Fifth. Congress shall have power by law
TO pay on owner, who shall apply. tie full

same manner as the owner could sac.
Sixth. No future amendment or amend
ments shall affect The preceding articles,

The last resolution declares that the
Southern States have q right TO the faithful
execution Of The laws for the recovery OF
slaves, and such laws ought net to be re-
pealed or modified so as 10 impair their ef
fciency. All laws in confrct with the fu-
: gitivs slave law, il shall not be deemed i'm
proper for Congress to ask their repeal
The fugitive slave law ought TO be SO al
tered as to make the fee of the Comuis-
sioner equal, whether he decides for or
agaInt the claimant; and the clause author
izing the people holding the warrant &c
summon posse comatdius 10 be so as TO re-
strict TO cases where violence or rescue is
attempted. The laws for the suppression
of the African slave trade ought to be effec
tually executed.
Mr.. Hale said he simply rose 10 say tha!
whatever he thought of the -prsctibiiitJ Of
the resolution Of the Senator from Kentucky
he had no doubt about the purity Of his mo-
tives and integrity, and the disinteresisd
ferrer Of his patriotism, but ths Senator
from Louisiana (Mr. Bshjamin) asked
what We meant by the Senator from New
York { Mr.. KING, } and he now rose to ask
for information. He had listened to the
long and able, but cratic speech of the Sena.
tor from Texas Mr.. WigfalD, who SEEM
ed explicit in his demands, but the Senator
from Kentucky, Mr.. Crittenden}, seemed
of an entirely different sect of poliiics. The
demands put forth to-day were entirely diff
fersntly from those Of the Hon. Senatsr from
Texas. His desire was to know which
represented The demands to be made on our
people, He wanted to know if The Senator
from Kentucky represented the people or
simply effusicn of his patriotic heart. If
the people are really represented by the
Senator from Texas, he really would like
to know which Of these two gentlemen reps
resented the state OF feeling in the South
Mr.. Ssulsbury said he was Union man
and his State was for the Union. He was
prepared to accept the propositions of the
Senator from Ksn,ncky. He asked the
SsnatOr from New Hampshire if he was
willing to do SO and urge the people 10 scs
cept.
Mr.. Hale said not the full extent. though
he liked many things: He had listened 10
denunciatisns Of geographical line SO long
that he could moi suddenly become con-
vert. He would wal, for some assurance
that the line would be kept: He did no.
believe the remedy lay IN new provisions;
but in prompt and faithful execution of
things already in the boad. He was wis
ling to leOk the thing all over. He had
no doubt his State would render anything
just and fair. He would not pledge for his
people. He thought that they had given
the pledge of fidelity, and would give il
still. He thought the gentleman Toe prone
to throw the blame on the Republican par
ty, and make that the pack horse of all e.
wills, present or future. He feared they
would he under the ban, when he had pubs
liciy been DISTINGUISHED, as unworthy tote
on that committee. He supposed his speech
would be called infaming, but the question
would lot be settled here, but settled by
the voice Of public opinion of all christep-
dom. We refused 10 cut Kossuth when
Webster said If delivered tothe Emperor
of Russia, he would stand at the bar TO plead
like criminal before public opinion. We
are making history, but let the future be
what it may, he had no fear but lie right
eOus judgment of public opinion would bs
mightier than fleets and armies.
