Mr. Jackson, of Walton, moved to strike out the word “majority,” and insert “plurali ty.” Yeas 4G, nays,7Gj so the motion was re jected. Mr. Speer moved io insert “Griffin” in the * section offered by Mr... Jaelrson. Yens 73, nays 46; so the motion to insert prevailed. Mr. Walker, of Richmond, -imwed the pre vious question.
