CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES
WASHINGTON, Jan. "a, 1850.


Mr., Clays resolution instrucling the Committee on
The Library purchase, il can be procured at
sonable price, the original manuscript OF Gen. WASH
ington's Farewell Address, was taken up.
Mr.. Clay made brief but eloquent speech the sub
ect OF the sentiments OF Washington, the means OF
preserving the Union the danger attending the present
controversy between the North and South and the APP
condition OF things
The motion was agreed to-
Alter tle presentation OF memorials, the Bill from the
Committee on the Judiciary to carry into effect the third
clause OF the second section of the third article of the
Constitution relative fugitive slaves was talon
Mr. Butler called the attention of the Senate to the
OF carrying into effect provision of The Consti
tuition. The subject was one OF great importance to
the holding States The State of Kentucky losl
annually 10000 by the elopement OF slaves. Missouri
suffered in the same way On the WHOLE the South LOST
$4,000 year these elopements He knew that sta
tutory enactmens were of little avail when parties were
not disposed to act in goodtah. Originally the States
We're to be liable TO aid in experimenting ugyes There
was no difficulty formerly IN recovering iugtlVe slaves
Many people from the South took slaves with their
families to the North without molesation. The State
authorities exercised the Constitutional provision But
IN consequence of case arising in New York, be-
came necessary in 1888, to enact law requiring state
officers TO appehend ugitves. This act was executed
IN good faith, Tor time, until New York and Pennsyl-
Ssnla-always first on this subect-passed laws which
INSTRUCTED the recovery OF ugtyes. New York forbid
the owners OF fugitive slaves from the OF her courts
Or officers to apprehend them The Legislation OF New
DIRK and OF many Of the other States was fraudulent
evasion st the constitutional provision.
Mr. Dickinson here said the Courts OF New York had
pronounced the law unconstitutional
Mr.. Butler aware of this, and he intended te
give credit to the bench Of that State, while the same
time, he denounced the conduct OF Governor OF tina
State now Senator here, who had refused to deliver
fugitive slave; in which he could not be sustained ever
by his own Legislature He went through with the pro-
including Ohio and declared them to be deliberate and
sklltu frauds on the Constitution.
He gave hint that Senator from Maine, formerly
Governor OF that State, had conducted himself treache-
rousy towards the constitution on this subuct and his alb
