HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
AFTERNOON SESSION.


A call Of tho House was had, when IS mem
bers answered to their names.
MIR. VAN VORRIS was excused on account
of indispostion.
The question pending when the House took q
recess being the reference of the bill to prevent
inter marriage of white and colored persons,
Mr.. Woods demanded the previous question, on
which the yeas and nays were demanded and re-
sulted-yeas 36. nays 48.
The question then turned upon the reference
of the bill with Instructions.
Mr.. HILLS'said the bill might be passed, bat
it would make no difference. The courts had
decided that persons less than half black are
citizens and voters. Was ii proposed TO forbid
citizena TO marry whom they choose. He
thought the best way to avert the evil COM
plalned of. II should begin By iOrbiding the
issue of license to such persons. The bill was
defective In Its details.
Nh. MYERS thought /. Was no COED reason
to refuse 10 pass the bill, tina. It would be use
less He hoped the bill might be passed to pre-,
vent an amalgation, condition Of things ot all
Others 10 be deprecated, as unnatural aud re-
pugnant to all our sense ofproprie;y.
Mr.. McCUNE remarked that the iFrepgessi-
BILE negro was up again. But II was not bis

wish, and sgainet bis will. He may be often.

All this came Of q political motive, and no;
from any real hatred of amalgsmstion itselt.

n Il was remarked by one of the speakers
AZ the late Constitutional Union Convention that
there WAS hardly family in Kentucky which
had not its branches throughout Ohio, Indiana,
and Illinois. This Ia certainly true, and those
branches, intertwined by marriage, are the
stroneest bonds to hold together the Union. Bot
the roots of the parent trees have shot further
than the Border States along the Ohio rivers
they have penetrated to the northern chain Of
lskes, and to the Gulf Of Mexico, and from ocean
70 ocean. Il is computed BY the Baltimore Amsf.
lean that at least one million OF the citizens OF
the South are.natives Of the Northern States,
who have settled in the South, and in many in.
stances intermarried with Southern families,
and are among the most loyal and public
spirited of the population. This is especially
true of Georgia, South Carolina, and Louisiana.
Charleston has large proportion OF natives OF
the Northern States among her population,
and the city Of Savannah is, in its habits and
aspect, more like sober, business New Eng
land town than Southern city. New Orleans
and Augusta have each large N Northern ele-
ment, and there as elsewhere Northern adopted
citizens are among the most valuable and reli-
able men In the community. The number oi
citizens of the North, Of Southern birth, 10 also
very large. They may be found everywhere
In the most remote portions Of New England,
and are scattsred oil over the North.W estern
States. There are more natives of Virginia
no v resident In New York than Of New York
srsr sident In Virginia. In many instances they
too, have intermafried into families in the land
Of their adoption. Thus linked together BY the
most sacred ties, well may our Baltimore cotem
porary ask what new and unspeakable horrors
are involved in the idea Of civil war! Does II
not become all good men, all men who have hu
mani,y, all men who are not given over 70 hard
ness of heart and demoniacal malice and cruel.

ADJUSTMENT.

From his speech in the Senate Saturday, Jan.
18th
II n n y y
Republication is subordinate to Union, as ey-
~erything else, and ought to be--Republicanism,
Democracy, every other political name and thing;
all are subordinate-and they ought to disappear
in the presence of the grea. question of Union.
SO far as | am concerned, it shall be so; it should
be 80 if the question were sure to be tried as il
ought only to be determined, by the peaceful Or
deal Of the ballot. l shall be so all the more since
there is one side prepared to refer it to the arbi-
.trament of civil war. 1 have such faith in this
Republican system of ours, that there is no polit.
ical good which l desire, that / am not content to
seek through its peaceful forms Of administration
without. invoking revolutionary action. If Others
shall invoke that form of action to oppose and
overthrow the Government, they shall not, so far
as it depends on me, have the excuse that / obs.i-
nately left myself to be misunders TODD. In such
a case l can afford to meet prejudice with concili-
alton, exactiOn with concession which surrenders
DO principle, and violence with the right hand oil
peace. Therefore, sir, so far as the abstract cues.
ton whether, by the Constitution of the United
ShntO'b Nv bOhushhuu1 II u buCu OH III
laws of a State, is still a man or only property, ]
answer that, within that State, its laws on thai
subject are supreme; that when be has escaped
from that State into another, the Constitution re.
CARDS him as q bondsman who may not, by any
law or regulation OF that State, De discharged from
his service, but shall be delivered up, on claim, 20
the party to whom his service is due. While pru.
dence aud justice would combine in persuading
you to modify :be acts of Congress on that sub.
ject, SO as not to oblige private persons to assist in
their execution, and to protect freemsn from be.
ing, by abuse Of the laws, carried into slavery, |
agree that all laws Of the States which relate to
this class of persons, or any others recently com-
ing from or resident in other States, and which
laws contravene the Constitution of the United
States, or any law Of Congress passed in confor-
nifty thereto, ought to be repealed.
Secondly. Experience in public affairs has con-
frmed my opinion, that domestic slavery, existing
in any State, is wisely left by the Constitution Of
the United States exclusively to the care, manage
ment and disposition Of that State and If it we're
