Biennial leQlslatures.

The n. o. Times, Of the 18th inst, has
an editorial favoring biennial sessions of
the Legislature. We observe that several
Of the nominating conventions have adopt
ell resolutions favoring such change. We
approve the idea aud think the convention
would act wisely in enact!ng snch pro-
vision of the Constitution. The following
extract from the Times article will, we
opine, meet with universal endorsement:
But the principal Of the biennial session
il a sound one. We hove too much lrgis-
lation, and pay too much for it, both as
regards the specific expense Of the Assem-
bly, and the collateral and consequent
expenses growing out of their acts. With
"a wholesome, smoothly working Constltn-
ton which eliminates Useless offices and
reduces the rmolHm-Hts of the iHdisprnsa-
blr ones, which provides for n correct and
searching assessment aud an economical
aud effective collection of the taxes. there
will hr II" need of for annual meetings of
law making body aud very little for that
body to do nj any time. All the more
prosperous and tHtrrPri-iHg S'air>. TWEEN
ty-srven in number, have adopted the
pliil, Hlil most nI Tue hlh'TS are "IIol@iN
considering the idea of biennial sessions.
Where the plan has been tried, it is found
Ia work admirably, and statesmen in every
part of the country now recognize tue ,ir-
tue and the advantage of it. We trust
that the Convention will include tins in
their scheme of economy and reform.
There would lr uo complete system of re-
irruchmrut WHICH dues not include IL. and
certainly thrrr II no State more sadly IN
need of such system than Louisiana.
