So the question upon its adoption was decided in the nega-
tive.

The question recurring upon the second branch of the
amendment, to wit:

The Commissioners of Revision shall also proceed with all
reasonable dispatch, to revise the Gude of the State, embody-
ing in it all existing laws not now incorporated therein, omit-
ting all superfluous words and enactments, and all such as
have ceased to affect existing rights, condensing the whole
into as concise a form as is consistent with a full and clear ex-
pression of the Jaw, and suggesting any errors or omissions
which may be found to exist therein, and the best mode of
rectifying the same.

They shall report the Code so revised, to the General As-
sembly for its approval, and while the bills so prepared, and
the Code so revised by them, shall be under consideration,
shall be entitled to seats upon the floor of the Senate or House
of Delegates, and to take part in the discussions thereof, but
without the right of voting thereon.
