amended by the Senate, pass OH the

Mr.. Caldwell hoped the motion
would not prevail as the bill had not
been impaired in the least by the
amendments made to it by the Senate
and as the time was short and the
session drawing to a close, he consider
ed any further delay on this bill as
dangerous to its passage. Itwas law
the people wanted, and as the Senate
had pq6DedsA resolution to adjourn on
th6 18th inst, ~ which, d0ubsless. the
House would cOncAr, he therefore
trusted the bill would be acted upon
now and the Senate amendments con-
Cured in.

ordered printed, the latter to be in
italics, and made special order for to-
morrow afternoon at p. m.
