laiure met and completed a full organi-
zation to-day. Everything glided along
sinoothly, although it wa thought that
there would be a serious hitch on Ser
geant-at-Arms OF the Assembly. But a
new man-Putnam, Of storey-was put
on the track this morning, which Gu
tirely changed the complexion Of affairs,
and after a few moments caucusing by
the Storey delegation, the thing WAS
Fixed. Caucusss OF the Republican
members Of both houses were called at
10 A. A.. during the sitting OF which the
| Third House and the Democrats eau
cused on the Ormsby House corner.
The caucuses Of both houses were very
harmonious that is, ] suppose they
were, for they were held with closed
doors-as they only remained in ses-
sion about three-quarters OF an hour.
The senate
Met At u NJ, and was called TO order by
Lieut.. Governor Denver. President Of
tho Senate. and proceeded to the cleo.
ton Of temporary officers, n list Of which.
down TO copying clerks. was telegraphed
10 the NEvs this forenoon. During the
progress Of the temporary organization,
Senator Davenport OF Lyon. moved that
the Senate be governed by the standing
rules OF the Senate, with the exception
OF rule 90. (This is the rule mentioned
in my letter Of yesterday, relative to
placing this appointment OF committees
in the hands OF the Senate.) The Pres
ident called the attention OF the Senate
to rule 62, which declares that no rule
shall 10 rescinded except by n tvo-third
vote. Senator Stevenson Of Storey. sug-
gested TO the chair that the senate was
at that timo trying to organize. and
could wait for two-third votes until such
time. As the Senate was working
simply under q temporary organization
and had adopted no rules, the Presi-
dents point was not well taken. and, on
the question being put, Mr. ~Davenport's
resolution was adopted.
The choice OF officers and attaches
seems to give general satisfaction-ex-
cepting to the defeated candidates. Mr..
Stevenson, the Speaker pro tem,, is
thoroughly competent for the position,
having had legislative experience, being
well versed in parliamentary law and
usage, aud being prompt Of action and
quick Of perception. After effecting a
temporary organization, the Senate on

and silly surrsises; but in reality il
meant nothing. There had been a mo.
ton made to swear in the attaches. but
they were not all present, and there be-
ing no other business but that, the SEN
ate took q recess. At the expiration OF
the hour. the Senate reassembled and
after swearing the attaches and appoint
ing committees to notify tho House and

ate, the Senate at 2:l2 p. NJ. adjourned.
