Side 269 - Each House may punish, by imprisonment, during their session, any person not a member, who shall be guilty of disrespect to the House, by any disorderly or contemptuous behavior in their presence ; provided, such imprisonment shall not, at any one time, exceed twenty-four hours.
Side 110 - When a member shall be called to order, he shall sit down until the president shall have determined whether he is in order or not; and every question of order shall be decided by the president without debate; but, if there be a doubt in his mind, he may call for the sense of the Senate.
Side 300 - Bills of attainder, ex post facto laws, and laws impairing the obligation of contracts, are contrary to the first principles of the social compact, and to every principle of sound legislation. The two former are expressly prohibited by the declarations prefixed to some of the State constitutions, and all of them are prohibited by the spirit and scope of these fundamental charters. Our...

Side 147 - Christmas day, or at any time except between the hours of nine in the morning and four in the afternoon...
Side 82 - ... ought to be a man big and comely, stately and well spoken, his voice great, his carriage majestical, his nature haughty, and his purse plentiful and heavy : but, contrarily, the stature of my body is small, myself not so well spoken, my voice low, my carriage lawyerlike, and of the common fashion, my nature soft and bashful, my purse thin, light, and never yet plentiful.
Side 816 - Every act shall embrace but one subject and matters properly connected therewith, which subject shall be expressed in the title. But if any subject shall be embraced in an act which shall not be expressed in the title, such act shall be void only as to so much thereof as shall not be expressed in the title.
Side 168 - The President having taken the chair, and a quorum being present, the journal of the preceding day shall be read, to the end that any mistake may be corrected that shall have been made in the entries.
Side 301 - Laws made to punish for actions done before the existence of such laws, and which have not been declared crimes by preceding laws, are unjust, oppressive, and inconsistent with the fundamental principles of a free government.
