SENATE.

The morning session of the Senate was
principally consumed IN debating the
State railroad bond question, which came
up pending the adoption of Senator
Crooks resolution for the appointment of
a committee to whom should be referred
all matters pertaining to the bonds. Sew
eral amendments were offered and a great
variety of opinions were expressed, but
the resolution finally passed in its origin
al form. When the Senate was not in
session the members discussed the NOM
ination by the United States Senatorial
caucus. All appeared to be pleased with
the nomination of Mcmillan, and many
were the expressions of surprise that the
Pioneer Press should have sacrificed Sec
rotary Ramsey upon the altar of its petty
resentment at the loss of the postoffice,
and amazement at the lack of acuteness
in not being able to see what the result
would be before 1t was everlastingly too
late. One grave and reverend Senator
proposed the purchase and presentation
of bottle of soothing syrup to Yosef.
