This was a lick, directed at the laboring classes. If South Carolina can pay mqi o than North Carolina, let the laborers of th bitter Statu rcan the advantages thereof. . . Mr. Dortch said that if the consfitu- ! rf ?!r: 8.r " "T e1 '" couiu ijavo MH "" w that witliin a year or two iney wouiu sec the advatitage of tlie bill and have them selves included in its provisions. Mr. Spears said that ho was opposed to tli3 bill on principle, and did not wish it adopted for any section. Mr. Pavidson s.iid that jrpar after year j the west had responded to the people of the east in their cry of negro domination, aud pow, when natural causes were at work to rid them of that domination, they wished help to restrain them. IIe had never been able to see how people complaining of negro -rule could be opr posed to the exodus movement. Mr. Williamson, of Edgecombe, said that he represented a section that was pe- wcxt Thursday and m ide the special or culiarly interested in the passage of this derfbrj that day at 1:2 o'clock. Motion bill. Was surprised at tho position, of the Senator from Buncombe, Miv David sen. If he took any; interest iu the wel fare of the State, his remarks were very inappropriate. More than twelve thou sand able bodied men had left hu section the eastern part of North Carolina. Tii.it unless we wished to ruin the cotton growing section, wo were bound to use ourjutiueuce in keeping tlie negro there. The men engaged iu the business of per S'ladingoQ'theuegroes practiced the great est imposition up;n them. Would say iu j reply to the Senator from Buncombe, that the east had helped-- the west also. Would ask who had built tlie Western North Carolina Railroad? He did not like the exodus movement ; jt would'ruin eastern North Carolina. Mr. Spears It is admitted by all who favor the bill that its tendency is tjpre veut emigration, and if so, then its ten dency is to prevent the laborer from ex ercising his liberty to change his place of abode whenever he pleeses. Did not are what Georgia had done. The ques tion wsis what was right for North Caro ina f That this was nothing more thau a resolution to tax the poor man in favor of the rich, aud that at least one name should be recorded nxniust it. Mr. Respass said the discussion had roceeded further than he had expected ; that it was introduced by a man who had always shown a deep interest in the uf- 'airs of this State. He was disposed to respect auy resol.itiou introduced by him. The evil sought to be abated was great The agents would frequently come and cause" laborers to leave a given section in great numbers after the crops were pitch ed. It is Uie duty of the Legislature to protect the citizens of the State. He said the bill was not to prevent emigration, but to tax those parties miduly intiuun- ciug it ; tnat if the state did not come to the rescue of the cotton district it would cease to- pay taxes. The State taxed drummers, why not the turpentine agents? Mr. Outes said that the in borers were not only carried away, but were brought back in the winter time ; that they left, their wives and children behind them to betaken care of by the counties; that they staid away long enough to keep from paying their poll tax ; that the cast had already assisted the west and now called upon it for a ret mm. Mr. Bernard said that like all other Ibills introduced "by the Senator from Wayue, it was important to the interests of tho people. He did not think the bill was to prevent emigration from the State. The State cauuot pass laws upon that subject. The object of tho bill is to tax those meu Who are yearly making, for- tunes by procuring this emigration ; that it was a crying evil in the State. The men thus unduly iniltieuced to leave, left their wives aud children to be supported. The question of educatiou was involved as the bill was not only intended to help the cast, but the proceeds of the tax were to go to the school if North Carolina. o uiu-viwa uvt sir: we as emigration or the liberty of any clasa to go where their interest leads, but it strikes at the specu laUonin emigratioi. Mr. Spears thought that the tenor of the bill was to cripple the inducement to leave the State ; that tho spirit of the con stitution was violated in tlie county gov ernment law as it now stauds : that nhis bill had tho same tendency, the liberty' of locomotion leui guaranteed in the con stitntiou ; that Me ought not to admit that Xorth Carolina was uot willing to com pete with oilier Status iu paying our la-! borers.

The calendar of general orders being the regular order Logan asked unanimous consent to take up the bill to relive Gen Grant. Vest objected. j Logan then moved to lay i aside al prior orders to tak up the bill Bayard suggested the propriety of de ferring the consideration of the proposi tion in view of the probability of early action upon the general measure to sap ply what he regarded as a deficiency by providing pensions for our ex-l'iesidents He thought that a provision fo the single individual named could bo amiiiv covered in a general law. ! 1 s Logan said it was true the proposition was an exceptional one aud pioceedcd to show whv the bill should be passed. 1 1 : Hill, ot Georgia, said be wajs-not pre pared to vote on the proposition to-day aud would therefore vote against Logan's bill, but his iacliuation was to vote for the bill if he could do so consistent with his sense of duty to the public. He would not do so, however, for the reason given ! i by Logan iu its favor. Afteir stating what he characterized as three epochs iu Amer ican history, namely: The jsetlcmeut of the colonization establishment of the con stitutional government, ;;iu jluj revolu tion beginning in 1801, which latter bad accomplished gnat iisulis. jlill c;;id he regarded Gen. Giant as the mst leniarl: abh; man which tbe events of;! that revo lution had developed, and iu hiH judgment, the one man without uhom the revolution ii would not have been a success. This, he said, was nut a hasty or illj-considered remark. Whatever his merits or demerits, Gen. Graut would .take his pbice in histo ry as the great representative) man ofthe revolution of 18b'l, siuidy because, from the peculiar circumstances that surround ed him, he would be regarded as the one man on either side of the line without whom that revolution would not have been suppressed.. Whether jthis reasbu would prompt him (Hill) to Support Lo gan's bill or not,' he was not prepared to say. In speaking as lie did, be did not desire to eater to the opposite) side of the chamber, nor did bis remarks measure, i in the slightest degrt. alny:- opinion he might entertain of Gen. Giiuit personally. Vest said he bad objected to a consid eration of the bill on principle, and he was equally opposed to any legislation on the subject of the kind Kiigggested by Bavard. lie did not nroposo.to be drag ged to-day into any partisan discussion iu regard to the late war if he could avoid it. Gen. Grant would, Leyoiid question, pass into history as the gret general ol thai struggle, lie (Vest) entertained the greatest admiration for that General' CT military skill, aud disclaimed any inten tion to utter a word against him peisoti ally. The Southern people had in every way evidenced their admiration of Grant as a soldier and of the course; 'pursued by him at the close of the war when upon the field of Appomattox he handed back to Robert E. Lee his sword, nudj when, after ward, he went as an agent tu the South ern States aud reported lo tlsie President the undoubted loyalty aud patriotism of the Southern people, every Southern heart beat with gratitude to him. When a special office was created tor him with the rank of General, no Southern man in terposed a single objection, and when, at Cairo and other points, after visiting eve ry Southern State, Gen.! Grant attested that the people of the South jivere as loy al to the constitution and Hag as the peo ple of the North, Southern people again eviuced by loud acclaim, their gratitude for that testimony. But when Gen. Graut deliberately left the place provided for him by the representatives ofthe people, when he entered the arena of partisan pol itics, wheiJ he took the chances of political life, he (Vest), held that ho should stand the hazzard of the die. This, therefore, was no Democratic funeraL It belonged to the liepublicau side of tlie House to provide for their wounded ai d their dead in the late political conflicts. ; When the corpse. of Gen. Graut was dragged from that bloody arena in the city of Chicago, the funeral and obsequies belonged ihot Ut the Democratic side of the chamber. We have funerals enough of our own w" " a wound- (laughter) and we have oar bw: ed that yre are supposed to take care of. Test added that he was aware that for what he said to-day he would be followed, as he had been on a recent occasion, by the partisan press of the country with the cry of "Rebel,' Rebel," ''Unreconstructed Dem ocrat, and that worst of all stigmas, Bour bon.: Be-H so: Some time ago he had said, in regard to that distinguished person age, John Brown, that he thought he had been properly executed at Harper's Ferry, and immediately,, nmny of - the partizan press of the country undertook to defend every act of John Brown's and to stigmatize h'ra (Vest) as "disloyal to the government," though he had! only repeated the declara tion of the Republican" party made in- open convention in I860-, when tlwy stigmatized the same man as criminn-l No apprehen s'on ot such abuse would deter him from dis charging his duty on this occasion, lie had no hostility towards Gen. Grant,, but was opposed to-the bill because he thought there was something else for the representatives of -the people to do than to provide places for gentlemen, no matter how distinguished, who had taken the chances of political -life: Logan-ex pressed his regret that any Sen ator should attribute partisan motives to the Republican side had tried to do well by their own. The reirks of Logan were cut short by the expiration of the rooming hour, und the chair, Edmunds, announced as the regular order, the Indian land in severalty bill. Logan then moved to post pone tbe pending and prior orders iu order t proceedjwith the Grant retirement bill. The yeas and nays were demanded on- mo tion. Butler, before the vote was taken, remark ed that he did not desire to be understood by his vote as expressing any opinion upon the bill, either favorable or antagonistic, lie objected to being placed by Logsa iu the category of those, who were influenced .by' prejudice because they did net at -once consent to consider the matter. That he did not intend to Ik; dragged into voting for nr against the bill by insinuations from any quarter.
