Yesterday, by an act which passed both branches of the Legislature, and received the Governor's signature, the Extra or call session terminated, and the regular session will commence to-morrow. The bill provided that the officers of the extra session serve also through the regular, and that all unfinished business of the ex tra be taken up and treated as though commenced at the regular session. This bill, the Criminal Code, and a Memorial and Joint Resolution relative to a Geolo gical Survey, constitute the completed business of the extra session. The Criminal Code goes into effect from the date of its pasrage, October 2d. It will most likely be ordered published immediately, either in pamphlet form, cr in all the newspapers in the Territory. Thus far matters have not progressed very harmoniously in the House. There is perhaps more real ability there than Las ever been at any previous session. It may be as truthfully said loo, that no previous session has contain d so much discordant material. The passage of the Criminal Code and dosing of the extra session was celebrated by a "Champaign Jubilee"' or "general high' on the part of the House. A large number of important Bills and Joint Resolutions have passed the Coun cil, and are now waiting the action of the House. The subject of per diem being now disposed of tolerably satisfactory, and that of incidental printing eased oil con siderably, and the introduction of the "nigger question"' nearly abandoned, we may reasonably hope, I think, for a vast amount of useful legislation. A Civd Code, II..inesn ad Bill, Sthool Bill, Li cense Bill, and Revenue Bill, 1 think will pas; the coming week. Last night the Deputy Sheriff of this county left for "Bike's Beak," "Cherry Creek," or some other region, and four Our Legislature " It is piain that another session of Ne braska Is about to be consumed in wrong j ling, speculation, &c.

Mr. Rankin of fered the following: Rasulrcil, That it shall not be in order to discuss in this House, or take any ac tion whatever, except by reference to ap propriate committees, or attempt to enact any local or special laws, until after the passage, or other disposal, by this House, .Fortbe3Iii.cs. A number of our citizens have 'pulled up stakes," and started for the New El dorado. We dislike to lose them, but hope our "loss will be their gain." They. take with them our sincere prayer that their 'visions of "big lumps" of gold may j be realized, and that they may speedily return to the bosoms of their families and j friends, richer and better men than the day of their departure. We doubt very much the propriety , of leaving for the mines, at this season of the year. Those with plenty of provisions and money will be able probably to get through the winter; but what will be come of the "miner" who is scantily I provided with the aforesaid indispensa i bles. He cannot work, for it will be either too cold or too wet, and in the spring the streams are likely to be swol len that mining, ai least successfully, will be out of the question. This class of gold hunters, in our opinion, had better reflect about this matter before starting. The man with an abundance of food and means will see the Elephant, and the ba lance of the adventurers may look out for the devil himself. Better, gentlemen, tarry a little longer in the land of corn, hog and potatoes. You will have time to get to the mines in the spring soon enough to work. A few men will not get out all the gold if it exists as represented. Look at the matter seriously, and in a so ber, common-sense way. Don't go oil" half-cocked; vinv things in the true light; j and we will bet cur old hat you will not regret it. Letter from the Plains- We have received an interesting cor respondence from "Wyrekn."

Cuming, have h ui j the same under consideration and beg leave to ren rt : That Thomas B. Cuming was appoin ted Secretary of the territory of Nebras ka by Franklin Fierce, Bresident of the United States, upon the organization of the territory, and entering at once upon the discharge of the duties of his olhee, he arrived in the month of September, ISol. By the untimely decease of Governor Burt, he succeeded to the' Supreme Ex ecutive and le.ame ex-t.fficio Governor of Nebraska. How ably he filled that office, those now living can testify. In ' the organization of our first Legislature, surrounded as he was ly conflicting ele- ; ments, threatened by fierce and contend ing factions, standing in imminent dan ger of even personal violence, he waver ed not once in his fealty to the General Government, nor in his fidelity to the trust reposed in him. Throughout the whole duration of those troublesome times he pursued a policy, the sagacity of which was provt d by its succe.'S, at.d the wisdom of which is evi denced by the present prosperous posi tion of the territory which he governed. Upon the resignation of Gov. Izard, he again assumed the Executive office, and from that time until near his death, maintained it. He has been identified with the terri tory ever since its organization, as one of its highest officers. He dhdwith the mantle of authority still about him: in the land which he had chosen for his own in the country which he had so well ruled. He was buried with his honors fresh upon him ; from the halls where he was wont to tread among a people that delighted to do him reverence. He was followed to his grave by those who were his friends, and the soil for which he had lived and labored received his remains. His requiuni was teid by the silence of those who knew what they had lost ; and 'if ye seek his monument, look around you.' Besides being for a long time the first Executive officer of the territory, he was in many repa, the first man in Ne braska : and nrfeaftrr, when the roll of: j the great men of the Territory is ( ailed. ! and the name of Thomas B.

Hi" life was nnholliday; but almost e ry nu - . ment of it had been passed in the busy thoroughfares of the world, and when finally prostrated by disease, the closing acts of his public life were characterized by tRe same energy and decision which made his character what it was.
