During the reading of the Article; Mir. Jones (Montgomery)-I ask unan' imous consent to make a motion. The President-The gentleman asks unanimous consent Mr. Jones (Montgomery-As that Article will be placed upon the Journal and printed in the proceedings. and every member will want to read 1t, and some are impatient to get away. I move that the reading of the ordi- nance at length be dispensed with. Objection was made. MT. Jones (Montgomery)-I withdraw
 the motion if there Is any objection to 1t.
 The President--The rules require, be-
 1t shall have three readings in the Con-
 vention. Does the gentleman withdraw his motion?
 Mir. Jones (Montgomery)-Yes, sir. Again, during the reading of the Arr ticle:
 MT. Rogers CSumter)-I believe that the rules under which we are acting require these ordinances to be print ed, and as we shall have plenty of copies of this Article. and as we can- not possibly give 1t the attention by
 listening to the reading of the Article, that we cah by reading 1t ourselves, aSk tho ma niFnOna consent of tho Convention that the further reading | of this ordinance before the. Convention be dispensed with. I cannot see the good of having 1t read. and 1t seems to be a useless consumption of time. Objection was made and the reading | proceeded.
 Mir. Brooks-I desire to move that
 the Clerk have the number of this re- port provided by the rules printed l and in view of the vast amount of new matter that this report contains, l that 1t be laid over for consideration | until Tuesday so that the members shall have full opportunity of exa nin- ing the printed copy. Mir. Jones (Montgomery)-Woul 1t
 not be better to have it laid over gen. | orally and then we can find out when | it suits best to take 1t up in view of | the business of the various Commit l tees.
 | MT. Brooks-I am perfectly willing to l accept the gentleman's suggestion ex- cept that I do not want it to come up l on Monday.
 Mir. Jones (Montgomery)-I ask a l suspension of the rules and that this report. after printing, shall lie on the | table. Then we can take 1t up when-
 ever we please.
 MT. Malone-1 move to amend that
 by adding that it shall not come up
 until Tuesday.
 The Presidential put upon the table
 it will remain there until taken up on
 motion. Is the gentleman's motion to
 lay the report on the table? MT. Jones-My object in that is so | that this report will not come up until such time as Is satisfactory to the
 Convention and when the best time
 comes for it. we can take it up and consider 1t.
 MT. Pettus-I rise for a parliament tary inquiry. Under the rules. doh't | the report lie on the table until at the | pleasure of the Convention 1t is taken
 from the table?
 | The President-That is the rule. | MT. Pettus-Then the motion is un-
 necessary as it seeks only to accom-
 plish what is already provided for by | the rules.
 The President-without a suspension
 of the rules, the report of the Com
 mittee and the ordinance reported by
 the Committee will lie on the table
 and three hundred copies will be priut-
 ed. Does the gentleman from Mont | gomery renew his motion?
 MT. Jones (Montgomery)-No. sir.
 The President-The ordinance report
 ed in the minority report will also he printed and lie on the table. MT. Boone-I move that only the ar-
 ticle reported by the majority and the substitute sections reported by the mi
 nority be printed.
 The President-That is what the
 rules require.
 MT. Boone-Not the lengthy report of | the Committee.
 The President-The report Is not to | be printed without the House so or | ders.
 Mir. Jones (Montgomery)-Then
 move to include that. It will aid the
 members very much in looking at the
 new article Without 1t each delegate
 will have to take the old Constitution
 and compare it with this section by
 section.
 A vote being taken the motion of the
 delegate from Montgomery was car.
 ried.
 MT. Var.han--I desire leave of ab.
 sence for tomorrow.
 MT. Heflin (Randolph)-I am request, | ed to ask leave of absence "ntil Mon day for Mir. Sentell on account of sick
 ness.
 | Mr PaImer-I desire a leave of ab'
 sa, ce for tomorrow and Monday. | Mr Rarfro-I desire leave of ab.
