SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE THB NEW YORK HERALD.
ALBANY, May 81, 1853.
The Senate occupied the morning session in the third
reading OF blls and pasipg quite number of unimpor
tant ones left from the regular session. There
very little discussion upon any; Senators voted upon
them from conscenciousness of duty and justice.
Mr.. COOLEY introduced bill amending the law relative
to savings banks which prohibits any person from being
at the time trustee director in more than one
savings bank and that the law shall not SO construed
as prevent any from acting oco
tee director In any more when required du-
ring membership in any other Incorporation.
The canal question up in the House, upon mo-
ton made by Mr. West to take from the Committee Of
the Whols his resolutions for amending the constitution
which were under consideration at the close the regu-
lar session. and to refer them back the Canal Commit
tee of which he is chairman for amendment The friends
of the Senate scheme resisted the notion declaring It
OF order but the Speaker decided the motion order An
appeal taken, and the Speaker was sustained by
large majority. An amendment to the motion to re-
commit was made BY Mr. Ittejohn, that the subject be
referred to the Committee Of the Whole. Upon this
debate of two and half hours occurred Those who took
bate but they feared the subject was referred to the
Canal Committee that when their report should be re-
ceived the previous question would be sprung and no
opportunity given for discussion upon the great ques
ton involved Mr.. Shaw said it was entirely useless
to prevent the matter going to the canal committee
it would there in spite of all opposition which may be
raised against it, and the West resolutions as proposed to
be amended, will be amended and will pass the House.
Mr.. s. knew all this, BECAUSE said he, I'VE have
counted the votes We shall pass them here send them
TO the senate where they will be rejected them said
Mr. s. shall he exactly the spot where we were at
the commeH cement of the regular session. when joint
committee proposed but rejected in this House. We
shall adopt these resolutions, and the Senate hope
said he will reject them when committee of conference
OF the two houses will perfect plan to finish canals
upon which can all unite. The hour for taking a
recess arrived before any question taken Mr. Shaws
PLAIN tax maoe several OF the members stare IS they
believed he spoke from authority when he said the votes
had been counted.
The debate resumed after dinner in the House. upon
Mr. Vests notion and continued until O'Clock. when
motion made and carried to refer the Vanderbilt
and West propositions both back to the Canal Committee
ments in his hand. He stated that they had been sub
mtted to majority Of the committee who had to
them but he was well aware that amendment could
oe made upon which the entire committee could agree.
The HOUSE. however, thought the minority not well
treated in not being consulted, and motion Of Mr.
Hadey the whole committee ordered to meet con.
suit, and report to morning. There be no
question but as amended they will pass the House.
