On motion of Mr. Lott, Resolved, That the Clerk inform the Senate that the House of Reprcsentatives is now ready to adjourn sine die in pursuance of the joint resolution of the two Houses, passed some days since, fixing this as the time of adjournment. Mr. Kuykendall, from the committee on Enrolled Bills, reported as correctly enrolled, and this day laid before the Council of Revision, a bill for An act to authorize the assessment and collection of taxes in the Rochester school district." The hour having arrived for the adjournment of the General Assembly in pursuance of the joint resolution of the two Houses, the Speaker rose and said: The time fixed for our labors is now to terminate, and this is the befitting occasion for me to tender to you my most sincere thanks for the kindness, friendship and the indulgence which you have at all times and upon so many occasions extended me as the presiding officer of this House. If, in an unguarded moment, any act or expression of mine has wounded the feelings or given offence to any one, I pray it may be forgiven and forgotten. As your presiding officer I have at all times endeavored to discharge the arduous duties which you assigned with fidelity, impartiali ty and whatever of ability I possessed; the success of those endeavors it is for others, not me to determine. That each and all of you have been actuated by an ardent desire to promote the public weal, I am fully persuaded, and I trust that upon your return to your homes you will find your families in the enjoyment of health and all those blessings that you can desire, and that your public acts here may meet with the approbation of your constituents-that approval which is always so welcome to the representative. Long may you and each of you retain that approval and long continue to adorn, to regulate, to promote the Legislation of our beloved State, and may your wisdom, your prudence and your economy restore the State to her wonted prosperity. In after life I shall recur to the stormy scenes through which we have passed with the same feelings of pleasure that I do to my boyhood days and my early home, each now passed to occur to me no more. Your kindness, your friendship are deeply written upon my heart to be obliterated only when every pulsation of life shall cease; I carry with me none other than feelings of friendship and kindness for those who have been my associates in this Legislature. I bid you an affectionate farewell, and perform the last duty as your presiding officer by declaring the House adjourned sine die. So the House of Representatives of the State of Illinois stands adjourned sine die. 1 March 3, 1815. NEWTON CLOUD, leave, 354, 471, 478, 511 PAGE. Anderson, Wm.
