In SENATE, on Tuesday, Feb. 8, Mr.
Buchanan presented apetition from COM
mittee ofthe citizens of Dauphin county,
appointed at meeting at Harrisburg, pray
ing that Congress would make appropria-
tons to transport to Africa, the free people
ofcolor, and that the constitution might be
submitted for amendment on that point, if
it does not give the power.
In the House, Mr. Garland of Louisiana,
asked the consent of the House to submit
protest signed by himself and MIR GIascock,

against the first clause of instructions con-
tanned in the resolution, yesterday adopted
by the House, and to have the same enter

(The clause protested against is as fol-

That "Congress possesses no power to
Interfere, in any way, with the institution of
slavery, in any of the States of this confed-
eracy"; their opinion being that such dec
laration is unnecessary, and insulting to the
south.

having been made to its reception,
Mr. Garland moved to suspend the rules.

resolutions were debated at considerable
length. On motion of Mr. Clay, the private
bills from the house, which had been favor
ably reported on (3l in numbcr) were AL
considered and passed, and the Senate adj
journed.
In the House, the whole day was spent
in debate on the bill for extra appropria-
tons for Navy yards, without coming to
any conclusion thereon.

and stanmered forth some unin;allii gsiir rpiie
words. Mr. Calhoun again rose and said
il was no matter, as no one could regard
abuse from such quarter as in the slightest
degree insulting.
Isaac said he appreciated the compliment,
and went on with his speech 1t was most
" made up ofeectionering slang calculated
for the coming Presidential canvass. When
he had concluded his remarks, and after
certain explanations had been made by
Messrs Leigh and King touching an obser-
walton which had fallen from the latter, MIR
Calhoun obtained the floor. He said he did
not rise to reply to any thing that had fallen
from the gentleman from New Hampshire.
That individual occupied position upon
that floor, and INDUCED in language Of that
license, which placed him beneath the no
tice of honorable men. lie would however
request the clerk to read from New
Hampshire paper, which he held in his
hand a statement which would convey a
different impression from what might have
been conveyed by statements hitherto made
with respect to the strength of the abolition
lists. Here the clerk read the extract re-
ferred to. After he had concluded Isaac
Hill took the floor apparently choked with
his own venom. lie said he had never seen
the paper from which the extract had been
read. 1t was supported by foreign patron
age, but whether the funds were obtained
from New York or South Carolina he could
not say. The Senator from S. G. had said
that contempt and disgust were entertained
towards him there lie had as good right
upon that floor as any one A.; and "Nlr Presi-
dent if-if-that gentleman feels contempt
and disgust for mel can tell him--that
disgust and contempt are felt for him every
where !"
As this was an extemporaneous effort on
the part of Mr. Hill it deserves to be recol.
lected. The Senate afterwards adjourned
over to Monday
The House was employ ed principally
upon private bills. MIR Cambreleng read
some letters from N. York beseeching Con-
gress to act upon the relief bill, and sue
ceeded in having Tuesday next assigned for
the consideration of that bill. Mr. Peyton
tauntingly inquired if MrAdam's resolution
for an investigating committee was not of
more importance, and ought not to be first
decided, since it had already taken such
precedence. Mr. Ingersoll of Pennsylvania
Introduced resolution for the construction
of marble bust of Chief Justice Marshall,
and took occasion TO make few brief Gu
logistic remarks upon that eminent man.

From Human Rights.

UNALIENABLE RIGHTs. The following
is from all appeal TO the North, in a south
ern paper. The writer is degenerate son
of N, England, S. C. Cady, formerly of
Montpelier, VT, and his object doubtless is,
to clear himself from all suspicion of
favoring the abolitionists, which might
arise from the place of his birth. He has
modified the doctrine of the Declaration of
Independence so as TO restrict "unalienable
rights" to free people. The old doctrine,
which extends them to all men, is very
awkward one to hold slaves under.
"One of the unaenable, rights of free
people, is to hold propriety, and the slave
is species of property recognized by our
laws and we hold it to be a self-evident
fact, that he who maliciously or desgnedy
interieres with that right TO our injury
should be held amenable to the laws for his
offence.
If then, that, right is TO be trihed with,
made a subject of grave debate, ourselves
impugned and abused for its exercise, and
our rights made sleepleSS and heavy, and
without the hope ofredress, what alternative
is left? Secession disunion, revolution, all,
all are preferable to such state of things.
DO you smile, northern readers, at what
you deem the idle gasconading ofthe south
on this subject? 1T is felt, and felt with
a feeling no language can express The
deep and all peryading tone of southern
sentiment is aroused, and happy may the
north deem herself, if her Tappans, and
Coxes, her Garrisons, and deluded clergy
have not sown the seed Of hatred, disc orc
and servile war"

1t is deeply to be regretted that the
parents or guardians of portion of the
young lads of the village do not see the
Improperly of permitting them to he in
the streets al night, not unfrequently col
lecting in clans, aud bawling about to the
no small annoyance of those whose occu-
patons require undisturbed tranquility.
Lads who have leisure time should be
taughtto improve it for the useful purpose
of mental improvement, and thus be
qualifying themselves TO "act well their
part" in the world.

EFMOCRATIC ANTIMASONIC
STATE CONVENTION.

A Democratic Antimasonic State Con-
vention will be holden at the State House
in Montpelier, on Wedncsday The the 24th
day Of February, 1886, at 9o'clock, A. NJ.
for the purpose Of nominating ticket for
State Officers for the political year ensuing !;
and to take into consideration whether any
or what action may be expedient at this
time relative to a candidate for the National
Presidency, together with all other matters
connected with the advancement Of those
principles, for which Antimasons have ever
commended.
The State Committee, seeing no cause
for relaxing those eXertions which have al
ready achieved so much towards Kidding
the country of an institution deemed by us
incompatible with true liberty and all prn-
ciples which republicans should most cher
ish, earnestly request the attendance of a
full representation of the several Towns in
this State. The County Committees are
requested to notify Town Committees and
see that all are srasonably apprized of the
contemplated Convention. And all those
who are opposed to Secret Societies, and
aristocratic monopolies, without distinction
of party names, are invited to assemble in
their respective towns and choose delegates
TO attend and represent them in the Con-
vention.

FEB. 90, 1886. This is the day set
apart for the simultaneous Temperance
me etings. How is it, friends of the cause
in Washington County? Are you nodding
on pour posts' There ought to be q
meeting in every town tonight. And an
influence should be put forth that will be
felt in every family. Let no society omit
to meet for the reason that no speakers can
be found. Speeches are not important.
Get facts and read them in your meetings
then follow themup with plain common
sense talk. This will do the work infinite
ly better than rhetoric and fne-spun dec
lamation. The Temperance Almanac for
1886 contains facts enough on this sub
ject to enlist the sympathies and awaken
the zeal of every friend of humanity-of
every patriot and christian. LET SOME
THING BE DONE.

We recommend to all the young men of
the place to be at the Masonic Hall, this
evening. The temperance cause needs the
help of all. The young men now living
have momentous interest at stake in the
destiny of the republic. Let them feel it
more and more, and take hold of the great
and noble enterprises of the day in a
spirit BETTING the age in which we live.

SIeNs OF THE TIMES. We must not
omit to advise our readers of some remark
able manifestations of favorable regard to
the cause of antimasonsy, of late, on the
part OF some, who ordinarily have taken
rank among our incorrigible opponents
and calumniators. We find by glimpse
at the Washington Globe, that the editor
of that journal has become quite enamored
of antimasonry, insomuch that he declares
it to be, "in one sense, Democracy" Not
only so, but he makes honorable mention
of some of the early veterans in our cause.
Not being privileged with the reading Of
that print, except that we now and then
get an odd one from member of Congress,
we know not but MIR Blair's antimasonry
dates back as far as any body's. His prox-
unity to Mr. Van Buren, (who it seems was
out in 800 is certainly strong circumstan-
tial evidence. If our antimasonic conven-
ton were not so near at hand, we would
suggest TO our State Committee to write OH
to the editor of the Globe, and request a
more full development of his antinasonic
predictions, in order to quicken and
encourage our brethren in Vermont to
perSerere in the good cause. Perhaps, too,
it might not be afNiss to ascertain his
opinion upon the question, whether Mr.
Van Buren, is so much attached to antima-
sonic principles as to render it possibly
consistent for antimasons to vote for him
as candidate for president of the United
States As the Globe is the accredited or.
gan Of "the Government" we are not ex-
actly certain that the announcement of its
editor may not be considered in the light
of an oracular proclamation of the opinions
OF the entire cabinet, and of the whole body
off the democracy throughout the country.
AS slight evidence of the correctness Of
this hypothesis, it may not be amiss
to mention that the Green Mountain De-
mocrat, a paper published at Newfane
in this state, las recently given currency to
the most liberal encomiums on antimason-
ry, and although the editor has not to our
knowledge made such an avowal, we are
of the opinion that he would have no insu-
perable objections to antimasons voting for
Mr. Van Buren.
Nor is this all. The Vermont Patriot, of
this town, has most cogent and forcible
article to prove the connection between
"ANTIMAsoNRY AND THE PRESIDENCY"
The editor says in SO many words, "We
rejoice most sincerely that masonry has been
Subdued" And again, SIZE hare erer been
openly and arotcedly opposed to that and all
other secret combinations - Surely this is
plain talk. If the editor of the Patriot
stands ON antimasonic ground, it would
seem to follow that all his party are with
him for the Patriot 10 tho oracle of its party
and never lies. On the whole we conclude
the whole world is getting to be strongly
anhmaStnic--o else the Van Buren, party
is--or else--the Convention meets on the
9th day of this present February.
