Mr. GARLAND continued-Hc hoped objections
not made to these resolutions simply because they came
from North Curoina-a region celebrated for the cool
ness aud delbcraton which governed ell It's pubic acts
Why, sir, North Carolina has been called Old KIP Van
Winklc and, sir, upon a subject delicate this,
had much rather take counsel Of RIP Van Wrinkle, than
of Harry otspur. MIR. q. here advcred to the neccs-
sy Of passing laws 10 prevent the agents OF Abolition
AssncaliuGs their publications from gaining 10
Yrnia aud said ii contemplation TO submit TO the
House. the project Of bill tor this purpose Mr. u here
read portions oil the bill which he held IN his hand, and
hoped the gentleman from Rchuiond would cooperate
with him IN procuring their passage through the Com
mittce and the House. One Of the sections OF the bill
proposes to make it highly penal for any Aboitionst 10
enter Virginia. circulate his publications within her
limits; and another section, to prevent Merchants OF
the South from dealing in any way, with the Adolf
,ionsts or their agents, in this any other State
In these laws, SAID Mr. G., intend to ask the
o,eraton Of the Southland their effect, added to the
prohibition which have doubt will be passed by The
Northern States against the printing of incrndary pub
LEGATIONS will be found beneficial than the course
proposed TO be pursued by the majority.
Do, sir, what the nujorIty propose, and you Will
rouse the spirit of the North against you-you Will de-
rnand Of them TO do what they will and cannot do;
and you will perhaps prevent them from acting on the
subject at all. Now have the whole body OF the
Northern people with us; but if demands unrca-
sonabIe in their caracter-if the Northern people look
upon them made in exactng and captlous spirit,
they will certainly refuse to comply with them. We
all profess desire that these fanatics should be put
down and do doubt the motives oil gentlemen who
advocate different from mine; but declare my
solemn belief that if you adopt the resolutions OF the ma
iurity instead of aaying the excitement which e1
iss and nsung TO US the cooperation and friendly as.
our exer,ions hereafter will be unable to .,inguish.
