THE CLAIM OF EDWIN MAY'S WIDOW.
On motion by Mr. MAGEE the joint resolution [S. 2] to appropriate $10,000 to Sarah May, widow of the late architect of the new State House, was read the third time, and failed to pass-yeas, 25; nays, 13-for want of a Constitutional majority.
And then the Senate adjourned until Monday at 2 o'clock p. m., in pursuance of an order adopted during the delivery of Mr. Van Vorhis' speech.
