PASSED TO BE ENoRossED.
HOUSE,

Met according to adjournment.
Prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Sargent Of Au-
gusta.
Journal read and approved.
Papers from the Senate disposed Of in
Resolve in favor Of the Maine Central
Institute came down from the Senate, read
twice and passed to be epgrossed under
Of the rules.
On motion of Mr.. Shaw of BAH
the rules were suspended in concurrence
and The resolve was given its two several
readings.
Mr.. Harris of East Machias said that In
passing q resolve like the one under con-
sideration which appropriated the sum of
ten thousand dollars, it seemed to him that
some reasons should be given Why the rules
should be suspended, the resolve take its
two several readings and pass to be
engrossed. If there were . sufficient reA-
son for haste in the matter the members
would like to know it. There were certain
rules of this House, among them a very
wise one providing that all resolves appro-
priatipg the States money shall lie on the
table and be printed, that the members may
know the amount to be appropriated and
the purpose toward which it is to 60.
It was also q rule of this House
that resolves apPropriatipg the States
money shall have their second reading upon
Wednesday of each week and not be hur-
ried through the House. That also seemed
to him very proper and just rule. II
there were sufficient reasons for suspend
i1g these rules and rushing this resolve
they ought to know them. II
there were not sufficient reasons he hoped
that the resolve would take its regular
ard natural course. He moved that the
resolve lie on the table for printing, pend
ing its passage to be engrossed.
Mr.. Shaw Of Bath stated that the rspor,
was recommended by the unanimous con-
sent of all the committee and as it was q
Senate document the report was made to
that body. If they had not sojourned over
Saturday the report wouldS have been
presented on that dsy and the
reeolve would have taken its second
reading on Wednesday of the presen!
week. As the matter now stood the
resolve would have to 60 over until a
week from that time and that was one Of
the principal reasons wig q suspension Of
the rules and the passage of the resolve
was asked for.
The motion Of Mr.. Harris to table the
resolve for printing pending its passage to
be engrossed w&s then carried.
