Th;3 meeting having taken place for the purpose of deciding on a bill introduced at the former fetfion, for suspending the operation of the tender law, and providing a fubdi.ute for a more equitable discharge of debts.

The bill having palled in the lower, was sent to the upper house, and was there con curred with, there being only one dillimrient in that house. This bill repeals so much of the emitting aft, as makes the paper money a tender ac par. It directs all judgments to be entered up in gold or fiiver, and authoiifes a discharge of them with real eflate, of not less value than 401. or certain enumerated articles of person al edate, gold or fiiver, or paper money at the rate of fifteen of paper for one of fiiver.
