uT tho Annapolis Republican, rogretting from
Its narrow dimensions, its inability TO rcpubsh the
Debate in the Virginia House of Delegates, adds
the following remarks. Wo wcro unable to find
tho bill reported by Mr.. Brockhart, alluded to, or
any sketch Of its provisions.
"We regret our inability to publish this debate
which does honor to the talents of Virginia, the
moro, as our own Legislature are upon tho very
threshold of this great subject. Tho Joint Com
miteo OF the two Houses have had tho numerous
petitions before them and arc now devoting them
selves to tho question. We have OF heard of any
direct proposition bong yet made, cept that con-
tanned in the bill reported by Mr. Brockhart which
has been referred by tho House of Delegates to
the Joint Committee.
"I'hcre can be mistake 20 the general dc.
sire Tor some decided act of legislation in this
State in relation TO the state of our population
What that measure shall be is indeed a grave ques-
ton That some measure should be devised to
satisfy both tho owners Of slaves and tho friends
OF an ultimate emancipation of that race, thou oh
difficult, is not impossible. The period has arri.
we'd to inquire whether this fair section of tho
Union is to continue to be cursed with condition
of society every way disastrous to our truo in
tcrest.
"Whdt is to be done?
"For ourselves we arc FREQ to answer at once
and let every man in the State, think of tho sub.
Ject and speak out his scntiment-hc occasion re-.
quires it.
"Wo for radical change in tho conditions
of tho population Of the State-not an Immediate
not sudden-not n violent revolution-but de.
terminod and prospective change, a change which
shall at some day. enable children to call every
son of tho soil citizen and brother.
"'Ihe time we believe has arrived when it be-
comes necessary to inform the whole of the popu.
ation of this state, and especially tho better in
formed of tho coloured people, that for their inte-
rest as well for ours, separation must be look
ed to, provided for and effected Neither our in
terest nor theirs. admit that this country be-
come their country, can it be divided between
us.-Who will consent to perpetuato condition
of society such unhappily now exists7-Slavery
must some day be banshcd from this land.-Man-
kind, or at least republicans, becoming as in
disposed to impose as to endure shackles-En-
lghtcncd statesmen cannot avoid preparing tho
community for change, that all must agrco TO DO
inevitable. The great object is to provide for
that change as to unto all hearts and complex
ions in the measure"

DEBBATH IN THE SENATE.

We this day present tho speeches of Mcssrs.
Clay ard Frclinghvysen, on Mr.. Van Buren's no :.
mIsation. All that can DO wished, is that every
citizen of tho United States, should reud the
speeches delivered on that nomination. Mcssrs
Clay and Calhoun, as tho friends of Van Buren,
dHedgc, may havo beer swayed by vndictivc mo-
tivcs, and wish to crush rival-to no man is il
given to look into another's bosom, and ascertain
with certainty, what motive, or combination of
motives, produced particular act-but it is least
certain that is mado out against Mr.. Van
Buren,, which ustifcs his rejection in every mans
eyes, who does not belong to his division of tho
Jackson party, which will justify it, when tho par
ty spirit of the day has subsidized and no doubt with
tho British Government itself We eau only
LAX as yet of public opinion in this city, and of
our individual observation of it but, far that
goes, it appears to us, that Van Buron's rejection
as approved by decided majority of tho Jackson
party itself. Mcssrs. Tazcwoll and Tyler, might
have carried their private pishss into execution,
with perfect safety to, and large incl of, their
popularity; and shall be surprizcd, if their suf
foring themselves to DO whipped in, after tho
lengths they wero known to havo gone, in dcnun-
citation of MIR. Van Buren,, has not tendency to
weaken tho attachment of overy party in the State
not excepting Van Burens friends, who have
little love for them old Scores and will natural
ly SGT down this act not to love approval of Mr.
Van Buron, but fear of them. Far be it from us to
assign such motive to their conduct; but the uni.
rcrsal surprzo felt and Expressed, is not a very
fattering Indication of the judgment which public
opinion will pass upon that conduct. Wo have no
fault to find. We speak of things wo believe
they exist. Approved, with scarcely exception.
by the friends of Calhoun and Clay, Van Buron's
rejection will be applaudsd by immonso majo-
rity Of Virginia.
We shall publish the remainder of tho Debate
as rapidly as possible. The speeches of Mr.. Cal
houn's friends now coming in.

FOR THE MASSACHUSETTS SPY.

Mr.. EDlroR; l find in your paper of last
week, some Resolutions published, said TO have
been adopted by the town of Barre, on the 18th
OF November last, which are calculated, in my
opinion, to make wrong impression on the
public mind; whether Intentionally or not,
VIII not undertake to say. 1t would seem from
Tie publication that the question, as to the ex'
pedleney OF amending the Sd article of the Bill
OF Rights, was prominent subject for consid
GRAFTON, at the town meeting, and that the sub
Ject was fairly and legally brought before the
town, and that a majority Of the inhabitants
were opposed to any amendment of that article.
IL seems te me, therefore. that such an impress.
sion ought to be removed, and knew of no
better way to effect the object than TO state the
facts and to say nothing about the description
ct the meeting as being holden for choosing
Governor, &c, and the boastrng that loe hart
character alone all other States in the Union
for general intelligence and moral principles, -
| will proceed to state some facts
The town of Barre contains about $500 inhab.
itants-and between 200 and 500 volers-There
were gwen in on that day for Governor more
than 40 votes. After the Representatives were
chosen, and most of the people had left the
house, those Resolutions wero presented, sal.
ready cut and dried" and motion made for
their adoption an inquiry was made, whether
there was an article in the warrant which
would authorize such a proceeding--the an

however, passed-.about thirty Il think jus

state of the skin--as has been exemplified by
The difficulties attending northumberland The,

In tie summer season, and the early part Of
the autumn, the children at the schools were

Pox, will be notwithstanding specific con.
iagion of each disease will assume its indivd-
ualty and no longer be suspected of crossing
each other and producing couiused and unset
tied notions in regard to system.
This article has been drawn up suddenly,
more with view to excite the attention Of
others to the subject, than for any other cause,
in the hope that something definite nigh; be
settled in relation to the disease. Y.

Iionswere gotten up,) it was hoped that no one
opposed to them would act, the result was. that
very few voted against them.

The result would be, if the question should be
fairly laid before the town, and an opportunity
given to discuss the subject; but there are two
petitions now pending before the Legislature
from the town, signed, | presume, by more
than fifty voters each, praying for an alteration
"i The Constitution, so that the people shall
hot be compelled TO support preaching by the
strong arm Of tn: lao. Besides, one of the
Representative chosen that day by handsome
majority, was well known to have been for a
long time, strong advocate for such an altera'
tion, and | have understood that the other voted,
at the last Legislature, in the same way. 1t
would. therefore, seem altogether probable That
Il majority would be in favor Of an 70 endment.
