ALABAMA LEGISLATURE.
Sppci.l to the Time, by H. A A. Line.]
Mo.NTuioMF.ity. March r>.
SENATE.
Nothing was done in the Senate ex
cept protosts of some Radical Sen
ators against the memorial recently
presented to the United States Sen
ate hy Spencer.
Mr. Harris, of Russeli, said that he
rose to deny the authority of his sig
nature to a document which had been
presented to the United States Sen
ate, called a memorial to the United
; States Congress, a copy of which ap
! petired in the Advertiser this morn- j
; iug, and to which his name was at
tached as Senator from Russell; it
was an infamous falsehood that he
ever signed such a pupe.r that he was
ever consulted about doing so. He
saw the paper to-day for the ilrst
time, and his name was forged to it.
The paper contains the most flagrant
and willful perversions of tho truth.
Many of tho so-called grievauoics set
forth in this memorial, were meas
ures which he had earnestly support
ed, and were demanded for tho pub
lie good. He simply wanted the (Sen
ate and the world to know that he
subscribed to no such document and
that the paper was blackened with
untruths, which ho did not hesitate
to denounce as such.
James Greene, colored Senator from
Hale, said lie signed it without ever
having read it, not remaining in the
caucus room “no long as two min
utes.” He hoped the Senate would
attribute Ills conduct to his weakness,
as he certainly “do not wish to slan
der the people of this State.” He was
told by his Republican brethren (hat
tlie document was insignificant, sim
ply a political movement, und he
stuck his list to it. He had no knowl
edge until now of the mischievous
cruelty of the document. He said he
thought the document he was signing
[was a protest against Parsons for U.
H. Judge.
Royal, another colored Senator,
said ho was as ignorant of this docu
ment as a child. Hr remembered
that one J. B. Bingham came to him
in his seat one day, and presenting a
paper, asked him to sign. He asked
what it contained, and was told that
it was a caucus recommendation to
make Arthur Bingham postmaster at
Montgomery.
Leftwieh, another colored Senator,
also signed the bill under misappre
hension, and had favored nearly all
the measures to which the memorial
alluded, particularly the sunset and
sunrise bill, about which such a
great bugaboo has since been made
ad for which he had been arraigned
By his colored constituents. He was
willing to stand on the decision
of the Senate, but his
ignorance alone had led him into
committing tho wrong, with the mag
nitude of which he was utterly un-
Iconscious.
f J ones, Senator from Lowndes coun
jty, said he hail no recollection of hav
ing ever signed the paper, and said he
certainly had never read it or heard
it read. He had no wish or feeling to
blacken the fuir name of the majority
of the General Assembly, nor the
people of the State through their Rep-I
resentatives. If lie signed it he had j
no recollection of doing so, and was
w illing to make all due apologies, He
knew that the brains of the Senate
were in the ranks of the Democrats,
and had acted accordingly. He had
followed them in all matters for the
good of the people, and ignored the
so-called leadership of Senator Har
den and other Republican champions
of the yeas and nays. There is only
one other colored Senator, Jerc Har- 1
alson, and he has not been in his seat
since the 4th of March. It is consid
ered that a great fraud was practiced
by someone in getting up that memo
rial.
The following resolution, by Mr.
Moore, of Colbert county, was adopt
ed;
THE <>A [TV TIMES.
Bo it resolved, That a committee of
three members of this Senate be ap
pointed by the presiding officer,
whose duty it shall bo to ascertain
whether or not said memorial was au
thorized, and if so, which member, or
anyone of lliis body, signed the same,
and what should be the action of this
Senate in the premises.
Be it further resolved, That said
committee is hereby clothed with
power to send lor persons and papers
and examine witnesses, or both.
Beit further resolved, That it shall
be tho duty of tho committee tore
port their action as early as possible.
HOUSE.
In the House there was nothing of
special interest. The bill to estab
lish a Board of Revenue for Mont
gomery county was ordered to its
third reading Monday.
A number of reports wore made,
and bills passed -none of general im
liortunee.

GOVERNOR SIGNS ACTS AND RESOLUTIONS
OF TIIE LEGISLATURE.
Atlanta, March ti. The Governor
completed a revision of all tho bills
and resolutions of the Into Legisla
ture to-day, tho former numbering
881 and the latter it. But one meas
ure was vetoed, viz.: the bill to cur
tail tho jurisdiction of the County
Court of Mitchell and reduce tho sal
ary of the Judge.
OOVKRNOH APPROVES THE RESOLUTIONS
CENSURING THE TREASURER.
The resolutions censuring the Trea
surer were approved by the Governor
ns follows:
It is no part of the duty of the Gov
ernor under the Constitution to pass
upon a judgment of censure against
an officer of the Government. These
resolutions contain a proviso and di
rections to the Governor, which, in
my opinion, the interest of the com
monwealth renders needful. They
are, therefore, with this explanation,
approved.

CIVIL RIGHTS.
Augusta, March 5. Quite u sensa
tion was created here to-day, caused
by what was supposed so boa practi
cal enforcement of the so-called Civil
Rights bill. Win. A. Hatch, of l’rov
; idence, R. 1., on route to Jacksonville,
Fla., arrived at the Planters’ Hotel
to-day and secured a room for him
self and another, whom he registered
as Moses Daily. Belli appeared in
the dining-room together, and look
scats at the table. Considerable sur
prise and some feeling was evoked,
as Daily appeared to be a colored
man. The news soon spread over the
city, and there was quite a commo
tion for a while. Upon investigation
it turned out that Daily was a full
blooded Pequoid Indian, employed
as a nurse by Hatch, who is an inva
lid on his way to Florida.

RAIN AND HAIL.
Union Springs, March 6.— lt seems
that the rain and wind will never
cease. We have just had almost an
other storm. There was some small
hail. It lasted about two hours, and
has, no doubt., caused considerable
damage. The water ran through the
streets as if it was a small river. The
thunder and lightning was alarming,
and large balls of the fluid came into
the telegraph office, at short intervals,
which interrupted tho working of the
wires for a short while.
Civil Itlffhts lii ManUcomrry.
Montgomery, March 6.—Two negro
members of the Legislature bought
tickets and entered the dress circle
of tho theatre last night. They were
induced by the usher to leave, to
avoid a disturbance.
To Travelers for flic Itlaek Hills.
Chicago, March (5. A combination
has been formed between the Illinois
Central arid Northwestern and Da
cotoh Southern railroads, to carry
travelers into the Black Hills when
the Missouri river opens. They will
take passengers to Yankton hy rail,
whence they will go by river to the
south of White river, or to old Fort
Perral. From each of the places
there is a good wagon road to the
Hills; distance ICO miles. The whole
trip from Chicago will occupy about
one week. Mr. Moeken, of the Da
kota Southern road is satisfied.
—The difference between Buffet and
