This clause, it is' contended by some, was intended to exclude . Roman Catholics from civil appointments,,' while . others believe that it does not exclude that class of men. One thing is certain, from the commencement of the Gov ernment to, this day, it never has been brought to bear atrainst the.

"This, he thought; would be accomplished by striking: out the word Protestant, and in place thereof, in sert tne word ' hrutiun. lie believed that Ihe people would be generally satisfied with this alteration, but any further change would be going beyond what they expected, and would insure the rejection of all the Amendments. Some gentlemen consider this clause as a delect in the Constitution; nay. they say, a disgrace) but they cannot showjiwhr te Tnsgraceu any lnuiviuuai. let, oe- -i-,. , mr r"''T"A - cause they no not like its phraseology, ihey are willing to jeopard all our la bors in this Convention and for rears past in bringing it about, by st riking J oui'ine wnoie clause anu section. For himself, he was-not witling to give up practical zooil through fears of ideal eviti. If any evil exiMs. it will be remetlieil by the promised change, and thus far he was willing to go; but he was n it willing to hazard .jdl the Ainendiiictits, by expunging the whole section. Mr. OUTLAW hoped he should be permitted to make a few remarks. . The gentleman who had just taken his seat seemedioaddress this Conven tion, as if he were the Defender of the Faith of the Christian Religion) and that without his protecting arm, it would be trodden under foot." For his part, he considered this a labor of supererogation: The Christian Re ligion is the work of God, and is there fore H no danger of giving way. ; The argument brought forward by the gentleman from Rowan (Mr. FWherJ and others, that there is no difference between annexing qualifica tions for 'office, and declarations that men entertaining certain religious opinions shall not bp capable of hold ing oflice, is merw sophistry. For. in the one case, it is in the power of any tnan1jy1ndustry.and application to attain other (but in the other, you ren der it imposible for a conscientious man, who refuses to give up; his re ligious opinion, to enjoy the common right of others) (or yo require him eiihrr, to believe what his conscience abhors and condemns, or to become an hypocrite and deny his laith. Is tb yre, thenr no d i Bcrcnce bet weenrthe" two cases? L- Tit is said, this S2d section was in tended to restrain men of improper character from becoming officers of the Gaverqme&l t bodh and conscientious men? 7 There cer tainly is ulanjce, from the. different expositions which have been given of the section by men lesrned in the law. Even if the word Christian be sub stituted - for Ptvtttitmfir he-tloubtedi whether the danger would be rrmov ed for he said there was a numerous sect in some sections of this country railed Unitarian; tn whom a portion of the Calvlnists deny the right ; of bearing the Christian name. Might not there possibly be " an union formed of different sects for the purpose of persecuting their brethren who might differ in opinion from them in certain particulars? It is, for instance, the opinion of tome, that the Quakers hold religious ' principles incompatible with the freedom and safety of the Stare," as they restrain them from bear ing arms even ia time of war. What security have we, if this clause re mains, that this inoffensive sect may not hereafter become objects of per secution? ' lie thought we hsd none, and therefore moved to strike from the section, the words, "or who shall hold religious principles Incompatible with the freedom and Mtctr of the State," ' , This motion fctuig pat, vt ntgitir ed 37 votes to 39. .Governor BRANCH assured the gentleman from Buncombe that it would give him pleasure to travel in the same path with him in relation to this subject) but he could not . con scientiously do so. r It is true that this 3 2d Article has lata dormant hitherto) but. we have seen, from the excitement that has benroajlefl poait in different scc tions of ur : country, that it U not dead, but sleereth; and if we now enact it airesb.ibyrefosinj toTescind it, it may bereatter - rie op ia great strength. , . , - ' The gentlemen from Cumberland and Itowan eem,ipjtniBitjit.JisJiai He was of an entirely diffrent opin ion. .

He. with that gentleman, had gone for the most liberal amend ments to this section." We were in favor of complete religious toleration. We have been defeated. But because, z Htm c ,i, , tuii vuiiviiuus Aim ir. hall we refuse that which is in our power to get? If we cannot make Mom for the Jew, if he be thought worthy for oflice, let us not refuse the privilege Tor Christians of every de nomination. His friend from Halifax believes that the Article in its present form excludes the Catholics. So he himself once thought, but he had cha ngedhis.opinion. It- wou Id - be "well, however, to settle that opinion, by agreeing to the reortofthe Com mittee of the whole. The gentleman from Cumberland "Mr. 7'oomfr has said this question, in relation tn Catholics, is settled. Butsa'ul M r. C this Cntjonvby f. It is nolomrer a Question at rest The learned gentlemen from Halifax and Wake Judges Daniel 'and AVa welf hsd both given it as their opin- jnu that was-- meant to exclude the Catholics. Though the section there fore, might heretofore have been con sidered as a dead letter, it is now alive again, and must be treated as a living thing. He was willing, therefore, to take the. proposed - amendment to atrik e out- tlte-wnrd CatHoti6EiriA In sert the word Christian in its place. Mr. C. was surprized to hear gen tlemen sneak of throwing an Egi about the. Religion of the country. Does the lleligion ol our 8aVS." ask ed Mr. C.3 need any aid ofman to protect it? N) it stan'da on th broad basis of Eternal Truth on the Rock of Ages, ami needs from us fteieonly. Why should the . Protestants think ill ni me lyainoncs because tney diner from them in opinion? For when the Disciples of Jesus saw one casting out Devils in his name, they forbade him) but Jesus said, ' forbid him not, for he that is not against us is for us." A gain: when Peter asked our Saviour what should be done with this man?" John he replied, "if I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? Follow thou me." Mr. COLLINS said, having been engaged in attending to the business of a committee this morning, he did nt come into the Convention till late. He was surprised to hear the-gentleman from Halifax Gov. JirenchJ say, that because he could not obtain any a meg.lment to . the obnoxious section before the Convention, that would o pen the door of office to every worthy man. whatever might be ihis Religious opinions, he would not ote for ex punginglhe word Catholic, and insert ing in its place that of Christian. Mr, C. said that he had all along voted with the tentleman . from. Halifax. for lfirmo iifionl ft'di ' -nivto been? htthrto tf e- leateu, he would be willing to adopt the one now before the Convention; as it ould at all events put the question to rest, as to Cat holies and all other Christian. - -..... Mr. MOREHEAD said, he should have remained silent on this subject, had it not been for the severe censures cast upon all who were in favor of re taining this 32d section in the Con stitution.: .ilia feeling had been much excited, but .he. had-endeavored - to keep them down. He would, however, venture to make a few remarks on the subject, r -w V ' y ' : .. - BecsURe we are in favor f retaining in the Constitution something like a Test for oflice, we are charged with bigotrj and iUiberality. In every Constitution, said he, certain qualifi cations are made necessary for office. In the amendments proposed by this Convention to the Constitution, cer tain qualifications are provided for the members of both Houses, and why not place some guard against inroads on the Religion of our country?

He would t be boundblt; T f had bJW kalJtlut there were no auch beings in the roun try. He believed there were many such. He was therefore in favor of retaining th see two to- qtteto.

We need not the aid of any impassioned appeal to the Teelings ot the Southern people to put them on their guard against the insidious and ulterior attacks on their right. This is a question which each individual can settle for himself. We believe that Mr. Van Buren is wrong in making any appeal to part feeling. cate of the power of Congress to inter fere with the "Slave question." He seems to protest against "the proprie ty" of agitating the question otslavery in "the" District of Columbia, but he does not utter one word or publish one sentence in denial of the right or the power of Congress to control the entire subject. This single fact should be suflicient for the Sou thern St ate fC"No candidate, especially one who ha iii former, time, taken an active part oh the Missouri Question, should receive the suffrages and the cordial support of me south, unless, in liankantl explicit terms, he protests against the -l ight or me power ol Longresss to abolish Slavery in tho District of Columbia. But we do not confine our objections to the tone of Mr. Van Bui en's re marks in relation to the abolition of laery in the District of Columbia. He refers to the proceeding of the-AI-bany meeting, and authories the gen tleman to whom his letter is addressed, to saj that he concurs fully in the sen timents they advance. Now, however flattering the resolution adopted at that meeting may prove to Southern pride we cannot forget the fact that there is no recommendation of legisla tive action. On this subject the reso lutions are silent They recognise the rights of the South, profess to be indig. no remedy. The leaders of thu party, it seems, doubted "the proprie ty" of calling for legislative inlerfrr ence.
