Mr.. WATSON presented bill to amend
an act in reference to allowing commissions
to the General Agent and Storekeeper OF the
Penitentiary; which was referred.
On motion OF Mr.. ELLIOTT, Senate Joint
resolution for the appointment OF special
Joint committee on fish and game was taken
up and agreed to, and Mr.. ELLIOTT directed

and put on record. What would the world
say Of our people after baving elected a
man fer four years to be our Governor
now to refuse such proposition as this
He thought it but just that the message
should be printed.
Mr. BROOKE said there was nothing in the
proposition that could shock the political
feelings Of any one. He thought it would
he piece OF propriety to print it. He said
that the two houses Of the General Assem-
bly, had appointed a special joint committee,
and they had made the Inauguration Of the
Governor public display, and the people
had right to know what the opinions OF
the Executive were. under the sanction OF
the General Assembly by its regularly-ap-
pointed committee. He wanted the message
to 90 to bis people as vindication OF his
course. He understood from the message
one thing-namely, recommendation to
the General Assembly to inquire into our
ability to pay. He hoped the message would
be printed.
Mr.. FULKERsON said the Governor came
here on his own accord and innovated a
time-honored custom. Who ever heard OF
a Governor Of Virginia being inaugurated
with the booming Of cannon, parade OF the
military, and such fantastic display? IT
had heretofore been the custom from the
foundation of the Government until now
for the Governor to come quietly into ofhce
and then communicate his views and re-
Communications to the General Assembly.
He went on to say again that the speech
was not an official document, and it would
be improper to give it the sanction OF the
Senate. The demonstration OF yesterday
had been gotten up at the expense OF some.
body, but he didn't know who. Ii Rich.
mond wanted to have this message sent out
to the provinces let her do so at her own
expense, as she did the splendid military
display OF yesterday. Ifany senator thought
the sentiments unworthy, of senator on
this floor let him make the most of it; but
so far as he was concerned he didn't intend
to vote away the public money for such q
purpose. !"
Mr.. SMITH now presented resolution
calling on the Governor for copy OF his in
auguraI and providing for its being printed
Mr. TYLER asked Mr.. Smith whether the
message was the property OF the Gov
ernor?
, Mr.. SMITH said + was.
MIR. FuLKERsoN asked Mr.. SMITH il the
message was to be made part OF the prop
erty Of the State, would it also become
part of the assets OF the State? lSensa
ton.
Mr.. SMITH replied that it might become
very important matter; that as to the moral
sentiment OF the message, it was OF vast I'M
portance. To his friend from Washington
he would say that it contained some valuable
.physic--a lesson On public morals-Whlch
he thought the Senator from Washington
stood much in need OF.
MIR. LEE said that he thought the message
ought TO be printed for the very reasons

favor OF economy and retrenchment, and
wanted the debt settled decisivelE, but de-
sired the proceedings in relation thereto to
be regular and careful. He preferred to
await the report of the Finance Committee,
knowing that it was thoroughly inycsti-
eating this subject. He thought it would be
wrong now to attempt to take from Mr..
BARBOUR 1.-THE chairman Of the Finance Com
mitteel the very work he was chosen for
his fitness to do.
Mr.. WALKER OF Chesterfield moved to
amend General ECuoLs's resolution by add
ing the following:
"That the special committee ascertain the
precise gross amount received by the State Of
Virginia by loan from her public creditors,
and further to ascertain the precise gross
amount paid by the State OF Virginia as IN
terest upon the same to the end OF the pre-
sent fiscal year."
Mr.. WALKER spoke in favor OF his amend
ment. He regarded it as highly important
TO the House-he knew it was necessary to
himself before he could make up his mind
as to the equities OF the debt. He wished
to do no man, no creditor, an Injustice.
He wanted to ascertain the amount OF mo-
ney Virginia has had from her creditors,
and what she has paid them.
Mr.. BARBOUR said the Finance Committee
had already partly obtained the information
desired by both gentlemen. They would
have such a statement before the committee
tomorrow morning. He would, however,
not desire to be understood as opposing the
appointment OF the special committee; he
would, on the contrary, be glad II every
member would investigate the matter Tor
himself, but would not have the House
commit itself in advance to the authorlta-
tiveness OF any statement.
Mr.. NICHE moved to lay the whole SUBJ
jecs on the table. Lost-ayes, 50; noes, ~.
General ECHoLs said he bad no oDlectlon
to Mr.. WALKERS amendment. Replying TO
Mr.. HARvIE, he said that he was not aware
until this moment that the Finance Conn
mittee had this special subject under con-
sideration. There was no purpose 10 nave
undue haste. He wanted to make all proper
progress, but did not propose TO force the
subject prematurely. General ECHoLs also
expressed his willingness to amend the
resolution to remove the objection OF Mir.
BARBOUR. a..
Mr.-STEyESs moved to commit the reso-
lution to the Finance Committee. Lost
ayes, 80 !; noes, 53.
Mr. NICHE thought this subject properly
belonged to the Finance Committee, espe-
