er 80; Scattering ;. Whole vote i6s-necessarv
to choice -. SO MIR Wi,eher was dropped
There being still election Mr. Clendenin
moved the indefinite pcsiponemeni Of the Joint
order
Mr. Goodson said he hoped the Join; orier would
not be postponed. He thought il importan; ,bat
an election should be made; and to tina, end he
of red an olive bTanch-if his candidate could not
oe elected, he was willing to go for some good Wing
who came nearest to his own opinions
Mr. Dormau agreed with Mr. Clendenin that there
was now no prospect OF making an election and
therefore, he said, he hoped the order would be
postponed. IL could be renewed hereafter when
there seemed 10 be prospect OF making an cleo
ton. Before concluding. however, MIR u. said that
AT the request OF some friends around him. of both
parties, he would now move an Adjournment, which
would nave the same effect as an indefinite post
ponement-
The ayes and noes were called upon the motion.
and the House refused to adjourn-ayes AZ, noes
IS.
Mr. Cendenin now asked cave to withdraw his
motion to postpone. Some objection being made
MIR Gooison remarked that members see nd
afraid TO give the gentleman, whom he wished TO
nominate, fair chance Of election. There was a
good deal OF restless hummns and buzzns about.
so that the House was, he SAID, more like swarm
OF bees than an assembly Of gentlemen.
Leave being then granted, MIR Cendenin with
drew his motion, and then
MIR Goodson nominated James Mcdowell he
SAID, he regretted his inability TO make speech in
t,vo- OF Mr. Med but IN lieu thereof, be requested
the Clerk to read MIR McD's Princeton speech.
