 Resolved, That the Governor be re- quested to appoint as special watchmen at the Capital capable Confederate vet erans and that he select wounded and disabled Confederate soldiers capable to do the work in preference to Confederate veterans who are able to do other work"
 motion to suspend the rules met with some opposition and 6 division was or dered. The division showed that the rules were suspended by Q vote of 6S to H.
 Before the vote was taken on the reso- Iution, Hon. J. J. Arnold of Calhoun said:
 ''It strikes me that this resolution is in the nature of reflection on the Governor. It seems to me that 1t Is an attempt on the part of the House to dictate to him whom he shall appoint. While I fully con- cur in the spirit with which the resolu- tton is offered, feel that the resolution is improper and inappropriate"
 Morgan Man Defends Resolution.
 MT. walden replied that he did not see how any member of the House could re- gard the resolution as improper.
 "A similar resolution" he said, twas introduced by myself in the last House and adopted. That wise, patriotic Gov ernor, who was himself 6 Confederate soldier, William J. Stanford, did not, I am glad to say, turn the back of his hand on the Confederate soldier. In obe- dience to it's request, he appointed wounded Confederate soldiers special watchmen at the Capitol"
 ''whsn we consider how the Confeder- ate soldier left his home and went to the front when an invading army swept over our land, can any man, or any set of men, consider this resolution ofren- sive7''
 Mir. Byrne of Baldwin said that he did not consider the resolution either inap- propriate or improper. It was merely, he said, a request of the House
 In the interest of peace. Capt. R. T. Simpson of Lauderdale submitted an amendment to the resolution providing that the appointment of Confederate sol- diers to the places named be made in 30 far as 1t win seem to the Governor, to pest BuD@GFNo Lno lulSA0SNS oA SA0 SbGAss
