        GENTLEMEN,
    WE have rejected the resolution respecting the laws compiled by William Kilty.  We deem the compensation
to him, and the distribution of the laws, to be very different subjects, entirely unconnected with each other, and
would wish distinct resolves to be sent to us upon them; as they now appear before the senate, it is out of our
power to propose any amendment whatever to the first part of the resolution.
                                                            By order,                                                    W. S.  GREEN, clk.
    Upon the second reading of the amendment to the resolution respecting the appointment of a senator to the
senate of the United States, the question was put, That the senate assent thereto?  The yeas and nays being required,
appeared as follow:
A    F    F    I    R    M    A    T    I    V    E.
Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, Littleton Dennis, John Campbell, John Grahame, Charles Ridgely, of Hampton,
Uriah Forrest, James Hollyday, John Chesley, David McMechen, Charles Goldsborough,
junior, and Philip Thomas, Esquires.        11.
N    E    G    A    T    I    V    E.
John Thomas, Esquire, president, William Hammond Dorsey and William Hemsley, junior, Esquires.        3.
So it was determined in the affirmative.
The following message was prepared, read, agreed to, and sent to the house of delegates by the clerk.
