From the Jacksonville Standard, Dec. q
This body continues to act In great harmony and de-
spa1ches business with unusual CELEBRITY Moet OF the leg
aton, since last has been Of local character We
notice that the free negro bill has passed the Senate with
but two dissenting voices and from intelligence received
have doubt but that It will pass the House. We
truly regret to notice amendment to this bill which,
think shears 1t OF its moral strength and places ia
advocates In q false attitude, viz: tho amendment pro-
vdng that third Of the valuation price be paid foe
the free negro going into slavery, shall be paid 70 the
benefit Of the Poor School Fund The bill as it originally
stood was far preferable.
By this amendment the people of Florida made li
BILE tho imputaon by the enemies Of the South that
are, through our poverty from the institution, com
cato Vito Children We would aaEsss srssrrsd to to &c
oil pass without coupling any pecunary consider ass
whatever to the contract but allowing the free negro 70
choose bis MASTER upon the terms that slaves held.
viz for and IN consideration Of the care and support In
health sickness and old age and the full protection uu
der all circumstances from the master; In default Of
thus choosing master, 70 leave the State.
Then the Institution would have been put upcn the
right ground upon Bible and Christian ground whore 20
Southern man need fear to place It.
The Governor sent message to the Legislature the
18th inst informing them that abolition and incendiary
documents were being circulated In the State, and that
Helpers Impending Crsis'' had been directed him
In the House bill has been introduced providing for
preventing the circulation of books, newspapers pam
phets, &c, tending to Incite the slaves to revolt
which advocate such doctrines, through the United
States mail, and for other purposes"
The punishment is inadequate to the offence, hanging
should be the penalty.
