they to-day took q recess untn Monday evening.
This action does not exhibit any particular
anxiety on their part 10 hurry through with bust

tion 10 separate finally on 5th OF May still lies
on the table There Is not the slightest chance OF
getting through by this time, and am fearful that

moor or the House before we hear the last rap Of
