Virginia TO the biigbting effects Of sia-
very-and earnes,iy urged the propri-
ely Of suffering the committee to finish
their l,bors.
Mr.. Randolph supported his propo-
.itioD, and attributed tho exeiteu,v mt
among the people 70 other causes than
the action Of the Legislature.
Mr.. Gholson, Of Brunswick. moved
an adjournment, and signifed his in
tention Of addressing the house.
On Thursday, Mr.. Ghoison made 4
speech Of more than t~o hours length.
against the proposition Of Dir. Randolph.
and denying fhe right Of the Legisla-
ture to touch the subject At all. His
speech was considered, by those who
thought with him. . ussferly effort.
Mr.. Rives, Of Campbell, followed
Mr.. Gholson, in an energetic speech,
in which he declared that he would
rather enjoy the honor Of being the
author Of Mr.. Jefierson's scheme Of
emancipation. than Of ell the other acts
Of that great mans life. He Was de-
cidedly in favor Of Mr.. 4 Randolph
proposition, which merely asked a re.
ference Of the subject II the people
themselves. u OI
y On Friday, the subject was resumed;
when Mr.. Brodnsx OF Dinwiddie. de.
Iivered q long and very eloquent
speech-opposed to Mr.. Randolph
motion. but fasoring q medium course.
He demonstrated the ability Of the
State TO send Of annually, 5000 per.
sons Of colour, for the sum Of 1900. OoO
IA sum which would scarcely be fel,
by the people. He forcibly depicted
the necessity of some ocfion on the
subject. while he was totally opposed
TO any scheme which would invade the
right Of property. y
Mr.. Bruce, Of Halifax, followed. in
neat and able speech. showing the
unconstitationaIity of the proposition
OF Mr.. Randolph, and the injurious
effects Of Legislation at this time, which
he thought, would excite hopes amongs,
the slaves which never could be realized
All this debate, upon this deiic ate
subject, is carried on with open doors.
in the midst Of thronged Hobbies and
galleries. A large number Of ladies
have attended every day. and the Sc.
nate adjourns after but a few minutes
session, TO attend the deliberations
Of the house.
On SoiifSday, the debate upon the
"all absorbing question" was resumed
by Mr. Powell, of Spottsylvania, in
the presence Of a large assembIase Of
visi'ers-many Of them ladies. This
gentleman was opposed To any move.
ment by this legislature. believing that
the people had not Sufficiently mani.
tested their wishes on the subject.
Mr.. Daniel, Of Campbell, followed.
against the propositions.
| Mr.. Faulkner, Of Berks ley, spoke
at some length earnestly and ably in
favor Of action.
Mr.. Marshall, Of Fauquier, took the
hoor against the motions ~ they then
stood, believing the people not pre- pared
for such plan-tho' he hoped 10 see the
evils OF slavery eventually remedied
MIR. Roane, Of Hanover, moved an
adjournment. and 10 entitled, by mar.
