ADJOURNMENT.
! Upon the house reassembling Mr.. Hicks
| moved that when the house adjourned to-
day, it be to Tuesday next at IL a. m. A

which would prevent many members visit
| ing their homes, and they might as we'll
continue in session and dispose of some of
| the business before them.

and its report was agreed to.
Mr.. Spaulding moved to reconsider the
vote by which the house agreed to adjourn
to Tueday next.
Mr.. Rahilly moved the house adjourn.
Mr.. j. Smith, Jr., by consent, said. that
when the motion to adjourn until Tuesday
was before the house he had endeavored to
secure the eye of the speaker, but without
success. He then desired to say that as he
understood the law the joint convention
was required to meet on each succeeding
secular day until senator was elected.
The fact that the two houses had adjourned
would make no difference, the joint con-
vention could meet and vote, with the
speaker of the house presiding. He knew
there was difference of opinion on this
point, and he had not proposed to antago-
nize the motion to adjourn over till Tues
day, but merely to state his views. He
really wanted an adjournment, but he
thought all should understand that if a
quorum of the two houses could be got to-
gether tomorrow and Monday, thay could
| legally vote for and elect United States
senator. and 1t was we'll to understand the
matter as it was.
