A message from His Excellency the Governor by the Secretary of State: To the Senate and House of Representatives: I have signed all the acts and resolutions which have been presented to me at this session, except an act, entitled "An act in addition to and in amendment of the militia laws of this State." The late hour at which that act has been received, effectually prevents that consideration which its importance demands, but believing, as I do, that its passage would destroy that which it is intended to improve, I cannot give it my signature, nor is it, at this late hour, practicable for me to return the bill, with my objections, to the house where it originated. Having been informed by your committee, that you have finished all the business designed to be transacted, and that you are now ready to adjourn, I do, according to your request, adjourn the legislature to the last Wednesday of May next. Council Chamber, July 3, 1845." JOHN H. STEELE. The President then declared the Senate adjourned to the last Wednesday of May next. Attest MOODY CURRIER, Clerk. A true copy from the original record.
