LOCAL COURT BILLS.
Mr. YOUCHE, by consent, introduced a bill [S. 285], to legalize a term of Court held in Pulaski County in June, 1881, which was read the three times under a setting aside of the Constitutional restriction by a two-thirds vote, and passed the Senate by yeas, 41; nays, 1.
Mr. BICHOWSKY stated that about eight days ago a bill was passed fixing a term of the Vigo County Court on the 1st day of May, 1883. There is a term pending which the provisions of the new bill cut off. There are from thirty to thirty-five prisoners in the Jail awaiting trial, and on this account there was a supplemental bill [H. R. 461] introduced and passed the House yesterday, providing that the first term for this year shall commence on the 1st of March. As the time is short, he moved for a suspension of the Constitutional rule that the bill may be passed the Sen page: 239[View Page 239]ate. The motion was agreed to by a two-thirds vote, and the bill passed-yeas, 41; nays, 0.
