bENATE.
Tuksdat, Jan'y 28, 1873.
I he benate was called to order at 11
o clock, Lieutenant Gortrnor Brogden
in me cnair.
Ibe Journal ot yesterday was read
ana approved.
Message Received
rrom the House of Representatives
transmitting several bills, which -wer-
appropriately referred, and a resolution
anthorizing the General Assembly to
send for persons and papers m the mat
tor of the impeachment of Solicitor
Henry, which was, on motion of Mr
MerrimoB, laid on the table.
The hour having arrived for the Ppe
cial Order, which wat the consideration
of the Amnesty and Pardrtn Bill, a long
debate ensued, in which Mr Harris, of
Wake, replied to Mr Scott in defence of
the charges made by Senators against
bis own color and their connection with
the Union League. He caused to be
read the oath ot tha Invisible Empire,
and also the League oath. His epeech
was in defense of the orders of bis party
with a concluding exhortation to tha
opposition to rraain firm in thsir pur
pose to vote against the bill.
Mr Seymour was glad to tee the spirit
thai, bad been exhibited by the Conser
vative members on this floor since tne
discussion of this bill, and while be re
gretted to see the harmony disturbed
that has characterized the session of the
Senate, yet it becomes a necessity now.
He regarded the bilj, as it was, an insult
to the members of the Union Leagues,
Heroes of America, &c, in associating
tbem with the various Ku Klax organ i
ztions, .and sent an amendment to the
Clerk's desk proposing to strike out the
names above mentioned from the bill.
Mr Seymour proceeded at som$ length
in support of his amendment, in which
he charged sixteen octavo, volumes ot
crime on the Ku Ktux, &c, and said
that the Conservative party could pass
tuis bill, but t responsibility would
be on their shoulder. He did not wish
to be undcretood as making a charge on
uny member of the Senate, but against
the party.
More heavy shots irom tne Democrat-
ic t.ae, iavoiing uje dju, wovd me
question ot Dostponeraent came up.
which caused considerable discussion
and several votes, which failed.
Mr Ellis, of Catawba, offered the tol
lowing amendment;
. "That thi9 act shall not apply to those
who may be guilty ot murder by actual
participation, or by advocating the
same, unless such murder was commit
ted in retaliation for the crime of mur
der, rape or areoo."
Iu favoring his amendment, Mr Eliis
giid he was unwilling to vote on the
passage of the bill ia its present shape.
He had seriously considered it in all its
phases, and must say that it had caused
him deep concern. He reprtssnted the
largest democratic majority of any Sen
tar on the floor, and that constituency
he must and would respect. He would
not vote for pardon to the murderers 1
Honneycut and the Foscue family. He
hoped his amendment would pass, if so,
he would vote tor ihe bill.
Pending the vote on the amendment,
the Senate adjourned.

er Robinson called the House to order

House resolnon requesting North
Carolina Rprentatives in Congress to
se their infueoce to nave toe tax on
liquor snd the bonds of distillers and
tobacco dealers reduced, was taken up
and jo motion, laid on the table.
Fduso bill to pr t?ct tbe agricultural
inerests of tbe State, was read.
The substitute recommended bj the
tnAininT committe. Was read.
J A long debate ensued during which
Mr Brown, or Davidson, moved to in
definitely postpoee, which motion was
voted down, but the bill failed to pass
its second reading.
The resolution to remove the disabil
ities of WW Holdei, next came up.
Mr Houston aeed to indefinitely
postpone tbe resolution.
A long debate followed and many
speeches were made, among which was
Mr Morriein's. which is pgyiibed in
full in the We give i55& f
the concluding portion to show the an
imus ot the whole. He said :
There is no act of tbe 8tate of North
Carolina ot which her sons should feel
more proud than of the impeachment
oi liov. Holden i say it not as a parti
san, but as a citizen, a lover of the sa
crwi principles of magn eharta and
habeas corpus. It is time our people
ntve won glorious laurels on every field
where intellect, wisd- m and valor can
avail. Go. E. Badger and Naihanel
Macon could have 'Mtb honor worn the
statesman's trga in any age or land.-
The genius of Leonard Henderson and
Thomas Ruffio would have done credit
to tbe wooltack of England ; and in
the late civil-w ar our soldiers, lead hy
Brnnch, Pender, Pttigrew and my own
c untj's cbiva!ru8 Dodson Ramseur.
worked oot for themselves a name and
a'fame in history to bv honored 'a long
as virtue and courage have a place iu
he hearts ot men. But when the rep
'eentatives of the people assembled in
1370, and undaunted by threats of "fed
eral bayonets, determined to punish a
Governor who had trampled every prin
ciple of; Republican freedom under his
ieet, in my opinion, they added lustre
to every other page of our history, and
proved that they were not unworthy
tons and grandsons of tbe heroes of
1776.
Pass this resolution and you ttultily
their action completely, and you render
barren of truit one of the greatest vic
tories ever gained by popular rights
over the encroachments oi Executive
tyranny.
Mr Badgtr argued at length in favor
of the resolution, but there is no report
of his speech published.
After considerable debate, the ques
tion on Mr Houston's motion to indefi
nitely postpone, was put and carried in
the affiraintive by the following vote:
