State Senate Reconsiders Pay Raise and Adopts $150
The State Senate reconsiders the resolution for legislators' compensation and adopts an amendment setting the extra pay at 150. A bill to cut Supreme Judicial Court judges on vacancies is reported, and a bank tax bill halves the rate. In the House the Governor's arms purchase message is read, the Goodyear patent resolution is sent to pass, and the Boston Lowell railroad merger bill with Farlow's substitute is rejected.

Senator Sherman and the Fugitive Slave Bill Debate
The article criticizes Senator Sherman for backing the Fugitive Slave bill and defending the 1793 laws. It contrasts his oath and country obligations with Sumner’s abolition stance, citing Dayton Journal’s remark that Sherman proposed extending slavery’s lease, and questions the 1793 extension amid slavery’s disappearance in many states.
