TuscALOosA. Dec. Iilh, IS45

 The Senate has adopted the bill therefore passed by the House, 10 alter and amend the laws of the charter of incorporation of the city of Mobile.

 A large portion of this morning has been devoted 10 the matter of the relief of Charles Hawkins, touching his conviction for peniteniary ofence.- Mr. Rice made the opening speech in favor ofrelief he WIS followed by Mr. Davis, on the same side. MT. Hubbard spoke against lhe relief and wAs fol- lowed by MT. GarrotI, of Perry. who made long and very able speech against the policy of granting relief to convcts by the legislature. Mir. G. was followed by Mr. Walker of Benton, in favor ef tue relief Mir. w. is young member. and made a handsome maiden speech. IL was follos ed by Mir. Porter on the same side, and Mr. Hubbard again spoke. Mir. Cooper made explanilory remark s when Ihe taken 10 concur in The report of the judiciary committee, which had recommended to the house 10 refuse e relief, and the house refused to concur by vote of 22 ayes and 68 nays. Mir. Hubbard then gave notice that he would bring in d general bill, repeating the trammes now throw n around the execuIve and the biIl for he relief of Charles s. Hawkins ordered 10 be ehgrosse l.. Thus, two days have beea consumed by the petit n of this criminal, and fourteen hun lred dollars of the peoples money expended matter of purely a private and personal character. This system ofle- gislation calls loudly for the condemnation of the | people.

 Mir. Browne, oi your county. expressed desire during this discussion that general bill should be passed by which the restrictions now thrown around the executive, should be repealed, in order that pei-

 tons of this character should not be addressed 10 the legislature but ihe Governor. That clause of our law which throws the par'oaing power Gin efeci) upon the judge and two thirds of the jury, ought un- doubtedly to be repealed, unless the people Of the State should be willing that fourth of ihe session of he legislature should ai their expense) be deyot- | cd 10 the consideration of relief petitions.

 In the Seeate to-day, d bill was passed to abolish monthly Courts, so far as appeals from justices of the peace concerned, for Mobile county. | Also, bill 10 incorporate the Grand Lodge for the State of Alabama, al Mobile, of Odd Fellows. Also, bill to enancpaie Henry Flemming, a slave your city. This lasl bill met wnh cohside- | rabe oppostion--Dent of Tuscaoosa, Morrisett | and Winston opposing it.. Il was passed however, through the effort and explanations of Mir. Seawell, your very attentive and industrious Senaior. The removal question has mol been touched for the

 last two days. That is evidently the all eng sing, l al absorbing question-every thing else, s interest," are swallowed up in lIe question of remo- val. There IS no telling yet what will he the result of the efforts that subject.
