VIRGINIA LEGLSLAIURE.
HOUSE If DEL EGATE.S.


icdtW"dy, FeorudrD =.
The engrossed bill for equaiizing the
representation IN the Senate, and equali-
zing the land-tax, came before the House
of Delegates, wiena motion was made
by Mr.. Hay to lay it on the iable-A dis
cussion ensued, whenvarious reasons were
urged for IL against the proposition. MIR.
Blackburn, the father of the bill, wished
II to go on 10 :" tie regions ojore," (as he
called the Senate,) with the avowed wish
of defeating the Convention Fill, now be-
fore that body-Mr Hay wished the bill!
to lie on the table, and avowed desire
to prevent il from defeating the Conven-
tion-Upon taking the question, il was
carried, ayes ~, noes 7I-And the bill of
course lies ON the table.
The bill for incorporating a company
to form the Manchester Canal came on
upon the question of engrosSing it-whcn
much discussion ensued upon u motion of
MIR. Marshail's to postpone the bill TO the
3!st of March-whicb was lost. hIr. Ro-
bertson (ot Richmond) then moved to
postponeit till Monday, TO give the James
River Company an opportunity of ap-
pearing at the bar of the House by coun-
sci. On motion of Mr.. Smyth, the qucs-
ton was divided, and is was taken first on
the motion tor postponement, which was
lost--so, the bill was ordered TO be en-
crossed, and sent 10 the third read
ing.
The House then resolved itself into \
COMMITTEE of the Whole on the Bill res
pecting the arrears of taxes due on delin-
| quent iands-varlOus amendments were
agreed TO, which were ordered to be prin-
| ted.
