BuckhannOn having received ma
jority of all the votes cast, the blank in
the bill was filled with that place. The
committee then arose and reported its
action to the House.
Mr.. BLAIR spoke in favor of deliber-
alton and reflection before the members
of tho House should finally act upon
this proposition. He believed that if
the Capital were located at Buckhan-
non, the people would rebuke them Sc
verely for it, and would send differ
ent class Of representatives. here next
winter.
Mr.. PARKER then moved to strike
out of the bill all after the enacting
clause and insert, as a substitute, tho
proposition made by the citizens of
Wheeling, being the substance of the
memorial which we published a few
days ago. The memorial was read by
the Clerk, when Mr.. PARKER enforced
tho proposition contained therein in a
few remarks, concisely summing up
the immense financial embarass-
ments now weighing, like anight-mare,
upon our people, and the wisdom of ac-
cepting the proposition which tempo
rarily relieves them of the necessity of
shouldering the additional burden Of
building the State Capitol buildings.
On the Gloss of Mr.. P.'s speech, Mr.
NEWLIN moved the previous question,
which motion was sustained. After sew
eral Intellectual attempts, the House
finally adjourned.
