THE NEBRASKA QUESTION IN LOUISIANA.
The following resolutions were unanimously adopted
by the Legislature of Louisiana
BE 1t resolved by the Senate and House of Representa-
tves of the State of Louisiana in General Assembly CON
ysned That the people Of the State of Iouisana have
viewed the agitation of the question of slavery WITH
the deepest concern and they regarded the adoption o
the measures Of 1850, known as the compromise
sures, as final settlement of that exciting subject.
Resolved That in the judgment of the legislature of
the State Of louisiana those compromise measures werv
intended to havca more lasting and permanent effect
than the mere adjustment of the difficulties arising out
Of the then recent acquisition of Mexican territory and
that by their adoption certain great principles were
established which not only furnished a remedy for the
then existing evils but which would for all to come
avoid similar agitation by Withdrawing from the hoor
Of Congress the question Of slavery and committing s
decision to those who alone interested It, and who
