was reported by w bias or democrats, he would give such a bill his hearty support. The committee should at least attempt to

asree, before an additional member added.

Mr. Osbom of L, disclaimed any intention of stirring up party strife in his remarks yesterday afternoon. Rut he wonlJ camion members against the des'gn? of ihose who are continually crying out against party, whilst their conduct belied their professions. The obvious intent of ihe proposition to add another member was, (nolh withstanding the disclaimers to the contrary,) to subserve party purposes. The motion to add an additional member was then withdrawn. Several hills were then read and oidered to be engrossed.

The bill respecting executions, and ma

king them returnable 180 and 120 days

when issued from Circuit Courts and jus

tices of lhe peace, was taken up. It was moved to strike out the sixth section,

(which would leave executions to be gov

erned by existing laws.) and lost ayes 41. noes 47. The question then occurred

on the amendment reported by the committee, w hich provides that execution shall be issued against the defendant in the county where plaintiff resides, and, if

plaintiff makes afftlavit that defendant has not property enough in 6uch county, then

executi'-n may be issued directed to tne sheriff of any county where defendant oi

defendants may have properly, withrnthe State, &c. A long discussion arose on the merits of the bill, in which Messrs. Osbom, of L.. Stapp, Vandeveer, Daker, Thompson, and Cox, participated1.

Mr. Stapp said no law operating upon contracts already made, would, according to the decisions of the Courts, be valid, for the doctrine is, thu the law existing at

J the time, is "a part of the contract." He

would b3 glad to see a law orawn up regulating the remedy under fut tire contracts, and adapted lo the changed condition of
