The reve .nue arising from fees and fines go into the common school fund. The county commissioners grant the license excep in incorporated towns, where the corpor . ate authorities control the matter.

STATE BANK. - This institution has made progress so far as bun? referred to the Committee of the Whole in the Council, bat there it will probably, end. It was indefinitely postponed, then re considered and referred to the Committee on Corporations, from which the majority reported favorably to its passage, and Mr. Miller cf the minority recommended its indefinite postponement, which, cn a vote being taken, was lost.

QUESTION Or PRIVILEGE. One day during the week the Court Bailiff came into the House for the pur- pose cf serving a subpoena upon the peaker, ana, witnout permission, walked directly to tne peaker s stand, and in- tormed mm ot bis errand. 1 ne bpeaker replied that he would not object, and in answer the officer intimated that he should probably return with an attach ment. On the retirement of the officer, Air. Bennet arose to a question of privil ege, and spoke as to what had transpired and remarked that an officer had no right to interfere with any member of the House whilst ia session ; and upon this a discussion arose ia which many of the members participated, and arrived a4 the conclusion that members could not be ar rested whilst in the House. J SPECIFIC TAX. There is a provision in the new Reve nue law laying a specific tax of three dollars on every quarter section of land for road purposes, which can be worked ! out at one dollar and fifty cents per day, besides a poll tax of one dollar and fifty cents, which may be discharged with one day's work. - This is in addition to the advalorem tax for county, territorial, school, school- house, city, and other taxes. Time will show its popularity, no. TAYLOR. The county of Otoe was exceedingly fortunate in her selection of councilman when Mr. Taylor was found to be the choice of the people. He is a sound reasoner, an eloquent speaker, a laborious worker, and . atten tive hearer, in reference to the subjects which are presented for his consideration and within his province as a legislator. He participates in all important business and discussions before the Council, and receives a due share of the passing enco miums. SPECIAL LEGISLATION. I hold the people would not require the passage "of this overwhelming majority of local bills, if their members would take a correct view of the matter, and be govern ed by a principle that could be consis tently explained before their respective constituencies. , There are general ferry, road, incor poration and county seat laws, under which the people of every county can ob tain their rights at home without troubling the Legislature or its individual mem- bers. . And yet we see the Republican takes the position that the "Republicans and opposition members have at all times been in favor of such legislation as the people of Nebraska require at their hands." Now this is just in keeping with what I have considered their policy and prin ciple. In the General Assembly, the opposi lion to special legislation is sneered at and ridiculed, and the republicans do nearly as a boay, whenever & test comes -cast their votes in favor cf special legis- j latloa5 areljacked up and sustained l7 &Q ldjng Tepubhcaa papers of the Territory ia plain and cnequivocal lan guage that need not be misunderstood ite course pursued m reference to the Rankin resolution, on which we find the roles recorded with only one democrat opposed to it, and the republican speak-, ers raising- their voice md influence reasonable man that the opposition to the democracy are generally in favor of spe cial lerislation.' -: : ' .

Here is' one of the bid sores of past ! legislation revived.; This question was settled in a bitter contest originally, when the county seat was located at Fort Cal houn,' and has continued to trouble every session since. A bill removing the county seat of jus- tice to De Soto passed the House on! Sa- turday last. The question of the removal of . the county seats of "Richardson, Johnson, Cass, Cuming Dixon, Platte, Hall, But- tier an(j others, has been introduced into the House and taken up much of its time; members leaving. Several of the members left on Sunday and Saturday, and will continue to depart one by one until the end of the session, as the Secretary refuses to pay any more expenses, either in the way of per diem, postage, stationery, or anything else, and it is presumed not to be profitable to con- tinue any longer if ; tiie pay has to come f rom the Territorial treasury.
