Legislature of Virginia, in collecting together
this convention. • ,
The reason why I ask my friend from'Phila
delphia to withdraw these resolutions is, that
the very vote 13y which we won.* refuse to pro
ceed to their oonsideration Alight be tortured
and perverted in our own State, and consequent
ly misunderstood in other State's, thus prejudi
cing this holy cause T 7ior holy,i,t,wlll if.Vir
ginin, is sincere, as ie.
Mr. RANDALL. In response to the appeal
of the gentleman frorn'Erie, (Mr. Batt,) and in
accordance with , what .seems to be the feeling
of the House, I move that we further consider
ation of the resolutions be postponed for the
present.
The motion was agreed to.

REASONS ron VOTING
Mr. ABBOTT (when his name was called.)
While I shall vote' for this resolution, I must
say that I do not believe that our Representa
tives in Congress need anysucli resolution from
us to like'them to action on this question. I
believe that they are doing all that is possible
to forward the interests of Pennsylvania on this
subject. As a simple expression of sentiment
on the part of the Legislature, I have no objec
tion to the resolution, but I do not feel that its
introduction was necessary. I vote aye.

VMONAL EXPLAN4TION
Mr.iRMPSTRONG. I rise to a question of
privilege. My remarks made a few days ago,
as they appear in the Legislative Record, are in
one part incorrectly rendered—the error result
ing, as I have reason to know, from a mistake
in printing, On page 166 I am made to say
"Virgin* Maryland Scutheru States
have not as much of courage, as much of un
flinching determination, as the North." What
I really said, as tho context implies was :
"Virginia, Maryland and the Southern States
Am as much of courage," etc.. I make this
correction in order to prevent any possible mis
apprehension.

Xr. BUTLER, (Carbon) moved that the
House suspend the rules and proceed to con
sider the last named bill.
The motion was agreed to, and the bill was
read.
Mr. GORDON'. Mr SPEAKER, this bill seems
to involve a very important amendment of our
liiws relative to executions. it is sprung upon
this House very suddenly indeed. I suppose it
has not gone to a committee at all.
The Sf;F. A KRR. It was reported from the com
mittee this morning
Mr. GORDON. ° May I ask what committee ?
The SPEARER. The Judiciary (local.)
Mr. GORDON. It certainly , never has been
before. the Commietee on the Judiciary general.
It is, however, a general blll,.and I suppose was
placed in the hands of the local` Judiciary un
der a misapprehension or mistake, or probably,
for aught I know, by request. But certainly a
bill of this kind; 'of such general importance,
and which is evidently manufactured to suit a
particular case, should not be suffered to pass
with Out an examination. It affects,as I under
stand, a radical change of our laws with respect
to the return of writs. These writs have here
tofore been amended only by the order and un
der the direction of - the Court after application.
to the Court for that purpose, and after a fair
hearing of the parties concerned in the ease.
As I understand this bill, it allows the Sheriff,
Jll his own motion, to amend those writs at any
time.
Now, sir, rcertainly will not agree,so far as I
am concerned, to pass this bill until we have
it printed, and have a fair examination of it.
We ought not to change the well established
laws of this Commonwealth in so summary a
manner. Such changes may injuriously affect
very important rights. Our rules with respect
to executions ate well established and well un
derstood by the Bar arid the Couits. The com
plaint against the Legislature generally is that
they are entirely too hasty in changing old ju
dicial landmarks, which are well understood, and
putting upon our statute books, year by year,
something new, which we do not understand,
and which has to be explained by the Supreme
Court in a long train of decisions.
Now, "I apprehend that a bill of such general
importance to all citizens of this .Commonwealth,
will not be passed upon by the House without
a careful consideration—without at least having
it first printed and put upon our files, so that
we may examine it. I think that precedents
of this kind are all wrong, and the attempt to
spring a bill like this through the House so
auddenly, is highly improper. Of course Ido
not intend to impute any evil motives to any
person, but I simply speak in a general way,
and declare that we must have a chance to ex
amine bills of this kind with that care which
their nature demands.
Mr. BUTLER, (Carbon.) I .will simply re
mark that this bill was carefully considered by
tile "judiciary' (local) Committee, and was re
ported with an affirmative recommendation ; but
I have no objection to the postponement of the
further consideraoldion of, the bill. I make a
motion to that effect.
The motion was agreed to.
Mr. HOOD, (Judiciary, loc.1,) as committed,
an Act to extend the provisions of an Act re
lating to the letting of the repairing of the
public roads in certain , townships of Centre
county.
Also, (same,) as committed, an Act authori
zing the Methodist Episcopal Church of War
ren, to convey certain real estate.
Also, (same,) with . a negative recommenda
tion, an Act relating to Justices of the Peace
in the county of Northampton.
Mr. M'GONIGAL, (Roads, Bridget, and Ca
nals) as committed, an Act appointing com
missioners to lay out a State road in the coun
ties of Al'Kean and Elk.

Mr. BURNS moved that.the House proce.ed to
consider Senate bill No. 84, entitled "a further
supplement to the Act relating to the building
of certain bridges over the Allegheny and Mo
nongahela river, opposite Pittsburg."
The motion was agreed to, and the said bill
was taken up and passed finally.
Mr. HILL moved that the House proceed to
consider House bill No. 32, entitled "An - Act
to incorporate the Hatborough Monument As
sociation.' ' - • •
The motion:was agreed to, and the bill was
read.
Mr. HILL moved to amend the second sec-
tion by inserting in the first blank the word
"five," and in the second blank the words,
"first Monday of November."
The amendmenth were agreed to.
Mr. HILL. I move further to amend by ad
ding two additional sections. They were in the
original bill, but have been struck out by the
Committee They are for the purpose,of ex
empting the company from taxation on their
property, and from the enrollment tax. •
The additional sections were read by the
Clerk.
• Mr. HUHN. On the part of the Committee
on Corporations, who reported this bill as
amended, striking out those two sections, I
would say that the Committee were unanimous
ly of the opinion that no bill should pass this
House, which exempted from the enrollment
tax parties wishing an Act of incorporatiou.
As to the other provision, there was not the
same unanimity. But the Comndttee . believed
that the exemption embraced in these two sec
tions would be a bad precedent. •
Mr. HILL. For the information of the gentle
man from Schuylkill, (Mr. Hoax,) and of the
House, I may state that an Act of which this is
almost a fac simik was passed last session, eA
empting the . Wyoming Monument Associatea
from the enrollment tax. T may also state
that the association which this bill proposes to
incorporate is comprised of a number of citi
zens who live in the neighborhood of the place
where this moniunent is to be erected, and who
have taken part in the association from disin
terested and patriotic feelings. • A number of
ladies, also, have been instrumental in the en
terprise, Some .six or seven hundred dollars
have been raised. The lot upon the battle
ground upon which the monument is to he
erected has been given to the association by the
proprietor. There will be no en:whin:rents what
ever arising from the enterprise; it is altogether
a patriotic work ; and it is certainly highly
proper to exempt the association from all tax
ation.
The amendment was then agreed to ; and
the bill passed fmally.
Mr. - DUNCAN moved that the House proceed
to the consideration of Senate bill No. 25, en
titled a supplement to 'the Act relative to bil
Hard saloons, bowling rooms and ten-phi alleys

RESOLUTIONS OF A. UNION ISICETING 43 BRAVER
Mr. WILSON, on leave given, presented the
resolutions offered by Hon. DAVID Amovir, at a
large and enthusiastic Union meeting held at
Beaver, January 18, 1861. Ur. Wilson stated
that he heartily endorsed the resolutions, and
moved that they be read.
The motion was agreed to, and the resolu
tions were read as follows:
Resolved, That at a time, when our National
Union is threatened with dissolution, and its
el:lnstitution openly violated in the South by
designing men, and en infuriated populace, it
is the duty of all who love their country and.
its institutions, to unite the endeavors for their
preservation, and to frown upon attempts at
disorganization, and sympathy with treason.
Resolved,' That the Government of the United
States proceeded directly pm 4he people in
their primary capacity, an isnot a mere con
federacy of States; but in the powers commit
ted to it represents the Supreme Court of the
'United States, sanctioned by the usage of State
and National Governments. and the people,
and was emphatically recognized in 1833, by
the almost unanimous voice of the whole coun
try, by Congress and President Jackson.
Resolved, that secession is revolution—there
can be no actual secession except it be main
tained by force, and peaceable secession is there
fore a delusion.
Resolved, That it is the duty of the general
govertment, firmly to maintain the powers
granted to it in the Constitution, exercising due
moderation in the spirit of kindness, and ac
cording to the circumstances. That.these pow
ers are adequate to self-maintenance, and Con
gress, in whom they are vested, may supply
existing defects in the laws to enable the Presi
dent to enforce them.
Resolved, That as to the power committed by
the people to the National,Government it is
sovereign, and that no State, or the people of a
State, have the right to resume these powers,
delegated by the people of all the States, with
out the consent of all.
Resolved, That when a State undertakes to ex
ercise the powers forbidden to it by the Consti
tution, and exclusively vested in Congress, it
necessarily comes into collision with the Na
tional Government, and the simple question is,
whether the exercise of the lawful powers of
the National Government, shall give way to the
exercise of unconstitutional poweis unlawfullY
assumed by the States.
Resolved, That the Constitution of the United
States, having forbidden the several States to
enter into any treaties, alliance, or confedera
tions, grant letters of marque or reprisal, levy
duties on imports, exports or tonnage, keep
troops or ships of war in time of peace, enter
into compacts with other States, or with for
eign powers, or to engage in war, unlacia, when
actually invaded, or in.' imminent danger, an
attempt of any State to exerciser such powers is
clearly:contrary to the rights of sister States as
well as to the powers of the National Govern
ment., ,
Resolved, That secession, whereby a State un
dertakes to resume these high powers of sover
eignty, when enforced - by troops or vessels of
war, levied and maintained for the purpose, is
treason, and all engaged therein are traitors.. •
Resplvecl, That Congress under its powers to
lay duties on imports and eiports, and to re
gidate commerce with foreign nations, and
among the several States, has power to repeal
or suspend any law declaring a city or harbor
a-port, of entry, and to authorize the President
to declare by proclamation any port to be
closed or suspended.. Where, by reason of in
surrection, the'revenues cannot be collected. by
the ordinary civil means ; and toempower him
to use the Navy, to prevent the arrival or,
clearance of vessels in such port, until the ail-
lection'of the revenue be permitted to proceed
in due course of law ; and this , power extends
not only to the, high , seas, but to navigable wa
ters of the several States.
Resolved, That while we lament the unliappy
discord between the North and South, we can
not rbcognize any sufficient cause to justify re
volution and disruption of the Union, nor can
we,yield our donscienalous convictions to qu
rulous complaints or unjust'demands.
Resolved, That in such an issue, it is the duty
of all good men to rally to the side of the Na
tional Government, to discard all partizan feel
ing, and by no word or deed of syMPathy to
give countenance to treason, or support to re:,
hellion.
Resobad, That while , we are willing to accord
a respectable hearing of all complaints against
our laws, or cOnduct, as a =tither of the Union,
and to redress injuries arising front unconstitu
tional acts:; we believe Pennsylvania las been
faithful to her obligations to the Constitution,
and to her sister States.
Resblved, That as a community we revere the
Union, cherish its Constitution and love its
glorious flag ; and we are willing to follow its
stars and stripes 'whithersoever the path Way •of
patriotismoleads, and to support and deferid it
upon the .deld: of duty, so long as, life and
strength shall enable us to bear it aloft.
Mr. fiILITH, (13erks,) moved that the House
proceed to the consideratidn of House bill bro,
28. entitled "Au Act to lay out a State rated in
the counties ot Berks and Lebanon.!'
The motion was agreed to ;
And the said bill was taken up and
Passed ftnally. ' ' . • •
.ADJOIDZMENT MIL MONDAY
Mr. GORDON moved that when this House
adjourn it adjourn to meet at eleven o'clock
next Monday morning.
Mr. ACKER moved to amend ,by substituting
three o'clock next Monday afternoon.
Mr. CORDON "accepted the amendment as a
modification ; and
The question recurring on the motion as mo
dified,
Mr. ABBOTT. Z desire to say a word upon
this motion to adjourn over. It is my desire
that we should keep continually at work ; and
it was my expectation to remaid -here to-mor
row and transact the public business. I have
no disposition whatever to delay that-business
by adjournments. But certain action was taken
here yesterday, deferring subjects of a national
char . cter until the middle of next week ; and
as it is well known . that the regular local busi
ness of the louse is not in such a state as tode
mend our continuous attention, I see nothing
whatever in the way of adjournment. I regret
very much that.this interval has been allowed.
I think there are questions of vast importalke,
both State and National,tb.atehould be brought
before us. T regret the occasion for an adjourn
ment, which I think manifestly exists.
Mr. GORDON. We have, I believe, no re
gular business before us at all. We are taking
up bills out of order and passing them to fill up
time. Our bins, in some cases, ,are. not, even
printed, so that v,rp may examine them. ihink
it therefore proper that we should adjourn oc
e Isionally,if for nothing else than to allow those'
bills to be printed and placed upon our film--
Certainly we are not now pressed for time by
any business of legislation. Therefore I can
see no objeCtion to this adjournnient,
Oa the question,
