Σελίδα 167 - When through the amendments of the committee, the Speaker pauses, and gives time for amendments to be proposed in the House to the body of the bill; as he does also if it has been reported without amendments ; putting no questions but on amendments proposed; and when through the whole, he puts the question whether the bill shall be read a third time?
Σελίδα 178 - But if the bill came from the other house, as it always comes engrossed, ho states that the question will be, whether it shall be read a third time ? and before he has so reported the state of the bill, no one is to speak to it.
Σελίδα 179 - Senate. In reducing numerous, difficult, and illegible amendments into the text, the Secretary may, with the most innocent intentions, commit errors which can never again be corrected. The bill being now as perfect as its friends can make it, this is the proper stage for those fundamentally opposed to make their first attack.

Σελίδα 170 - Quasi-Committee, to the laws which regulate the proceedings of Committees of the Whole?] The particulars in which these differ from proceedings In the House are the following: 1. In a committee every member may speak as often as he pleases. 2. The votes of a committee may be rejected or altered when reported to the House. 3 A committee, even of the whole, cannot refer any matter to another committee. In a committee, no previous question can be taken; the only means to avoid any improper discussion...
Σελίδα 108 - The delay and interruption which this might be made to produce, evince the impossibility of the existence -of such a right. There is, indeed, so manifest a propriety of permitting every member to have as much information as possible on every question on which he is to vote, that when he desires...
Σελίδα 108 - PAPERS. Where papers are laid before the house, or referred to a committee, every member has a right to have them once read at the table, before he can be compelled to vote on them.
Σελίδα 119 - Questions of privilege shall be, first, those affecting the rights of the House collectively, its safety, dignity, and the integrity of its proceedings ; second, the rights, reputation, and conduct of members individually in their representative capacity only...
