what might be the direction of this session unty ,
possessed some Information in relation 10 what mg.
be expected from the committee 10 whom the rt.
proposition Of the PresIdeuts message had been fNr

and in his opinion the impracicahlc project submtt
by the President Tor the arrangement aud regulation
the fiscal concerns of the government was the onI,
project to be discussed the session could be terminated
| IN a very brief space of time The project was one
which no administration could carry at Tins time, ane
under the circumstances IN which the county Wa
now pnced no majority in this house could undertake
seriously 10 urge II in the simple form IN which h'p
/ peared in the message. Gentlemen would not dsr
urge the measure seriously for the appreciation Of

sitions embraced in the message. On some OF No

Upon the other great question ndyertcd 10 IN Z.
