ntitled to the attention and sympathy of all interested in this useful, but neglected class of society. The matter, by neglect of the committee, has been left to my discretion, and though there is still a considerable amount due me personally on the bell, it affords me pleasure to give it the direction indicated by the committee.

Much debate for and against this proposition ensued, and ran with confusion, which the President was forced to rebuke. The resolution was passed — yeas 118, nays 5.
