a POINT OFPABLIA5EENrAEY LAW.


4 POINT OF PABLIAJKENFAE;Y Law.
There was a very pretty point Of par
liamentary Law under discussion in the
Senate yesterday. The facts, as we IN
derstaud them, are as follows:
a bill to repeal the conventional in
terast law passed the House Of Repre-
5sntatives and went to the Senate.
There it was rejected on the first read
ing. A motion was entered to recon-
slider the vote rejecting the bill Pre-
vious TO all this, however, a similar
bill had been introduced In the
Senate and passed two readings.
It came up on its third reading
IN the Senate after the House bill had
been received there, rejected, and the
motion entered to reconsider. On this
third reading Of the Senate bill It was
rejected by the Senate. Yesterday the
motion to reconsider the rejection Of
the Senate bill was called up, and upon
this the point OF parliamentary law
was raised. There was much said
about a former agreement or IN
derstanding among Senators as to
the status IN qu0 Of the two
bills, but, as this had nothing to do
with the question at Issue, we pass over
that part Of the discussion. It was
urged by Senator's Overton, Wilson,
Haynes and Wade that the rejection
Of the Senate bill was fatal to the SIM
liar bill from the House. a contrary
view was taken by Senator's Logan,
Ouarles and Jones. The discussion
was interesting and able. Speaker
Payne decided that the passage
Of the House bill, after the
rejection Of the Senate bill
upon the same subject, would be
