Mr. Holloway said he hud intended to give a silent vote on this question, nnd would have done s hail it not I liceii for certain misrepresentations e his previous j course on this question by the organ of the democratic par'v in this State. Tuat organ had assiciated him in spiiliment with the notorious Henry C. Wright, who was n traitor to his country.

He belie Vfd the people of Indiana would, before long, call for the repeal of the I3th aitiele, nnd be would vote for nn law Mini would add to the stringent provisions of that article. Mr. Davis thought that a penalty upon whites for em. pi lying negroes or mubut '-s would le sufficient to carj out the provisions of I he Constitution, without inflictng a penally upon negroes for coming into tbe State. He therefore hoped that that portion of the hill reported bv the committee would not be concurred in. Mr. Henton concurred with Mr. Davis. Mr. Sccrest llsoagbt a penalty such as provided in the report of the committee io prevent negroes from coding into the State was necessary to carry out tbe provisions of the Constitution that without some snch provision 'he Constitution in this respect would lie a dead letter. He believed the spirit of the Consti'nfion required the enactment of sm-n a law. This provision had been inserted in the bill bv the instructions of the Senate, and he hoped it would lie adopted. Mr. Davis replied, reiterating his arguments against impeding a fine upon the oegro.

! resolution thnt retains -.lie secret

Mr. Spann replied to Mr. Davis, and contended for

iuv nrcvssiiv 01 uuuciing a penalty upon negroes anu miilnttnes for coming into the Mate in violation of the Constitution. Mr. Milliken drew a contract between the doctrine of ' moral suasion as the Senator from Putnam would apply it to tu rum-selUr, and the doctrine of legal suasion. as , he wished to apply it to the poor negro who perhaps to norantlv eame into the State. Ho thought moral sua- ! sion would he much more uronorlv annlicd in iL. Iitr instance than the former. He also opposed the rciiuiried registration, because ncrroe hnvinnr p.rliliiMil.

He (relieved that any provisions or thi.kind would Iva a dead letter upon our statnte hooks, and he desired to see ns moderate measures adopted as wou'd be consistent with then doty under the Constitution.. Mr. Seerest replied, and explained his position in regard to moral suasion. He said his position on this subject had lieen misrepresented in the temperance convention, and that he did not give utterance to the senti ments there attributed to l im. II -ns ri.n..r,l Vote for Imof.t any proposition which that convention would recommend He nrnnril nl l.-noll, ,n fnvnr ,S posing a penalty as reporWl by the" commit'eo He i contended that the interests of both rnees required that . they should be separated, at.il the people of the State re : quired that this Legislature should pass laws to prevent Negroes from coming here. He thought the bill was the most perfect proposition which could be prepared ,i I" "I fr ,,,p ncirtn f t,,e lbt. Mr. Davis tbonght the penalty proposed by the committee, instead of earrving out the provisions of tbe constitution, was a violation of that instrument. It was a violation of the constitution of the United States to pass laws putting a penalty upon Ncgrites for corning into the Stat?. He thoiioht the Convention cletirlv intended to put a penalty upon Whites for employing Negroes, and not iiprin Negroes for coming here. Mr. Dougherty thought no Senator could be more determined to carry out the Constitution than limself. but he thought this bill was rr,,ins farther llinn was necessary. In 181 sad 149 he was in the House of Representatives, und t!:oiifli the Wilmnt Proviso and kindred measures were then so popular, his vote would uniformly be foimd against them. He thought, then I lint we were going to an extreme in that matter, and he feared that we were now in danger of going to the other extreme. He wns willing to go nil proper lengths to carry out this provision t;f the constitution. He believed it to be correct policy to prevent nil Negroes and Mulattoes : from coming Into I he State. But we should not go so j far as to injure ourselves. Under the operations of this law, the jails in the river counties would soon be filled . with Negroes, and the people of those counties be ! obliged 'o feed them for thirty days, or perhaps loprjor. He thought if was not good pulley la impose this binden upon the people of the State. He wished to rec milder measures adopted thsn proposed by the committc e. If mild measures were found nfter a few years' trial to be insufficient, thev e u!d then be amended. But be hoped that il we erred, it would he on the side of humanity. lll.iyiinti.iii s iiili: n;ii"iii. i niiirinn u mm im: inn luo ; . . i .i .i . .i . l. r.i posed bv the committee, ani the thirteenth artolc ol thi 1 - - , r , r r i i i .. ; constitution, were violations ol Ihe laws of God and hu Mr. Dunn, at s-mc length, contended that the bill proI mani'v that the bill was an intolerable system of op pression, and was calculated to take the brend from the mouth of the Negro, and was drying up the streams of light and life to him.

Art. 4, and 23.1 See. of Art. 1st., 'or the Constitution. And independent of the corstitntiotial question it is deemed inexpedient to ps a general law authorizing counties to borrow money for any putposc nt a high or any rate of interest, as ineon- istcnt with the gen ral policy of the State.
