Senator Duproo Of Kinds, having made
/ a motion TO lay Mr rs bin on ito iablo
IrepIiod to tha, gentleman he had never
sued any person, or feed a Iawyeri but a
good lawyer was good citizen, ana he
liked good lawyers


Mr ives was not opposed 10 the Law
yers, but the Courts lie loved good
lawyer and had feed many. And Mr..
Ives had much other nonsense 10 utter in
.supportof bis BILL


Judge Guion, the Senator from War.
ren, arose 10 rcply 10 the Senator from
Yaabusha.


"Mr President, | did believe Sir, that
the Senator from Ialabusha was In Jest,
in the in;roductior OF this bilI-I did not
suppose that any gentleman, who had
been elected to q scat upon this floor, coul3
have exhibited such utter ignorance Of
the constitution of his country, ana Of the
nature Of our Institutions, as to advocate
the passage Of 50 ridiculous and absurd a
measure, as that INTRODUCED by the Senator
from Yalabusha. But, sir, when hear
him declare himself as being in earnest,
and illustrate his position by examples
within his knowledge, | cannot restrain
sir, the expression of my astoni9hment at
tie exhibition Of such gross ignorance
feel ashamed, sir, that such PROPOSE
Iuon should be entertained seriously, for q
moment, by this grave Senate. How, sir,
will il sound abroad when it is known,
that this grave assembly dei5erated for
am hour upon tho plopriety Of passing
such q bill as this, that strikes at the igder-
.al constitution ITSELF and outrages rights
secured by that instrument? Sir, has the
gentleman read the constitution Of the
United States2 2and If no has, SIR, does
he understand it2--and is his ignorance
less profound Of the constitution Of his
own State, than it is Of that Of the Uniet
States? Does he not know that the oh
InoXious courts, which he has deuounccc
as annoyances and nuisanoes, are broagh
Into. being by the very constitution which
IeStabHshes our existance as confedera-
tied nation? lie tells you he knows no
law, by authority Of which they have ju-
lrsdicton in this country. Sir, is il pos
sible, that Senators can be so ignorant.
Ithatthey donot know that the federal
courts exist by virtue of the constitution
lof the United States, and the judiciary acts
of Congress passed nconformity thereto!
and that their principal jurisdiction -
! over suits between persons who reside m
other parts Of the Union, or foreigners,
and those who are citizens Of this State?
thai every nonresident Of this State,
has o right sacred by the constitution OF
1.-The United States, and the laws OF Con-
gress toinsitute in the fedora courts any
suits he may wish TO bring in them
against citizens Of this Slate2-and
that when any citizen Of this State ls su-
ed under such circumstances, that he has
no right to defend it? Is the gentleman
SO ignorant Of the constitution Of his own
State, as not 10 know that the right oil
persons sued, to appear by counseI IS a
privilege secured by that Instrument"


Mr.. Guion had much else TO say, bat we
have not room for all his remarks. He
thought Mr.. Ives ough; to be satisfied With
Itrampling underfoot the Constitution otthe
U. States, aud Of the Mississippi without
proposing q measure to usurp the powers
Of the Legislature He considered the
Legislature disgraced by such pointess
efforts at legislation, and was mortified,
as a Senator and as lawyer, at the ex-
hibnion Of Mr.. Ives.


Mr. Ives replied he thought the Sena-
tor from Warren had given him pretty
considerable raking down. He was lg-.
norant, he admitted; never opened law
book in his life, except the pamphlet acts
of the Legislature Had read the Com
stitolion of the United States once or twice,
he thought, but did NOT know whether he
understood them or not He was not asha
med Of his bill, though; he would stand
by that against eve9y body,


The House was occupied during the
day with the Dstricting Bill without do
ing anything definite.
