so.
Mr.. DnreH moved to adjourn-negatived
ayes 49,
The question then being on the following
iCSoiullOn.
" Resolved, That measures ought to be
Immediately taken for placing the country in
more complete state of defence
Mr.. Dana observed, that as this would
probably be nearly unanimous vote, he
wished the full sense of the House to be ex-
pressed on it, and therefore called for the
yeas and nays, which the house agreed to
take.
But upon the suggestion of several mem
bers the taking them was dispensed with by
common consent
And the question being put on the resolu-
ton, the House replied Aye" with AN I'M
divided voice. And when it was required
that any one who objected should answer
" Mono reply was made.
The non-intercourse resolution was refer
red to the committee who reported it, with
instructions to bring in bill or bills in pur-
suance of it.
The last resolution was referred to the
committee on our military and naval estab-
lishments;
And then the House adjourned.
Much desultory debate took place on the
points of order, &c. in this days business
which not being material to the main questi-
on, is not noticed.
