon an incorrect report of
his remarks. Convinced of the in
justice it did him, the ENQUIRER has
made very manly explanation and
withdrawal Gifts offensive language.
The failure of the DISPATCH to do
So called from Col. Fulkerson a
personal explanation on the floor
of the House. Even without
knowledge of the highly creditable
course Ct the editors Of the En-
quirer, the people of Washington
county will give entire crodence to
any statement he may make, and i,
will look very singular to the peo
pie of Virginia that fealty to the
Funding Bill must be nude the
price of exemption from insult up
on the floor of the General Asscm-
bly,.
Col. Fulkerson can understand
that the Southwest will sustain him
as agrinst this great public iniquity,
the attempt to bal in the face OF
the people mighty public debt
after violent hands have destroyed
the identity of the contractor.
