It lias long seemed to tiie, that there is one evil among us, which can be remedi ed by no laws, as it dejiends uj)on the free choice of every individuals ; an evil, therelbre, which must be left to work its ow n cure ; and that is, that, in proportion to our population, too many leave the employment of the agricultralibt, for o- iher employments. If this arises from itb being considered tluit tiie employment of the husbandman is not respectable, it is a very great mistalu-. E>ery thing is honorable which is useful and virtuous. This is an employment instituted by God himself ajid by him peculiarly owned and bicit. It is that on which every thing ebic deijend?. Wh.at can be mure pleas ing than to diroct the young and lender plant how to shoot, and to cherish its growth? \Vhat more humane than the care of those animals which contribute to the comi’ui-t and convenience of man ? 'I’rue, this employment is labui iuus ; but then labor brings health, and health is aoN^nEss. SENATE. ness. The cnnditioii of the farmer is a condition cf independence. IIis liith ^iv/. ou I V * .

Mr. Hayne, in reporting this bill, said that the committee to whom the subject had been referred, had bestowed on it the attention due toils importance j a.nd though they deeply regretted the delay nhich had taken place in submitting the bill to the consideration of the Senate, yet he could assure them this had arisen unavoidably, from the great difficulty of arranging the delail*! of a system so ex. tremely complicated, and of such im mense magnitude. The Committee were fully aware that it was noi j)ossible to di gest a plan which would be free from sii!)staiilial obj('clions, and it was alto gether hopeless to atiemi)'.. to conciliate in its favor universal approbation. The evils, however, resulting from the ijiof- licient and contradictory laws now in force in the several States on this subject, were so severely fell ;—such were the frauds lo which they gave rise, and so great tne injustice prarttsed under them, that the Conmiittee were strongly im- presssed with the belief that some eflec- tuul remedy ought, at least, to be attempt ed. The Committee, he said, had taken up the subject with a sincere desire effectu- ally to secure the just rights of creditors, and, at l!ie same lime, to protect the. hori"-:!. aiid unfortunate debtor, from op pression. 'rhese were the leading ob- jecis ol the whole bill. 'I'he Committee had not lell themselves authorized, in a subject of this nature, to indulge in specu lation, or to adopt theoretical views.— 'I'hey had taken as their guides the for mer Bankrupt Law of the United Slates^ and the bill concerning Bankruptcy, whir.h had passed the Senate in 1821, with the improvemenls and modifications that had either been suggested by the lorm« r experience of the country, or by the abh' men who had repeatedly, of lale years, brought the subject to public view. Tiie bill vvhich passed the Senate in 1821, was substanlially, the same as that which was re|)or ted lo the House of Represen tatives III 1820. Ii is well known that it had been revised and corrected by, and finally received the approbation of some uf the most profound lawyers and al)lest statesmen this country has ])roduced - Taking this bill as the'basis, the Com- niitle«“, Mr. II. said, had carefully com pared it with the ])rovisions of the old Bankrupt law. and the new British Act, and now submitted the result of their la bors to the iiiilulgenl consideration of the Senate. Mr. II. lorther staled, that it was a for- tunale circumslane.e, and ikjI a little re markable, that the liankrupt system which had been in operation in Kngland ever sinci- the lime ofHeiu y tlie 8, sliould have tcreived,during l!ie last jear, a full re\i‘ion—and that-a compli-ie system of ihuikruptcy, ioumled on an expoi ietico td tlirec hlindred ;.ear5, should have been lliere eslaiilislu'd in a single Act, provi*' ^ding lor the ri'peal ofno less than Iwenty- one staMites, and embraciiig within itself every ]»rovr.ioM which time arvd exper- H iii (' had ‘ hown lo I>e iie’cess^ary.

Having llitis explained l!ie courni; which the C'umtniltee had yur- ucd on this subjecl, Mr. II, said In- v.'oukl now only add, that they had deemed it advisable lo su!)niit to the (onsideralion of the Seuute, u In;- ther, i'l adopting a system of voluntary Bankruptcy chielly applicable to mercan tile men, whether il would not be j)ro- per to i)ro\idi; a system of voluntary /bankruptcy lor the rest of t!ie communi ty. 1 lie ( tJiiiinillee, lie said, were aware ol the dilliculiies insejiarable from thin (piestion—tliey know that the fate of for mer bills has d‘[)ended, and that the faU; ol tliis may depend, on the decision of the ()tieslion, wl.ether the Bankru])t svstem shall I)e ex-teiuled to pei sons, o- ihet- than tiadeis; nor are they un.ic- (juainled with tin; eonslitulloiial objec- tioiis wiiicii have been raised again a sucli an (Xteiision ol the syslem.
