Srnvorrerp, April 25.—Tho gront dobate of tho session, on tho Railroad bill, was contlnucd in the Bonate this morning, Mr. Dow moving to striko out of tho third soction tho clauso pro- viding that it should not be decmed & aufficiont sxcuss or justification of¢ discrimination thob thoy were mado nt compoting polnta. Wr. Waito mado o nolomn and oxcelluul spooch, in Which ho nrrayed tho argument that tho clauso was 8 dlserimination in favor of tho onat and wost ronds, aud against tho north nud mouth roada ; and that it would rob towns like Bloomington and Quincy of tho compotition thoy had oxpendod millions go secura, ¢ M.

It should ro- main thoro, Hin agricultursl constituonts de- manded such a provision. A skirmish of wit be~ twveon Afr, Voris_oud Mr. Waito onlivenod thia ortion of tho dobato, and thon Mr, Hampton, Pl\ his homely but strong languago, objected to o which was ona of * tho ¢ tho clnugo, Sliminptin 20 o loglelativo dentistry toath " of the bill, and ehould oxtract {he ivory, Mr. Whiting ways cortainly opposed to tho amendmont, and was going ou to romark that ho know of the pucpose of gontlemon to kill tho billy when tho Brunldnt called him to order, and admonishod hiim to stick to the toxt, which ho 313 for tho romatndor of lia fivo minutos. Mr. Archer~gavo tho opinion that. thoy hed bolter atrike oul tho.onfwiing odjourn, than to tako” ot tho most vital prin- ciple of tho bill, Ila ropresonted towna that had voted aid to railronds, buv ho could not ask fa- wvors for thom that wero not oxtonded to other placos, With tho eighth soction’ and that clanso Btrickon out, tho pecplo would denounce the bill o8 % a ghost.” K Tho motion to strike ‘ont was lost—yons, 83 anys, 92, the yoas ‘beiug Chaflold, Dow, Kolioo, yons ‘b Too, MoGrath, Reynolds, Bhiel, and Walte. Ar. Canflold oftered nn pmoudmont in place of the same clauso, loaving it to o jury tosny in ench dago whothor compotition was o Justification of digerimination. Ho thought thoy could trust the people, whilo Ar. Youngblood had an‘iden tho amondment would destroy tho decision inihe Alton caso by allowing compotition to b o dis- crimination,” Tho amendmont was lost by tho samo vote that rojected its predocossor, ° Mr. Starno came next, with an amendment to fngort the words ¢*liko quantitios,” so that spo- cinl rates might certainly be nllowed by tho bill, though ho believed spocial contracts could bo made without his amondmont. Tha nocessity of encouraging manufacturos waa oxpatiated upon by the guntfnmnn from Bnnm\man. but it waa no zmo, a8 tho Sonato rofased his smondmont by 20 0 10. Mr. Sholdon madoe nnother attempt to amend by insorting a diract_provision for spocial Tates. o romarked that it Wwas wrong to put an em- bargo on tho intorests of tho country, but thero was n doterminntion on tho part of the frionde of the bill to push it through undor tho whip and nflx‘ and Mr, Palmor _moved to closo A:0nto, which roused tho indignation of th ‘"’""““A who oallod for tho yeas and_nays, -d dofeato the motion—24 to 1¢—whon Mr. 70ri8 deliverad that familiar spocch, At ti=4 point Mr. Lo moved the Sonate take »+écess, and allow the ovad fhio, Jonnte, il Sonators Iooked a clrcus prevssion then in progross, e * motion, v eovero, but it ~brought the Bonntome rom the windows to their soats to foor Ay, bonahuo, who taok tho ground that tho glouio ehould bo rotained to provent dis- cienntion againet small farmors and small fomna. « M. Loo was on tho other side, bolleving the sholition of spocial ratos would ruin_tho whole- gulo trade of Poorin in grain and in whisky, targo quantitios of which woro shippod. Mr. Sanford took substautislly the asmo ground as Mr. Donahuo, and_thon Mr, Whiting romined the Senate of the condition of the play of Hamlot with Hamlot omitted, and bolioved tho provision they wore trying to omit was tho Hamlot of the bill Mr. Archerdid not beliove thoy should dia- criminato in favor of Peoria whisky, which would be better tarnod into the Illinois River. BIr, Medrath iosisted that whisky was an in- dustry «f tho Biate, and tho farmors wero willing onoug? to sell corn to make it, Thobill without tho proponed amondmont would be an injury to o State. T'he politiciana wore riding “thoe railroad hobby to death, and had no regard for Anything but'to puuder to the publio_clamor, The amondment wvag lgat—29 to 12—and Bec. 8 was adoptod without amendment. Bo were Boc- tions 4 and 6. Mr. Dow {moved to “amend Beo. 8 so that manufacturera might bo allowed to mako special coutracts. Mr. Whiting spolte egainst tho amondmont, My, Varis for, and Burke and Baldwin against, whon tho debate was closad, and tho amendmen ost. Mr. McGrath offorod an amendment allowing farmors spocial rates, which was of course re- jocted, aud thon Mr. Brown submitted sunother proposition rolntive to special rates, which waa wm::!ng timo, the idea having beon repeatedly aten. - Bec. 6 was nqopted. Mr. Whiting moved to discharge tho romainder of the bill from con- sidoration by sections, A motion to adjourn was lost, Mr. Whitings' motlon, requiring two-thirds, was lost. Soo. 7 woa adoptod. Hoctions 8 and 0 having beon ntrickon out yosterdny, Soe. 10 was next in ordar. Mr. Dow moved toamond bys provisothat tho nct should not apply to the transportation of pusgengors, or froight, orcars in transit from Jaces without, througlt, or to plnces within, the tuw‘;dn was lost—26 to 16—and Bec. 11 was ap- proved. Boo, 13, the Inat, was adopted, and the bill or- dored to o third rending. AMr. Donahue moved to suspond tho rules, and vend the bill & third time, aad it was o orderod —vous, 87; nays, 3—McGrath and Leo. Tho 28 nmonded passod—yens, 56 ; nays, 0, A otion waa made to roconsidor tho voto, and nt motion laid on the table. Mr, Dow an- yunood his intention to entor a protest. Reynolds and Willismnon were tho ouly Oook Oounty Bonatora who voted for the bill, the ntl:m belloving it would injure thelr constltu- eatd, IN THE HOUSE. By unanimous cousont, the Houso took np the bill in - tho saftornoon, tho q:us- tion bolng on conourring in the Hen- ato amendments, Mossrs, Hart, Oborly, and Dunhsm made sposchos ngnlnsé coneurrence, and Monars. Alexandor and Pollock on tho other pido, Thers was nothing new or strango in what was said, and it oxcitod no curlosity until Milton Hay took the floor, when the Houso listoned clauso at onco aud | 80 hold and adjudgoed, and It was utter folly for uato havoour legislation under & tnm’}mrnry oxcltoment upon any different theory. aving alwoys so underatood thoso chartors, and be- Joving that the Courts would #o continue to in- torprot, Lo has oxaminod all thoro bills by that tost, and_found oach and all of thom slike ob- iuut‘nnnblo on that scoro, Without undertnking o give the Ianguago gonerally usod in conforring _upon _ theso ~ corporations the right to fix fares and froights by their charters, it would suffico to eny that it was conferred on moat of thom by oxpross terms and without qualification, Now, he did not boliovo that bo- causo tho franchigo had thus boon eonferrod without Hmitation in oxpross words that tho corporatlon was Inwloss in tho oxoralse of it, 1o Tiold, on tho contrary, that tho common law con- dition followed tho grant; that tho franchises conforred woro subject tothe condition thab thoy were (o ho reasonably oxorolsed, an that for ‘an obuse or misuso of tho - fronohison wae subjoct to Judiclal forfoituro, o utterly deniod the powor of tho Logislaturo, undor tho guimo of morely providing romedics for abusos, to mo provide a8 oithor to uttorly anniliilata tho franchiso con= forrod’ of fixing tolla by tho corporation, or {0 so cripplo its bonoficial oxerciso as to rondor it worthless. Wo cannot admit and rocognizo tho oxistenco of the charter contract, and n¢ the samo timo so legislato as to impair it. It tho obuses onnnot bo romodled without nnnibilating the contract, wo shonld fio at. tho matter _loglenlly, and first divest thom of the franchise. The eponker dosired hin lnnglln o to bo undoratood nn applicable particularly to tho franchiso conforred in respoct of flxing tolls and fares. ‘Whero the oharter wns silont, there was room for common law implieations, but for nono whore tho contrnct was oxpross, for pono nt lenst but that slrondy statod,—tho con- dition that tho franchisos wara not to bo abuaod, o did not, and could not, construo tho ahartor 15 conforring o moro right to_charge faros and follo upon n quontum moruit, ook and ovory muoh oliatgo, whothor for s pastongor OFa Phipmont of fralght, to bo roviowod by s jury, and, {f not snctioned by o Jur&', to bo fho occation of heavy penaltics.” Could any sonsiblo man bellove that'a railroad could be’ oporatod upon such o principlo? Such was the the- ory snd rovisions of this _bill. It w8, inhin{u jgmont, moro objectionablo thanany othor that had boen prosentod in all the billa framod upon tho articlo in tho Constitution ro- qnulxlng tho Legislature to fix tho rates, Al- ¢! more plausiblo, mora practicable, nud would provo moro reasonnblo than this bill, Tho Hild- Fup bill, although ho thought that oqually at fault in a constitutional pointof viow, lad at lonst the rodeoming trait in it that it furnished rulo undor which Railrond .Companics would find. ot least somo protootlon. It was truo that by that bill the franchiso to fix froights waa talon from railroad companics and givon to tho Rnilrond Commissionors and a jury, and whon betweon thom thoy had fixed n Tule, that was to bo n protection to the Com- pany for o year; —but undor this Dbill ovon if Sec. 818 rotained, it will bo soon that railrond compnnios have no protection, Juries mny disrogard the prima facio rulo of the Com- ‘misalonors oven, and_inflict their penaltios in thoir own good pleasure. Nor does their rulo afford any proteotion from tho civil sults = for = troblo damagos provided in tho sixth section, Tho firat soction of tho bill dofines oxtortion to be the charging or rocloving moro than a ronsonable rate for frolghts or faros, and by the fourth sec- tion tho Company is subjocted fo = fino not less than $I,000 nor mora than 85,000 for the first offonse, 8(;,000 to 10,000 for second offonse, §10,000 to $20,000 for third offenso, and for ovory subsaquontoffonso 625,000 Whothor the rates charged aro reasonablo or unreasonsblo is 10 bo dotermined; whothor ths prosecu- tion Do for tho ponaltios or tho sult Do o clvil one for treblo damagos by a jury. Tho practical offoot of this is (0 take from the Com- Pony the right to fix folls and to confor that i . But littlo roflection fv’gx‘:ltdu E"::qdr"fi for us all to under- gtand that the faren and tolls tation company shonld bo fixed b; o .. If tho right ia not in tho Pt oration it should bo proscribod by some au- poration It avlo of giving a rulo by il o tho timo the chorgo is mnde and tho toll is paid it may bo known _ deflnitely and cortain that tho toll is logal and payablo, Now, if tno powor is token® from the uompnn{, ought not some substitnto to bosupplied. by which they may at lonst know how they muy escapo ponaltics oven if forbidden tho bonofleial oxorcise Of thoiv franchise? Do you supply them with this subatituto by the provisions of this bill 2 . Tlow are they to guees the rates that will carry thom without tho probubilities of penaltios through the jury ordonls? Thelr only safoty will bo to, fix thoir ratos 6o low that no jury can possibly find thom unronsonablo, It " bo.. obsorved that under the provisions of this bill, o railroad com- pany extending through ton counties may bo suod in oach of tho countios at tho same time for diffaront alleged offenses, as deflnod by this Inw, butyet upon gubstantiailwy tho samo fucts, ond 'the juries in six of tho countics may find tho rates roasonable, and ronder vordicts for the company 3 and yol," if tho jurios in tho four other countios shall, aa thoy mmay, find tho ratos unreasonable, tho company may be fined in sume nmounting in tho aggrogato to $100,000, and yot stand ncqmlgud by o majority of the juries to whom tho sumo facts have boen submitted. Ifow is uniformity to be brought about by the verdicts of juries? How o rulo oatablished? Will it bo said” that by ap- peals to tho Bupreme Court to sot aeide vordicts hat Court ocan establish or Dbring about somo uniform rule. Not at_all. The Court in poworless in tho promiscs. If tho ten verdicts woro all appoalod, the Court, go far s tho ver- dicts are concorned, underwoll established rules, would have to confirm all those find- ing tho rates reasonablo and those find- ing them unrossonablo, That Court itself hins said that this at bost is but & moro matter of opinion, » moitor about which jurios moy hon- estly differ, whero the facts are the same ovon, and that undor well-catablishod_rules they will not interfere to disturb tho verdict, alihough tha Court itpolf would have found difforontly from the jury. It will thus be ecen that thoro can bo norulo catablished by tho ever-varying vordiots of jurios, and when wo coneidor that, in tho absonco of nrulo, thoso railrond compa- nios aro all the whilo hunplnfi] upon thomselven unnumberod ponalties from their uttor inavility to guess by what rulo to bo governed, so s to bo safo, who will dare say that tho offoct, and unnocossary effact, of this is not to offectually Impair that provision of their chartors giving .&fim tho oxprosy nuthority to fix their own . The spenker hore wont on to illustrate the clemonts that would entor into thoe caloulation by s jury in fixing ratos, and illustrato how jiirios might honostly diffor on all and oxch of thoso difforont items {hat .en- torod into tho considoration of the question of reasonnblo ratos, and domonstrated tho uttor hopelossnoss of uniformity in jury verdicts upon the quastion of ratos. Tho Houso rojostod tho Honato amendmont ptriking out tho eighth soction, by 83 to 47, and the amondinont striking out tho ninth section by 80 to 87. The bill goos Dok to tho Bonafo, which, Judging from tho ox- prossion of Bonators, will not yocodo. A confor~ ence committeo seoms inevitablo, Mr, Hoy's specch has shaken tho confidenco of many on the bill, but {t is tho best that can bo dono af thislato duy. AMENDMENTS TO THE REVENUE LAW. Touso bill 505, which pasaed tho Houso, is in- tondod to smond the Rovonuo law, A provision rolieving bankers from making onth to their re- turns was stricken out, na thore was somo doubt in tho Houso n8 to whether it was safo to trust bankers, Another olause which relioved dopoa- its in snvings banks from taxation, as part of tho agsota of tho bank, waa also rejected, Ko that tho taxation of dopoal‘a romaing &8 now,—they aro toxed twico, a8 part of the agsota of the banlk and ag part of tho assots of the dopositor. Of courso the bauk deduota its part of tho tax from the interest duo the depositor and thoreby tho dopositor pays tnxes twico on the snmo monoy. - ‘Cho section providing that Tronsurors of counties should be ox-offlcio County Oolloctors ‘was drawn out, Tho bill as pagsed re-cnacts tho omeorgoncy act passod at the beginning of tho sossion extonding tho timo of tho Colleotors to witl marked nitention to & radi- el and origingl roviow of the bill, which, boing the eritlelsm of the most powoerful miud, and opinlon of the ablest ]nw{ar in the Goneral Aflfiumhlg 18 valu- &blo and timoly.

If Lo was right in his opinions, all the bills upon tho subjeat hitherto prouonted, as well as tho ononow under considor- ation, wero based upon n faulty theory, and nono of thom could recoivo his voto, Ho hold tho chartors givon by our Legialaturcs to thoso cor- orations to bo contracts, and that any logisla- lon which either annulled or ossonfially im- paired them was fruitlesn and unconstitutiopal ; that thoy were witbin the protoction of the Con- stitution of tho United Btates, Ie would not consume the timo of tho House by any argument now demonstratiug thoso chartors to be con- treats, It would suflica to sav all of our Qqurta makoe final sottloment from March 20 instead of Tob, 28 as horotofore, and tho County Colloctors must malko final settlomont with the Auditor on April 16 instead of March 5, as _herotoforo, In caso of appenl from County to Cirouit Courts, o bond for twico tho smount of costa must bo given. ‘Whe provislon that a boud for the oamount of tho tax shnll bo given wed rojectod bocauso n Cook County Court has recently decided it would bo oquiva- lont to ‘“purchasing justice,” and jusatice should not bo on enloin this Hiato.
