IN TIM
Senator Osinnos, this evening, in the Senate,
epolte as Worm on this , important question : r, I
am requested,ta ,Pment a petition, signed by a
large number of merehanta of the city of Phila
delphia, who deldre an alteration of the re.
,venn O laws, ind Mk some protection for the la
/lei _of , chime of Pennsylvania and
other States et the Union. /n presenting this
petitill; I desire' to say that the impression hes
goteif,ihrotd thirmghout the State or Pennsylva
nia; that the ;bill which him passed the House of
Repremmtatives on this subject will pass in the Be.
mats: , The pod people of my State are told
that if *Ode not obtain an alteration of the tariff
ails year; it will bathe fault of the Republicans of
UM Bens* and probably on amount of a want of
good faith on nay part. - I desire to say I in
tend to pram this question, so that every
body here will ' have an opportunity of - show
log how he stands upon it. To Penneylvettlens
thia,le UN great question of the day. It ill that in
whfskall her interests,' as her people believe, ars
antra.: It is our nigger. fteughter.] In Penn-
Sylveada everybody proton& to be in favor of an
iteration of the tariff, SO Si SO give protietion to
iliber—ammterats and all ethers. The Democrats
Ire moll noisy on the subject than the other side.
'They say to the people you will have protection,
indloa will get it from the Democratic party in
Cosgrove. I repeat, I intend to bring the question
rip . , on every proper- ow:Won, so that before the
- 4licle of the melon dory thall have en opportunity
of aiming whit are for it and who are not. I think
Itleitpiedge every vote on this side. I think every
man in opposition to the Adminhdration will vote
for a bill something like that which has passed in
the House, and therefore if five, six, or seven
votes on the other side go with ns, we
shall, get what they so mash desire. I have
mid all -1 ears about saying en this subject
Wow; aim/ have Only to repeat that I ,do not
*end that the saimeseritlek were enacted in Penn
arlepuila In 1846 shall again he lusted in 1860. If
we are not to get that which we desire so much, we

this ineraisee tkr bounty is to Melte the officers and
troth of Amerlean ships to Increased efforts tor the
capture of Afrioan slavers,
The third section of this bill provides that the
bounty of $5O, now paid to any person for lodging

that any Afrioan has been imported in violation of
law, shall be increased to $100; and that it shall
be the duty of any district attormiy, to she and

it shall thither be the duty of the judge or oom
iiihnioner, on any probable cause, to commit to cale
tody the person in whose custody such_ Afrieso wee
found, for trial according to law. The oldest of
this section is to quicken the teal of persona en
trusted in the buppreisiop of the Mays traffic, by
inttreaeing the beauty piid for infonnation furnish..
ed to the Government °Melilla and to enlarge this
powers and .duties of the officers of the United
States. In view of the ntter failure to recapture
any of the hundreds of &ridges Imiperted in the
Wanderer, no* openly held as elates in violation
of law, some farther legislation is demanded.
The fourth section provides that all persons con
victed of participation, directly or indirectly, in
the slave trade, ei th er as officers or seamen on
board vessels engage d in the trade, or whet may
fit 'Cut, or be in a way interested in fitting out,
or sailing any Ship or the purpose of engaging in
that trade, shall be adjudged guilty of - the
crime of piracy and mutilated therefor by im

to increase the . penalties of fitting out' wea
sels for the slave trade by making neat fitting
out piracy, and to change the death penalty inc.
pored upon officers and crews engaged in the trade
to Imprisonment for life. It makes persons on the
land, who shall be interested in fitting out slavers,
pirates and felons as guilty of the ignominious
crime of slave trading as the crews of elevens filled
with the victims of the traffic+, and it bermes" the
chances of coati/Alen, now so difficult, by repeal
ing the death penalty. Such change comsat fall to
aid more effectually the execution of the laws.
The fifth section provides that arty ship upon the
seep, not a properly registered American - "hip,
which shall display the American flag as a badge of
its nationality, shall be guilty of Moen and the
owners, officers, and crew thereof, shall be pun.

rioan flag is the chosen banner of the audasious

flag he conceals his crimes against human na.
tore. We know,the civilised world knows,
that the flag of the United States is stained
with the pollutions of the African slave traffic,
that it la the shield of the slave pirate on every sea,
under cover of which he pursues his work of hu
man misery, despair, and death. The reporte made
to our Government by our minister' abroad, and
our naval officers furnish the amplest evi
dence that the American flag is made to
ooverth is polluted commerce in flesh and blood..
The . sixth reaction requires the master of
every ship, before sailing for any port on the coast
of Arrice, to notify the attorney of the Vetted
States for that district; and it requires the at
torney, upon receiving each notice , to examine the
vessel,. to ascertain whether she is designed to be
engaged in The African slave trade, and to con
tinue each examination until her actual departure;
and every ship departing, or attempting to depart,
in 'deletion of this act, shall be forfeited. This
provision gives ample power to, and makes it the
duty of the district attorneys of the United States
to institute the most searching investigations into
the character of all vessels sailing for the coast of
Africa. A faithful execution of this section of the
bill would make it most difficult to fit out these
slavers in American ports.
The seventh section of the bill provides that
whenever any American registered vessel shall be
sold to a citizen of the United States at any foreign
port or place in North or South America, the West
India Islands, the Cape de , Verde Islands, or near
the coast of Africa, the sale shall be utterly -void,

The Serrise that an able and faithful slave Qom
missioner, resident in Africa, can render to the
great work of extirpating the traiho in men must
be invaluable.
Mr. Wilson said in conclusion of hie speech (el
which the above is a mere hasty abstract) :
By , existing regulations, the naval offieers sent to
the African waters to aid in the supptession of the
Illegal elate trail°, are Zeioonlib le if the vessels
eaptatell file hot, by a ;wart of law, proved to be
slavers. The difficulties of conviction, unless slaves
are found on board, are well known. The oft re
peated failures to convict in such oases are welt
known to the naval officers, and cannot fail to re
press their seal• and thus testrain their action. By
tb eleventh section I propose; to release the natal
owners Van afsy responabtlity foe arresting any
vessel suspected of being engaged in the slave
teade, and thereby leave them free to exercise their
own Judgments in making arrests, nolnfineneed
by any apprehensions of legal prosecutions.
It is proposed, Mr. President, by the enactment
of this bill, to construct five steam eloope-of-war
for seeVieelnethe African waters, "to moist," in
the words of Daniel Webster, In ..scoarglog from
the Seas the worst pirates ethloh Aler Ideated
them t° to Mettle the natal officers from any legal
responsibilities for the capture of suspected slavers
not proved to be slavers by the courts ; to incite the
steal of Mitoses and crews, by increasing fourfold
the bounty for captures ; to send a aptemissioner to
Amos to bailie the schemes of the fieslefebbers on
land and sea; to make the fitting out of slavers,
like the sailing of them, piracy ; to facilitate the
oonvietion of the slave pirates of land and sea, by
changing the penalty from, death to imprisonment
l'al life; to make thin display at the -Ameele
can fag as a badge of nationality by a
pot legally registered American ship fe
lony, the penalty of which is itnprigonnient
of the crew and the forfeituse of the vessel; to
make the sale of Anierioon ships on the. coast of
Wogs illegal, and to require -the sellers and pur
chasers of .American vessels in any foreign pea—
k North dr &nth Amerioa, the West India Islands,
and the Cape do Verde Islands—make oath that i
such vessels are not Intended to be engaged in the,
slave trade; to forbid the abuse of consular sea- 1
letters, by vessels sold abroad, by requiring them to
retgrn to the United States for new Testators before
making voyages td the AfriBahooast; and to enlarge
the powers and increase the duties of the judicial
officers of the United States in the examination of
ships intended to sail for the ports of Africa, and
in the arrest and examination of .colored persona

Mr. Davis' Territorial resolutions were then taken
oip.
Mr. Tooling, of Georgia, said he did not origi
nally amour in the policy of the resolutions offered
by the Senator from Mississippi, because he thought
the principles therein contained were SO clear that
they did not require this assertion. Bet ss they
have been *Recited by persons having schemes
against the Govertutient; be felt it to be his ditty to
defend theta
.a'--In rents , to the assertion that they were an ab
straotion, he said they bad a terrible practioabill-
ty. They, are now shaking the each), political, and
moral systems, front centre to oirornferenee. It
is charaoteristio of our people, as announced by
Rucks, that they ardielpate events,
and snuff tyran'
by In the tainted breeze. Ile did not want a bad
principle strengthened by precedent. The funda
mental principles of our Government are assailed,
and it will not do to be crying pease, peace ; it is
AD abstraction.
The Charleston and Chicago Conventions attach
ed so much importance to the naturalized vote that
they asserted the power of the Government to pro
tect naturalized citizens everyweere—to go to war,
..if necessary, to do it ; but they could not protect
their own aft/tens on their own soil. Be held that
this protection to naturalised citizens could only be
afforded Wording to the principles of internation
al law, And not in aatiordance with our own maul-
Opal regulations. The only plane whore the right
to pleteet our eitteens was dleptoted was in the
Territories of the United btatee, where wo have
exclusive control.
What was the 'Whole Machinery of the Govetn
ment for, melees to protect these rights?. It was
Werth nothing unless it, did so. The reeointloni of
the Senator from Mississippi only looked to the pro
tection of conatitutiOnal rigida.

rat Government was invested with the supreme
control of the Territories. In 1804, Louisiana
was divided into two Territories, and the Governor
•of Indiana and judges wore authorized to make
`laws for the upper division. To talk of popular
sovereignty in regard to the people of Territories,
'vras to deprive language of its meaning. This law
of 1804, approved by Jefferson—wbom the Re
publicans claimed as their political father—prohi
bited the introduction of slaves except by persons
eitisens of the United States, who went in for the
Tarpon of settling. This law is in force to this
ay, except where it has been abrogated by State
naotment. It gave protection to slave property
in the Territories. when owned by citizens. Now,
the political platforms proposed to protect every
body, Dutch or Irish, everywhere, but could not
protein the citizens of our country in their own
Territories. The next acquisition was that of New
Mexico and California, and, by treaty, Congress
bound the Government to protect these Territories
In' the same way se it did Louisiana. No doctrine
of non-intervention could free this Government
from the obligation imposed by treaty stipulations,
and by the Constitution, to afford protection in
there acquisitions. If the people to them Terri
tortes, thus conquered, became sovereign by act of
organization, it was the same whether they eon
geared ns or we them ; in any event they *ere
sovereign. , This was an absurdity on its face.
They could deprive those who conquered them of
any benefit of the conquest. On that ground the
South had objected to the mode in which Cali
fornia was admitted. Me denied, however; that
the Id:talon of California into the Union was

thing could be done And finally, California, with a
population of 150,000 American freemen, came
asking admission into the Union es a t tate, and
her request wee granted. She claimed no
sovereignty.
Mr..Tomeas then referred at length to the ants
orgaling the Territorial Governments of New
Mexio and Utah, to show that squatter sovereign
ty was of recognised in them. Ile also examined
the Rinsas-Nebraska act to show that it was in

demand d the bond, and those who i cfosed to
abide lor the decision of the Court were felee
to their pledge!. The Deed Scott decision
compelled all Democrats to yield to its terms
in spite of the platforms of 1844 and of IBIS; in
spite of the Compromise measures of 1850; in spite
of the le elation of 1854, end the platform of 1856
Ile hooted at the idea that bee-sues Congress could
invest' the Territories with the power to protect
property they could destroy It. Congress, after
the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska sot - intervened
to set aside the oppressive acts of a pro-slavery
Legislature of 'Kansan He called on all parties to
respect the decision of the bnpreme Court, and
especially on the Democrats, who hod made a
bargain to do so.
Ile quoted from Douglas's speech of July 2d,
1856, in which he said that if the Constitution car•
rled slavery, into the Territorial, lot it go—no
power on earth could prevent it. Gen. Cass held
the same views, and there was no misunderstanding
at to the nit:ening of the access act, but there was
a differentia is to the effect of the bill growing out
of a different 'view as to the effect of the Coestitu
tion, which if was agreed to leave to the decision of
the Supreme court.
Mr. Toon, repeated that, Limo and again, he
had called on Mr. Douglas and his friends to stand
up to their bOrgain, and not to attempt to cheat
the South of its rights by indeoision—by unfriend
ly legisistion! He reviewed, at length, the Deed
Scott decision; to show that it sustained, to the
fullest extent,the right of slavery to protection in
the Territories. Be had no idea that Douglas'
prediction that the Union would bo dissolved if
this doctrine was enforced, would he fulfilled. lie
thought the Caton could stand a little more than
that. The Government (maid not be destroyed by
adhering to tke Constitution. Justice and truth
would preserve it. Mut if the dissolution of the
Union was to recall from this protection, then let
it come. Be would adhere to uo Government that
refused to grant him the protection it owed him.
