The time honored process Of bringing
in bills is thus described by the author
Of "A Diary Of the Salisbury Parlia-
ment:'
The speaker, holding in his hand .
long list Of notices given the day before.
calls the names Of the members in sue
eession. MIR MurphyF' calls the speak
er. Mr. Murphy raises his hat, where
upon the speaker says, The question is
that leave be given to bring in bill
to"-and he reads description of the
bill of which Mr.. Murphy has given no
lice.
Who is prepared to bring in this
bill?" asks the speaker. Then Mr.. Muir
ply rises and reads out the names of
members who indorse his bill, and the
speaker goes on to the next on the list.
As the speaker approaches the end of
the list members who are to bring in
bills struggle for places at the bar Of the
house. The speaker calls on the member
whose name heads the list. He makes
his way through the throng at the bar
and advances toward the clerks table,
holding piece OF folded foolscap IN ms
hand.
This is understood to be the bill he is
bringing in. but there is nothing within
but blank sheet. deliberately Endorsed
on the outside with the title. The text
OF the measure will be deposited in the
bill Office at some future convenient date.
The clerk. carefully concealing his
knowledge of the fiction, respectfully
takes charge of 1.-The bill, recites its title
which is the first reading Of the bill
and then asks, Second reading
Eighth of May" says the member.
Bill read second time Sth of May" says
the clerk. Read second time Sth of
May" echoes the speaker, and the mem
her disappears behind the speakers chair,
aud SO on through the hundred.

Some of the doings in the glorious state
of Kansas during its history may find cx-
cuse in the climatic conditions of the coun-
try. Senator Ingalls, in his graphic manner
describes the effects of these conditions as
follows;

the elevation Of the land produce nervous
exaltaticn, which creates enthusiasm, move
usent. energy, push. ,igor. and 'go;' by
