The close of the session Of 1856 reminds
us that the Legislature has failed to pass
several important measures which we
have advocated; but this fact does not
hinder us from according to that highly
respectable body Of gentlemen the merit
OF having passed as few Objectionable
bills as any Legislature ever assembled
at the Capitol.
In addition to its commendable course
in framing laws, the Legislature has
killed and buried countless hundreds of
mischievous bills and amendments,
thereby performing one Of its most i'm
portant duties in most satisfactory
manner.
A more industrious body of law.
makers we never expect to see. The
attendance on both branches during the
entire session has been exceptionally
good, and but little of the time or the
members has been consumed in other
than the public business
The good habits OF the members de
serve especial concentration. Sobriety
has been the code OF their conduct,
without an exception, so far as we have
knowledge or information, and there
have been no disgusting scenes on ti,s
a on Of eiaher House caused by drum
kenness, such as have been witnessed &C
casionaliy in former years.
