THE ERA DE- ,aa

A reference to the proceedings of the Virginia
General Assembly of 1852 has brought to our
eye the following resolutions, which, we confess,
struck US with some surprise. 1t will be seen that
the Republican Tor, perhaps it would be called
at this day, the Democratic) Legislature of that era
took ground stronger than has ever heretofore been
taken on the subject. We do not bring the matter
forward now either to approve or disapprove the
sentiments Of the resolutions but as piece of Gu
rious history, with which it may be well enough
the public at large should be acquainted. -Whig.
