port Of the committee, by inserting the words
DO rejected Mr.. Barton supported the
motion ut length. Aud after opposition, the
house adjourned without taking the question
On .uOadsy, tie question on rersrsing the
report OF the committee was taken, and de-
eided In the afRrmative-ayes 76. noe, So. .
The house then took up the subject Of the
Bank Deposites. and after much debate, the
report was rc-committed, together with va
rious projects of Individual members.
On Tuesday. the committee reported; and
after some debate on the necessity OF imme.
date action, the house ordered the report.
and Mr.. Gilmers amendment, TO be printed.
Mr.. rutherford reported bill for the bet
ter Organization Of the militia Its contents
am unable to give you at present.
Some discussion took place on the bill FOR
establishing an Asylum for the Deaf and
Dymb.
The whole Of Wednesday, was spent in dis
eussion upon the Deposite question; and the
house, before it adjourned. was very near
getting into confusion. The vote OF censurc
upon the President, for his removal Of the de-
Posiies, was q decided onc-sl to a.. The
vote upon tho subject OF the unconstituiionaIi-
~ ofthe Bank, was not so fair lest of strength.
&c to SD rs several members voted against
the resolution on that head, because they did
not wish TO blend he f,co subjects
when the house adjourned, on motion OF
Mr. Booker, who thought a nights reflection
would be useful, motion Of MIR. Colston was
pending, for the indefinite postponemen, of
the whole subject.
On Thrrsdsy, Mr.. Colston renewed his mo-
ton, and much interesting debate occurred.
Among those who took part, Mr.. Janney
made a speech Of great ability, which es-
tablished for him, with all parts Of the house
aud auditory, a high reputation. BY clear
and comprehensive review Of tho political
history OF the country, he clearly showed
that the resolution OF Mr.. Stevenson, which
stated that Virginia had Frequently and So
lemnly declared opposition to Bank Of the
United States, was not correct in point OF
fact No vote Of opposition had been passed
since 1909. Therefore, the remark was not
correct, that Virginia had ITeqsenfly passed
her opinion on that subject.
Some sharp skirmishing took place between
Messrs. Garland OF Meeklenburr. Stevenson
Of sPottsylvania, Booker OF Amelia. Roane
OF Hanover, Faulkner. and Jones OF Eliza
beth City. Mr.. RoaDe made an animated
defence OF the Presidents course generally.
though he eensured bis conduct in references
to the dePOsites. Mr.. Faulkner's reply to
this was vehement and severe and Mr.. Roaue,s
retort somewhat in the same spirit.
2 Ar Colston finally Withdrew his motion 70
postpone indefinitely, at the request Of many.
and upon the suggestion Of VIZ. Brown Of Pc
tersburg, who proposed to separate she sub
jects. and TO present new set Of resolutions.
By which the full sense OF the house could be
more accurately and properly ssearsained.
Mr.. Wilson Of Bottetourt renewed the no.
tion to postPOne-apd II was finally reject

On Friday, after the mornings business.
Mr.. GilmeF moved to reeommit the resoIu-
tons on the subject Of the deposi,es, With
n view to separate the opposite question from
the charter question. This motion occupied.

much Of the discussion was made On of
personalities and matter entirely irrelevant.
