On this resolution there was consider
able debate aud difference Of opinion
On the final vote, all the members south
Of Delaware we're found IN the afiirma-
tive.
A memorial TO Congress, praying for
the abolition of slavery in The District
Of Columbia, was adopted. Also reso-
luton offered by j. Barton, of Philadcl-
phia, recommending, as a measure OF
policy. the giving Of "A preference TO the
products OF free labor.
1t was recommended that exertons
should be used to procure the passage
of laws in the several States, for pre-
venting the separation OF the families OF
slaves, by sales OF part of them for
regulating and enforcing their marriage
contracts, and for establishing schools
for their benefit.

From the Democratic Press

Anti- SIavery ConUention.-A session
of the American Convention for promot-
ing the Abolition of Slavery, &c. was
held at Baltimore last week. The sit
tiDgs were public. Delegations APP
peared from Norih-Carolina, Virginia,
Tennessee, Maryland, Delaware, East.
Pennsylvania, Neutrality-suspicious., md
New-York. Communication we're re-
ceived from Societies in Massachusetts
and Ohio
The information received, Of the Ero-
gress of the Cause Of emancipation, was
highly satisfactory. About 90 societies
exist in Norlh-Carolina, a number in
Virginia, b in MarylsrI, 40 in Tesnes-
see, and.b in Pennsylvania.
On motion Of Mr.. Earle, Of Philadel.
phia, the following resolution was adopt
ed by the Convention:
ReSoLvtd, That this Convention would
approve Of an adequate appropriation Of
the public revenue Of The United States,
for the voluntary removal of such slaves
as may hereafter be emancipaled, 10
any country which they may select for
their future residence.

our foreign trade has not increased; but

Mr.. Tappan alluded, in very happy
and humorous style, to the complete rev.
oIu.ion that had taken place in public
opinion. Three years ago, he said, it
was not reputable to speak favorably Of
domestic manufactured wooIiens-No

such articles for sale-they were 10 be

also, that we had been instructed in all

tas's and thanksgivings, TO pray for the
success of oar fisheries, agriculture,
commerce, aud manufactures. He hop
ed the time had arrived when goyerE-

Of fire were then falling upon the Sc

believed, had fallen prey to the

opposed the measures taken TO extin-
guish the FIRE, observing that it was
