HON. WIN. B. SHEPARD.

We have received, through our exchanges, the
speech of this gentleman, recently delivered before
tie Senate of NorIh Carolina, the late aggressive
acts the federal government towards the institutions
of the South We SHALL early as possible, lay it
before readers, who cannot fail to be grated by
its perusa.
Mr.. S. has treated the subject philosopher, a
patriot statesman, and cannot doubt but that his
able exposition must have effect upon the pub
lie MUD of his State. He has exhibited, in a mas
terIy and graphic MANNER the effect of the wallingin
policy OF the general government upon the slave
Staes and shows, from actual statistics, derived from
a comparison OF the census returns since 1890, that
before the end of the present century, if slavery is
restricted TO It's present limits, there will be
than millions of slaves walled up in The centre of
the republic, without any chance of egress, who,
with the exhausted soil Of the country will only
be unable support their owners, but hardly be able
get subsistence for themselves.
Well aiay he ash if there is government on the
face Of the earth which has dealt so IlarshIy and
regardless of the rights OF property, and the security
OF lis people this so-called Tree government 81 the
United States.- With a super-abu ndance of land the
refuse population OF The old world, aliens, convicts
from prisons, aud all others invited come and
occupy them without price, when the honest slave
holder and his sober and industrious slaves no contr
hue more than all others TO the support of government
refused a refuge from overgTown and increas-
ed population and exhausted lands, wher ethey could
procure the comforts and blessings which they are en-
titled by bond of uniou and tile wise dspen-
sations of providence. The right of secession, as
of The reserved rights OF the States is also ably
supported by train Of bold and manly arguments as
well by the opinions of the abest OF our states-
in former times. We cannot concur in all he
says with respect to South Carolina notification in
1892 hut in respect the present aspect of the ques
ton We agree with him fully, We need not, are
sure, say insure for this able effort ii careful
and candid perusal. MoriOn Is. g. Star.

THE LEGISLATnRE-

We refer our readers to columns to-day for the
proceedings of the Legislature from Monday to We'd
nesday evening, inclusive. riE
In the Senate, on Thursday, the appeal heretofore
taken from the decision of the Chair the effect that
motion could not be entertained to reconsider bill
the second time, was taken up, and Mr.. Ellington
argued in support of the bill The bill for the relief
OF the Wilmington and Manchester Rail Road had
been rejected, re-consdered and again rejected and
this motion was to reconsider again. The Speaker
ruled the motion out of order, and gave his rea-
sons at length for so doing. The question was put
to the Senate, and the decision of the Speaker was
sustained. The Senate then took Mr.. Barringer's
Tariff Resolutions, and passed them unanimo
y; and afterwards went INFO the consideration of Res
olutions of similar character from the Commons.
We have noticed this subject elsewhere in our paper
to-day.
In the Commons, on Thursday, the bill to incorpo-
rate the Yadkin Navigation Company reported
from the committee on Internal Improvements Mr.
Gordon offered an amendment providing that the State
shall subscribe 100000 to said Company, whenever
100000 shall have been subscribed by individuals.
Mr.. Gordon advocated tie amendment at length and
Mr.. Mizell opposed it the ground that the condi-
ton OF the public finances would not justify the APP
preparation at this time. Mr.. Gordon replied to Mr..
MizelI, and Mr.. Mclean also replied, advocating the
amendment and the bill The amendment re-
jected-yeas g. nays 20. The bill then passed lis
second reading.
During the evening and night sessions the House
had under consideration the bill providing for in-
proving the Raleigh and CASTOR Rail Road, by means
of connection between the old Stockholders and the
State. This bill organizes Company,-the old
stockholders to subscribe $500 900 and to become
joint owners with the State of the Road which is
tiulateG at 100000; and the old stockholders be
released from their bonds. Messrs. Stevenson, and
Hill of New Hanover. spoke in opposition to the
measure, and Messrs. Saunders of Wake, and Ray
ner in favor of it. Some warmth was exhibited du-
ring the discussion.
The House sat until 10 o'clock on Thursday night,
but no vote was taken upon this bill.

WASHINGTON, January 10.
GARNET SEsslaN-GENERAL QUlTMAN. While
write the Cabinet is in Session. and it is said mot
rumor merely,) that the subject of its deliberations
is no less parsonage than his Exoelency, Governor
General Quitman. The story goes, that the District
Judge of Louisiana before whom the against the
General is brought, has made application to the Pres
ident for advice, and the opinion is advanced-I do
not avow it-that the Cabinet will decide to grant
the Court the Corpora's guard asked for in the event
it be needed to induce the Generals attendance in
New Orleans,
The Spanish Minister. De La Barca, has been urg-
ing matters the past week quite strenuousy; and it
as much at his instance, as the Federal authorities
of Louisiana, that the reguisition is made. De La
Barca is determined to push the suit to extremes.
He therefore appeals to the President, and demands
compliance with the treaty obligation of 1913; and
the Court backs him, because, it contents Quitnlan,
has been guilty of high treason, in furnishing arms
to the enemies of the Republic, &C., &c., &c. do
men,s for do no, but it is manifest that De La Baroa
is cross about the affair.
