Mr. SADLER thought It violated anoth-
or clause of the Constitution, which pro-

Constitutional as the bill. l, UT

he had been Senator, voted on all sides Of
this question, not being satisfied as to the
constitutional question, and wishing, as
far rs practicable, to oblige all who have
local interests to subserve. But he had
become convinced of the impropriety Of
sncb sneoiI legislation, and should here
after vote against it. ''.i h.-'
