EUREKA OIL
IS the result of many years’ experiments md<> by a
medical man, a dealer in slaves, in efforts to meet
and successfully combat the different ills aud aches
those unuer his care were subject to from the various ex
posures m traveling and camp lite. It has been found
from experience to possess restorative anti heal ding vir
tues equalled by no other mixture or compound yet dis
covered for the follow ing affliction* :
Sores or Eruptions of tne Skin, Ulcerated Sores on the
or any part of the body, Rheumat sin. Neuralgia.
Head Ache, Tooth Ache, Bone Felloas, Tetters, Pains,
B<>re Throat, Swollen Gians, Sore or weak Eyes in man
or beast. Ear Ache, Cramp or Pain in the Stomach,
Colic, Weak Back, Spinal Affections, Sore Breasts, Sore
or Cracked Nippies, Fever Sores, Scald Head, Fresh
Cuts and Bruises, all Pains in the Limds and Joints,
Sprains and Strains, Swollen Feet and Ankles, Barns,
Stricture
We claim no magic for the workings of this great
toother and successful competitor in the healing art, of
all the remedies which have been put forward for public
favor. If the first application does not give relief, try the
second, third or tourth, and we w:il guarantee the suffer
er shall not be disappointed. Where it has been intro*
dueed it has superceded DeOrath’s and all othr reme
dies. We challenge the world for the production of its
equal in allay ing pam, or in the healing art It would
seem superfluous to mention the wonderful cures pro
duced in a very few minutes in the streets of Columbus,
Ga., when administered to a horse judged to be dying
under the effects cf the hots, and ou two other occasions
when administered to mules suffering greatly with colic.

“ St. Cloud, Oct 30.
“My Dear Cou3in : I have the liveliest desire
that, at the moment when the difference with Por
tugal relative to the Charles et Georges has ierrni
naied, the questiou of the engagement of free labo
rers ou the African eoaot etlouM be definitely ex
amined and finally settled on the truest principles
of humanity and ) ustice.
•• I energetically claimed from Portugal ice roii
tution of the Charles et George?, because I wif! al
ways maintain iutanct the independence ol the ns
tiChat fiag 1 and ia this case, it was only with lire
profound conviction of my right that 1 risked, wp-h
the Kong ot Portugal, a rupture of tln se lritudiy
relaitous which I am glad to maintain with Li:n.
“ But as to the principle of the engagement ot the
negroes, my ideae ar® ter from ceiug settled, it, in
truth, laborers recruited on ibe A'ric ancoast are pot
allowed the exercise of their free will, and if this
euro.merit u only the slave trade iu tiiijpfjs, I will
have it ob no older terms, lor it ie not I wi... still
anywhere protect enterprises contrary to pregreii,
to humanitv and to civilization.
” I beg you to seek on. the truth with the zeal
and ;nle.!’g J uoe whicu you bring to bear on ail at’
fairs which you take ia hand and as the method ot
putting an end to what its a continual cause of dis

The London Times, commenting on this letter,
says :
Nothing like ail apology to Portugal for the l.dig
nity ehe has suffered appeals in tue Imperial let
ter. The English peon e are couseq reutly, itsegms
to us, absolved from the duty 01 making any warm
acknowledgments tor the Emperor's charge -
mind. They have been scandalized at the sight of
an iuiury it,til :ted on a weak Stale which was la
boring to carry out a rignteous ar.d humane policy.
If the French Kmp-ror now thinks LLa- the moon
veuiences of disguised stave-!radmg overbalance
the advantage ‘, w e are glad that he has come to so
sensibie a conclusion; and if he wishes for Coolies
from British India he may have them, providtd that

Burning of the Eastern City.
The story of the burning • f this ship an i the
nrux idrntieLi escue of hr” passengers, is told by Ihe
L uidon T mt.,. The acccuut ie graphic and highly
interesting :
“ Ttr Eistern City was .ip of I,fil'd tons, bound
from Liverpool to Melbourne. She left the Mersey
on tne 10’h of July last, having on board one hun
dred arid eighty pas? egtrs, i.-rty-seven men, effi
errs and t-rerr. and m. re than 1 6fo tons of general
cargo. A;i went we',; til! the Es ;em L';ty had.
passed tfca equator, but on the 21d of Aagu*t it was
6hcjTerf.il’that a fire had broken ou . in the fnre
, i ‘fi;i about two iu the afferuc-. u, and the
i-ca was running i.igli, for the day before there had
been a heavy ssle, ami the ship was ro’aug he-av.iy.
Captain JoLfstone, whore ccnciact throughout the
trausaction app.-ur.> t > have been above all praise,
a’ ‘uce ordeicd all the passsugers and crew on
dsck. _ A4 obeyed the elder save one poor man,
Pc'.er M L -an by name, who war supposed to have
been suff cated in hia berth His absence, how
ever, was not noticed at ’.he moment, the fore-hatch
was closed.
“Xtircugh two holes, one on each side of the
hatch, the ship's company proceeded to pour down
tons of water.’ It was of no avail; the tire could
not bn extinguished, so the next attempt was to try
and smother it. The batch was covered over with
every woollen matter oil which the people could ir.y
tUtir hands ; but this served only to ch-ck, not to
remedy, the evil. Aii night through the men on
hoard kept a: their work, wfoile the women ard
children—foere were sixty ofthtm—were gathered
together on the poop, with such small com orts as
could be provided tor them in a burning ship, with
death preeent'y a’ hand. The boats were ready,
and the captain did his Uest'o-psreuade hts.uekiess
pascengtrs toat at all evei ts there was a retuge for
them; but he knew very wsii that the boa’s would
never live in the sea thou on, and, if they couiii
have d.ed, tiiere w.s not room ia tlism for half his
company and passengers They vr- re six huudrad
miles away from kina and out of the usual track of
ships, so that ths ease seemed evil indeed.
‘ Towards morning it became clear that the fire
was gaining cii the Eastern City, ir- was working
its way intu the after hold. Smoke now appeared
iu the first aud eeeoud cabins. It was sad work:

indeed ; which was that a sail might appear and a

“Allret 2 o’clock in ths afternoon the captain
aud a few passengers had gone into the after sa
loon to get a little food. Before going down they
had scanned the horizon greedy enough, no doubt,
but they could make nothing o! it. The hasty meal
of whicu they were par-taking was probably to bs
their last one in this world. On a sudden the cry
arose on deck, ‘A sail’ a sail!.’ They all rushed
up, but at firct nothing could they see, save a dark
cloud on the horizon. Presently they caught eight
of something white. VYasitasaii? VV ae it a gull ‘<

Another Terrible Ti iim dy Disclosed —tion-
i’ensioa—Ari eat.
The Louisville Courier, of the 20th inst', brought
U3 the following account of another horrible deed of
blood in that State :
We understand that for several da-s past the
most intense excitement has prevailed in Larue
county, m.conseqaaace of the confession of u start
ling tragedy. John, a slave, the property of Barry
Cundiff, who was arrested one year since, charged
with ths murder of M iss ill ary Shaler, has confessed
his participation in the crime, and implicates seve
ral other persons.
This fil.rs Shaler was originally a resident of
Bardslown, but at the time ot the murder was tem
porarily living in Larue county, w ith Mrs. Murphy..
The negro has been twice tried, but each time the
juries tatted to agree. ‘ A few days since the negro
was induced to make a clean breaEt ot the horrible
affair, being threatened w ith lynching, persons teil
ing him that tho Taylor county mob was coming to
hang him.
fit says that fur other persons wore eonpepted
with him In the affair, he being a mere tool, and ro
caivit.g two bandi ed dollars. Tue persons charged
are Mrs. Murphy, her daughter, ugedeixtoeu years,
James McGavock and Win. PickreU These .parties 1
were all immediately arrested. Great excitement
existed ’throughout the community, and so exaspe
ted were the cit zms that it war with much diffi
culty the officers could prevent the crowd from
lynchbg tho accused. In fact, Riokrtll was at one
timo swung up.
Tbo circumstances that led to the murder are said
to be owing to fe tha fact that Miss Shaler was sup
posed to have a eonsideiablo sum of money. It if
geneft.ly believed j however, that the true cause
waj that Fickrell’s brother was about to marry the
unfortunate young wi intro, concerning whou vir
tue therb were serious rep.-rts. His brother and
Mi.Guvoak, a brother in-law, had her murdered to
prevent the marriage.
Wo on em Cannon Balls.—A Russian co; respon

anecdote of the Russian Cznr, which ehows that
not even Emperorß are exempt from the operations
of the sharpers:
The Emperor Alexander gave a lsrg’e order for
the mai.u ecture of cannon balls to some concern
at Helsingfors,- a port on the Gal:. They completed
the order, stacked up aud delivered tho bails, re
ceived their pay, and put the money in their pock
ets. The Emperor be’i:g there one day, took it in
to his head to inspect the balls. Taking one tip, he
discovered it to be exceedingly light for iron, and
taking put his knife scraped it, and behold it was a
wooden ball painted black, as was th3 entire lot.
Ho caused the arrest of the swindfors, and they
were transported for life to Siberia.

The Dougins Celebration lu Illinois—Rpeerh
of ihe Senator,
The telegraph has noticed the celebration at Chi
cago, Wednesday night, iu honor of the triumph or
the Democrats, ted by Senator Douglas, over the
Republicans ol Illinois. About fifhHl persons, from
the State, arrived in the oity during the day. and
about 3,009 from other States. The Times says .
Thu pr, cession extended more than a miie and a
hall, and six men deep—each man carrying a torch
or tra;:: p‘-.ri-l;cy When the procession baited on
j Lake street, so -'-vi:e tLo Tremont, the ch,e: mar
, hat. Hr. B. McYickar, appeared on iheeouth bai
c -ny, and addressed to Stnator Douglas, after the
shouting and music had subsided, an appropriate
speech.
Senator Douglas then stepped forward and spoke
as we have reported him below :
My Friends and FeUor Citizens : —lreturnyou
my lieaititU thanks tor this magnificent deuionsten
ticn. T::e Democracy ot Lhnoia have achieved a
noble victory over tue combined forces of afcoii
tionism and its allies. (Cheers ) You have a right
tuba proud of this gicrioua triumph. It is the tri
umph of the constitution over faction—it ia the tri
umph of the glorious principles of the Union over
fanaticism ai.d sectionalism—(applause)—it is the
triumph of tie pritcipie of self government over
Congressional interference and Executive dictation.
(Immense applause.)
Four monrts ago, I opened the canvass in a
speech from this balcony to several thousand of my
fellow c.tizens; I now appear before you to receive
the congratulations of as many more thousand, re
j,rising over our great success. While it is right
aud proper that you should rejoice at the success of
sound constitutional principles which rnsure peace
and harmony to the republic, it is our duty to enjoy
our victory with moderation. With the result of
this election let ail the asperities, the excitements
aud angry passions which have been arouseauurmg
the contest be buried forever. It is neither just or
m iguaninu us to rejoice over a vanquished foe.—
(Cheers ) Let us teach our puiitical opponents that
although we have triumphed, the victory is for their
good as well as ouis. (Great applause)
When we # put sound, just aud constitutional
principles into practical operation in this govern
ment, the Republicans e, joys the blessings thus
coulerred as well as the Democrats (Good, good,
a;..i cheers.) It is right, therefoie, that allshould re
joice iuour triumph, but it is our duty to be kind,
generous anti magnanimous towards those whom
we cave differed with m cp.nion. (Cheers.) Lotus
remember, that while we ure divided mto poiitioai
par ins and separated from each other by antagonis
tic principles, yet as citizens o! a cimmon Repub
ho, ws will revere ths glories ot our past history,
ai.d we will trust that cur posterity wilt share a
common destiny in the blessings of the government
iu ait time to come. (Applause.) This Union, by
the Constitution, hasconierred upon it the greatest
legacy that Diviue Frovidence has ever conferred
upon a free people. (Hear, hear.) Let that Con
stitution be administered as our fathers made it; let
that bond of union which binds these Stat.s to
gether continue forever, each State retaining its
sovereign rights, disposing of its own internal affairs
aDd regie at 11 g its own domestic institutions to euit
ltrel!. (Cheers.) Let that great principle of popu
lar sovereignty, which underlies our republican in
stiiuti ls, bo oairied out in good faith in the States
aud Territories alike. (Cheers.) Let Illinois re
gulate her ov.’irfiffcira, model her institutions ac
cording to her own wishes, aud mind her own busi
uens, pet mittiug every other State to do the same
tiring, (cheers) and there will then be concord and
fraternal leeltug atnoug the. different States of the
Union. (Renewed cheering)
We must discard forever that fata! heresy- which
preaches that the Union, divided into free aud slave
States, as- ur fathers made it, cannot endure, —
that iaise treachery which says that these States
must all become tree, or all become slave—that
they must become all one thing, or all the other,
should be forgotten forever, (applause;) and the
great principle cf popular sovereignty, cf State
rights and Stats sovereignty should prevail, declar
ing the right of the people of each Slats aud each
Territory to manage their own affairs in their own
way, subject only to the Constitution. (Three
checia ) When that principle shnil be recognized
aud prt claimed by all the American people, North
and South, there wiii then be peace ana harmony,
and fraternity among aii the,Slates of this confed
eracy (good, and applause;) but us long as that
monstrous political heresy shall prevail, that the
North must combine against the South to abolish
siavery every where, aud that the South must com
bine against the Nortli to establish it everywhere—
tiiat there must be sectional strife between the
North aud the South for the ascendancy, so long
tueie wtil.be discord, strife, and hatred between the
different sections of the Union. (“That’s it,’’ and
applause ) That, great issue was directly and dis
tinctly submitted to the pi ople of II it.on at the t e
cent elect on, and thank God, ti.e, principles ot the
Constitution aud the Union have triumphed. (Im
mense epp.ause ) Illinois now stands as she has
ever stood, faitl.tul to the Const tutio..and theUuion;
Illinois now stands as she ever stood, immovable,
upon Democratic principles, maintaining tbe Di-iti-
Ocia.ic organization. (Six cheers.) Every other
fiee S.alS in this Union at some time has wheeled
out of line except gad.-nt Illinois. (Tremendous ap
plagse) From the day that Illinois entered this
confederacy, op to this uour, she ties cast her vote
or Democratic candidates for the Frestdency and
Vioe Presidency at every succeeding election.—
(Renew ed applause.) Aud yet you havo been told
that the duty State that has never failed to staud by
the Democratic organization, aud vote for the Deiu
oi.ratio candidates lor President, is Low to bo read
out of that patty by thoie S ates wuich have alt
gone abolition. Whtu this dark cloud of tauat'cism.
wi..ch has spread over the New England States,
robed over New York, completely ov rwheimed
Pennsylvania, Indiana und Ohio, and reached in its
course the Wabash tjver, jt w.,s there met by the
gallant, united -Democracy of Illinois, who turned
back the tide and kept tbe tlag of the Constitution
and the Union floating over their beloved State. —
(Cheers.)
The victory you are now celebrating i3 one never
io be forgotten, tor it is tbe triumph ot Union, con
stitutional men over tanaticism, sectionalism and
and suuiuD.. (Great applause.) When tbe oid uee
tional par ,es uuittd aga.iist the federal c u.stitu
tuiin and Union, the national men, whether W’higs
or |jemocrate, or by whatever other name they
might be called, united to maintain that cpiibtitu
; tion, to preserve the Union, and drive back the
< dark, fatal cloud of Sectional animosity. (“Sound
dactiiue,’’ and applause.) Illinois now occupies
the proud position ot having fought the good light;
Illinois is now greeted all over the Union—. North
and South, East aud West, —as the only Northern
S’ate that was not overwhelmed in the recent elec
j tiuna. (Cheers) To what cause do the Deuiocra
’ cy ofjlliuoisowe this triumph / It is due to fidelity
■to principle. (Applause.) In Illinois, the tfue
priuoipfo of popular sovereignty baa been sustained;
iu Illinois the Cincinnati platform has been strictly
adhered to; iu Illinois the Democratic organization
. lias been maintained. (Six cheers, and tong cou
■ Itiiutd enthusiasm.) Inlllinois there has beennonew
i tests interpolated into the Democratic platform.—
I (Appiaure.) In Illinois, Democrats have never
j been pruseculed because of differences of opinion,
J provided they remained jiniide of the Democratic
: par:y, and abided the usageo of its orgauizat on.—
j (Cheers) lu Illinois, a liueral, tolerant, just and
j generous policy has prevailed; aud in Illinois, a
I giorious triumph has rewarded that policy. (Ap
plause.)
Now, my friends, the result in this State, con
trasted with the disasters in others, furnishes a les
son. Let tbs bitterness that has been excited, let
the angry passions that have been argused, be
buried with the contest out of which they arose.—
(tj jod, aud cheers) Ret tia meet our qriiow'-Ci'J/.ena
who differed with us iu politics the satpe a® if there
have been uo angry feeling engendered. It is our
duty now to consolidate the parly, to begin to com
bine our forces for the future, in order that we may
present a foil, united, invincible trout to abolition
ism and all of its allied armies. (Cheers ) If wise
aud patriotic councils now prevail, the great battle
of Popular Sovereignly has been fought, and tho
victory won forever. (Cheers.) If we expect to
maintain our liberties, as our lathers transmitted
them to us, we must be vgilaut aud watchful, pre
serving our organization, aud ever ready to present
au united and irresistible front to the common ene
my, wherever he makes hjs appearance. (Cheers.)
My friends J will now renew to you my grate! dl and
profound acknowledgments for the magnificent de
monstration whiph you ltavp made to-night. When
1 arrived home ou the iffth ot July last, aDd was
welcomed by such countless multitudes. 1 never ex

battle is over nov, and the viptury won, and again
I see a crowd before mo even larger than that w.rich
greeted me on my return home. I confess that that
as so large that 1 never expected to see another.
(“ W e are all for Douglas,’’ and cheers) I have
not ventured to suppose that this celebration is in

A Governor Nos-Plcbsed.—The other night as
the Ministers were returning from Conference, on
the East Ter.ne-ttee (Ga.) Railroad, an amusing oc
currence took place between Gov. Brown and Par
son Brownlow. Just before the eare arrived at
Knoxviffe. Gov. Brown came up, and taking the
Parson by tn 6 hand, remarked.
“How do you, brother Brownlow ? I am happy to
see you.’
Tee c urtesywas returned, when the Governor
continued
“I Lope you will moderate in all your notions of
propriety in regard to your fellow-citizens—live a
good Christian—and last, though not least, become
a good Democrat.”
The Parson, with the eccentric look peculiar to
himself, stretched himself up and remarked:
“Governor, an old gentleman ot your politics,
many hundred years ago, took our Saviour upon a
mountain, and preached just such a Sermon ”
The outburst of laughter can be better imagined

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Milledoevu i.e, Nov. 23d, 1858
senate
1 pa-s over the intremuc iun of trills, which I shall
send tomorrow, and take up Mr. Atkinson’s
Nnrr-ry Flit, which was made the special order ct
the day.
Tne bill havirg been to.sd. a motion tc recom
m,’ was agreed u>, and Mr Felton clfared the ol
lowmg preainb'e or amendment, which was ac
cepted
H>, rreas. The 11th Sec. cf the 4th Art. of tho
Constitution of this State declares tnat “there shall
be no! at ure importation of slaves into this State
trom Africa or any ether foreign pluo® after the
first day of October next,*’and without expressing
any opinion in regaid to the policy of re-openiug
the Attic in save trade, but believing that the right
to hold staves, is property, exists everywhere, ex
cept in such localities as by positive law it is pro
hibited, we regard the retention ot such clause in
the Constitution of this State as unnecessary.
“Therefore,” A O . (Here comes A's bill)
Mr Atkinson resumed Ins argument o: Saturday.
The right to purchase aud to hold are as inseparable
as the Siamese Feins. You cannot destroy theens
without endangering the other. Aud, Mr Freei
d nt, to show tl at the African stave trade is a com
mon law right, I will again quote the IL-u. Hiram
Warner in a speech, April Ist, 1856, delivered in
the House of Representatives: “This question,”
he says, “came before the people, of Great Britain
in the year 1817. A French vesse, called l.e
Louis, engaged in the African slave trade, was cap
tured by a British cruiser. France, at this time,
not having entered into treaty stipulations abolish
ing that trade, the vessel was taken into a British
port, aud condemned by the Vice Admiralty Court
as a lawful prize, being engaged in au unlawful
traffic, forbidden by the universal taw ot nations.—
Au appeal was had to the Higher Court ot Admiral
ty Tins Court reversed the judgment of the Court
below, and held that the African slave trade was
not unlawful. The judgment of the Court wp.s read
by Lord Stowell, and I will read a pari of it.” (Air.
A. reau.)
The lime has arrived in the history of this coun
try, for men to takß position on this subject, and
the Southern people ought to pluck rite oeam out
of their own eyes, before they attempt to cast the
mote out of the eyes of our Northern brethren. If
we first purge our Constitution aud our laws ot
those abolition heresies, we can then consistently
ask the North to believe wiiiiua; but while we ac
knowledge the evilot slavery by prohibiting it from
our shores, can we expect them to caii it anything
but a siu 7 There is but one way lo light this quee
tion, and that is to place it on the right ground—the
strong ground. We demoralize our cause by tak
ing weak positions aud making unfounded admis
sions. I have not the slightest doubt of our final
success, if we take right ground and shape cur ac
tions accordingly. If we tuke wrong ground, I fear
all lj lost. The fire of fanaticism is coining down
upon us. To resist it successfully, we must put on
the punopoiy of law —arm ourselves at every point.
This we cannot do, while we acknowledge that the
means by which we acquired it ought to be profiibi
ted.
Air. Spalding, of Mclntosh. I would not say a
word to the prejudice of this bill, nor to place the
gentleman woo has jußt taken his sent in a wrong
position. If I make an error, I beg that he wifi
correct me. On Saturday, he ealied gentlemen to
order on the subject of ms African slave trade;
but if this bill does riot contemplate the re-opening
of this trade, for what is it .introduced 7 1 should
be sorry if the gentleman had introduced it here as
a bone of discord, to create a division, either in the
democracy of Georgia, or the national democracy;
The gentleman says the existence of this clause ur
tushes an argument lor our enemies. How ! Tho
gentleman says this is anew issue. I refer him to
the Missouri aud Nufificatfon issues. I hold that
this section is one of the Btrcugest in favor ol slave
ry. Just after tlte clause under discussion, it denies
the Legislature tho right to emancipate. (Mr. JS.
rend the section.)
Air. Atkinson. That's the good part.
Mr. .Spalding. Why did they not aim to strike
that out too (
Mr. A. No. 1 don’t want to do that.
Mr. Spalding. Tbe wtiole section is fraught with
strength. Why do they want, it stricken out if not
to open the slave trade f The gentleman says it is
a blot on the escutcheon of Georgia? The question
resolves itself to this: Will Senators take the opin
ion of these gentlemen, in preference to those of
the patriots who framed our Ccnstitutiou? I hope,
sir, the bill wifi not pass.
Mr Slaughter, of Dougherty, would give Ilia rea
sons for voting for t lie bill. Every Senator knows
that the Constitution does not prohibit the slave
trade; it cannot p-event their importation; it has
no jurisdiction. How oould Georgia prevent their
landing? Have wo a navy? (,(ingress has the
power io enact laws upun this subject. Tho Con
slitution of tho United States gives Congress the
control of commerce. Congress has deolared this
traffic piracy. (for fathera saw that they had vest
ed such power, but they expressly declared that it.
should not be exerted before 1808, How can the
repeal of this clause affect the slave trace ? There
is no power in Georgia lo try the crew of a captured
slaver. This ;s only an idle. Inoperative declaration
against the slave trade. It is conceded by all that
the same arguments need egaiiist the acquisition of
the slave, apply to the right to hold whatever may
br-ve been tho opinions of tbe men of 1790, expe
rience has shown, I bat slavery is tho proper sphere
for the negro; that it is best both for the while and
for the black. Bat, gentlemen say we denounce
our forefathers; thoy instance Washington and Jef
ferson; these groit and good men had very en-
larged, but very incorrect viows ia regard to the
right's and equal'ty of mankind. Since their day,
too, opinions have changed; aud I purpose to shew
that iu 1817 au Act was passed for disposing of Af
ricans wrongly brought into Georgia. (Mr. S. read
the Act.) This provides that they shall be sold by
the Executive as lie may deem best for the interest
of the State. Now, what would have been the best
policy in tho case of the capture and slaver, “ Echo?”
To have sold the negroes to humane masters or
sent them to a State of savage baroarism !
What has Liberia proved 7 Has it not demonstra
ted the fact, that the highest elevation in tho scale
of enlightenment the negro attains, is iu a ata’e of
slavery ? in being subservient to the white man ‘
Public opinion in regard to the Colonization .So
ciety has uudergone a change, and every man who
lias examined into this subject agrees upon this
point. This clause is inoperative ; no legislative
enactment ha3 carried it into etieot. It answers no
good, and does harm This very danse recognizes
them as slaves in Africa. It cannot be said this was
inserted as a matter cf policy. Our forefathers
never dreamed ot a competition between white and
bl- ck, free and slave labor, as some gentlemen al
lowed themselves to state the other day. That sort
of casuistry which once said it was a wrong system,
but right because it could not be avoided, is now
obsolete, observation apd experience demonstrate
the fact. Lank at Jamaica and Liberia. I > ies that,
not prove that the enslaving of this race was right ?
Though tho system miy liuve be-n commenced
from uvaripious motives, still, it has been the means
of carrying into effect one of ttje ail wise provisions
of Frovidence. Why keep this clause ? It is u
direct attack upon the slave trade, the oririu by
which we hold our property. I am in favor of re
pealing all laws which have been passed by ( en
gross on this subject. Thoy havo all failed in aa
complishing the ends for which they were intended.
Mr. Spalding, The gentleman lias argued thiß
question like a lawyer. He harps upon a decision
of the Supreme Court, and his own construction of
this clause ; it has no doubt convinced him, but has
failed to convince me. The principal error iu this
bill is that it tends to the repeal of a clause, which,
if repealed, would throw our coasts open to the in
troduction cl slaves by a y stray vessel. Gentle
men deny us the right to argue this questioned* im
portation. The Constitution has prohibited this
importation, and J hope Senators will roiled well
before voting upon a subject of such importance.
Mr. Billups. After so convincing an argument as
that of the gentleman from Di treherty, there is but
little left for us to say. There is no man on this
floor, or in the State es Georgia, who feels a deeper
reverence for tboeo nobie patriots of “’76” than I
do, and tar, far distant be the day when I would
wish to say aught against their memory. 1 do not
say that this clause was a blot when it was inserted,
but to allow it to remain now, woo,ld ’os a hkt. The
gentleman from Dougherty has said that opinions
have undergone a eliange . this needs no argument.
Look overtue Constitution of Georgia and of the
United States On every page you will find altera
tioDS and amendments. Hence, striking out this
clause could be no reflection on the framers of our
constitution. It is, as it now s’ands, a nullity, for
want of Legislative enactments to carry it into ef
fect. Whereisthe power in Georgia to try off -nd
ers, or a punishment prescribed ! Does this clauii
prevent their introduction here ? I ( the lws of the
U ited States we’re repealed, wou.d this law pre
yentthfir hieing bought? The gentleman from
Mclntosh spoke of motives in the introducer of the
bili. I know nothing >f them. But as a Senator, a
Georgian, and a Southerner. I shall vote for the btl 1 .
Has not Seward, of New-York, said that, because of
the Dred Scott decision tbe Supreme Court should
be abolished 7 IJeoauee, under this decision our
rights are maintained, they declare the Court shall
be abolished ; with this staring us in tbe face, will
Georgians, by their action to-iiay, sustain the deci
sion 1 The insults and injuries wnieh have been
heaped upon us. are less tolerable than the greatest
evils wlnfch could result from a dissolution of the
Union. Let us show, by striking out this clause,
we are prepared to sustain tho decision ; because,
if it remains, we at least, impliedly, admit an evil,
and break the first link iu the chain to the posses
sion of our property. What a miserable plea, that
they have been put upon us by our fqtb-rs i Every
man now, who has investigated this matter, takes
the ground that slavery is morally, politically, and
religiously right. I, for one, am prepared to knrl
back upon the North tbe miserable slander of infe
riority Our men are as fine, aa healthy, as vigor
ous, intellectually and physi- illy, and our Sontnern
women the finest, the fairest, the dearest of God’s
creation. Let us rliow, by striking out this clause,
that we are united; place ourselves right, and pre
sent a bold front. Jlothi*, and come what will, a
bold front and united, we will not come out weak.
Mr. Thomas, of Gwinnett If eome bold aboli
tionist or Biack Republican had attempted tngralt
on the Constitution their principles, tne argument
of the gentlemen Would nave” been more to the
point. The gentleman who introduced this bill,
in accepting the amendment to-day, bae tluariy
shown his intention of re opening the stave trade
lam justified in taking the position that the bill
intends the opening of the 6tave trade. If they
can demonstrate that the public good requires the
introduction of slaves, I should be satisfied ‘the
gentleman from Dougherty contends that the Uni
ted States controls tnia thing, and not our Coiieti
tqtion. I beg to join issue with him. The Consti
tution of the United States presupposes the to
admit. If they can admit; they can also” prohibit.
I am noi prepared to sanction the opinion that the
Constitution of the United States controls this mat
ter The gentleman’s arguments go to show
-tright to reope.. the slave trade and notwith
standing the preamble, If tha till be intended to
have any effect it must be thir l . if we repeal Ibis
we Lave to law cf prohibition only the power of
tbe General Government to prohibit; whereas,
now, we have both. Repealing it wouid be vir
tually encouraging those who wish to engage in the
slave trade.
Ths hour for adjournment had arr.ved.
At 3 J J . M., Mr. T. resumed : The people of Geor
gia looked upon this queetion as settled Gentle
men say that the clause ie inoperative. If so. why
strike it out! Why destroy what is useless ?
There must be an intention, aud that intention is
tbe reopening of the stave traqe. Gentitnaen say
that that S> eve no statutory provisions which carry
into effect this clause of the Constitution. Does it
not give Congress tbe right, and was not that the
object of the clause 1 Tne law of 1808 rec,>gnizeß
the validity of this law. At that time there was lo
provision in tbe Covutiiution to carry Africans
back- The money, the proceed* of the sale ot ne
groes under the law of 1817, was to be paid into the
treasury of tbe S ate It may be said, why was it
not provided that they should be carried back to
Africa 1 The humanity of the legislators made
them enact this law. .
The only point is, is it expedient—is it riant
to introduce or encourage the slave trade? If it
was right to put this provison io the Constitution it
is right to keep it there. What was the motive
which actuated the men of 1799 f they no doubt
thought they were acting lor the good of the peo
n'e and in my mind, they were. At that time many
slaves were being brought into the country, and
they foretaw how many would be brought. Sup
pose this clause not to have been engrafted upon
the Constitution, and what would be the conse
quence ? Why, by this time there would probably
baVebeen twice a. a many here *s there are now. I
take the ground that our fathers considered that'we

Mr. Thomas lam always particular to try and

the value ot slaves is in proportion to the ttumuer
of slaves. Os course when you increase ihenum
ber you dtcrease the value, aud thus weaken the
institution Here, Mr I resident is tiie mem poiut.
If ’ tbe bill is intended to effect anything, this is
what it is iutmitied to do. The Senator from Mor
gan considered this clause as afl-oting the title to
our property. I think, on the contrary, that it is a
guaran’y, because the property would decrease iu
value it move should be brought in. Mr. T. read
ths ponijil.in relation to emanetpstiin. Ihe Word
ing proved the object of the framers had been the
protection of our property.

Mr Pickett, of Gilmer, made a iew remnika -n

on bills ol this nature have been niully reported,
and the aigmnents all mi thoroughlv pone over, and
liaviuK a long debate or yesterday ’a Senate for you
to day, I omit Ida remarks. Bsv. ra! amendmente
were offered by Mr Millyer, of Waitou, and agreed
to CpGO the passage ol the bill, Mr Miiiea K e, of
b’lehuiond, said, that his übjec in risii g w-s to ex
plain the reaeons he bad in voting upon this ques
non. At a previous session tie nad v.neu to ~..d
the aid of the State to this seobon, which th- gen
tleman had said was unable to develops itselt. if
them was any-prqjeot which demanded the aid of
the Stale, this was thn one moat deserving it. Bat
there was a question which loomed up. It was thai
of taxation. The gentleman had accepted all ‘the
amendments, in the eyes of oapit dints this would
sink (he project, but that in reality they amounted
to nothing. The gentleman from Wilkes, the other
night had truly Said it would taken more vigilant
set of r flic-ra thus Georgia ever saw, to hunt down
these stockholders Have gentlemen instruction.-,
•rom their constituents to put on them extraordinary
taxes t The proposition had been voted down, to
submit the State aid question to the people. If yon
pass these bills, giving vested rights to theee com
panfee, you cannot repeal it. Has this question
been sifiedl ttutil the people settled thi- qurfoioD,
he wua uuprepared to eot upon it, and h .lore thn
close of'the session he should-offer a Jt-solutioD,
putting the question before the people. He woiqd
wish to see, all ihe portions of Georgia now urnllt
ve'np and, fully developed, but he was compelled to
vote nay.
urr Vioketl rejoined In a few spicy remarks. Ho
was not here to skulk behind his constituents. Ha
represented them, and would take the responsibility
on himsel*, &.o.
