The Laes-We invite the serious attention
of our Legislators to the article below, wvhic~h
we extraict from te Washington Chronicle It
seems that a multiplicity of laws is peculiar to
-free covernments. To this there would lbe no
great objectiotn. if thsee laws were ntot ofien ab
eturd and contradictory. There is no stability in
our laws. In many of the Stastes they as-e ever

is not so the next. Acts are passed and repeat
