Was upon the moilun OF the honorable gentleman
from Maryland. (Mr. TnoM,s,) 10 reconsider the
vote taken this morning, To the end that that hon
ornhle gentleman might mo,c (as he h,pl promised
10 do) the question whether the House rouid COM

sacred right OF petition, and secure the object Of
all those who felt duly Nolioilous Tor the rights and
