The Daily Dispatch: October 8, 1862., [Electronic resource], Confederate Congress. (search)
lled the previous question upon the motion of Mr. Baldwin to strike out the enacting clause of the bill, and the call being sustained, the ayes and noes were ordered, with the following result: Ayes 19 noes 45. So the motion to strike out did not prevail. The Chair decided that the vote sustaining the call of the previous question covered the engrossment of the bill, which cut off amendments. An appeal was taken from the decision of the Chair, but the House sustained the decision, and the bill was engrossed and ordered to a third reading. A motion was then made to reconsider the vote by which the call of the previous question was sustained, which was agreed to; and the vote by which the bill was ordered to be engrossed being also reconsidered, the bill was open to amendment. Mr. Bonham, of S. C., submitted an amendment not in substance changing the first section of the bill. Pending its farther consideration, the House adjourned, and the bill lies over for tomorrow.
