Petitions • are already circulating, and the prohibition men aay that they will have three thousand Bigna„ lure# tb s week, and the election will be held about the iirst of No vember. Both aides are already stripptd for the tight, ana it will be the iercest battle ever fought in the Slate.

WHAT TH E LEGISLATURE IS DOING. This will probably he the long est session of the legislature ever held iu O’corgia. The committee appointed to investigate the busi ness on hand, repor 8 that the body can ptobably adjourn by the 10th of October It will then have been in session hissummir, about one hundred days, with very little legislation of a general character to show tor it. Most of the im port at t hills introduced, either at the fall or summer session, are still on the calender, and will have to be disposed'of or he Gme al A s seuibly will place itself in the re dicutons attitude, of wasting time and the pub’ic money, n prepats ing bills for final action, and thou running oil'and leaving them un disposed of. It is the duly of the body to take final act'on on every bi/l before it. I hut this might have b< .u done a mouth ago. we will not dispute, but ' stead of be ing a deliberative body, it has de generated i ito » .tebating society. Mingling v.th the membeis a day or/Ao last week, we found that the practiced business men are ut lerly disgusted, and say that a few men, with more gas than btains, have cost the State their weight in silver.

And we are glad to note, that the press of the State is nearly unanimous in favor of it.

The insurance Lilt seems to have stirred up immense interest among the insurance men. And it is free ly stated, that if 'bis bill bee mes a law, every leading Insurance! comp-ny will cancel in policies! and withdraw from the State. That would be a set ions catastro phe to the business of the State, nu l the legislature should go slow. After reading the bib carefully, , we do not see such a bug-bear in | if as appears to the insurance men. What is propot id by he bill? The i’mple purpose, as we gather it, is to require Insurance compas nies lo comply with their contracts If the company inst ras my house for *IOOO, and it bivms down be fore the policy expires, then they are to pay me the full amount of the pobey, end not what a board of assessors may say the property hr worth.
