a resolution was adopted in the Senate
yesterday morning thanking the Lieutenant
Governor for the very able and impartial
manner in which he had presided over the
deliberations of that body. The resolution
was unanimously adopted.
James J. Walsh, Esq, of Gaeenfeld, it is
understood by Senators, has made most
acceptable Senate Clerk. Senator Willard,
when speaking of Mr.. Walsh, said he was
the best reader he had heard except Dan
Mscsuley. Senator Johnston was psrticu-
lsrly complin ntsry in his reference 10 the
courtesy and politeness of Mr.. Walsh. 9th

In the closing hours OF the House yester-
day, when resolutions were being presented
with great rapidly, Representative viii.
Jams, of Knox. sent up the following, whioh
was read by the Clerk:

! Quite little breeze was raised in the Sem
ate yesterday when Mr.. Magee introduced 8
resolution thanking tbs members OF the
press for their uniform couriesies during the
meeting of the Legislature. Smith, OF Jen-
Kings moved to except the Journal reporter
| from the resolution, and denounced that
! individual as q liar, scouDdrel and cow
/ ard. The reporter sent a note to Smith,
] saying Substantially that these epithets ap-
| piled more properly TO Smith than 20 him
self, and that the Senator could have the
OPT ortunity OF testing the matter of courage
il be SO desired. A resolution was then in
| troduced TO exclude the re porter from the
floor, but after several speeches on both
! sides tbs whole matter was indefinitely post
poned. The trouble with Smith appears TO
De that he came up to the Capital City with
| a greatly inflated idea OF his importance,
| and since others do not see this in his pecu.
/ liar light he supposss that a combination
has been formed AGAINST him among the re-.
porters. Up to dats his anathemas have
fallen harmlessly upon the fraternity.
