Fourteen Van Buren, menin the affirna-

bill passed the Senate IS. J. 1888. p. 357)
by the following vote:

(D.) Magruder, Martin, Matthews, (A.)

caud, Wason-7.


Seren Van Buren, men in the afiirma-
tive and three Wings; sic Wings in the
negative and one Van Bnrcn man.


A casual examinat on of the foregoing
votes will be sufficient to satisfy every
one that none of the bills were carried
from party considerations. 1t seems to
have been conceded, particularly in the
Senate, where there was nearly an equal
balance Of parties, that the appropriations
of 1888 were necessary, in order to Sc
cure to the State the truition Of former
profuse appropriations, by placing at the
disposal of the Companies the
means of completing their works.
This last remark, Of course, does
not apply to the loan of million Of
dollars to the Tide Water Canal Compa-
ny: for, let it be NOTED that the State, un-
til this year, had pentured nothing in that
arork, and from that appropriation, you
perceive, by the yeas and nays, n large
portion of the Wigs of both branches
shrunk bacause of III, embarrassed coEdl-
ton of our finances.
