The Legislature has been at work

Bailey's Subcommittee may not visit
Bhcksburg College TO investigate it,
Senator Eskridgc has gotten bill through
the Senate for the joint Committee on
Schools and Colleges to make the invcs-
iigation, and on motion of Col. Fulker-
Bon, they were required to sit and make
the investigation in Richmond. There
secms no sort Of doubt that an investi-
cation will be made. Senator Fulker-
Son made the point that absenteeism

Already less than one third Of the term
remains and no action has been taken as
10 the public debt. In u number of in
Stances half the Senators were absent
from the city and frequently the Read
justera were almost in minority. We
are glad to say that this charge does not
apply to our Senator and delegates, nor
70 any Of those Of the Southwest, so far
as we are aware. These gentlemen seem
10 be doing their duty aud their dill
