Nor would the people derive any benefit. At another time, and in another bill, he should seek to obtain the objects sought in the first part of the ryder. Mr. Sibert submitted a motion to recommit the bill to the Committee on Banks. The question being stated, Mr. Rutherford said he favored the motion to recommit the bill to the Committee on Banks. As originally reported, it was simply a bill to legalize the suspension of specie payment.
