Ft How Citizens 1 lie General Assembly of our State closed a laborious session on Saturday the 27th of January inst And I can with truth say, thai I leel much gratified, and sincerely thankful to the all wise and beniftcent ruler of the uni verse, that I have again returned to the enjoyments of the domestic fit c side, and the social converse of my frknds. To give you a detail of the multifarious proceedings of the Legislature during the last session, would be a task too great for me to attempt in a newspaper address, and unprofitable to you, although it might in some instances excite nuri merits in others ridicult and in others contempt. Feeling it an imperative duty, herewith give a list of Acts and J mi Resolu tions, as pisse.d the two Houses, and which have received Ext culi e sanction. Those Acts and Resolutions which effect our county, that is, of a general nature, (which by the by are but very few in comparison to the whole number.)
