WE GIVE, for the second time, a copy OF
the bill which Mr.. Coleman asked leave to
introduce in the House, pending the effort
ON Friday to take up the Texas and Pa
citc bill:
An act fixing the per diem pay of the mem
bers of the Legislature of the State OF
Texas, at all calico or special sessions.
SECTION 1. Be IL enacted by the legislator,
Of the State Of Terds, That the members o
the Legislature of the State of Texas shall
receive from the treasury of the State, fol
their services, the sum of two dollars and
no more, for every day they may be IN at
tendance upon all called or special sessions
OF the Legislature.
Sec. 9. Whereas, by virtue of a concur
rent resolution of the Legislature, passed al
the present session, said Legislature viii
adjourn on the thirty-first day of July
1870; aud whereas, it is true that the pub
lie interests will in all probabilty~fequire

ture, thus cresting--Sn emergency; ano
whereas, il is an Imperative public necessi

Sec. 8. That all laws and parts of laws

THE LIE IsL4T1VE sGTGATIoN

The Legislature, by a joint resolution,
stood adjourned sine die, at IL NJ. on the
thirty-hrst inst. The House failing to con-
cur with the Senate in resembling this joint
resolution, the Senate wrongtully notified
the House that it would not adjourn, as re-
quired by the joint resolution. Whereupon
motion to ad jpurn until 3 80 P. ". was in
troduced by one of the mtj prity, and the
Speaker putting the question amid points Of
order and appeals it was carried.
The Speaker then sent the chief clerk
into the Senate and had him make formal
announcement of the same. BY reference
to the journals of the House, published in
this issue, 1t will be seen that the minority
in the House, opposed to the Texas and Pa
cific Railroad bill, entered a solemn protest
against the proposed order of adjournment,
and calling Mr.. Kessler to the chair, this
minority formally adjourned sine die at 10
NJ, as agreed upon by the concurrent reso-
lu ion Of both houses.
Ia the meantime, prior to the adjourn
ment to $3.50 T.. NJ, message was received
from the Governor, urging the passage of
several important State measures, and ex-
pressing the hope that such could be effect
ed by continued session. This was an
executive demonstration, over which the
railroad side of House showed great exulta-
ton.
The legislative journals Of Wednesday will
be read with interest. An order was issued
from the House about 10 A. NJ. for the arrest
Of the absent members, and the sergeant-at-
arms proceeded to the court room, where
the minority was assembled, and took
them, without any demonstration of re-
sistance, in charge. They entered the leg
islative hall and the Speaker called upon
them to give explanation of their absence.
A number of gentlemen refused to do so,
while many entered a manly protest
against the authority that arrested
belief that the Fifteenth Legislature
adjourned sine die on the thirty first.
During these remarks low applause came
from the galleries and lobby, whereupor
Mr.. Campbell made the motion that they
be cleared of all spectators. Col. Rainel
opposed the motion, and said he desired
the public to see and understand all thai
was before the House, but without putting
the motion the Speaker ordered the ser
geant-at-arms to clear the galleries and hall
and the result was that very little was heard
of the remarks made by the gentlemen who
spoke for the minority. We are il formed
however, that able speeches were made b!
Messrs. Coleman, Boyd, Brooks, Rust anC
others, in which they manfully defined tn,
position of the minority. No quorum
acting IN the House, it adjourned til
80 =. NJ. At the afternoon session
quorum was obtained Icy the seating o
part of the minority.

NJ. Pickett offered the following resolu-
ton:
Resolged That the sergeant-at-arms take
into custody and bring to the bar of the
House such Of its members as are DOW alb
sent without the leave Of the II ause.
The resolution was read second time and
adopted. The chief clerk was directed to
make out a warrant of arrest, attach there

the same 10 the sergeant-at-arms.

The Governors message recognized that
the ad ,urnm"nt till 80 p. NJ. was a re-
peal of the joint resolution, and taking
into consideration the fact that an untiring
effort had been made to get an absent mem
Der, and the additional fact that large
sums of money had been offered by Tom
Scouts agents for the gentleman, It will be
regar ded that this novel mode of rescind-
ing was a piece of legerdemain on the part
of the railroad men, fixed up probably as a
last resort on Sunday.
