is J7ia fdcie evidence OF the fact and the very best
of reasons why this House should not interfere in the
matter.
He had said more than he intended but il was done
to let gentlemen from the North-the peculiar guar
dians of the South-know that they would fake care
of their own interests, and abolish slavery if they
thought proper, or let 1T alone, just they chose
and if they (the North were tired of the Union let
US know it, and be off, which they (hc South would
extremely regret, because they loved the Union
Mr.. BEARDSLEY spoke in favor of amending
the law and said he had voted for the reception of
the petition, that it might be referred, and report
made, so to know whether there were any opprcs.
sve laws in existence in this District and if So
abolish them. Mr.. Beardsleys seat being in sleepy
hollow, it was impossible TO hear him distinctly l.
He was in favor OF referring the subject TO the Ju
dietary Committee, that the House nigh, know whe-
Their the law should be repealed or not.
Mr.. STEPHENS Of Georgia said he agreed with
the gentleman from New York, (AIr Beardsey,) and
thought the proper to pursue to refer the
subject TO the Judiciary Committee who would re-
port upon the facts, and aay all unnecessary excite
mcnt which he was sorry TO every occasion
when slavery was mentioned 1t was a question
Of freedom which should be investigated One gen
teman had stated the law in this case to be one
thing-and another different thing. He wanted to
know the true state of the case, the law and the
facts, which the House could only know by report
from the Judiciary Committee. great deal had
been said about dissoving the Union but the feelings
they were ardently attached. Politicians may talk
about dissosiug the Union, which was nothing but a
spirit Of demagoguism, and TO which the People would
never subscribe, and which can never be accomplish
ed without their consent In Georgia the moment a
case was adjudicated, whether white or black the
individual was released, if innocent, and not sold as
slave; and if this law was oppressive, he would
vote for its repeal
Mr. KING, of Massachusetts, said he concurred
with the sentiments of the gentleman from Georgia,
H., onI E,,. al Il
Jury Of this District in support of his views.
Mr.. SAUNDERS, of North Carolina, explained,
and said that nc had stated what the gentleman had
read, and was aware that the grand Jury had asked a
modification Of the law.
Mr.. KING seid that he read these opinions that the
! House might know how TO act-and that speedily
and he hoped the subject would be referred TO q Sc
lect Committee, as the other committees were over
burdcned with other business.
Mr.. COBB, of Georgia, said he did not concur with
the views Of his colleague (alr Stephens), who had
caught up the special arguments Of the gentleman
from New York (NIr Besrdsey), and reiterated his

THE MAN FOR THE CRISIS.

The war against commerce and the
equal rights of the South which the
Tariffites have SO long and success.
fully carried in disguise and under
false pretences-is now openly pro,
claimed by the Home League--and
they are appealing to sectional self,
ishness and to abolition, fanatcism &
every element ofhostility to the South
and arming and organizing for de-
cisive struggle.
1t is wonderful that the invaded
South, without derogation to the pow
ers Of fidelity of other Chiefs of the
republican army, is II strange or IL
liberal, or arrogant at such crisis,
that the section Of the Democratic
brotherhood conspicuously singled
out for assault-sufering now under
the heaviest blows of the adversary
and marked for especial sacrifice and
subiugation-should, as the most as
sailed and endangered, claim Of their
brethren that one of their own men
should be entrusted with the leaders
ship in chief-one whose worthlness
none deny-and who not only OF
southern principle, but of southern
strain, southern born and bred, can
be relied on with smplicit faith for
bearing himselfthrough every change
of the conflict with the unerring con-
stancy of southern instinct9 OF the
last of our Presidents there have been
2 from the north and 2 from the west
On the principle then oil mere rota-
ton it is our turn and more. The ex-
perience the country has had otsouth-
ern Presidents, the illustrous time
beginning with a Washington, is in
our favor. The Democracy surely
will not distrust a Southern man, to
enforce the Jeffersonian creed, which
they have proudly adopted from a
Louisville messenger. (Louisville, Miss.) 1842-1843, 1843-03-11
