Quinn's bill to punish wife-heaters by gub]lo whipping, was roported upon unfavora- Iy, and tho House concurrod inn tho roport by o ristog voto of 86, being a mnjority of tho Houso, br. Quinn moved to roconsider the vote, and Mr. Marrison spolo in favor of whipping bru- tal mon who ili-treated the women thoy had sworn to love, honor, and cherish, After somo -palavor, & motion to table tho motion to recon- sider was lost, 73to 43. On tho motion to re- :eonsider, tho yoto wau 03 to 44, DMIr. Bhaw was .opsoaud to going back to tho dark ages. It was bnd enough to have wives benten by brutal husbands, and very likely the eamo wives would ba the first to inter- -oedo againat tho oruclty and disgraco of hnving tho fathors of thelr children publicly disgraco: hfilwhip&xln&; Mr. Quinu_desired to have tho bill mado the spocial order. Imprisonment of tho husbaod punished the wifo and childron a8 well, but an a) wllcntlau on tho opidormis with & 8 rawhide would give him something to think about and remembor. *‘ Angols would smilo” on tho act and women would rejoice.

Tiee Bonato bill allowing eriminala to testify in their own bohalf twas roported favorably to the EauuNlnd ordored to o second roading. o YETO. The Govunor sent his maiden veto to the Sen- sto, returning, without his approval, tho bill pro- vidiug for the cloction and qualification of Jus- ticoi of tho Peace. Hiw reasons are, that tho bill postpones the election of Justices one yoar from April, 1878, in countics under town- ehip zation, and 0o In tho countios of Edgnr, Efugham, ond Cumborand the torms of Justices oxpire In_April, 1878, and an . extension of their terms being unconstitutional, -thesa countics would be without Justicea for a .yonr, as thero would bo no law for an clection to il vacancies, THE TIQUBE JURY DILL ‘was on ita third reading when My, Dunham mov- wd to rocommit it, the object boing to kill the section providing that it should not be n cause of challenge that o juror had read in the news- apors an account of tho commission of tho orimo, or had formed an DYi"inn based upon rumor or nowspaporstatomonts about the truth of wlhioh ho had expressed no opinion, if he would stato upon onth that ho could fuirly aud impar- tially rendor a verdlet in accordanco with tho law and tho evidenco, and the Court be entigfled of tho truth of tho statemont. The motion pro- vailod—47 to 46—whon Mr, Bradwell statod that they conld not conviot criminale in Chicago un- dor the prosent act, and moved to recousider the motion to recommit, which prevailed—55 to 43. Mr. Quinn bolieved 1t was o contrivanco to facll- itato the conviction of criminals, whother gullty or innooent. That criminals could not bo cou- victed in Chicago was uot the fault of tho low, but of the Prosecuting Attornoys. Such was tho deolalon of tho Bupreme Court, Mr. Hay arguod tho necossity of having in- tolligonco upon juries, and tho Logislature was slmply oxorcising its Y’nwor to rogulate tho modo ©of nscortaining whether jurors were impartial, The bill didnot cnmum']flnm partial jurica, + Mr. Dunham contonded that the Conatitution ovided for an Imsnrtlnl trinl, which he bo- levod impoeeiblo under the section. RMr. Rountros argned that it was possiblo under the clnugo to scours an impartial juror, his Impartiality being a question of fact to bo msogrtalned by oxamination. Mr, Bradwell belioved it was Impossible to got twolve intolligont gontlomon to try s case who liad not read the papers, They always read the papers. LART, TRONT.
