 Report of the minority on the same subject read.
 MT. ALLYN Urom Hartf0rd) m wed to amend the majority report and resolutions by substituting those of the minority.
 Mr Palmer hoped the amendment would not pre- vail, as the most of the preamble of :he minority was hooked from the preamble of the resolutions adopted by the last legislature. He wanted something new.
 MP hnn hnOP Inc nfInHnn from East Haddam avow that he could not follow ln the same course of legislation two years in success"n. My BUTLER said the reason why the preamble was borrowed, was that il embodied the sentments enter~ iained by the m nori'y of the committee aud the House, by adopting t!'h amendment, would have an opportunity of re-affrmng the doctrines which they sanctioned at the last session he was not aware that the opinion of the majority on the subject had under gone any obange; as their opinions at that session correspond with the minority at this session, o course no one o: the majority would be found fighting hls
 MT. ALLYN of Hartford, said the resolutions of the majority were very general in their nature; and he benefit the interests of New England, to sustain, the free trade of the South. As the minority report and resolutions sustained the views of the legislature of lS42 with much larger dc moc:atic majority tha at present, he did not see how the present majority could vote down their doc rines, and moved that when the question is taken Il be taken by yeas and nays.
 Mr. SEYMOUR considered the resolutions on these subjects beyond the reach of our lcgislation ve ry cheap matters He thought both series of reson. ilons were very good They both seem in favor Ot a. j"d'cio"s tariff, and he foped no member in !a- vor of an injudicious one Previous question called and sustained on the amendment yeas 74 nays 9l so the amendment was lost.

 Resolutions condemnng the repndatiou of State. debts and the assumption of the same by the geneIak Government, taken up.
 Mr. GAIpIN said that when these resolutions were floating about among Hs last evening, he at trst ih,Alf D,,sk kn Rkt them genuine reality. He was appointed early in the sess ion on committee to enquire into, and report upon this subject and the first notice he had since re- ceived on the subject the presence of this report among us. He could only say that if this repoF, hs. the child of that committee, he was happy to say it came into being when he was not there He vensnr- to the notice of legislature. The report is full of sound aud fury, signifying nothing" The report should be referred to the committee on education, and the resolutions to the committee on the insane
 MT. BUTLER said he believed the report was legi. Imatey horn. He was pro sent at the time. bnt then he thought it was monster. Some parts of the re- port is utterly un,ntelpihle and other parts are strange and una accountable.
 MT. Curtis said he observed there is an alusion il the report to four classes of who in avor of assumption.-of which the 3d class mentioned ars " bulls and bears.'' As this is new class of men. he wished to enquire somewhat as to their habits ard whether they are more dangerous than the other class scs mentioned
 Mir. Butler said there is much rich material in this report to: such as are curious in these matters Some things in it to he sure. worth preserving but as specimin ot our intelligence and our political wis> dom he could not that it should go out to the world with the sanction of this House. It has in it, neither grammar, nor truth. nor sense 1t charges, State indebtedness to the United States Bank-a charge as ridiculous as it is unfonnded. But more than that. the U. Bank was chartered by Repub. lican Congress, and sustained by Republican Pres. ident. And he hoped that this House would not take any course which should censure republican meas-. ures.
 MT. Palmer thought the resolutions were in good spirit and tenor.
 MT. Perkins moved to amend by erasing the lst resolution, and sustained his motion at length.
 MT. Palmer also sustained the report and resolu- tions at length
 Mir. GaIpin hoped this piece ef composition would not % cut as the work of this House. He would, vote for resolutions condemning repudanon and as- sumption but then they ought to he expressed in Ene fish. That was not the case with these resolutions, and he moved the indefinite postponemen, of the whole subject.
 MT. Strong was R favor of the posiponement. He thought that the hest if not the only way to dispose of this thing. Much had been said about killing and burying certain subjects. We had already lreal- ed several matters, of about as much consequence this in the way proposed. We had some case of the kind, last evening some funerals among which were the arms, &c, disposed of under military ders." Now here we have matter of the same kind, not at all concerning the body of our consituents.- It should receive the fate of those other matters- Some thing IS said in the report about bulls and bears.'' These are strange animals, and we ought to put them as far oil as possible, perhaps 10 pace them m the maDgere. tAt this time four elephap.s appeared in front of the State House, 'set music the motion was lost
 sustained yeas and nays ordered.
 Between 20 and 30 asked to be excuted from vo- ting granted.
 MT. Minor asked to he excused House refused to.
