Al Extra Sess Ion.

A good deal has been said Of late about
the propriety Of calling au extra session oil
the Legislature. The question has been
extensively discussed both pro and con by
the pr-ss Of the State. A heavy prcssurr
has been brought to bear npon acting
Governor McEney to induce him to call an
extra session. The position NJ the Cover
nor ia. five understand il Alright, that he
/, oppo~ed 10 calling au extra session, bnt
will do 40 should he be convinced thar u
is absolutely and imp-ratirrly necessary
Various reasons have been urged why an
extra session should be called, the most
forcible and tenable u which ia, that the
appropriations for drfraying the expenses
of III. government will all be exhausted
with the close Of the present year. The
next regular session Of the Legislature
will not convene till the second Monday IN
| Nav. ls-2, which will leave an interval OF
! fnnr months. during which time the CON
.,;t,tional officers Of the government will
have TO work without drawing their pay
This. in our opinion, will prove only n
slight inconvenience. The question here
arises. /. il better that III" on should
suf1rr this inconvenience and delay, al
that the Stat. should incur the expenses
of an extra session Of the Legislature
which would. in all probability amount
10 twenty or twenty-five thousand dollars
W. are inclined G. the opininn that !
wonld he decidedly better that the ofh'ial
should suffer this Inconvenience rathr
than that the State should incur the ex
pruscs Of an extra session. We feel sati-
fed that the machinery If the State govern
, mrut will move on smoothly, notwithsian
ding no provisions are made for the pay
ment Of our officials.
= The action Of the acting Governor !
this matter has been wise and proper an
, shows that he has the interest of his pee
\ pie at heart. If an extra session hcoIn,
an absolute aud imperative necessity,
I course the Governor shonld not hesitate
q convene the Legislature. and we are safi
y fed that when such contingency ari-
= the G"trrnor will be found equal to Il
e emergency.

government can bc run frum January Ia
May, lSS2. without calling al extra >rs-

We are grateful for the efforts of the
Morchousc Clarion to give us aid in the
destruction Of rats. But as wind and
words Kill no rats no good results from The
gush Of the Clarion. The poison sent us
by Wilder a Walker, Of Vienna, has set
tied the hash Of the prstifrrous vrrmiu.
Now We want a disinftctant. So many
have died in the walls, under the floor and
in their holes that the place emits the
odor of charnel house. The medicine is
surely rough on rats"

Harmon, the Insurance swindler, on trial
in Shreveport, conducted his own d"fense.
His speech, says the local Of the Standard,
WAS eloquent and appropriate. Indeed
the Standard chsraeterizcs it as one Of the
most eloquent, earnest and pathetic ap-
peals ever listened to in this or any other
court room. He requested continuance
Of his csse, but when the District Attorney
offered to enter nolle prosequi, which
Hsrman knew would have the effect to
send him to Tennessee, he changed his
time and WAS ready for trial. He seems
10 be most accomplished villain.
