By the SENATE, January 8, 1808.
Gentlemen of the House of Delegates,

WE have rejected the bill, entitled, An act to pay the civil list, and other expenses of civil government, be-
cause we are not satisfied with the increase of certain salaries therein mentioned. If you will send us a bill
with the same salaries as are provided by the law passed last year, it will meet our approbation. We are of
opinion that at this particular period, when a considerable diminution has taken place in the price of the prin-
cipal articles of living, that we ought not to reduce the funds of the state by an augmentation of salaries, espe-
cially as the time may be fast approaching when there may be a necessity for the most rigid economy to enable
us to meet the exigency of events.

By order, T. ROGERS, clk.
