The Dinner which we mentioned would be
given by the citizens of Milledgsyille to the
Hon. w. II. CRAwroRD, took place on Tues
day the 18th ultimo. and is said by the Record
er TO have been nunerously attended. Gov.
Tronp was present, and from the temper Of
the volunteer toasts we infer that it was apar-
ty affair, intended more to compliment Mr.;
Crawford for his civilities to the Governor at
the late Inauguration, than as manifestation
of esteem for MIR. C.'s general character. We
add few Of these toasts by way of supporting
our opinion. The one given by Mr.. Crawford
is Of different character, and affords strik-
ing contrast with those that follow. The SEN
timent is a fine one and characteristic of the
author.

was the opinion entertained by the writer of this

much OF the MessageDf the President as respects"

that one OF The most important subjects of recon-

advocated by Mr.. Moore, of r. Messrs Ererefte
and Nay were both opposed TO ndi yitlua legisls-
lation in such cases but they were willing 10 pass
some general law permitting free persons ofcolor
To remain in the state under particular circumsta
ces. The latter gentleman moved to Law the bill
on the table, and take up and consider resolution
from the e. ofC. of Justice declaring il expedient
10 make such an amendment 10 the general law
The motion prevailed. And the resolution being
AIKEN up;
Mr. .Wdy moved to amend il so as to make il
embrace male slaves only " who have wives and
children" This amendment, prevailed.
Mr. Ererett NOV I'd farther 10 en,e d the reso-
luton 10y striking out The word - male'' 30 as to
embrace both sexes lie could not see tie reason
for the distinction.
Messrs Briggs and Nay both opposed this a.
mendTen;, on the ground that it would ,lelea, the
measure proposed, BY opening the ,loqr too ide
and tending rather To- Increase than diminish The y
Sought ,obe remeded b. the policy oil our laws on
the subject.
Mr.. Bouiim contended that the amendment was
proper Lat the present law was not vigorously
executed In his section OF country; that there was
something so repusnant 10 the feelings of good
man in driving from the society and enioymens OF
his family, person who had been emanc ipated for
his merit ard good conduct, that he had seldom
known II done. he rigor ot the law he thought
ought to he sofened in relation TO both sexes
air. White saii that the practice in his part of
the country was different from that to which the
gentleman last up had referred. The question. he
thought, was one Off policy ard humanity and ta-
King this double view OF the subject he could not
concur in the amendment.
Mr. ErereHs amendment was then agreed to :;
SO 20 81; and The resolution us amended, was con-
Cured in by the House, 81 % "a.
