AFTERNOON SESSION.
The Chair having been resumed by Mr. SPEAKER STANTON, at two o'clock, P M -
On motion of Mr. BUSKIRK, a call of the House was ordered and proceeded with, discovering, as before, no quorum present, 57 members responding.
Mr. OSBORN Understanding that there are a number of gentlemen members-elect of this Legislature in the city and still hesitating to come forward and qualify, and wishing to give them the fullest opportunity to do so, he moved that the House adjourn till five o'clock this afternoon.
Mr VATER desired to amend the motion - to adjourn till to-morrow morning.
The SPEAKER The motion to amend is not in order.
Mr. Osborn's motion was agreed to on a division - 32 voting in the affirmative: So the Speaker declared the recess till five o'clock.
The Speaker pro tempore resumed the Chair at five o'clock P M
Mr OSBORN Mr. Speaker, I suppose it would be useless to go through the call of the roll again, whilst there is not yet a quorum present I therefore move that the House adjourn till nine o'clock to-morrow morning,
The motion was agreed to, and accordingly the House adjourned.
