piled to the argument that the admission Of
California WAS unconstitutional because States only
could be admitted under the constitution, that all
the States were territories up to the time Of their
admission except Vermont Texas and Tsnnessee. The
BILL passed It. In voting for 1t he had to be along
side Of the very pillars f the State right church. The

North and West There but few failures where.
There were some evasions Of the law but 1t had been
better enforced than any other statue of the land This
resolution says this Fugitive Slave law to remain
repealed and unanended. What apology any South
to vote it, who viii net vote to quell agitation
Why will not the Senator vote for it. The
reason is obvious There is treason in it. He
opposed to the passage Of the Law abolishng the
fave trade in the District Of Columbia but formed
part of the compromise he would vote for repeal
to morrow. The Senator complained Of the tariff of

delegation voted fer it, he had dwelt much upon
the right Of secession He never gave much consi-
