Mr. Shepherd explained the reasons that induced the committee to report, declaring vacancies in those offices He had uo doubt whatever-of the justice of the rebort of the committee! ItAvas 'well establish. ed principle of the common law that the . acceptance 01 a secona omce. tne discharge ot wnose autios was, incompatible with a proper, discharge of the duties attachitig -to an office ,held previously, vacated the first office. The officers named had clearly, violated, this principle, and personal preferences should not govern members in discharging their duties. : Alri Person differed from the gentleman. Hetho't tlfe 'Adjutant Generals oCSce a militia office under the purviipw of the Constitution. It was a peace office established in time of peace for peace purposes, and thxJ" exisience of war does not change : lis rela tion io the law. The cases cited by the commit tee tqjiupport their argument,' he thought not perti uenfe, las the differedce in those cases consisted only in differeTit grades of officers of like nature. The case here was not similar; these' were different officers ef 'different character, held undef'different governments. On the .passage of the resolutions, a division of the 'question was demanded, and the first resolution de claring the office of Ailjvtant General vacant, pass ed by a vote of 64 tollG. : i' ' : ;'. -U , . all 3 umes and passed; - M ,utl fn fthntiah tL bffi The rules were suspended and the resolutions'sever- The bill to abolish the office of Common Schools, fntroduced by Mr: Gentry, on its second reading was indefinitely postponed. - ' " , ( Leave of absence was granted Messes.
