DEBATE ON THE BILL FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT AND INCREASE OF SEAMEN.

The bill was ordered to be read the second time, and to be printed for

the use of the members, that it might be thoroughly examined and

understood.

On the forty-fourth day, the second reading of the bill was postponed to

the fiftieth; but the grand motion being debated on that day, nothing

else was heard.
