By the SENATE, January 2, 1800.
        GENTLEMEN,
    We are apprehensive, that as your resolution of this day respecting the treasurer of the western
shore is worded, there may not be a sufficiency of specie left in the treasury to answer all
the instalments as they become due, appropriated by an act of the present session to the proprietors
of the Susquehanna canal company; we have dissented from the said resolution, but will assent
to it, provided that the payment of the five months pay due the officers and soldiers, and the
sum due for services on board of the barges, and the redemption of the emissions of June, one
thousand seven hundred and eighty, and the certificates issued by this state, amounting in the
whole to nine thousand two hundred and twenty-six pounds nine shillings and eleven-pence, be
suspended until the first day of January, one thousand eight hundred and one, and that the treasurer
of the western shore be thereby authorised to sell as much stock belonging to this state as
may be sufficient to pay any instalment, for the payment of which there may not be specie enough
in the treasury without such sale of stock as aforesaid.
                                                        By order,                              A.  VAN-HORN, clk.
Which was read.
    ORDERED, That Mr. Key, Mr. Hall and Mr. A. Buchanan, be a committee to prepare an
