LOCAL MATTERS.

CAUCUS OB SIMON.PURE READJUsTERs-
The BILL DISTRIBUTING THE PUBLIC REyE-
NUE. ApPROvED.-A conference Of the Simon
Pure readiusters OF the General Assembly
was held in the hall Of the House OF Dele
gates last night-Senator Fulllerson in the
chair during the early part Of the evening,
Senator Massey later, and Messrs. Wood and
Robinson of Portsmouth secretaries. A
communication, OF date 18th December,
from caucus Of readi listers presided over
by Senator Smith, proposing that steps to-
wards a union of all the readjusters be
taken, was read and referred to the Business
committee.
At the request Of Mr.. Ficklen, Mr..
Barbour, the chairman Of the Business
Committee, read the bill published in
this paper yesterday proposing to
distribute the public revenue-twenty-
five cents on the one hundred dollars
to the support Of the government, ten
cents to schools, and fifteen cents to the pay
ment Of interest on the public debt-and
explained the same, item after item. He
said that the main features were proposed
by Senator ,Fulkerson, and he claimed no
credit for it excepting the mere drafting OF
Lit after consultation with Senator Fulker-
! son,Mr. Neeson, AttorneyGcneral Field,
Senator Grimsley, MIR. Harrison of Sussex,
and others. Mr.. Barbour was of the opinion
that the bill would stand the test Of the
courts, and was fortified by the views OF
Acknowledgement Field and Mr.. Neeson
and other eminent legal gentlemen.
The conference approved Mr. Barbour's
bill.
Mr.. Barbour also outlined the bills be
and his associates have in course of pre-
| paration for the refunding Of the public
debt in three-per-eent. bonds and for the
| disposition OF the lieense-tax. On these
matters there were short speeches from
some six or eight gentlemen Several OF
them were violently opposed to dedieatinsg M q; g
ment OF the new bonds. They thought Mr.,
Barbour's bill, for the distribution Of the
revenue too liberal. Two desired that
forty cents out OF the fifty be set aside fol
support OF government, and the other ten
given to the public-school funds! "
The conference, however, encouraged
Mr.. Barbour and his fellow committeeman
to go on with the preparation of the bills.
