A motion was made by Mr. Bryan to

the resolutions:

prosperity of the old States, and do
great injustice tn those States by
which they were originally ceded to
the Confederacy; and 'moreover, '.It
is the ojiinion of this (ieneral Assem
bly that, as the public debt has been
extinguished, and the object for which
the. cession nf the respective portion
of the Public Domain by the States
which originally held them, has there
by been accomplished, and the lien
thereon discharged, that such . disposi

the States nf the Union as shall he
proportioned to the respective sacrifi
ces and expenditures incurred by
them in support of the United' States,
nr at least in proportion to their
federal population."
The question on the adoption of
this amendment, was decided in th"
negative Ayes 25, Noe- The
