The bill respecting a partition of the estate of John Davidson, deceased, and the following message:

By the SENATE, December 31, 1799.
        GENTLEMEN,
    THE senate were of opinion that the bill respecting a partition of the estate of John Davidson,
deceased, involved it in principles of serious importance in legislation; it occupied their
reflections for a considerable time, and the deliberation which they gave it induced them, in a
full senate, to reject it.  Several of the gentlemen who passed upon that bill are now absent; we
therefore think it would be improper to reconsider it, particularly at this advanced period of the
session.
                                                        By order,                                  A.  VAN-HORN, clk.
Which was read.
