A SIGNIFICANT COMPLAINT.

The Chicago Times asserts that the Leg
islature of Illinois has for several years
been deteriorating in quality, and that at
last it has become distinct nuisance in
steadIof benefit to the State. It says :
"That body OF collective ignorance and
" folly called the Legislature of Illinois has
sc for the space of three months furnished
=" a continuous commentary on the useless
" ness and the mischievousness, which is
"worse than uselessness, of the so-called
estate Legislatures. The Times proceeds
to express its deliberate opinion that all
State Legislatures have become useless, or
worse, and that this has naturally and in
evitably resulted from the elevation of the
central government under the operation of
the national principle. 1t is true that if
this were entirely correct we ought to
find in Congress the superior ability which
according to the theory of our contempt
rary has been driven out of State politics,
and that this increase in Congressional
ability has somehow escaped notice. But
we submit that the decline of the
Illinois Legislature may be attributed with
even greater FEASIBILITY to other causes,
and that the Times itself indicates what
those other causes are. 1t thus describes
the Illinois Legislature at is body
containing, in either branch, not one man
" of frst-rate abilities, and very few men
of even average abilities. 1t is made up
for the most part OF cross-road politicians
