THE UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT.

Mr. FISHER, observing a little nervousness on the part of the Democratic members on the subject embedded in the Governor's message of March 1, and in order that their fears may be put at rest, offered the following:

Resolved, That the consideration of the message of his Excellency the Governor, sent to the Senate of the first day of March last, on the subject of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States be postponed till Tuesday, the 11th day of May next and made the special order for that day.

The resolution was adopted.

Mr. HANNA moved to reconsider the vote adopting the resolution.

Mr. FISHER moved to lay the motion on the table.

The latter motion was agreed to.
