to the rights of citizenship. .
' M Smllie moved a reference of
'the nstitioato a. select committee."
,M. Davis observed that this dc
scription of persons had of late become
eWremHy troubhsome to- the house.
. He was tired of their never ending
pcmio-is He had thought, that dur
ing the last session they had obtaini:d
what they wanted. As ha wa3 per
6aded their admission to citizenship,
was now as easy as it. ought to be he
hvi l the hovise would turn a deaf
0 1? to theirrcquCS's, -aml ir. this way
protect themselves from being further
. doubled. lie was therefore opposed
to referring the petition J and the mtre
an, as it was impossible lrom Iheprts
o'other busines), and the late-period
ot tno session, to pay it any eueciuai
tttenrtou.
Mr. Smilie did not kmw vhether
there would be thne -conclusively ' to
alien J to the petition presented ; but
he considered it as of sunicieiitjmpor-
t nice to r'ufer it to a select comr.ijtteci
He believed this wis only the beg'm
ting of tnanypctitions that woiiM ho
presented fron, the states o; Vein-

Mr. (irisvrold called for the reading
of the first part of the petition, wYtch,
