The Legislature.

--In the Senate, yesterday, several House bills were received, but not acted upon.

Mr. Newman, of Mason, submitted a resolution, which was adopted, directing the Committee for Courts of Justice to inquire and report whether any legislation or enactment of laws is necessary to prevent aliens, who refuse to contribute their services to our cause, from acquiring title to real estate in this Commonwealth.

The Senate then went into secret session on a communication from the Governor.

In the House, without the transaction of any important business, the body went into secret session.

At 5 o'clock P. M. both Houses renewed their session in secret.
