In addition to the I l ve the following are a few ot the bills Mr. Drown dodged, running out of the House or sitting silent when the roll was called: Nos. 408, BOS, 503, 208, 365, 288, 100, ISO, 70. los, 82, .'.IK, 300, 11, 100, 111. 308, 300, 112, 454, 058, 53, :.., 4:s,';7, 176, 502, r,!i7. 508, 120, 561, 207, 1)8, 113, 133, 121, 135, 70, 138, W, 30, 16,' 344, 57, 74 , 01, 2K, :U. 4, 401, 407, 1 10. 130, HI?, 265, 86, 764, 766, 777, 634, 784, 268, 217", 180, S1, 18:!, 213, 560, 143, 4.".7. 640, 134, 800, 210, 511, C21, 800, 438, .'.12. 355, 245, 400, OIK.' 30.1, ;.7n. 537, 2E8, 016, 470, 541, 338, 370.

Mr. Hrown wim the most notorious dodger of lulls in too House. He has a record of dodging nearly 2'h) hills, which signifies either his inabil ity to distinguish between what is beneficial or injurious legislation, or he was too cowardly to go on record. If silence is to Is.' golden and a majority 0 bills aro to be dodged, then the people are as well off without a representative.
