Mr.. TURHLY called for statement OF the reasons
for making such a motion.
Mr.. MORTON replied that lt was for the purpose
Of adding these papers aud presenting them At the
ne xt session
Mr.. TuRsEY objected to this system Of with
drawing papers, when perhaps adverse report had
been made upon them. He thought II adoiu9na testi-
mony could be produced could be submitted without
Withdrawing pagers already on hc, from which Il was
too often the course to abstract that on which an sd
ycr.e report had been made.
Mr.. UPHAN hoped the Senate would not permit
,lese papers 20 be Withdrawn Perhaps there had
been sn adverse report upon them. He knew II had
been too much the practice 10 withdraw papers when
an adverse report made upon them and present
the case again subsequent session on new set OF
adavs oil the papers that were unayoraole being ao
stracted A case had come 10 his knowledge during
the session jas closed In which claim was set up for
arrears OF pay and commutaion OF paymaser, which
was reported upon adversely here and rejected but at
that same session bill passed through the other
House, the claim set up being Tor services as captain
When that b came the Senate he examined the Me
for the papers which ,hs, persons claim as
paymasicr was rejected aud he found they hsd been
distracted He hoped the Senate would not longer
tolerate such system unless very good reason should
be given.
Mr.. YuLEE said there was no objection 10 the
resolution lying over.
Ii was laid over accordingly.
On motion OF Mr. WEBSTER, the Senate pro
ce.ded 10 the confederation OF Executive business ;
and a.er time spent therein, the doors were re-
opened
Aud the Senate adjourned
