inquiry whether there any companies regiments
organized composed of unnaturalzed foreigners aud if
so, TO disband them. Mr. W. said the law was clear
and he simply wished it enforced.
Dir. AiTkkS moved n division of the resoluton-Arst
whether any such companies, &c, were organized,
Mr.. MrSpy would decidedly vote for the first part of
Mr.. wATERBuRY-The law says the Adjutant General
shall dsband companies, Sc not properly organized.
Mr. MusDY-Then there is need OF this resolution.
MT RiCktRsos-The inquiry was not proper; and il on
inquiry it was found that companies improperly organ
lied did exist, then they shoud be dsbanded.
Mt PtTTY-There are such organizations, and they
should be disbanded. The Adjutant General would
doubtless be pleased with expression from the House.
The law IL clear enough already
The first part OF the resolution adopted.
The second coming up,
Mr. AITKES moved to lay the whole subject on tho ia
bic. Lost
The resolution then adopted, (se to 25) so as to

panies at present organized organized in viola
this State and il any such organized that he take

Mr. Mcguire called up the invitation OF the Ten Gov
TO the legislature to visit the charitable insttu
tions of the city of New York.
Mr. LEIGH wished every nemNer to see these institu-
tons. They were noble monuments OF the munifcence
of the city Yet he opposed to having this invita-
ton accepted The money placed in the hands of these
the this ot IS
IT will absorb at least 81 300 If the members do not
belong the other of these classes they should
not accept it. There is great suffering in New York.
Aims being raised to aid the poor, and coming up
even from the slaves of Alabama It would be sh anne
prostitute these funds for such purpose Besides,
these entertainments do not always result to the honor
of the legislature: There are always hsngerson who
crowd themselves into these and behave
shsmefully. They would do 50 now. BE read from
New York paper the opinion of one OF the Governors
against the invitation The money expended would be
taken out of the mouths Of the hungry
Mr.. PETTY read the opinion Of another of Cover
tha 49,
commended.
Mr.. wYGANr moved to indefinitely postpone the sub
Ject.
Mr.. A G. WILLIAMS trusted the invitation would be
accepted twas usual compliment and useful, in
enabling the members to understand the noble charac-
ter OF the charitable institutions Of that city Probably
not ten Of the members have visited those
institutions. They cannot, therefore, act intelli
gently they rwise would when questions relating
to them come up. Mr. W. urged his views at length,
Mr.. Fl, IL opposed the acceptance of the invitation
because the Legislature not sent here TO waste time
in jaunts and junketings Business pressing upon
the House, and it should be attended to. The visit
might he pleasant; but duty forbade It,
Mr.. RuopEs thought the invitation might be accepted
with proprety be beyond the usual day Of adjourn
ment, ard IT no wines are furnished
Mr. BoYNToS concurred in the opinion that the Legis
lature had no tine to waste in the manner proposed
Mr. 0KsrFE thought it would be we'll to accept this
invitation Nothing would be lost to the people If their
allowed themselves recreation. He
answered of the arguments urged against accepting
Mr. MrNRoE would be willing accept this invitation,
for other to show that the peoples repre-
sentatves behave themselves on occasions like that
proposed.
Mr. MuYDAY hoped the invitation might be accepted.
The visit would be alike profitable and interesting to the
members
Mr.. HEADLEY did not care personally whether this in
vitaoD accepted mott but he thought improper
to pass otloquy upon the gentlemen who had proered
/ the invitation.
Mr. WATERBURY, did not think the Ten Governors had
right to expend 81 500 for the purpose proposed They
| could that appropriately.
MT A1KEN said this appropriation would not be taken
from any charitable fund.- but from contingent fund.
He repeled the imputation improperly upon the
| members Of the last legislature.
Mr. MAGUIRE had no fear that the members Of Maine
Law House would Disgrace themselves. II they thought
they would, they should, by all means vote against
this resolution
Mr. BAKER said the House. would before the session
closed, be called upon to make appropriations to
of the institutions members were invited to visit. Il
was quite proper therefore, that the invitation should
lie accepted Mr. u. also rereled the charge that the
last visit of the Legislature was diseputable.
| Mr. Cocks moved that the expense Of the visit be
borne by the individual members.
Mr. $. b. COLI deemed the invitation eminently pro.
| per, and its acceptance right.
Mr.. COLEMAN believed that the PRESENT Legislature
could visit New York without dsgracing or
the State.
Mr. PECK spoke in favor OF accepting the invitation
Mr. STEBHIss had heard good argument in favor of
accepting this invitation, except that would afford
| members information But from the hnsty manner in
which this visit must be gone through with very little
real useful intelligence could be acquired Besides the
House had time 10 spare for this purpose purpose
which, judging from the tone Of the papers last year.
| was not creditable to the House.
| Mr.. 0'KgTg moved the previous question. Carried
| and the invitation was accepted.
