His death was announced in both Houses in an

The funeral Of Mr.. Lawrence took place on

NEW YORK AND VIRGINIA.

The following resolutions passed both Houses
OF the Legislature of New York. on The eve of
lis adjournment. IL was the bin repeating the
law giving fugitive slaves trial by Jury which
failed in the House.
NV hereaS, the Governor of Ibis State has ro
FUSED 10 deliver up, upon the demand of the Exec
u'iVe authority of Virginia. Peter Johnson Ed
ward Smith, and Isaac Gansey alleged fuyitives
from justice, Charged with the crime of theft, viz:
stealing slave within the Jurisdiction and a.
gainst the laws of Virginia; and whereas the
Governor has assigned as the reason for such re-
iusai, That the stealing OF slave within the iu-
risdction and against the laws of VIRGINIA. is not
"ie'ory or other crime' within the meaning of
the second section of the fourth article of the
Constitution of the United States
Resolved, That in the opinion Of this Lerisla-
lure, stealing slave within the jurisdiction and
against the laws Of Virginia is crime within
me meaning OF the second section of the fourth
article OF the constitution of the United States.
Resolved, That the Governor be requested to
transmit the foregoing preamble and resolution to
the Executive Department of Virginia.
Before the adjournment, Gov. Seward sent in
a Message declining to transmit the resolutions,
but the Legislature did not see fit to provide for
their transmission in any other manner The
New York Express says the whole proceeding
on the subject was nero humbug-that the sub
stantial matter, the repeal of the jury law, was
perfectly in the hands of the Democratic mem
hers the Whi~e i.a".liner TO mali. ~ ~----:.:--
" ~ hhowIng there was no sincerity in its get
lers up and the sequel proved it. Ii PASSED the
senate, within "a hours Of the adjournment, when
the objection of any one member, under the rule,
would have been fatal to it. This alarmed The
Democrats in the House, (they hoping for oppo-
sl'ion from the Whigs,) and the bill was allowed
to die In the hands of the committee to which it
was referred.
