LEGISLATIVE DOINGs.

The Virginia Legislature convened
on Wednesday of last week to fit the
laws to the new Constitution. II
will probably be in session MANY
months, making the third sitting of
the body elected last fall. Members
of the House say they are going to
get down to work and knock into
smithereens the predictions of politi-
cal prognosticators and the news
papers. So mote it be. The Senate.
it is believed, is of like mind.
A number of bills have been in
trodIced, and among those affecting
this section we find the following:
BY Senator Lyle: To have Com
missioners of the Revenue appointed
by Circuit or Corporation courts.
by Mr.. Lyell: For the relief of
county treasurers.
By Mr.. Lawson: For the relief of
W. IL. Perkins, treasurer of Mid.
dlesex.
Senator Barksdale succeeded in
getting his bill through enabling all
veterans who from neglect or acct
dent failed to get their pensions for
this year to do so if applications are
presented to the Auditor before jan
uary 1st.
Mr.. West, member of the House
from Louisa, introduced bill for the
licensing of barrooms, All issue very
much alive now. The West measure
requires that all bars shall be open
and without screens. They are to be
closed after 10 o'clock at night, and
must pay State license of not less
than $4,000, and not less than that
amount nor more than 5000 to the
city or county. Three-fourths of the
holders in the neigh borhood
may prevent anyone from obtaining
license to sell liquor. The bill will
meet with the bitterest opposition
from the liquor trade.
Judge Beverly Crump, of Rich
nond, Senator Henry Fairfax, of
Loudoun, and II. G. Stuart, of Rus
ell, are the Corporation commission
famed by Governor Montague under
he new Constitution.
The illness of Senator George w.
1eCato, of Accomac county, is much
egretted by the embers of the Leg
stature, as well as by many people
4 the State generally. Doctor Le-
jato Is considered one of the safest
lawmakers in the State. 1t is hoped
nat he may soon recover and
nd return again to his seat in the
enate.
