INDIANA'S NAVY.
Mr. VIEHE offered the following:
Whereas, The late Governor, and also the present incumbent, have each, in obedience to the requirements of the Constitution, given to the General Assembly Information touching the condition of the State, but neither of them has given this Assembly any information on the subject of the military and naval forces of the State, of which the Governor is commander-in-chief; and
Whereas, This session is about to come to a close, and legislative action could not be had even if that information were now given; therefore,
Resolved, That His Excellency the Governor be requested to fully inform the next General Assembly especially as to the condition of the navy.
On his further motion, it was referred to a Special Committee--Messrs. Menzies and Chapman.
