LYNCmBURG SEPTEMBER IL. 1850
TIE \

On Friday, the House OF Representatives. vO-
ted 10 reconsider the Boundary Bill. which result
ed IN lis passage, by a majority OF 10. We are
g~ratfed at this result, and look forward to a final
settlement OF the question, which Is distracting
the country. After a severe struggle 10 strangle
The bill by opposition, il has passed and is now
submitted 10 Texas for her approval. That il
will command the approval of the people there
can be no doubt. The people are DESTROYS of a
settlement OF this question, and of this settlement
upon the most amIcable terms. We are 10th to
believe that a majority Of the people will favor
dlsunion. In estimating public sentiment, some
are deceived. The firm and Incorporating
stand OF the South is taken by many, as an indi.
cation of disunion sentiment. Such is not the
fact. The South is firm in insisting upon her
rights in the Union, aud under the Constitution,
that she may serve the Union. There is union
in the South for the sake of the Union. There is
resistance upon the part of The South for the pur-
pose Of maintaining the Constitution. And how
ever much some may desire disuhion, the great
body Of the people are opposed 10 SO fatal a step.
We are inclined to the belief that the passage
of the Boundary Bill will have a saluta.y effect,
and will not only avert the threatened civil war,
but give peace and harmony to the Union, in the
stead of discord and agitation, if it be but follow
ed up with the other measures pending in the
lower branch of Congress. 1.-THE peace mpa-
sures" should be speedily passed, and passed in
that form which will tend mostly to allay the ex-
element now prevalent. That such will be their
fate we have no doubt. And if such is not their
fate, the will Of the people will not be fully repre-
scented.
The vote of Thursday upon the third reading
OF this Bill, we give below

The reader will perceive bv examination, that
II received the support of a large number of both
Northern and Southern votes. An ANALYSIS of
the vote will show that 50 of the Northern Rep
resentativeS and AZ Southern Representatives vo-
ted for tin the negative the vote stood, North
ern Representatives 70, Southern Representa-
tives "a. This view shows that a majority of
the Northern Representatives voted against the
reading, while a majority of the South voted for it;
thus 1t is the charge, that the Southern Union
party is leagued with the North to the injury of
the South is plainly retuted. And if the reader
will examine the list he will find that the entire
Free-Soil vote was cast in the negative.
