Mr.. Blaine on tho Personal Liborty
Bill,

We publish to-day In our paper the remarks
made by Mr.. Blaine. Of Augusta In our House
OF Representatives, March Is, 1861 on the re-
peal Of the Personal Liberty Bill. Mr.. Blaine
presents, perhaps as clearly as they well could
be, the considerations which induced him and
others, after the opinion Of the judges had been
obtained, to support repeal Of the law, and
the publication is made by ourselves as an act
Of justice to those members Of the legislature
who were compelled by convictions OF duty to
vote as did Mr.. Blame for the repeal Of the
law. We think the mistake made was in ask
the opinion Of the judges at all. 1t certainly
would have been safe procedure to have allow
ell the law to remain, its constitutionality to
be tested in the usual way. We early express
ed our convictions Of inexpediency OF any
legislative action whatever ON the subject, and
we never supposed any action our State might
take on the question would be regarded as very
important in bringing about peaceful solu-
ton Of our national troubles. Amer the opin-
ions Of the judges was obtained necessity
was forced upon the legislature to do some
thing, and II was simple question OF which
was the better course. to repeal the law alto
gether, or to modify It so as to bring Its pro-
visions in the line of the Constitution. We are
satisfied with the course adopted. In publishing
these remarks OF Mr.. Blaine, we have thought
this much was due for US to say In yindjcation
of our position.

peaceably to their respective abodes within

hereby, In virtue Of the power In me vested by
the Constitution. convene both houses Of Con-
gress. Senator's and Representatives are, there
fore, summoned to assemble at their respective
chambers, at IL o'clock NJ. Thursday, the 4th

termine such measures as In their wisdom the
public safety and interest may seem to demand.
In witness whereunto have hereunto set my
hand, and caused the seal Of the United States
to be affixed.

day Of April, in the year Of our Lord 1861 /,
