pointing to many , but then the recent ad-
jour < .ment bnn apparently unsettled mem
bers and riml work proceeds slowly
This apathy will bo made up nt the end uf
no-Hion by bills btine ruthed through
wiliiout coLpide'-xtlon. Many momberx hud

to vote In order that tbo requisite number
two-thirds , might blln th majority to allow
requisite bills to piss. It was no unusual
thing for members to bo heard askim ? on
