ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the State she was de-
rrivcd Of large portion Of her territory
aud taxable property, and by the fortunes
of war her people have been despoiled and
Impoverished, thereby rendering additional
taxation adequate to the payment Of the
interest on the whole debt, burdensome
and oppressive. and we'll calculated to de-
press the present value Of the remaining
property Of the people of the State and
retard the influx Of immigration and cap
ital; now. therefore,
"Eesoiced by the Senate, (the House of
Delegates concnrring.) That while, in the
opinion OF this General Assembly, this pre-
sent Commonwealth Of Virginia ought not
to be considered legally or equitably bound
for the full amount Of the public debt con-
tracted by Virginia prior to her dismember-
ment, nevertheless, If upon refusal on the
part of West Virginia to pay her just pro-
portion OF the said debt, and upon deci-
sion Of the proper judicial tribunal against
the State, The State Of Virginia, tenacious
Of her honor and plighted faith, will assume
and provide for the payment Of ali her OBJ
legations"
The Senate then adjourned.
