10 NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY THE STATE CAPITAL | ALCOHOL DENOUNCED. WORK OF HALF THE SESSION. Number of Bills Introduced and Passed. Report in Favor of Raising Eni- grants’ Head Money. . DISCUSSION IN THE SENATE. ALBANY, March 6, 1874, No bill of any general or special importance has as yet passed both houses of the Legislature. The umber introduced, trom the beginning of the ses- fion up to this time is, in the Senate, $26; in the | Assembly, $12, Of these 115 have passed the As- sembly only and sixteen have passed the Senate only, The number passed both houses and sent to the Governor for his signature is fifty-five, of which thirty-three originated in the Assembly and twenty-two in the Senate. The most important of those sent to the Governor were:— A bul to authorize the extension of time for the collection of taxes in several towns (and certain cities) of the State. A bill to authorize the formation of corperations to secure camp grounds and other property con- nected therewith for the use of the Methodist Church, A bill compelling county treasurers to deposit promptly in banks selected by county boards of supervisors the money placed in their hands for taxes, &c. A bili allowing two religious corporations to con- Bolidate as one. A bill amending an act incorporating the New York Dry Dock Company. A bill in relation to animals (Bergh’s). A bill incorporating the New York Ctub, A vill to confirm the oiticial acts of John Meredith Read, Jr., as Commissioner of Deeds tor the State oi New York in the Republic of France. A bill amending “An act to authorize corpora tions to Change their names,” making it lawful for any incorporated company or society or associa- tion, excepting banks and banking associations, to apply beiore any General Term of the Supreme Court of the Jnaicial Department In which the association shail be situated, for an order to au- thorize if to assume any corporate name. A bill to define and punish the obtaining of em- ployment in positions of trust upon false tokens and representations. All the rest are bills chiefy concerning minor country interests. The foregoing résumé will give an idea of how much business has been so far transacted. Only one bill has been returned by the Governor without his signature—that to incor- porate the New York Club—and as there are many more Of a like special character we may anticipate, unless the committees report adversely upon them, & large crop of vetoes. The calendar of the ses- sion is not as heavy as at this time last year, nor Bre there any measures om hand of as much im- portance. THE SUB-COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE ‘will come into active play next week and lend its aid to help in clearing the calendar of such minor bills as are not worth occupying the attention of the whole House in committee. Speaker Husted deserves notice for the electric rapidity of his manner as presiding officer of the Assembly. He places a high estimate on the value of time, and rattles of the business before him as if the Day of Judgment stood like a round period at the end of the hun- dred days’ session, While there is little to complain of in the conduct of affairs in both houses, and while there has been nothing like the extravagant waste of time that characterized for- mer sessions of the Legislature, the committees, with the exception of the Judiciary of Senate and House, have been criminaliy siow in acting on bills referred to them. So slow and inactive have they proved that plenty of rumors fly about that the members of these committees are engaged in | corrupt negotiations over certain bills. The fel- lows who are not fortunate enough to de on the committees that liave a monopoly ol any fat jobs fret and fume all the day long. THE BLACK HORSE CAVALRY &re Savage and gloomy. They are out of fodder all this session. They are mad and hungry enough to Charge the wall of China. They complain of the Committees keeping them out of their supply of vats, and very soon they intend to bring the of fending committees up with a rouud turn. Roard bills are getting burdensome, money is getting scarce, and legislation, in tue opinion of many, is a Doliow and painful sarc: BILLS IN THE ASSEMBLY. Third reading and passage of bills took up the morning session of the Assembly. Among bills in- troduced prior to adjournment was oue by Mr. Wagstaf? throwing open the College of the City ot New York to ail male students, in piace of being confined, as at present, to those who have passed through the common schools of the city. <A bill by Mr. Leake, in relation to saving banks, provides that it shall be law!ui for the directors or trustees Of any savings bank in the city and county of New York to keep their available funds, or any part of them, in any bank or trust company organized un- der the laws o! the State or United States, but the amount so kept shall not exceed twenty per cent of toe ieee up capitai. Mr. Wight introduced a bill in in regard to jarors, providing chiefly thateach jury year com- | mence on the ist of October, and every ‘ually serving twelve days, who shall have been discharged by the Court, shalt be exempt from jury duty for the remainder of the year. THE NOMINATION FOR POLICE COMMISSIONER. The nomination of Andrews tor Police Commis- sioner is not tuo well received by the republicans in the Legislature. They wauted another man who was more oi the type of Henry Smith, and whose lobbying practices here were of a sweet and familiar character. To appease the disappoint- ment it will vecome necessary to remodel the Board of Police and have a new deai ail round, THE HEAD MONEY QUESTION. The Senate Committee on Commerce and Navi- gation favorabiy reported this morning the bill in- creasing tle head money on emigrants from $1 50 to $2. Senator Ganson dissented from tne ma- jority of the committee—Messrs. Robertson, King and Booth—first, on the grounds that the levying of SON BC- head money on emigrants was unconstitutional; | and, second, that the increase was uncalied for, a3 @ third of the entire fund derived from the head Money was consumed in salaries. MINORITY REPRESENTATION IN CORPORATIONS. A bill was introduced by Mr. Tobey, in the Sen- ates providing for minority representation in cor- porations, each stockholder to have the right to ast Only One Vote Jor one trustee on each share jd by lim, and any person who shall receive over @ tenth of the entire Dumber Of Votes cast shall be considered elected. Any person whio shall receive two-tenths shail be cailed a trustee of the second | class, and so on, aud be shail have one vote in the co sor each one-tenth cast for him at his elec- an. THE APPROPRIATION BILL IN THE SENATE. The Senate was occupied all day discussing the Appropriation bill, A motion of Mr. Jacobs w strike out the appropriation for the Binghamton Anegbriate Asylum was lost. A long debate iol- Jowed on the appropriation for the Executive Department, Mr. Jonnson, Mr. Wood, republican aspiran’ ior Governor, fight+ phot retain the figure ‘regress Was reported and the Senate then ad- jouracd till Monday evening. THE QUARREL ABOU The Van. Nort bill is not disposed of In fact, the fget nas only begun. It is the old avimus be- tween Van Nort and Green transferred fiom the Boardef Apporuionment to the Leyisiature. The champion of Van Nort in the Senate is Woodin and that of Green 1s Wood: the difference is *twixt tweedledum and tweedidee. Both Sen- ators are republican. Spoils, spoils, spolis, make the animating impulse of the fight.

This morning a deegation of fifteen gentlemen, representing the “Philadel. | phia Sabbath Association,” called at Ms office, | Who Were introduced by one of the’ most eminent | lawyers in town, Mr. Isaac Hazelharst. | Mr. Hazelhurst said:—~It is hardly necessary for Me to introduce these gentlemen to you as your friends of order and of law. They bring with them a petition forty yards long, signed by 4,000 persons, for the enforcement of the Sunday law. They rep- resent a force, a moral force, which it is well for an executive officer to possess. Ihave told them | of your efforts to enforce the laws, and that you | | | were merely waiting for the decision of the Court, and that you wouid then proceed to enforce the | law as laid down by said Court itself.” | The Mayor answered:—*You are right. That is exactly what I intend to do; 1 have been waiting | for two years for a decision of the Court, buat 1 wilt execute the law without fear, favor or par- | tiallty. When one of the delegation present questioned | him concerning the closing of the cigar stores, tae Mayor replied that he did not tuink tt would be as hard to close the cigar stores as it would be to shut up the taverns, because i: would be much easier to detect the sale of a cigar than the sale of agiass of hquor. The Mayor said pretty much the | same concerning the coniectionery stores. Mr, George W. Mean then said:—“Lhere are a | number among us who worked hard and voted to | secure your re-election, We were condemued 43 | being inferior temperance men, because it was said that you were in league with all the run sellers in the Commonweaith; but I taought that your election tor the second term would introduce new reforms, and I am sure that 1am not mis- | taken.” Mr. Hazelhurst returned thanks for the pleasant way in which they had been received by the Mayor, and then the delegation withdre' ; ‘The petition was then unrolled ‘and read as fol- | OWS -— | pscribers, citizens of Philadelphia, would nt that we are aggrieved by s under which we live which portion of our fellow cit ordinary ayocations on the i others, and by far the greater num- » things would be liable to prosecution Are we not irec?

It is maintained by the fmenas of the movement for a temperance reformation in this city, through | Teligious influences, that it is becoming estab- lished, and they propose to continue the Dio Lewis movement. Sensational street work is | sbandoned; but thatis all. The women engaged | in the movement have never been so earnest as | | now, and the doubt and hesitation which marked | | their early conierences have given way to a hoiy | enthustasm and zeal which 1s in itsel! an augury of success. Those who have looked for sensations will be disappointed; but those who know most of the purposes aud leclings of the active workers | in the movement are more sanguine than | ever that a genuine, heart-touching reform is to be successfully inaugurated. The Executive Committee have decided to prepare and circulate | pledges for various classes of persons implicated i the liquor trafic, and to accompany the presen- | | tation of these with personal solicitations and | warnings and continued prayer in private and in | the public meetings. The work of dratuing the pledge was confided to a sub-committee. One topic considered by the women has been the use of alcoholic liquors by Women themselves, either as medicines or in cooking. The use of wine at the communion tabie was also condemned, several women speaking of incidents coming under their own observation of its unfortunate effect upon re- formed inebriates. A pledge of clergymen against | this has been suggested. A Move Made in Lockport, N. ¥. \ Lockport, N.

Dr. Weakley, the wife of Presiding Elder Weakley, of the Cincinnati Con- | ference, and Mrs. J. Harry Thomas, a handsome | young married lady, marched upon the 300 bar- | rooms Oi Dayton, through a drenching rain and sloppy streets, When the columns debouched from the English Lutheran church, after morning | | prayers, the commotion inthe streets was intense. Mrs. Weakley’s column moved up Jefferson street to Fischer’s, and marched directly to his door, which was shut in their faces, when the women | dropped on their knees in the sloppiness and | began their devotions.

After the usual exercises Mr. Beecher said:— The whole human family, without exception, has developed a strong desire to know something Of the other life.

The Chris- tian methods select this scheme; they select things men consider best and group them together and affect the heart and reason through the imagina- ton. If you attempt to answer te questions that spring up, you find little to answer. For instance, every mother wants to know, “Will I know my baby in heaven?” will friends be wnat they are on earth, and then what do they uo there?
