h.,rt tx full of tender sympathy for them
on account of their being so deirauded OF
their rights: and whereas this sympathy
can be so much more intelligently exer-

the latter must either be weakened or fall
therefore be IL
Res0ired That our representatives, in the
national Congress be requested to vote Tor
an appropriation TO encourage and enable
the dissatisfied element of our colored
population TO emigrate 10 the Republican
States of the North, where they may ENJOY
their rights and bo the recipients of most
hearty sympathy and the South be relieved
uf a fearful strain upon our political sys-
ten.
TIE OBJECT.
Mr.. Magruder asked that the paper be
PLACED on the calendar. In urging this
action ne spoke IN substance as follows:
This resolution has threefold object IN
view
10 show the satisfied element Of our
colnred population that we are willing to
hnye them in our midst and to give them
ali the rights necessary 10 their happiness
and success; and to the dissatisfied element
TINT we are equally willing 10 get rld OF
them. and to help them to 90 where they
viii have the sympathy and rights for
which they clamor.
= 10 show the Republican party. of the
North that we do not object to their SYM
llthy, but are willing that they shall nave
t.e colored people in their midst, where
tl. sympathy can be intellgently eXer-
c-..l. and are even willing to help send
tfm among them.
olt political system engende-ed by TINS
rare strife. Society is not formed Tor
government, but government for society;
aud when the social fabric is antagOnlzed
Us me political fabric the latter must
V,aseu or fall. And We of the South wish
tl~low our love for our form OF govern
mont. aud our LOYALTY 10 It, ana therefore
ar. ANXIOUS to remove any cause Which
ttrestsns it's stability. We believe that 10
send The colored people North Is the only
wlr bv which the people of that section
cnn learn the difficulties of our SITUATION
VIZ. bv experience And in this way alone
.ctn the question be met IN anything IKE
swrt II Cancellation by both sections OF

change of opinion OF the northern hion
who have settled IN our midst
