In English practice, the object is to get rid of the subject for the time being, and the motion is made with a purpose of voting against it. --Cushing. {To beg the question}.

A kind or species; any number or collection of individual persons or things characterized by the same or like qualities; a class or order; as, a sort of men; a sort of horses; a sort of trees; a sort of poems. 2. Manner; form of being or acting. Which for my part I covet to perform, In sort as through the world I did proclaim. --Spenser. Flowers, in such sort worn, can neither be smelt nor seen well by those that wear them. --Hooker. I'll deceive you in another sort. --Shak. To Adam in what sort Shall I appear? --Milton.
