Mr. Hamilton of Hunt said that the
only evidence produced that the action
of the house in reconsidering the
doctor bill was unconstitutional was the
statement read by Mr Love of William
son, relative to a ruling in congress
that a new bill would be the only fea-
sible method of fitting the case in hand
in contravention to Mr Jenkins'
"paraliellsm" relative to verdicts of
juries Mr Hamilton asserted that in
such a case the jury could correct any
error in its verdict or have the clerk
of the court do it in the jury’s pres-

jury is discharged it has jurisdiction
over its verdicts.

said the resolution would be a general

the amendment to the constitution
should be generally acceptable.
Mr. Thompson of Hunt spoke in be-

therewith a drink also. The keeping

this bill has gone to the governor, as

that if a bill passes both houses, goes

"Is there any way in which a bill

Yes; , when he vetoes it and it is re-

the same whether one or one hundred

amendments.

Mr Jenkins went go far as to foral-

the only manner in which the final en-
