that the general government ought, il practicable
TO adopt an efficient plan for its gradual abolition
Mr.. Hawkins, Mr.. Duncan and Mr. Kelley sun
ported the resolutions, and General Ogie and Mr.
Dunlop opposed them All agreed that slavery
was an evil and crime; but il was said by MI
Dunlop that this measure, while il would produce
no practical good, would rriiate and inflame the
minds Of our southern fellow-citizens, and create
IN them hostile feeling towards PENNSYLVANIA.
Mr.. Hawkins said that the measure was suggested
to him by the great and good lafayette, who. In
conversation with bin, expressed his regret tina,
slavery still tolerated in the United States. and
particularly that Pennsy lvania had not exerted the
influence which she had in the union 10 abolish il
The senate rejected that resolution which requested
congress to pass law, with the consent Of the slave
holding states, declaring all children of slaves born
after the passage Of the law, free at t,yenty-one
years Of age, II they would consent to colonization
and providing for their support until that period by
