These did net appear to
meet the views of sundry politicians, tuc
extreme southern men, such as Tyler, Hun
ter and Mason from Virginia, siding with
the extreme republicans in condemning
them. In this emergency, Mr. Corwin's
amendment to the constitution was re con
sidered in the House on Friday last and
adopted by more than a two-thirds vote,
Mr. llale and most of the Pennsylvania
delegation voting tor it- It is as follows:
JOINT RESOLUTION TO AMEND THE CONSTITUTION
OF THE UNITED STATES.
Er it l'esolced, By the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States of
America, in Congress assembled, two thirds
of both Houses concurring, that the following
article be proposed to the Legislatures of the
several States as an amendment to the Con
stitution of the United States, which, when
ratified by three fourths of said Legislatures,
shall be valid to all intents and purposes as
part of the said Constitution, viz :
Article Xil. —" That no amendment shall
be made to the Constitution which will author
ize r give Congress power to abolish or in
terfere, within any State, with the domestic
institutions therein, intruding that of persons
held to labor or servitude by the laws of 6aid
State."
The result was greeted with tremendous
applause on both the Republican and Dem
ocratic sides and from the galleries.
The Senate continued in session on Sat
urday and Sunday and until daylight on
Monday morning, and finally audpipd the
joint resolution passed in the House by a
vote of yeas 24, uaj-s 12. It will now re
quire the action of the various Legislatures
of the States, though we believe a far bet
ter plan would be to submit the question
to the people directly. In this State we
believe the proposition would be supported
by nine-tenths of the entire vote.
