The Joint rules were received from the Senate, con-
tanning the restriction on printing
Mr UNDERWOOD novel that the House now concur
III the amendments.
Thc debate on the motion was continued at some
length, and opposed by Messrs Underwood, Gushing,
Mnhner Gilbert, Van Valkenburgh and Others, on
the ground that they hold themselves responsible TO
their constituents and not to the Senate and for
ordering what books and printing the House might
deem proper. The House should keep The control
OF the matter IN ats own hands If the members of
the House held over TWO years as 90 Senator's there
mIlht be some equality In adopting these amend
mems.
Mr.. GILBERT said he found that the members Of
the preceding Legislature had voted themselves the
Revised Statutes of the State the Constitutional
Debates, the Index to the General Laws, large
number of copies Of the Documentary History OF
the State and how many more books he dld not

Mr Moss said, the senate amendments were right
in principle, without any IeiereIce 10 what any pre-
vi0us Legislatures have done. We can justify our
selves by referring as precedent to what our pre-
deces rors have done. But is IT right The amend
ment made by the Senate was the striking out OF the
provision IN relation to ordering 5OOkstO the amount
of $l00 Its main object was to prevent the ordering
OF large numbers Of DooEs-such as the Natural HIS
tory OF the Stately hasty legislators involving, as
they did, an expense OF $40 600. 1t resolutions for
