Albany, April 20, 1830. Ordered, That Mr. Robinson and Mr. Dickinson, wait upon the Acting Governor, and inform him that, unless he has some further business to lay before the Legislature, this House is ready to adjourn. Ordered, That Mr. Gosman and Mr. Kirby, be a committee to wait upon the Senate, and inform them that this House is ready to adjourn. Mr. Robinson reported, that, pursuant to the order of the House, Mr. Dickinson and himself had waited upon the Acting Governor, and informed him, that, unless he had some further business to lay before the Legislature, this House was ready to adjourn, and that the Acting Governor had been pleased to say, that he had no further communication to make to the Legislature. Mr. Gosman reported, that, pursuant to the order of the House, Mr. Kirby and himself had waited upon the Senate, and informed them that this House was ready to adjourn. On motion of Mr. Bradish, Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this House be presented to the Hon. ERASTUS ROOT, for the able and impartial manner in which he has presided over its deliberations, and discharged the various and arduous duties of Speaker, during the present session. Thereupon, His honor the Speaker made the following reply: GENTLEMEN, It affords me much satisfaction to receive this testimonial of your unanimous approbation of my services during the present session of the Legislature. But you will permit me rather to ascribe it to the kindlier feelings of the human heart, and to those charities which surround it, and which you so eminently possess, than to any efforts of mine. I am aware, gentlemen, that in the administration of the duties of the chair, I have failed in coming to that point which is so desirable in legislation. Weak and defective optics, added perhaps to frequent inattention, and to a want of that clearness and quickness of perception which are so necessary in a presiding officer, I am aware that I have failed in doing all that I could have desired to have done. But I hope and trust, gentlemen, that you will ascribe any omissions on my part, to these physical defects, rather than to any intention to depart from that rule of conduct which ever ought to govern a presiding officer. Gentlemen, this session, as most other sessions, has produced collisions in transacting the business of legislation. These collisions, so natural to the human heart, frequently produce some little excitement and some little irritation. That this session has been perfectly free from these irritations, I do not pretend: but of this I am confident, that if the irritabilities of our nature have been sometimes excited, there will be on this day a reciprocal desire to pass them to oblivion-that there will be a general proclamation of amnesty. I cordially assure you, gentlemen, that I wish you a pleasant return to the bosom of your families and friends; and that you may have a cheerful journey through life to "that undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveller returns." A message from the Senate, delivered by Mr. Hubbard and Mr. Deitz, was received, informing that the Senate were ready to adjourn. Thereupon, Mr. Speaker adjourned the House sine die.
