| Mr. Blair offered the following amend
ment.
| Resolced, further, That it is the opinion of
| this General Assembly that the persons who
instigated the late war, the men who fired
| the Southern heart are unworthy of the con-
| fidence of the people of North Carolina, and
| should never be allowed to vote or hold
| office.
| CThe reading of the amendment re-
ceived with misses. The disorder was prompt
ly checked by the Speaker.)
| Mr.. Blair asked for the yeas and nays on
| the amendment, but the call was not sus-
| tanned.
| The amendment was rejected.
Mr.. Russ addressed the House in support
of the resolutions. He had reason to be-
| lieve that an effort was being made to secure
| at the hands of Congress, the overthrow of
| existing State governments and the estab-
lishment of Territorial governments in their
stead. He believed that there existed no
people more loyal than those of this State,
and thought her maligners should be silenc-
| ed and the fair fame of the State authorita-
| lively indicated by its Representatives
! Mr.. Blythe, regretted the introduction of
| the resolutions. He could not conscientious
! ly support them because they were untrue,
| In that they asserted that the Union men of
the State had not been prosecuted People
in other sections of the State might be loyal
He did not undertake to question their 10y
atty. The reverse of this true to con-
siderable extent in his section of the State.
Mr.. Davis, suggested that gentlemen rep
resenting disloyal constituencies, if there
were any such, might support the resolutions
with proviso specially excluding their
counties from it's purvfew.
MIR. Freeman, was for peace and harmony
and deprecated the re-opening of old wounds
and the agitation of old differences.
Mr.. Lyon expressed similar sentiments
He regarded the resolutions fre-brand. a
sensation" movement merely, calculated to
injure rather than benefit the people, and the
State. He moved an indefinite postpone
ment. Not agreed to.
Mr.. Lowe moved to adjourn. Not agreed
The resolutions were amended, ON motion
of Mr.. Lyon, by inserting, in the last of the
series, after the words " law and ORDER the
words, an, union"
The revolutions as amended, were then
adapted as follows:

Mr.. Stevenson said he voted in the mega |
tive not because he believed the people of !
the State disloyal, but because he thought |
the resolutions should not have been intro |
duced.
The House then adjourned
Mr.. Jenkins of CASTOR requests us to say
that he was absent when the last vote was
taken on the resolutions, being on business
in the committee room. He would certainly |
have voted against the resolutions.
We extracted above from the report in |!
the Sentiael, it being much fuller and doubt |
less more correct than ours.
