The hmi so has passed a resolution

there seem but little use to provide any
other limit.
The memorial to congress usking it

was warmly contested. On a motion lo

A bill was Introduced to compel mill
ers to put IW nutinda of floor in a sack,
but the legislature did not see fit to in
terfere with the long established custom
which makes l!)fl pounds a barrel and
one-fourth of a barrel or 40 pounds a
sack, so the bill that pussed make 40 '
pounds a sack.
Gecr's bill relating to inclosurea panned
be could not attord to make that an is
sue and defeat the charter on that
ground, (inly Ir. Carll remained oismly

time was quit squally finally euded
with no apiwreiit bad feelings.
On Wednesday the committee made
a favorable report and it passed the sen
ate without further tribulation, and the
same evening, the house being at work
on charter bills, il wa taken up and
passed. On of the chief objectors ia
reported to have said that if it passed he
would get the governor to yeto it, but
that is not likely lo happen, and if it
did tue veto would be tamed down.
