CONVENTION.

| The joint order of the day on a Con-
yention being read, MIR. Colston moved
to postpone il, with view to act on the
Dueilins question.
Nj. Letter opposed postponement:
No ether question was as important as
this, and if the ]bill1passed, the people
ought to be early aprrised of the fact.
M, Christian OF Charles City support
ed the postponement. The report of
the committee on privileges aud Elec-
tons. touching the rigat of certain
members to seat mere. he thought ought
to bave precedence overall other ques-
tons.
Mr.. Wallace observed fha{ there Was
no other question involved in the report
than the right of member to his seat.
Had that right been suspended, prece-
dcnce might well be claimed. But the
member actually was in his seat. 1t
was an abstract question merely. The
Convention was an important question
affecting all.
Mr.. >hip hoped that the question sf-
fecting the PEoPLs would have prece-
dence. A question Of the magnitude
should not yield to courle sy.
Mr.. U3shur hope,i the Convention
bill would be taken up. He had long
amendments TO offer, which when of
fered, he would then be willing to lay
the whole subject for the present on the
table
Mr Colston then Withdrew his motion
ii at
Committee Of the Whole, Mr.. May in
the Chair. on the Convention Bill.
The Bill having been read from the
Chair, ar Mason Of Fairfax, moved
to amend the phraseology of the bill, by
requiring freeholders to vote for or a.
gainst the Convention, IN the county or
corporation of his residence only.
Mr.. Ship asking the motive of the a.
Dendment-. Mr. NJ. stated that its OBJ
ect was to prevent the same person
from voting on two or more freeholds
in as many counties, and to make proof
of his being freebooter, more attaina-
BILE by the sheriff.
.nr Colston said tfat as the Committee
of the Whole could not order the prin-
ting Of the amendments, be would move
that the Committee rise, and the amend
ments being offered to the House, might
then be printed.
The Speaker remarked that the course
proposed would be in order, and per-
haps be the most economical of the time
OF the House.
.Hr. Mason Of Frederick, opposed
the motion The object of the Conven-
ton Bill was a single one--to take the
sense of the people. This bill he thought
was fully competent to that end. LIZ
multifarious amendments were to be OF
fersd, he couid not at present appre-
bend how they could render this end
more attainable.

HOUSE OF DELEGATES.

HOUSE OF DELEGATES.
Yesterday, Gil Mr.. Epp's motion, the House
agreed to meet hereafter at TEN o'clock.
On Mr.. Nash's motion, committee was ap-
appointed 10 wait on and notify VIM. b. Giles
Esq. Jointly with committee Of the Senate, OF
his election to the Office of Governor. The
Chair appointed Messrs. Nash, Wilson, Epps,
Mason oil Frederick, Chalmers, Page, Wynn
and Hooe.
Mr. George offered the following: Whereas
certain members of the Executive Council have,
on different occasions, annexed 10 the certificate
Of members Of this House, an additional paper
setting forth various explanations made by such
members, as TO their opinions respecting the
operation Of the law for the suppresslng OF du-
cling, PASSED January, 1870
Resolued therefore, That this House disap
prove OF any member of the Executive Depart
ment annexing to the certificate OF qualification
Of any member OF this House, any paper or GER
liGcate whatever, containing an explanation or
construction which, in any manner, may have
the effect to impair the obligation or force OF
the oath required by the above recied act, 10
be taken by members Of this House before en-
tering upon the duties of office-this House be-
ing of opinion that the law above iecied has not
been modified, changed, or repealed since the
passage thereof
Mr.. Epps made an unsuccessful motion TO
lay the resolution on the table. Mr.. May NOV
ed to postpone its consideration until this day.
On this motion some conversation took place.
in which Messrs George, Colston, Winston,
Douthat and Bryce took part. The motion
prevailed. In this conversation which took
place, Mr. Douthat expressed the hope he had
INDUCED, that after the decision Of this delicate
question by the House, il had beeen put 10 rest
He thought the preamble and resolution in
some degree impeached the motives of the
members to whom it referred, as well as cen.
sure on the Executive: Why this course was
pursued he was at loss to know. He assured
Mr.. George that his opinion or even the opini-
on Of the House, would not regulate his conduct
in this respect. He should appeal to his own
conscience as his guide. Mr. George remark
ed that in offering the resolution he had not in
tended TO wound the feelings of any member;
but that he had acted under sense OF duty
The Speaker laid before the House letter
from the Governor, communicating an act OF
the Maryland Legislature, amending the act
relating TO the Ohio and Chesapeake Canal
Referred.
Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1827-02-16

cond bond was dated the sth of August, 1878,
the same day on which the first was datec. AZ
what precise period this bond was received at
the Engineer Department, is not known, but, if
the testimony of General Swift and MAJOR Van
deventer is correct, il must have been early in
the Fall Of 1918.
The sum of $4,000 was drawn from the
Treasury, il is supposed, upon verbal requi5i-
ton, as there is nothing written upon the sub
iect. This, however, previous TO the date Of
this transaction, was sometimes the case, as ap.
pears from the testimony OF General owiit, and
from the communication Of the Secretary OF the
Department Of War to the committee, dated The
10Th day of Feb. 1927.
The Committee think it further necessary 10
state, that the certificate Of the Recorder OF New
York, which was attached 10 the first or the can
celed bond, is not a,tachedto the second or new
bond, but that, when copy oil TINS BOND was
sen, 10 a committee Of the House, III the year
1922, the copy Of the certificate OF the Old was
attached to the new bond, and Certified by az
o fficer to be true copy. The manner IN which
this irreg uarity happened, is accounted Tor in
the testimony Of Captain Smith. 1t does not
appear, in any part fthis inquiry, that the Uni
ted States sustained any injury, although there
were some irregularities.
After taking all the testimony which could
| be had, calculated to throw light upon the sub
iect, the committee feel it their duty TO state 10
the House, that there is nothing in the evidence
walraniug belief, that tends TO induce e
ven the slightest, suspicion, that Mr.. Calhoun.
was, either directly or indirectly, concerned in
any contract made with the Department OF War.
whilst he was Secretary CT that Department, or
tha, he participated in the profits Of any such
contract, or that ne connived at any such pari-
| cioauon in any OF his subordinate officers, and
that, in their opinion, there are no grounds for
any further proceedings.
