Washington, Dec. 14th. Several
prominent Denaior express surprise
at the action of the House in devoting
so much time to the debate on the

The Senate is ready to enter upon
legislation at once if possible, and

without the necessity be shown. No
hasty action is anticipated. Tho

The Democrats of the California
Legislature have nominated John S.
Hasrer for the unexpired term, and
Thomas Farley for the long term.
They have a good prospect of elect

Democrats, it is expected that enough
will eventually come over to the
Democrats to elect both.
A. little matter of exienses of our
last Legislature incurred upon the
tax-payers is the new apportionment
made by that Radical body of wisdom.
It increased the numlter of members
nearly one-third, and hence the ex

be proportionately greater. That
uii,y was targe enough, and the in
crease is justthat much extra expense.

On Tnesdaj was the hundredth
anniversary of the Boston Tea Party,
which occurred just previously to
the Revolutionary War, and of which
our readers are familiar. But the
American people have had just cause
within the past ten years to have tea,
coffee, sugar, and in fact all kinds of
parties, if they had had the spirit of
our forefathers. They have been
more tax-ridden than ever they were
under King James.
