STOCK RUNNING AT LARGE.

Mr. FOULKE by request of the author moved to reconsider the vote-rejecting Mr. Yancey's bill [S. 62] prohibiting certain, animals running at large.

The motion was agreed to.

The question recurring; Shall the bill pass?

Mr. CAMPBELL explained that when he voted Tor the bill the other day he was not aware it was in the power of the County Commissioners to regulate the running at large of animals, and, as the people have this provision in their hands, he would now vote against the bill.

Mr. DUNCAN would vote no for similar reasons.

Mr. McINTOSH: If every householder were able to pasture his own stock on his own land he would be glad to vote for the bill, believing it would be an advantage to the people of the State, but having voted against it before he would vote against it now.

The bill was rejected by yeas, 22; nays, 23.

Mr. ADKISON gave notice that on to-morrow he should move to reconsider the vote just taken.
