C. H. BINGHAM, Editor-. -BKOOKVILLEFriday llcmitg-, Hsrch 3. 18T1 The Indiana Legisltlure Resianation of flcf)LbIic3n Mentbers. A crisis wa reacheJ last week in the Indian Legislature. Hither than f ermit a direct and palpable violation of the Con titulion, by passing the Apportionment Hill, the It-abUeao members resinei and broke the quorum. It was bid enough to oust a HepnbHcan Senator, without rea. pon, but to redistrict the State for Legila ive elections, when the Constitution ipressiy pays it ahaW not be done until 1ST3, is a little wore than lawabiding people can stand. And though we do not approve of following Democratic precedents a a general thing, we cordially enderse , tb action f our Republican represeota tires tn thus enmroariiv putting a quietus upon any further notorious outrages by the Bourbon Democracy, It is fortunate, indeed, that the-1 little eame" was blocked Below wegive some comments by the prca : Fr-m the Cincinnati Gaaette. The Democrats procured the control ot 1hef ndiana Senate by suspending a Repub lican member, tt was not -done by any legal rtrooee, but by an act offorce in defiance -of law. Uaviog thus procured the renrol of both branches of the Legislature, they were proceeding, ii violation of the constitutional provision concerning the apportionment of the State for legislative elections, to reapportion the State in order to extend their usurpation by them for of an election. The Republican members of the llouse resigned in erder to stop this -usurpation. It has vitiated one Legislature; tLey determined that this illegality hou!d not be made the means of perpet tilting itself, and that the issue should be legally presented to the people at the next election, instead of forestalling it by an il legal and fraudulent apportionment. The Democratic members bave issued an addtess whkh is devoted, not to a vindication of their usurpation nor of their apportionment intentions, bat to an at tempt to show that the Republican memberg might have waited longer and then resigned, and to a list of the beneficial measures that might have been enacted il the Republicans had remained. They gave a long schedule of their goed inten tion?, and charged the Repvblicaoe with preventing the f eeple from having the ben cfit of them. Rut we suppose that to the intelligent people it will appear that the party which vitiated the Legislature by il legally depriving a member of his seat and jnade it a mere usurpation, its the f arty re sponsible for its dissolatioo. . From the Indianapolis Journal 2 The Republican party of Indiana will justify the course of the Republican mem bers of the Legislature who placed their resignations In the hands of Governor Backer on Wednesday eving. Tiie resigning members were willing to remain and co operate with the Democrats in the enactment of all laws of general interest to the people, and delayed their resignations until it be eame evident that the Apportionment Hilt was to be rushed through under the spur ef the previous question without debate, and to the exclusion of all ether business We show, in another oliiiiti, ho tufameus the provisions of the proposed measure are, and will here repeat the bout ef '.ealitg Democrats that it'it had become a law. the Democracy cou'd carry the Legislature, with a popular in j mty of l 000 against them in the State, and would control the legislation of Indiana for twenty years A committee of Republicans informed the Democrats of the willingness of the Republican members to remain and aUend to ordinary legisU'utn, but at the same tima notified them that any farther attempt to fore the passage of the apportionment iill would be defeated. The Democrat eTujed to make any cow promise and cx rressed a Je er uiia i tn tj carry it at a'.l tiaxtrJ-, and clearly indicated their purpose to do so by making it the specitl or4er for nine o'clock yeserJv mor'iini They met at nine o'clock to fiad thenselves. .without a Hivrtitn. Rut this is not all. Tb course of the Democrats in the Senate furnihed additional justicatroH f,r the action of the iiepublteans. By thererolutiomry course f the mjii yof tht Senate in excluding Senator Kurson from his sett, ow the first Aij of the session, and their infjmous ac tion in tbc manner of disposing of the -charges tramped up agtin-t htiti, the DenocracT evinced a dermiiiaio to con plish their p'irpises without regard to U or parliamentary usge. One f two thing id to b-fl i rewain and allow the corrupt fe-undrel t carry out their pnrte, or to g to the people on the rec ird they have a bread" y asade. The latter eourse was chosen, and tltat it i righ and that the people will endorse it, we have no dotttbt. IUfure reMning the (Republican ucmbers appointed a Committee to draft an addres setting forth the reisg-o fo their action, which is published in this i-t-rue, ined by the thirtyfour auetkbers ftho tacraed their seats. A fcrriLle 4-ol!tery tsplosiou in Wa'es, ou Saturday, kiiit-d over -fifty arsons. The J rkansas Seaate met on Saturday; the artie is of tmfcaohuient were presented, and. ranget&cnts made to ba thr ttrial go i e. last a fossikls.

The Conditions of Peace. The result of the consultations that

have been in frogress haa been announced., and we publish the terws of the treaty. Briefly, they trompise i. The cession of Alsace and of Metx,Bel fort, which is situated in Alsace, to be restored to France. 2. The payment of a war indemnity of five r illiarda of francs, a sum equivalent, in round numbers, ti one billion dollar. 3. A portion of the French territory. with some fortified towns, including Se dan, to reasaiw in the possession of the Germans until the condition of the treaty are f u.lUd. 4 The German army to enter Palis. 5 Peace t e proclaimed on the ratifi. cation of these conditio s to? the French Assembly. - From San Pomicoo. Vice President Col la t received a private letter from Ex Senator Wade, and Senator Wilson received one from Dr Howe, of the Sn Domingo T&iaiuiisaion. Mr. Wade gives his impreSaioa of Btex and auch people of --San. IHmiug asthey had been able ttr tnei bj the ime of wittin-r Mr. Wadeiayriw rris fio "e n a pe rso n who is Dot in favor of annexation, and he speaks of the peoele as quiet and inoffen sive. Dr. IIwe, in his letter, says they have discovered that all the opposition to an nefxatton was stirred up by the Uaytieas, which Gover nment is anxious to have the Dominican partof the island brought under its control, and, if possible, annex j J. C bral, Dr. Howe says, draws all his support, and has for some time past, from the Hay (ien Government. Since the question of annexing Stn Domingo to the United States was agitated, Cabral has received aid in both money and men from Hayti with a view of making his movement successful. A large portion of the Domini can Government were against both Baei and annexation to Hayti. The Commission all agree that the only strength the off esitiea to annexttioa ever had was in Hayti and not in Dominica. The Bursort Case in the Indiana Senate Began with a decision by the Senate that a member with dm and proper credentials should be excluded froai his Beat because it was charged that his seat had been obtained by bribery. Iu other words, the Senate, holding him not an inoocjnt but a guilty man, proceeded to punish him before any evideuce had been heard. All precedents were violated, all justice set at defiance. The next step was to order a decision by the Se i ate oa the report of the committee appointed to investigita the charges made against Mr. Burson, without alio ving the Senators thj opportunity of examining the evidence in the case. Much of that evidence, it was openly charged, badle-n sucjisSilly tmpetc'.ted. A vote was taken on the question of excluding Mr. Burson. and he was excluded. The action of the DjmacrAtic mij rity his been throughout arbitrary and high-hande 1, and they wtl! be held responsible for it before the people. Yfce Ne w York Tribune says: "It now appears that the Santo Domingo Commission is likely to remain on the island until about the middle of April Meantime, it may be noted that Senator Wade, speak trig without knowledge of the precise views of his colleagues, expresses nevertheless the opinion that the report of theCommis sion will be unanimous in favor of annexation. The political t-qnabbles in Arkansas have at last resulted in bloodshed. This report has reached Little Rock: "Hon. .!. F. Bethel, of Scott County, .who was one of the men.W;rs declared entitled to a ."eat, was murdered a few days ago by the son of Mr. KUiogton, who was ousted in the House, an 1 his seat awarded to Bethel." The Tennessee is safe. It arrived at Stmana "Bay, on the north side of the Island, on the 27th of January, being but ten days on the j.urney, not mnch ifanv more time than shonld Itave been consumed. It was detained there six days, nd arrived at Sn DomtBrCify on the 2d instant. 1 . The Vincennes Sui.ono of the ablest Democratic papers is the Srate, is terribly asitsted over the -Pxpuisloo of Senator Sarninghausen, of F rt Wayne, and the sivina his eat fo Mr. Bird. It scoriates the Democrats, Browa, Dittemore, Diugherty ad Franci co, who voted for it, and calls the pn-ceeding an "infamous outrage."

An Address.

Te lilt Pt(flt of Indiani: The undersigned members of the House of Representatives of the ' Forty seventh General Assembly of the State of Indiana have resigned their seats. A porper respect for ourselves aad toe various constituencies which we represented demands from as an exposition of the motives which influenced out antion. In explanation of our conduct, we re spectfully submit the following statement of facts: We have been, as a minority on foe floor of the House, compelled to snomit to novel, unjust, unprecedented and tyranni cal rulings from the Speaker, made for the sole aod only purpose of furttoeriog party schemes and measures. We have been denied cur privilege to be heard in support of right, principle and law. Dur constitutional rights as a minority have not been respected, but have oeen trampled tinder foot by the mjority without the teblance of justice or decency. Biuteftrce has been threatened from the chair to subject us to the arbitrary and unconstitutional demands of the majority. What we have claimed as a pri-vilcge, and never before questioned by any delihetative body, has been denied us. Forbearing to take the step we ha-ve finally been compelled to take, our for bearance has been construed into abject submission to their behests. They demanded that we should acquiesce tn the will of the maj iritj to enact an in-Tamo-vs, iniquitous and anconstitational measure, -known as House Bill No 291, to apportion the State for Senatorial and Representative purpoees, denying us, by the operation of the "previotis question," the right to amend or suggest any change in the proposed law. And by reason of the accidental majority of the Democratic party upon the fl or of the House, all amendments were not only cutoff, hut the bill referred to was placed out of its regular order, and given precedence rer all other important legislation then pending; and having been passed to engrossment under the arbitrary rulings of the Speaker, in direct violation of law, to eomplete the infamy the bill was, by sheer force of Democratic power, made the special order for the nest day at 9 o'clock A. M., thereby declaring that all legislation, of whatsoever character or importance, should be postponed untii the unlawful'and unconstitutional behests of the majority should be subserved. The enormity and infamous character of this measure will be seen when it is considered that, should this bill beeome a law, the Republican party mijkt carry the State by 15,000 majority, aad yet tinder its provisions the Democracy would still coatto! both branches of the General Assembly, thus giving to a minority, in express violation of the wishes of a m j r ity of the people, the Uuitel States Senators and all the officers to bi chosen by the General Assembly. Indeed, it was the open and avowed purpose of the majority, in the language of the Representative from Monroe county (Mr. Mitchell), to so re. district the State that the Republic ins should never agiin have a majority in the General Assembly. This bill was offered by the Democrats as an amendment to the present apportionment law, when it was in fact an entire new and distinct law to take the place of the present law, which was passed by the legislature in 1$J7. The enu iteration upn which this law was passed was made iu 13tJJ, the law was passed in l.S5 7 . Our Coastitution, Art. 4, Sections 4 and 5 are as fallows, to wit; Sec 4 The General Assembly shall at its second session after the adoption of this Constitution, an! every six years thereafter, cause an enumeration to be wade of all the white male inhabitants over the age of tweuty one years. Sec 5. The number of Senators and Repie-entatives hall, at the eesioo nest f .Mowing each period of making such enuj nitration, be fixed by law, and apportioned among ti e siril counties according to the white male inhabitants abeve twentj,,e Jeis "l eP ,n each: Provided. i ii me ui'i iv rtrvuiiH eicciions oi members of the General Aseetubly under th.s Constitution, shall be according to the apportionment last aiade by the General Axsctubly before the adoption of this Constitution. It wiU be seen that, by the express terms of the Constitution above quoted, every fix years only can an apportionment be made for legislative purposes, and that this must be done at ttie session next af ter the successive enumerations are made Not, then., till after the enumeration n m beirg take is complete, could such a measure be constitutionally passed that is, not until the session of 1T3. Yet the Democracy, because of their power, prooosed to override the Constitution, and place upon oar statute books tie act, thus showing that the Democracy in the prent Legislature are wholly ragardless of law and Constitution, and are ae revolutionary in character now as they were ten years ago. We earaestly appealed to the Democracy to postpone the consideration of this bill till a later day in the session, e that the many important measures penning might "c "ciCM ",on' u - MO Fom'cil questions in which the people are in terested settled; bat ur appeals were treated with contempt. Having taken an oatv to eapport the Coo!ttuiion of the State when we took our eeats, we could not sit silently by, aod suffer the final accomplishment by the Democracy of this utjus unconstitutional and revolutionary aieisure, without

feeling that Ire would be chargeable as

accessories to the crime; and to prevent it, we resignea our e eats as members of the Legislature. . , We confidently, appeal to the intelligent, law abiding people efladiaoa to sustain our action.

M. Kennedy, John S. Knight, John It Millikan. Geo. A. Netherton, Yrm P Rhodes, David Sayers, Asahel Stone, Henry A. White, Martin Wood, The New Salary Law. The following is a synopsis of the new law enacted by the Legislature regarding the salary of county officers, which we clip from the Cincinnati Commercial: The bill provides a list of fees that may be taxed and collected by the Clerk of the Supreme Courts Secretary of State, County Recorders, Prosecuting Attorneys, Con. stables, Justices of the Peace, Coroners, Surveyor, Clerks, Sheriffs, Auditors, Treasurersj -&C , so-mewhat after the style and manner of the old fee bill, there not being any increase or cimi nut ion in these respects of prime importance. ' Among the more noticeable I observed that the fees of jurors are raised to $2 50 insteid of $1 25 pcr'diem, and the fees of witnesses to 1 50 per diem. Clerks are allowed , for issuing marriage license instead of 51, which some Clerks used te eoustrue up as high as S2 50, and $1 for an execution, to include all and every service rendered in relation thereto. The docket fees of Prosecuting Attorneys are also increased in p-leas of guilty or not guilty, a distinction iieing made between misdemeanors and felouies. But these changes are of comparatively minor importunes and dj not effect the main principle of the bill. Section 20 provides that each Clerk and Sheriff, on the first Mondays of December. March. June and October, shall pay over to the County Treasury all moneys received by them for fees or charges for -f5 cial charges of every description, taking the Treasurer's receipt therefor, and a reg Utry of these receipts is kept open to pub lie inspection. A separate and distinct account is to be kept of these amounts, and they are to constitute and be known as ih County OlSoers' Fund, and if any surplus reiuaias of it after pajing the saliries that are thereafter provided, it is to be merged into the general eounty revenue The same officers are required at the end of every quarter to pay over tothe'freasu rer all fines, forfeitures, mi-claimed witnee fees, fury fees, fca., that gj to the Common School Fund. Section 21 provides that all costs that are taxed under the provisions of the act shall be and remain a lien on the real ea tate of the prty liable until paid. Section i:2 psHrtdes puni.-hment by fine, imprisonment and forfeiture of office, fjr taxing constructive Tees or any that are not plainly an 1 definitely alliwjd by the act to be taxed. Section 23 requires the Treasurer to make a report every quarter skawiog the amount in bis hands at the close of the preceding month belonging to eaih separated fund, and any overdra ws that may have been made, and that he furnUh to the co'inty papers copies tf his report for publication and they are allowed two dollars for inset mg it. Section 21 provides that the Clerk and Sheriff shall each receive fir all the services that they are requited by law to perform an annual compensation of fit tee ti hundred dollars. Section 25 allows to the Clerk and Sheriff an additional sum of one hundred dollars for every sue thousand inhabitants over tea theusand, and tweuty par cent, on the amount of their oa fees, which have been taxed, collected and paid over to the Tteasurer in accordance with the requirements of the act Section 24 requires the Clerk to isue executions and fee bills after the expiration of six months from the time that they are taxed and due for the collection of all costs then remaining unpaid. Section 27 requites the Clerk and Sheriff to make a quarterly report under oath (as all leperts required are to be made.) showing the amounts respectively charged by each, tfie amounts collected, the names of the parties who are liable, and the balauce due from each, party. Section 28 allows the Auditor fifteen hundred dollars per annum, and an additional one hundred dollars per aunura for every one thousand inhabitants in excess of ten thoasand. (these allowances to all the officers bcii; jFor deputy hire,) and also the feca and e nnutiasions allowel him for his services inauinaging the School Fund of the couhtj. Th School Fund is to oa uiwinuureu -io me several counties By Section 20 the Treasurer it allowei fifteen hundred doll.rs per annum, and the sum of seventy-five dollars for every one thousand over ten thousand of population, and also his feca for the collection of delinquent taxes. Section 30 makes it the duty ef the Board ef County Commissioners, at every regular session, to make an allowance t the Clerk and Sheriff of one fourth of their annual salary out of the officers fand, but u me amount collected and paid over to the Treasurer by .these officers doea not reach in the aggregate a sum at the rate of one thousand dollars per annum, the Board are authorised to wake up the deficit, not goteg beyoud that point. Secion 31 provides for a quarterly re port by the Coun'y Treasurer te the Coun ty Hoard, showing in detail the condition of each fund in his hands. Section 32 fixes the basis by which the population vf each county is to be determined, as fey the last preceding census U ken under the authority of the Goverament of th United States. 35 makes it the duty of the SuDreaae Judges of te State, within thirty days after the passage of the act, to prescribe rules and dcCoe, as nearly as may be, the fees that may be taxed under the provisioos of the act-by the Clerks and Sheriff, without taxing constructive fee. Section 36 provides for the successor of any county officer collecting fees remaining unpaid at the expiration of the term of his rkcessoc

Section 33 That if any of the officers named shall fail to make the reports, or perform the duties required, they shall be deemed guilty of a felony, an-d fined and imprisoned in the State Prison Section 39 That, upon an-d cquittal in any oriminal case, ae costs hall be taxed or collected from the defendant or the State. Section 43 That no fee bill shall issoe after the lapse of five years, except upon five days' notice to the party who is liable for the payment thereof. Section 43 allows Coaoty Commissioners $4 per day for the time they are employed. Section 50 gives the employment of all bailiffs, and other employes abomt the Court room, to the Judge of the Court, instead of to the Sheriff, as has been the practice heretofore, and no person who has served as a deputy of the Sheriff for a year previous is eligible to the appointment. An emergency is declared, aod that the act shall be in force from and after its passage.
