AFTERNOON SESSION.
Mr. RICE offered a resolution authorizing the Lieut. Governor to draw his warrant in favor of O. M. Wilson for the sum of $100 for the calendar of titles of bills prepared by him at the commencement of the present session.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR said the trouble about entertaining the resolution is that the record shows we have no quorum. It has been decided all the morning that we can do no business without a quorum; and we have got a message from the Governor, audit goes upon the journal, showing that we can not have a quorum. The Governor's message informs us that we are left with less than two-thirds of the members of this body, and that fact is on the journal.
The following message was received from the House of Representatives by a Clerk thereof:
MR. PRESIDENT
-I am directed by the House of Representatives to inform the Senate that the House has concurred in the engrossed amendments of the Senate to House bill No. 311"A bill making specific appropriations for the year one thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine."On motion of Mr. GREENE the Senate took a recess for half an hour.
When the LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR resumed the Chair-
On motion by Mr. WOOD-
The Senate adjourned till 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
