VIRGINIA.

RICHMOND, Feb. 49, The House
of Delegates to-day adopted the re-
port of the>Committee on Courts of
Justice, embracing a resolution de-
claring the State Of Virginia not
liable for certificates issued under
acts Of II and '72 for one-third of
the public debt apportioned to the
State of West Virginia, except as
expressed ON their face to provide
for the payment of such proportion
of the amount thereof as may be
derived from settlement with West
Virginia in regard to the debt as it
existed at the time of the dismem-
berment of the State.
The discussion Of the bill provid-
ing for a settlement of the State
debt was begun in the Senate to-
day, and the House will take it up
tomorrow as the special order. The
indications are that it will pass in
the Senate without much opposition,
but in the House the fight will be
obstinate.
In the United States Ceurt to-
day in the suit of Skiddy, Duncan
and Barlow, Trustees, VS.. the At
lantic, Mississippi and Chic Rail
road, a petition was filed by, a
number of dissatisfied stockholders
in Virginia and Tennessee Railroad
Company, asking leave to bring
suit against Messrs. Perkins and
Fink, Receivers of the first named
road. and others. The petitioners
also filed a bill which assails the
validity of the sale of State stock,
and the claims made by the Board
of Public Works. Impeaches as
fraudulent and imperative the ff-
teen millions dollars margage, and
asks that the Virginia and Tennes-
see Railroad Company be restored
to it's independence and autonomy
and the possession of it's separate
property and franchises. Judge
Hughes permitted the petition be
filed, and stated that day would
be fixed on which to hear argument
after consultation with Judge Bond.

New Orleans.
The House is in Committee of the
Whole on the Legislative Appropria-
ton bill. The point of order
made last night against the amend
ment offered by Mr.. Herbert, of
Alabama, to repeal the jurors test
oath and regulating the mode of
drawing and pay of jurors, was dis
cussed at some length, and was
overruled, the chairman, Mr..
Blackburne, of Kentucky, deciding
that it was not in order.
The Committee of the Whole
agreed, by a vote of 129 to IS, to
the amendment offered by Mr.. Her
bert, of Alabama, to the Legislative
Appropriation bill fixing the pay
and regulating the manner of select
ing jurors, and repeating the jurors
test oath.
The question then arose upon an
amendment offered by Mr.. Southland
repeating the sections which author
ize the appointment of Supervisors
of Election. A long and interest
ing debate followed. Messrs. Hale,
of Maine, and Garfield, both speaking
for the Republican party in the
House, declared they would use
every parliamentary device to de-
feat the proposed amendment. The
discussion was of an excited char
acter, and the members on both
sides earnestly declared their pur-
pose to stand firm in their views,
either for or against the measure.
The proposed amendment was pend,
ing when the House adjourned, and,
as the Demecrets insist upon its
adoption, the indications are that
the bill will fail. This will necessi-
tate an extra session.
During the debate Mr.. Wood OF
New York, recited the history OF
the laws which were proposed to be
repealed. They were but a portion
