what tho sentiments Of his constituents
were on this subject, nor did it matter to
him. So far as his vote on this question
might affect him, hereafter, it was matter
of indifference to him. He was sent up
here against his protest, and he had no de-
sire to come up here again next winter
He had thought we could get along with
out an extra session, and he had said that
he would not vote for an adjourned session.
He did not now know that we could not
get along well without an adjourned ses-
sion, but ho had confidence in the state
ments of the members Of the Finance Com
mittee. He did not profess to understand
the difficulties with which they had to con.
tend, but believing them honest and sin
cere, and believing they understood the
matter better than himself, he had about
concluded TO do what he had heretofore
said he would not do, namely, vote for an
adjourned session.
Mr.. Tanneyhill rose to question of priv
ilege. He said that he had been informed
that certain members of the Senate had
this morning been operating or attempting
to operate on members of this House on
the question now before the House by ap-
pealing to party prcjudices. He regarded
such conduct as mean and despicabe, and
a base assumption of power, and he warned
such gentlemen that unless they wanted to
experience an attack of the nose-bleed or a
hole made in their calfskin, they had better
keep away from him.
Mr.Robinson opposed an adjourned session
and made few remarks in support of his
position. He thought the arguments in fa-
yor of an adjourned session were unfair and
illogical He did not regard an adjourned
session rs necessary.
The question was then put on the amend
ment Of Mr. Hitchcock to substitute the
goth Of March for The 26th, and lost.
Mr.. Robinson then moved to amend by
adjouruing sine die on the 26th of March,
which was lost The question was then
put on the resolution to adjourn on the 26th
of March, to meet on the first Monday in
January, 1861, and carried, Yeas 81, nays

county.

of the day, which was the third reading of

clusively to the doctors. Pending this dis
