WASHINGTON, MAY %.
Mr. Tallrnadgc, this morning, brought ne-
fore the Senate sundry resolutions, expressive
of his views as to the Rhode Island case and
rive notice that when Mr. Aliens resolutions
were called up he should offer these as suOsti-
tutc.
Mr. T's resolutions declare =,
Ist. That, by the Constitution, the Unl;cd
States are bound not only TO guaranty 10 every
State in the Union republican form OF govern
ment but also to protect each OF them against
mvasion, AID, upon proper application aga'aS'
domestic violence.
I'd. That the form Of government with WHICH d
State cane into he Union and has been Tecos-
n;scd and represented rs a member o! tAc Union;
mus. be taken ard regarded as republican, ana
that such Stateis entitled to all that protection
AGAINST invasion and domestic violence winch Is
pledged by the Constitution OF the U. ,.
3l. Thatthc government of 4 State, so rccoS-
niZed as member of the Union, can only be
changed or superseded, in pursuance CT ana III
the mode prescribed by the laws oil such otale'
and that any attempt to overthrow that govern
ncnt by force is dsorlerly and revolutionary
leadinr TO anarchy and bloodshed and to the dcs-
tructiOn of the public liberty.
4ih. That the application made by the state OF
Rhode Island, and of the sold thirtcen' 10 !he
President of the United States, for pro.cct!on
from domestic violence, vas within tho meaning
and terms OF the Constitution, and that IL was
the duty CT the President TO take such prcparato-
ry stcps as a wisc and prudent forecast demand
ed, and 20 direct such efficient measures as are
contemplated by the constitution and the laws
made il pursuance thereof. ior giving such pro-
tec!un.
The resolutions were read and ordered TO be
printed. The second resolution OF this series
contains the argument which is urged so iorci-
bIy against the abol!toasts, who have assumed
that slavery is contrary to the declaration OF IN
dependence and the principles OF the Consttu-
ton.
II would seem that there is an intention to
bring up the whole subject for discussion:
Mr.. King asked the Senate 10 take up his re-
solution fixing tho }O;hof june for the termina-
ton of the present session OF Congress, but Inc
