The senate of the United States is en-
deavoring to undo the work of the house.
by declining to concur in it's amendment TO
the appropriation bill, providing for the nu.
merical reduction of territorial legislatures.
The senate does not disturb the house pro.
vision cutting down the per diem to four
dollars, but strikes out the clause limiting
membership Of the council to nine, and Of
the house to eighteen. This is the PROPOSE
tion contended for in the house by the dele.
gates from tie various territories, and if the
bill passes in this shape it will be generally
acceptable. Territorial legislatures have
been, to a considerable extent, composed of
men who procured their election because
they wanted the salary connected with the
position. The proposed reduction will have
tendency to keep this sort Of talent at
home.
