O'Clock this morning. No decided action
was taken ON the Statham nomination, and

iOuncd TO meet at noon tomorrow.
Owing to the late hour at which the sem
ate adjourned last night there was

OF senators. When the journal was read
this morning, Mr.. Hill, Of Georgia, offered
the following resolutions
Resolved, That the appointment to offices
under the Federal government ought not to
be made to control or influence elections in
the several states, and appointments made
with such intentions are unwise, unpatri-
otto and contrary to the spirit of our free
institutions, and if continued without re-
buke by the people, vii become dangerous
to the perpetuity of ouf institutions
Mr.. Hill asked for Immediate consdera-
ton of the resolution, but Mr.. Mcmillan
objected and it was la!d over under the
rules.
The senate at 1890, on motion Of Mr.. Al
lson, went into executive session. While
the doors were still closed, but after tan s.
action of the executive business had been
concluded, Mr.. Sherman offered rcsou-
! tion for the appointment OF n committee OF
two to wait on the president and inquire II
he had any further business to lay before
the senate. Tho resolution was adopt
ed and Messrs. Sherman and Bayard
were appointed on the committee, Subse-
quently they reported they had performed
their duty and that the president had
nothing further to communicate.
Mr., MaNey moved that when che senate
adjourns to-day it be sine die. Ordered.
Mr.. Bayard offered the following resou-
ton:
Resolved, That the thanks of the senate
! are hereby rendered to the Hon. Pavid
Davis Tor the courtesy, impartiality
and ability with which he has performed
his duties as president pro TEN. Agreed to
unanimously.
Mr.. Davis having resumed the chair
which for the moment he had vacated, sand
