THE COMMITTEE OF THIRTy-THREE.
The Compromise Committee of Thirty Three,
in their session to-day, voted TO recommend an
amendment Of the Constitution, to the effect that
no future amendment touching the existing rights
of shareholders in the States should ever be made,
unless with the consent of all the States. Three
Republicans, Messrs. Kellogg, Washburn, and
Tappan voted against it, on the ground that no.
body, at the North, proposed to interfere with
Slavery in the States; that the Republican plat
form expressly repudiated any such idea; and
that tie Administration of Mr.. Lincoln ought to
have an opportunity to develop its policy, without
first being put under bonds to keep the peace.
The Committee did not act on Mr.. Adams
proposition to admit New-MeXico as State,
with or without Slavery, as that Territory may
elect. This proposition is under consideration as
a substitute for the proposition of Mr.. Crittenden
TO resstabIsh the Missouri Compromise line
The Committee is trying very hard to report
a series of propositions that will suit the claims
of the Border Slave States, and it appears as if
they may do il. But where the votes are coming
from to elevate them to the position of proposed
Constitutional amendments, it is difficult to see.
And so far as the Senate is concerned, it is
hard to ascertain where majority is coming
from for anything except some radical Pro-Sis-
very measure. j. o. r.
