Tho government i.s thought to have this law under consideration and there i.s lalk of a commission to get evidence to put before them iu regard to the working of the law. The work in the house wa.s unproductive of any great show to the man in the gallery, until Friday night, and then the proceedings were of a most spectacular kind.
