District of Columbia by Congress.
Many abolition petitions were present.
ed from Vermont and New-York.
Mr.. Harlan presented memorial from
sundry citizens of Kentucky praying the
aid Of Congress in behalf Of the Colonial
ton Society, which was read and some
debate being likelyt to arise thereon, it was
laid over.
Mr.. Adams raised the question whcth-

any preference over abolition memorials.
