ING Legislature. On no former occa-
sion have we known more diligent at
tention to the business Of the two Houses.


o. The Evening Journal, in speaking
of the Resolutions adopted by the Sc
nate and Assembly, relative to Virginia
and South Carolina, holds forth in the
following strain.


The Virginia Controversy.


The Governor, as will be seen by a
Special Message which was communi-
Gated to the Legislature to day, very
properly asks to be excused from beco-
ming, as requested, the organ for COM
municating, to the Executive authorities
of Virginia and South Carolina, Resolu-
tons which, in his judgment, are as re-
pugnant to the first principles of civil Ii
berty as they are hostile to the spirit and
letter of the Observation-Disclosures
which are as degrading to a Sovereign
State as they are unworthy of the Repre-
sentatives of a Free People.


The Legislature of the State of New
York, by the adoption of these Resolu-
tions, has given its inglorious sanction to
Laws passed by Virginia and South Ca
rolina, authorising aggressions upon the
Commerce, and putting in peril the lib
erty of our citizens. This question now
goes down to the People. We are con-
tent to leave it with them. e
