Maryland Legislature.
--The Senate occupied Saturday on the subject of adjournment.
The committee of conference reported an amendment to
Mr. Wallis' resolution that the Legislature adjourn on Thursday at 11 o'clock, until June 4th; also to appoint a committee of four from each
House to lay said resolutions before
President Lincoln and
Jeff. Davis, and ask a cessation of hostilities until after the assembling of Congress.
The Senate adopted
Mr. Wallis' resolution with the above amendments, but the
House at the evening session refused to adopt the conference committee's report — yeas 15, nays 28.
Subsequently the vote was reconsidered, and the report was recommitted, when the
House adjourned till half-past 8 o'clock tomorrow, at which time the committee will again report.
The two Houses are thus at variance.
The Senate refuses to adopt
Mr. Wallis' resolution or fix a day for the adjournment, unless the
House adopt the Senate resolution and appoint eight commissioners, as above mentioned.
In the House of Delegates,
Mr. Wallis reported a bill calling a Sovereign Convention, which was laid on the table.
The joint resolution from the Senate appointing a committee of four from each
House to visit
President Lincoln and
Jefferson Davis, and the
Governors of
Pennsylvania and
Virginia, was reported upon unfavorably by
Mr. Willis, chairman of the
Committee on Federal Relations, giving certain reasons therefore.
The report was adopted.
They also report that the invasion of
Maryland, and the capture of produce by the
Virginia troops, has been disapproved of by
Governor Letcher in a letter to
Governor Hicks, who has issued orders forbidding the recurrence of such acts.
The report was adopted, and the papers ordered to be forwarded to
Mr. Harvey,
Commissioner to
Virginia.
