The Mlouso of Hefa:;," as it has Ion? existed in many of the older States, i a vast improvement upon tho jail and th) penitentiary; but within the last fuw jean great progress hss been mado in elovntinf tho sjitetH, and results havo been obtained in tfci icform aud educution of juvcuilo offenders that nro truly wonderful. Tho introdictiou of tho 'Ucfortn School is in many rcreet a great improvement upou the old ilou'C of, llcfufcc, and has bucu attended witriasuccuiTihichitwould be hsrd to believe, were it not attested by indubitable evidence. DainabasC. Holls and Charles F. CofCo, distinguished members of tho Society of Friends, have bestowed much attention and labor tipon the subject, and have addrevfct'd to mo valuable communications which I herewith lay leforo )ou, together with reports and documents setting forth the character and opcrutiona of the ltelorm b'chools tf New Voik, Uhio and Illinois. Ai tbo iuI led U ono of no ordinary ms'nitudc; and tcjuircs for its full understanding much thought and itm-tdigatiuu; and aa the aystcui you may adopt will be Intruded tiot fcr a year only, but for all time, and thould bo wisely considered, I recommend that eommittees bo appointed it in early d iy, with lull powers to fnvestljato tho suljvict und report a plsn, if possible, lor your con deration and action at tho pictcnt iiii"n. . arrr.tJiiE cocrt. I deem it my duty to direct your alten tion to the fact that no provision hss been made for tho acccminidatiou of tbo Supreme Court. Tho tftato House docs not afford sufficient room at any time, and dur ing tit sessions of t l.o Legislature none of 1 ho Judges ean occupy rooms tnr lor chambers., Th lsre and inctesilng business of tie, Court cannot be promptly ditpoked of unlcsi tbe Judges have comfortable chambers, with convenient access to the law library and 1 1. 0 judicial records. Th impoitanc and dignity cf tho Court, the ticesity for lLa prompt dispatch of ita business, and a proper regard for tho com fort and 'convenience of tho Judges, require that tie court room, clerk's ofllce, law library, and tho chambers, should be situated adjacent to each other. It ia not becoming or cxcumIIo, that the judicial department of the Government should bo neglected and lift to shift about' for a local habitation, deprived of those convent encea necessary to the speoJy and com fortl performance of its duties. mJUBATIOM AMD AITOllTIOXMSNT. At the Special So sm on of the Genera) Assembly, in 1EC3, tu net was passed directing that an enumeration cf tho white male inhabitants over ttventy-ono years of age, bo mode in each couuty in th State, and prescribing rules and regulations therefor. , Tbe enumeration hns been tnado and properly returned to the Auditor of State, who baa cansed it to bo published. Section 0, ar.ic.o4, of tbo Constitution of the Sfato, declares that 4,Tho number of Senators and I!cpre.-eutatires shall, at the session next following the period of . mak ing such enumeration, be fixed by law and apportioned among the acvoral counties according to tbu'nuoaber cf white male in habitan's aboto tnenty eno years of ngo iu each." This provision is positive and mandatory iu its character, and rsqairca this General Aticmbly to apportiou Senators and lleprcscutativcs among the several counties in the State, according to the number of whito male inhabitants above twenty-one years cf age in each. The State for full six years has been without a law apportioning Senators and ileprescntatirra in tbe sereral counties. Duricc that timo members of the General Ashcmbly lavo been elected by common consent, an 1 from Lcccssity, npon tho basis of the old (aw. Wbila thc;o elections are really without authority by law, but fiom necessity must be received as legal, tho basis ma do by the old apportionuront has by lapso cf timo and changes cf popuUtiou becomo grossly inequitable. .. The relative population of connttes and Henatorial aud Kcpictentutiro Districts has in many casca IccoUiC bo generally altered as to conflict utterly with tbe tbeoiy of reprcsaatatiju prcciiUd by tho Constitution. 1 As the General AsKt-mbly m now in pessession of the proper data upon which to make an apportionment, I trust ihot dutywill be folly jctfurmcd before ycur final adjournment.

Tending tho last' Draft, our County Commissioners offered a premium of ten dollar for each man credited on tho quota of this County, recruited by any recruiting officer. Major Spillmin of Greensburp recruited thirty-two men who wero credited to Franklin County, for which he was honestly entitled to thice hundred and twenty dollar. Hat our Commissioners refused to, pay this sumwhy, wo could nover imagine, unices it vraa because MnJ. Spitlraan - wai a Black Republican. A latviuit was the consequence, which remited adversely to tho Commissioners, and a few dayi since they liquidated the judgment against them, which was over four hundred dollars, exclusivo of attorneys' fcos. An amusing feature of tho caso is tho fact, that having employed ono lawyer to defend tbo caio, they afterward employ cd lawyer No. 2 to investigate the proceedings of lawyer No. 1 ind ascertain tbo situation of affairs.

LETTER FROM LAUREL. 1 CorrtiponJsno or tba Atuarlonn. Laurkl, Ijd., Jm. 7, 18C7. Very glad, Mr. Fditor, for your correcting me in my last in relation to tbo political antecedcnti of Mr. II. 0. Lord. On no account would I intentionally injuro the reputation of any man by act or word, and especially ' one whoso life and energies aro rpent for the beoeSt of others as well as his cwn. It is just such men as ho that I delimit to honor. What would be tho condition of our country today if we had no euch men in it?. For forty or fifty year tbe inhabitants of the Whito Water Valley havö be"en jogging along , on tho "pod-auer" system, and would to day lo in tbo same condition had it not been lor Mr. Lord. , True it is, a lew years ngo an effort was mado to get. us cut of tho hills and brush, but for tho want of a mnster mind of will and purpose, wo failed, utterly failed, with constJcrallo toss of time, patience and money to quito a number cf gentlemen. Contrast tho prcccat with tbo put, and it must bo patent to all what tho will and purposo of one man can accomplish, and at so rmall a costto thocitizen of the Volley. Why, fir, I bclicvo every dollar donated to the llailread Company of which Mr. Lord is chief, has been already returned fourfoldjjej say nothing about the increase in tho value of lands and town rn perty alonp the wbolo Hoe of the road. I am not fully posted in this matter at other points, but here I know property has rained at least one hundred per cent., and in many Instances two hundred. Thcra may bo a reason for this. Lnurcl is a good rolnf, perhaps tho besten tho Hue, and lbs Company are making preparations with an cyo in that direction, I think, from the amount of work thoy a to doing. They hat a doublo track the wholo Jcrgih of town, and havo built a Tory nico lWenpcr Depot, and aro preparing to baild a large Freight Depot. fhey have also luilt two cnino houses and a turning table, and at this writing thcro are no less than twcnty-icven freight and throe passonger cats standing on tho switch. ' ' Tho future growth and prosperity of Laurel will,' in -my humble opinion, depend upon our Hydraulic Company. If

they succeed in getting a god supply of irr, wg limy cpcc III a .1 UlttClUri n ff CStablihmcnti to spring up. I understand it is in contemplation as soon as Hpring opens to build a large Taper Mill and Woolen Factory, which I hope may be true. fome persons secra to think I take a great amount cf trouble and intercut myself very much about Laurel and its prosperity. Well, sir, it is tho best Hing I can do. As I am not possckned with capital to invest myself, I feci like inducing ctlcrs to take' hold and go. ahead, fully iatified in my own mind it will pay. I have the nerve, but lack the means. All we want ia manufacturing establishment to mako our town ono of tho best in the While Woter Valley; a"id if you can find any moro beautiful and picturerquo valley in tho State, I have yet to see it, aud I have been all over it. As I remark? J in a farmer letter, commcrco alone will never build up uny town or city. If would, surely any person who would step intg'th stores of Hazard, Geyer and Henry would exclaim, Your prosperity must bo unbounded, to sco the stacks and pik" of merchandise their shelves and counters are groaning under, where you can procure any thing you ask for in the way of merchandise, at fair prices and on reasonable terms. These gentlemen are doing their sharo' manfully; but there are others who havo tho means but lack tic energy aud enterprise, or aro afraid somebody elsu would be benefitted if they slowed ony disposition to lo liberal. Thank God, I havo always believed I did not live in this world for self and selfiMi purposes alone, but for the benefit of my fellow men. ' How fur I havo succeeded in that direction, my circumstances pecuniarily will tell. I lovo to live to see others happy and prosperous, and envy no man bis wealth ; but 1 cannot love or respect tho niggardly and penurious man, who, liko tho ' dog in tie number, will neither cat tho hay himt-clf nor let the ox eat it,' Yours, A.c.. A. W. Sun ENcrncitrt. CONGRESSIONAL. Tho Senate, on the I Oth inst., paved the bill tiling the 1th of March us tho time for the meeting of tho new Conf-rcs. Tho IIou9 aubrvqucutly concurred in the Senate ameudmctits, and tho bill goes to tbe I'leiiidcnt for approval. Tho bill roulatinj: tho clcctivo fran cbUe in tho Territories, pasted the b'cuato. It provides that in tbo Territories ut prcsut orgauiicd, or which may bo hcreuttcr orgnnizuu, thero bhall Le no denial of tho clcctivo franchiso to any citi zen on account of raco or color. Tho bill only requires the President's signature. The committees in charge of tho appropriation bills bclicvo it will bo necessary for ConrcM to sit every day except Sunday, up to tho 4th oT Match, to get through with necessary legislation of that character. A Washington dispatch says thcro is! pood authority for tho statement that tho j Ilouho Judiciary Commtee, after careful J examination, has como to the eonclusion that thcro is not sulficient prejnnd upon wbich to baio a bill ot impeachment.
