Mr. Kilgore was In fovor of referring to a
committee, because he did not believe, that a provision more outrageous than the one already reported, could be brought forward; and as there appeared to be one advocate ofthe odious fugitive slave law on this fl ior, he wonld also give his opinion. He was not in favor of nullification ; bnt, so help him God, he would take the greatest pleasure in giving up his property, under that law, before he would be compelled to become a slave catcher, under its provisions. The
question of prohibiting negroes from coming to the State was not agitated amongst his constituents; but the question of allowing negroes the right of suffrage was agitated. Mr. Newman made a Constitutional argument, and took the ground, that, under the Constitution of the Uuited States, negroes were citixens, and consequently, prohibitory laws could uot be enacted. He said, as a measure of policy and justice, we should provide means or sending the negro back to Africa, or making some other provision, before we should think of prohibitory laws; and, in conclusion, he said, that, instead of prohibitory laws, if a measure were brought forward, making an annual appropriation of $50,000 for transporting the black population to Africa, he would take the responsibility of yoting for it. Mr. Tagoe was opposed lo referring the subject to a committee, as he believed time enough had already been occupied. If amendments wera neoeaiary, they soclJ as well b msd In
