Against the HiIi AbOIishiug

slavery in the District Of CO.
IuInbia.
Mr. Kennedy md. said lie wished to
enter most solemn protest, in the name
Of Maryland, against the measure pro-
posed by this bill He knew that Mary
land was too smal! and had too few white
population to attempt any successful re-
sistanco against any combined attempt
Of either powerful section, and it might
be that she was not, by protest or other.
wise, TO obtain her rights as an equal
under the Constitution. He contended
that the faith Of the government was
pledged to Maryland and Virginia not 20
interfere with slavery in the District
The citizens Of the District desire and
have made no application for any eman-
cipatinn, and Congress has no more right
to intetie with their rights than when
they were citizens Of Maryland and Vir-
ginia. He quoted at considerable length
from the report Of the Committee of the
House Of Representatives in 1886, against
the interference with slavery in the Dis.
trict. It was his Judgment that slavery
was a doomed institution in the State of
Maryland and it did not need any stim-
ulus to accelerate the decrease, and any
such a'temp: would be attended by the
most disastrous consequences. Maryland
has to-day s3,7l8 free colored people
In 1850 it had 165,0S9 The total col
ored population in 1860 was 10, ,e06
decrease in slaves in ten years 3, ,1SS in
crease Of free negroes S,997. New York
and New England. with III $50 square
miles, have 1900 colored population,
and Maryland with only 10, 755 square
miles, S3,7l9 colored population. The
war has already cut off all the resources
Of Maryland, and the passage Of this
measure would utterly disorganizc the ag-
ricultural condition, cause the emigration
Of the lest population, and tend to the
utter ruin Of the State. That little State
had expended upward Of sixty millions
in the las: thirty years, and what good
was going to result to the North from n
scheme which would result in the ruin of
4 sister state ? In case of emancipation
we must have colonization, or else scenes
Of blood and carnage would follow {; for
the two races can not live together. He
feared from the character Of the legisla-
tion proposed. his last hope for resto-
ration Of the Union would be destroyed.
The people Of Maryland have been loyal
to the Union, and trusted to the e. Cd
faith and pledges Of the President and
/ Congress to preserve the rights of all the
States, but he feared a relentless section
al policy wo'd destroy all faith and trust.
from self interest, continue to fan the
flames Of civil discord. But our children
should be taught that we are all members
Of the same family, and that our country
can never be permanently divided. We
must instil into their minds those senti-
ments Of f-atornal affection and pure pat
riotism which alone can restore peace
to our country, and eradicate all traces
Of the animosities which have been en-
gendered by unholy rebellion"

Health of NEr. ana Mrs. Lincoln.

1t will be a source Of regret to the
nation to learn that Mrs. Lincoln has
been i'll for some time past as to confne
her to her room, But few persons have
been allowed to see her, and these her
most intimate friends.
Since the loss of Willie Lincoln. both
the President and his lady have been
afflicted in mind and body. Added to
this, the onerous duties of the Executive
have so heavily weighed upon his mind
as to bring about an indisposition, from
which he is slowly recovering. In con-
sequence Of the i'll health Of Mr.. and
Mrs Lincoln it is probable that no more
receptions will be held during the present
session of Congress.

IT'S SPRING.

ny q. G..
Lo gladncss to tho heart is born,
Cold winter winds are passed,
Sweet songstcrs hail the balmy morn,
And Flora walks nt last,
To fling
Bright gems Of beauty, rich and rare,
O'er all the smiling earth,
While gladncss laughing everywhere,
Proclaims with joy, the birth
OF Spring,
With her returns the gentle shower,
The pearly dews Of night,
The bursting bud, the opening flower,
The beautiful, the bright,
TO wing
Lifc's noeting hours with bird and bee,
And gaudy butterflies,
Der fragrant meadow, vale and lea,
Where every flower replies
'Tis Spring.
Aurora plants the blushing morn,
And Sol the evening sky;
Fragrance on every breeze is Borne,
And richest melody.
Then sing
Her welcome to each woodland green.
Let nature all rejoice,
When life anew bcdecks the scene
And whispers in voice,
'Tis Spring.
