Massachusetts, GOO : Connecticut, 401

of $,113, and a larger ration in propor

The Legislature, whose' session is now
practically at an und, has done a .great
deal of work. Tbere were 1,157 bills out
uie Xiouso caieuuar uu ijvwwu vucocu-t
ate calendar, and these'have all been da-
y considered and passed upon, if' not in
both Houses, yet ' in ono' or the other. I
The consideration bestowed on these bills J
in the committee room eutailed more la-1
bor than their discussion in the House. J
Th committees have performed a creatl
deal of work. The Code was considered J
section by section, chapter 4 by chapter,
and amended here and there, ai occasion,!
seemed to require. To do this work
telligently, required the close attention J
of a committee of twenty, . J
The bill concerning the Agiicultural J
Denartment also received the considera-1
tion of a large committee for many days, j
and ro also the revenue bill and the
school law. In addition, the railroad
bills. r.rovidinff for the completion of the
Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad J
t .
and the W. N. C. Railroad, were so im
portant as to consume a great deal ef
time. When we consider the short dura-1
tion of the session, it is really noteworthy I
that so much heavy legislation has been I
perfected. Probably 500 bills have been
passed. How many of these are of gen- J
eral importance it is too early to estimate
but doubtless the general law has been J
less changed than usual by separate bills I
because proposed changes were engrafted I
on the text of the Code. A large majori-lare
ty pf the bills are local. This is as it J
should be. The people send their repre-
sentatives to legislate for them and ex-
pect their local needs to receive atten
tion.
The adoption of the Code will settle
the law for some time to come, and we I
trust that it will not be amended so free-1
lv as has heretofore been the case with
other revisals. The law can never be
made to conform to the wishes and views
of all arsons, for all neoole will not
t i ' i.
fixed law. even if l in some asoects it ig
not free from critieism. Other important
matters are the election of two additional
inRtla for each townhin. th it-disti ict-
ing of the State, the reorganization of the
Board of Agriculture, and the election of
a United States Senator. The work of
the session has been well
done, aim we
think the people will have,but little fault
to find either with anything that has
been done or that has been left nndone.
The general result has been to the ad van
tage of the State and to the people, and
wkile it is not possible for any Legisla
ture to escape adverse criticism, yet we
feel every assurance that the people will
approve and heartily endorse the action 1
of this General Assemblv. To be sure

expired ierm oi a iew weeKs. lie is a
rich specimen of a "reform" Republican
representative. Mr. J. R. Randall, in his
last very grapic and interesting letter in
the . Augusta Chronicle, describing the
closing scenes in the Senate thus phono
graphs Tabor : .
i "Mr. Tabor, after having gone the
rounds of his associates begging for their
autographs much to their disgust
stretched himself in achair and soon dozed
off with his shagyjiead thrown back and
cavernous mouth wide open. He looked
like some hideous monster washed ashore
from some convulsed sea. He will step
down aud out to-day as the most despised
creature that ever disgraced the Ameri
can Senate."
j His recent divorce from his wife, de
scribed as an excellent woman, and his
.marriage in Washington to another wo
man who has a husband in the West, is
a most disgusting and shameful event.
President Arthur attended the marriage
and Mr. Randal) says 'finade a prominent
exhibition of himself,"
Among other things that happened at
the close of the Senate was a most scath
ing philippic on Attorney General Brews-!
ter by Senator Van Wyck, a ooqscien
tous Republican who has the boldness to
speak his convictions. Don Cameron
tried to bully him' for "going for" Brews-?!
ter, and he advanced with a very threat
ening attitude, but some of his frisnds
interfered and led him off. It is said
Don was "in his cups." Van Wyck did
net take water but reiterated his state
ments. Mrs. Van Wyck, in delicate Uealth,
was in the gallery and was very njuch
excited at the scene.
Mr. Randall, who Is something of a
protectionist, says of the conduct of the
Republicans in the tariff matter :
'The tariff bill was passed in a way
that cannot be approved and hardly jus
tified ; but it was any port in a storm for
the Republicans, aud when brought to
baythey do uot hesitate at the machln
ery used for gaining their point. The
Democrats, pending the final passage of
the bill in the Senate, did the talking:
the Republicans did the voting."
jlle says Vance in a ten minutes' speech
was "pungent aud effective." Refeiriug
to the failure to pass the River and Har-?
bor bill, Mr. Randall says it "was sacii
ficed to Republican exigencies." He poiut
edly says: . .
Millioust)f dollars have- been added
to tne-'pensions, but tlie rivers and. har
bors of the South and West must pay
the penalty of extravagance. The Vau
