fixed the date at Tuesday the 15tb Mr Hamilton moved an amendment fixing the time at Thursday May 17th and adjournment Saturday May 19th Mr Wood said he had no greater than any ether member in closing work but there were a number of impor tant measures yet which required action and no estimate could be formed of the amount of time needed to consider these matters There were several appropriation bill yet to ins bcmsu upon auu wie university mu ana most important of all the tax bill The Sen ate as he understood were in favor of letting the tax matter be digested by a commission hut to do so would require an extra session and entail a very great expense upon the State The proper way to do was to close up the work as rapidly as possible and when It was done adjourn Mr McGinnis said that as for the Detroit charter members would not be troubled with it Mr Little said that with regard to the tax bill a proper consideration ot it would re quire four days by the House and an equal length of time by the: Senate The' University bills were very Important and diverse sentiments concerning them were entertained He was assured that many members were loaded pp to the muzzle with speeches on that question and even if they proved to be simply blank cartridges would require at least two days to fire them off Then there was the joint resolution of Turck calling on the State to refund $163000 retained as swamp land interest from the counties that too would require rtfuch time for explanation It was impossible to place the date at which the House could de cide its work would be finished and moved as an amendment that when Legislature finishes its work It will adjourn and not be The Speaker ruled the amendment out of order Mr Hamilton thought that but little time would be required to pass upon the measures enumerated by Mr Little He and othere were suffering in their private inter ests and it was high time that the Legisla ture adjourned The resolution fixing the date of adjourn ment on the 17th was adopted and was sent to the Senate for concurrence It was then made the special order for the 15th AUPBR AND DESTITUTE CHILDREN A bill has passed the House making it un lawful for any magistrate to commit any child over three and under sixteen years of age as vagrant truaut or disorderly to any county poor house or for tiny county superin tendent or overseer of the poor or other officer to send any child as a pauper to any such poor house for support and care unless such child be an unteachable idiot an epi leptic or paralytic or be otherwise defective diseased pr deformed so as to render It un fit for family pare "justices of tne peace county supenritendepta or overseers of the poor are to commit such children not above exempted to some orphan asylum or other charitable or reformatory institution as now provided by law It 1 further made the duty of the county superintendents of the poor or other proper officers charged with the tup port and relief of indigent persons of the several countlesln which there are county poor houses to cause the removal of all children between the age of three and six teen years (not exempted as above enumer ated) from their respective poor houses on or before the 1st of January 1878 and also to cause the removal ot those who may here after pome under the care and control or hereafter be born in such poor houses be fore they shall have arrived at the age three years and provide for their support and care in families orphan asylums or other appropriate institutions as now provided for by law HOUNDING DBEH Tbe House yesterday refused to strike out all after the enacting clause in the bill to pre vent hunting deer and elk with hounds and aogs in hunters that tbe hounds regions camp utensils A chase sometimes re sulted Ln the capture of a deer More fre quently an exciting pursuit for a week has resulted in much sport but little game Con sequently humanitarians as well as sports men have favored the hounding of deer as preservative of the noble game Residents of the northern counties who hunt for profit and not for pleasure have come to the conclusion that the deer which haunt their localities be long to them They disregard the common usage and the common law of the State that all game belongs to him that captures it Reckless and avaricious they make haste to destroy the game and pursue them with the methods of the butcher They construct and which are most successful in capturing the mlld eyed deer and enable them to ship away tbe car casses of venison by the car load Hence they oppose any hunting by dogs which has a tendency to scatter the deer and frighten them away from the and lakes where' fire hunts Insure large numbers WAYNE COUNTY SALARIES The members of the city delegation who opposed the passage of tbe bill fixing at defi nite sums the salaries of the Wayne County Clerk and Register of Deeds and requiring all fees to be paid into the county declare that their opposition was founded on a calculation of the receipts and expenses of the two offices named which convinced them that no saving whatever could be made to the taxpayers and further that at the same time the work would cot be so efficient ly performed por the public as well served ss at present TUB LABORATORY TROUBLES The complications resulting from the chemical laboratory troubles at the Unlversi ty have no doubt

were to be considered The friends of the Institution however fearful that the meas ures would fall made a strong effort to post pone action until next Tuesday The friends of the Dill to remove the School of Mines to some point in the Upper Peninsula which bill was lost yesterday and was reconsidered sad tabled desired action to be taken on that bill ot once and order to secure sueh action

Rapids fc Indiana Railroad to BwrvLoke near Cheboygan passed the House committee ot the whole to day It will probably be passed at the same time as the Alpena bill THE DETROIT CHARTER Mr Baker after the Mining School bill had been disposed of moved that the committee of the whole be discharged from the further consideration of the bill to revise the Detroit charter tor thgHurpose be said of enabling Mr ConelymiBove the indefinite postpone ment of the bill By way of a personal explanation he said that when the present Mayor of Detroit took his office he suggested that the charterueeded revision and on resolutions of the Common Council he (Mr Baker) was employed to draw up a charter The work was submitted to the Council and they un dertook to revise it but finding it a tedious job apngitfled what was known as a to revise the instrument Mr Miller chairman ot the police Board was appointed to look over the provisions re lating to tbe police Mr Huribut of the Water Board to look after the chapter per taining to the water supply and a member of tbe ire Board tp' revise the por tion relating to" the' pire 'Depart ment He then related the circum staqqof the various meetings of the city Bflegatlon here all of which have been re ported in Thb ree Press He concluded Dy saylne that no opposition to the provisions of the charter were manifested among the members here until Henry Starkey Secretary of the Water Board made his appearance here As it was apparent that all the Sena tors from Detroit and some of the Repre sentatives would oppose the charter and ss the time for its consideration owing to tbe near approach of the end of the session was short and the passage of the charter doubt ful he had come to the conclusion that the city coqld wait two years longer Mr Conely related the history of the pre paration of the charter and said that when the Representatives from Detroit were nomi nated the support of the charter was a part ot the platform on which they stood and upon whlpti they were elected notwithstanding the fierce opposition oi the executive boards He had not changed in respect to the charter but some of his colleagues had The Council had prepared subsequently a charter which left out entirely all of the various executive boards as those boards were no part or lot of the city government Mr Gies inquired why the Board of Educa tion had been left out of tbe charter which Baker and Conely so strongly favored Mr Conely answered that it was because the IJoard ot lucatioa ws a part of the sys tem of education regulated by the State of Michigan As a matter ot fact the charter which had the approval of the Common Council was never submitted to It and was never read by it At the first meeting of the jClty delegation the various features ot tbe charter were considered and every member that was present agreed in support ing them No discussion had arisen among the delegation from the city until a paid emissary of the Water Board had arrived here Hb would leave it to the House to draw its inferences His colleagues might bo right in their views and in their op position to the charter but he thought not They defended the powers and privileges of the boards pot making them accountable we (alluding to himself and A Baker) wish to make the boards accountable to the people not accountable at tne end of the year but accountable ever day He beUeved it an Imposition on the House to ask it to en dure the wrestle that must ensue between the divided delegation from the City of Detroit in a contest oer the charter it was too late to enter into such a contest He was frank to say that the opposition the charter would meet with from the Senators from Detroit and perhaps from the Representatives who opposed it would be fatal He would frankly acknowledge that the friends of the charter were defeated before the Legislature but he was convinced that they would not be defeated when they came before the people Martin said he vias surprised and pained at what ho had heard Neither of the two honorable gentlemen who had spoken constituted In themselves all there was of the City of Detroit Wuen Mr Baker had been paid for composing the char ter his interest in it was at an end It was for the people to approve or condemn it There were only two ways to get at the will 'of the people from the people directly or from their representatives The Common Council represented tbe people of Detroit and the Common Council unanimously had condemned the charter and had notified all the members of the city delega tion to that effect That was why he aud oth ers of his colleagues were opposing tbe char ter He denied that the opposition was first made manifest when the Secretary of the Water Board reached Lansing it had begun when the resolutions of the Common Council were received a fortnight ago He had uo recollection of any pledge or any platform sustaining the charter when the nominations were made last fall It had been remarked that Mr Baker had drawn up the charter ard therefore was a gone man to get it through the Legislature but further than that noth ing had been said about the new charter To intoiKi himself about tbe state of feeling upon the charter In Detroit he bed tele graphed to Alanson Sheley an old citizen and a former member here and Sheley had Immediately telegraphed back substitute charter passes we are all Laughter He bad en deavored to do his duty according to the light which he had and he greatly regretted that any slurs had been cast upon him or his colleagues in the remarks of tbe two gentle men who had preceded him who had also censured by implication such worthy citizens as Sidney Miller and Cliapsccy Huribut It the honorable years older they would not have" ventured to assail citizens who had been so long and so closely identified with the interests of the city Mr Gtea said that neither Mr Baker nor Mr Conely knew much about the Citv of De troit or were entitled to speak for it Neither of them had ever held cffice brt he (GIcf) was a member pt the voonfil at the time the sub ject ot a new charter was under consider ation Mr Norris arose to a point of or Jer De Insisted that personalities in debate were not allowable The other gentlemen had arisen to a question ot privilege but such was not tbe case with Mr Gies The Speaker ruled that in making an ex planation the gentleman Mr Gies must con fine himself strictly to the rules Mr Gies rtsuming said that in reference to the lateness of the presentation of the char ter before the Legislature Mr Baker alone tjoz to ulaiue Hte had had the matter In his keeping and had kept quiet about it until this late day in the session and bad always postponed all questions relating to tbe char ter Conely moved to indefinitely postpone further consideration of tbe bill to revise the charter a motion that was heartily seconded by Mr Gies It no one dissenting thb fish BILL The bill appropriating $7000 to the
