were allowed 10y the members of one body
mon the members of the other. This was
/ So plain. so well established, that il seemed
unnecessary TO say word in regard TO 1t.
: IL was founded on that principle which
/ caused the members of the House 10 speak
/ of each other 10y phrase rather IMAM uy
name. Ii was intended as lar As possible
/ to keep personal feeling ont of legislation.
and the Chair was very glad. not only for
the advantage Of the relations between the
/ Uouse and Senate but for the advantage OF
/ the relations among the members Of the
/ House, that this question should epassed
upon in such manner as would make an I'M
preston upon all.
