Close of the Session. The
ttate closed its sitting on Monday last, after a session of nineweeks. We are unable to state with certainty the number of acts passed, but suppose it to amount to three hundred, if not over. About two-thirds of this number may bo considered as local in their nature, and of interest only to those portions of the state where they operate. The ad valorem bill, (noticed in a letter last week,) passed the House on Friday the Jllst ultimo, and for want of time was laid over in the Senate among the unfinished business to the next session. No vote was taken upon it, in that body, on which an opinion could be formed of its ultimate success, had time permitted a full consideration. The bill proposing a loan of $250,000, and pledging the receipts from the o per cent, fund in redemption, to be applied to purposes of internal improvements, failed in the House on engrossment, near the
close of the session. A bill was then offered in the Senate, which subsequently passed both Houses, appropriating $600 of said fund to each county in the state, to be expended under the direction of the boards doing county business, except otherwise provided. The counties bordering on the Wabash, and interested in its navigation, are permitted to draw their several portions out of the first receipts, and apply them to the improvement of said river, in conjunction with Illinois, under certain regulations, v A bill from the House giving mechanics jind others a lien on new buildings for work done, or materials furnished, where the sum shall amount to $30 or over, passed the Senate on Monday last. The common school act of last session has been amended, so as to authorize elections for trustees, where they shall fail to be chosen on the day nowfixed by law. Some other changes were made, not recollected at this time.

The Alabama question, about which Mr. Lewis, a member of Congress from that State, made such
a noise the other day, appears to have been very satisfactory terminated. A good understanding on the subject had been effected between Governor Uayle and .Mr. Key, the agent of the general government, at the moment that the oratar was letting off his diatribes. Governor Gayle on the 20th of December sent a message to the Alabama Legislature, accompanied by copies of his correspondence with the agent ar.d with the Secretary of War. The message announces the controversy to be at an end. It
appears that the settlers are to remain in the undis

to the Indians by the treaty. Governor Gayle says in conclusion, "It is believed that the plan which has been adopted by the General Government, and the exertions, they are making to purchase the reservations, will effectually prevent any future collision. However this may be, it is no less the right than it is the duty of the legislature to pass all such laws as will protect the Indians in the rights which have been secured to them by the treaty. Laws should be made, particularly with a view to prevent trespasses upon these lands, and to secure them against all fraudulent contract in relation to rentinoand leasing their premises. The people have become citizens of the state and have placed themselves under the protection of our laws, by their own consent, freely and voluntarily given, and are called upon by every consideration of justice and human

The bill to amend the township law in this county and Switzerland, passed near the close of the .session. It provides, among other things, for the appointment of township collectors of the state and county revenue. A copy of the act will be published so soon as one can be procured . The above, though a brief view of a few of the many subjects that occupied the attention of the last legislature, must suffice for the present. When we feel more in the humor to attend to our editorial duties, we shall endeavor to enter more into detail.
The Army. We find from the official documents which accompany the Message of the Presi
dent to Congress, that the aggregate number of the U. States Army, general Stall' officers, non-commissioned officers and rank and file, is 7,1U8. This force is composed of one regiment of dragoons, 710 in strength; four regiments of Artillery, each of 515; and seven regiments of Infantry, each of
517. The aggregate of Artillery is 2,180, and off

Thc Philadephia Times says, Congress had better drop the deposite question the people are very tired of it. Since Mr. Benton's speech has gone forth, the members in support of the Bank, have also become tired of it. They find it difficult to war with Mr. Benton on the question. His plain, unvarnished statement of facts has proved a death blow to the hopes of the Bank and her vassals.
The deposite question has lost its magic charm. The opposition has given it up for a bad job thc people icill inquire into matters for themselves, and not rely upon the disorganizes for information. This is right as it should be. Since this project has failed, it is hard to conjecture what next will constitute the opposition song. Good Authority.

Heading ( Pa .)Jan.2S. AN HONEST ACT. "CONSCIENCE MAKES COWARDS OF US ALL." A rare instance of upbraiding of conscience occurred a few days since, which deserves a passing notice. A farmer, residing a few miles from this place, called on one of our oldest established merchants, and stated, that on a certain day, more than eleven years ago, he passed on him a counterfeit $10 bill, describing the note. The merchant, who had always teen in tho habit of preserving, in a small book kept for the purpose, all counterfeits, as well as the dates of their recepthn, on refering to it, found the bill, as well as the date at which he had received it, corresponding to the farmer's words. The latter, on taking hold of the bill, tore it into fragments with apparent satisfaction, and desired the merchant to calculate the interest, which having been done, he paid the whole amount in good money. He had received the note, the farmer stated, at the time, for a genuine one, but did not know of whom, and just starting in the world, could not well alford to los so much, and begid thia, hi uifd argued
