given to thie- Governoc to, bind the. States
by bond or contract, In any form which he
sI:ould consid'er most efTectual, for procur
ing the loan; ami to the agent to bind the
State by any arrangements he mnight-deemin
most expedient for procuring the mnoney.
What then was the form of the Bonds or
contracts which the Governor drew atnl'by
which the State is bound? Ile drew hands,
payable, not to- the lenders of the- money,
but to the- Bnnk of the Strte? of South
Carollur, at the Blhnking house of BAn
ING, lnorHEas & Co. in London, which
bonds the Bank, by the direction, of the
Governor, assigned to the lenders,. making
upon each of thcum. the following indorso
nwent.
" In pursuance and by autherily of an
Act of thLegislature of the State of South
Carolina, ratified on the first day of June,
1838--the President and Directors of the
funk of the State of South Carolina, with a
cnpitalof $3,100,000, (including the pres.
ent loan,) for value received, assign and
transfer the within Bond to , or
be:rrer, and hereby guarantee the punctual
payment of the principal and' interest olsaid
bond, as it becomes due at the place speci
fied within." (Signee)." C J. Colcock..
President of the Bank of the State of South
Carolina."
IHere then is the form by which State,
acting through- her agent the Governor,
bound herseM. and in that form the Bank is
put down as security for the payment ofthie
money as it becomes iue. and a portii of it
wilt not becone clue until 1870. Ifow can
the State release herswlf frtn the obligation,
which the contract, drawn in that form, hnt.
poses i
But the abovo is not all. Gaonot MN1:l)er,
rm, the agent selected by the B:uik na
comnisi ned by the Governor, and who,
was fully Ompowered to make all such ar
r.-ngemnents as in his jidgment citght be
deemed expedient for procudrrg the rnnrmr,
went to lurope, with the bondtc thus drawn
and thus g'ranteed. On arriving in London,
he isned a pamphlet, in which after stating 1
the objects of the Act, and the means which
the State had provided for the payment of
the money which she proposed to borrow,
he says: " But the luugisature has not on
ly provided the most abihnmt and available
mneoza for meeting its engagemnent.s, but a
fiscal agency, eminently adapted to ensure
the most perfect punctuality. The pay
inment of the irrterest and principal of this
loan is guaranteed by the Bank of the State
of South Carolina, an institution of as high
character as any in the United States. The
importance of the agency of such an institu.
tin, connected, as it is, with all the opera
tions of trade, an depending on the punc
tual discharge of its engagements, for that
public confidence upon which its prosperity
essentially depends, will be fully apprecia.
ted hy all wvco are practienlly acqiuainted
with the inseparableness of the connuection
between Blank credit anid Bank punuct ual ity."
Against a private individutal the force of
such evidence wvould bet overwhehning..--no
.hulgre, int a Court of Justice, woul listen to
an arguntent ngimst it; and because there
is nto Court of justice which can conmpell
thme State specifically to perforrn her con
traet, or award damages against her, fior ac
bireachi oft it, doe's it not fiollow that sh e is
bound, in a highor degree thtan a private ini.
dividual would be, to adhecrei to the moral ob
ligactiona which it inmposes ?
It is said, by3 sonie personts, that it is true
the Batik is pledged to the creditors; bitt that
it is only the Batik, as it existed in lIs,
that is, a Bank whoise chiarmer woiiuhl expr

wouhl he a tree-trade penpIe, an d those eli
gaged in nxintrfactures and c2nnCrce could
ixbve no interest in introducing California
into the Union. It was then, a debierate
aggression upon the ominority. And this
nggression was the inoe by which thiry
lhuweda their detvotii o to he Ui' i. Th'e
South had been excluded frorn all partici

by presening the Constitution tnisopaireii
in all its spirit, was the Union to be pre

Constitution, and thus had been the firmest
friends of the Union.
The rih to resist an ullnistititionat
act was urndoubied; and if resistance to an
tinco i tutional act, an act hlring no tourr

but rcstIing solely and exclusively upon

the purpose of oxcluding those States, from

propriety whicr would forbid' any act calco
Iated to make theA, corwention dependant
upon it; and last, but not least, in.the series
of measures which. this Government must
adopt and sanction in passing this bill is the
release of the authority of the United States
by the l'xecutive alone to a Government
thus Formed, and not presenting even suffi.
cient evidence of its having the assentrof a
majority of the people for whom it was do.
Migned. With a view of all these consider
ations the Government could never be
brought to admit a State presenting itselJ
under such circumstances if it wepenet for
the purpose of excluding the opl' of the
slaveholding States from all oorttinity ol
settling witr their property in that territory
Becmnnse to vote for a bill passe4 ender
such circumstnces would be to agree t. a
principle which may exclude forever here
after, as it does now, the States which wc
represent, from all enjoyment of the con
mon territory of the Union; a principle which
destroys the equal rights of their cons:itua
ents, 'the equnaity of their States in the con.
federcy', the equal dignity of those wherr
they represent as men and citians in the
eye of the law, and their equal t'ale to the
protectio of the Govcrnment and the Con.
sit inion.
Recame- *all the propojttions have beer
rejected which have been made to attairi
either a recognition of the rights of the
slavhfnttding Srates to a cmnmon enjoymnrl

Every effort haring failed which has beet

But, lastly we disearrt frnm this bIl, and

in sanctioning measars so contrary to form.
er precedent. to obv'iAs prAicy, to the spirit
and interest of the Corrtitution of the Uni.
tad Stmtes, for the purpose of excluding the
slavehokding States from the territory thus
to be erected into a State, this Government
in effect declare that the exclusion of sla.
very from the territory of the United States
is anr object so high and important as to jts.
tify a disregard not only of ilt the principles
of sound policy but also of the Constitution
itself. Against this conclusion we must
now and forever protest, as it is destructive
of the safety and liberties of those whose
rights have been committed to oar carm, tin
tal to the peace and equality of the States
which we represent, and must load, if per

Mr. H. in presenting. the proutest, said:
thaut those who presentedi it, were aware that
they had no right to demand it of the Sermte,~
hut they asked it as ai courtesy, to be permit
ted in that waty to express th'eir strong djs
approbation of the measure against whichi
they protest.
Mr. Davis, of Massachusetts, was oppos.
eud to thme protest heimg euntered upon the
Journ::l, beca use it wa~s contra.ry to all pre
cedent, and that as this priilego~ had never
been granted, it ought no toe be in this case.
If those opposed toa measure wvere allowed
to record thieir juastifications on the journal, i
like privilege should also be accorded to
those ini favor.
Mr. Foote wasi opposed to the protest.
lIt. had been ini.structcd by his legisiature te
tioppoe the admission of California, and lie
hadl done so; bunt,nafter the action of the Sen.

parliatmentary opposition, and submitL.2H
flt that the placing of tis paper on the re.
corids ofthe Senate, was fraught with eil
to the country, and lhe would therefore en
ter hits protest against the protest.
Mr. Shields was in favor of' granting this
courtesy to the Southern members. This
protest would go to the country and be pub.
lished in the newspapers and read, whether
placed upon the journal or not; and ho did]
not consider the inere placing of this paper
upon the journual, would be the cause of any
aidditional excitetment, than would be ccai.
sinned by the mere publication. There
were two rights he had always respected:
the right of petition and that of compinmt.

Mr. Wi nthrop was~ opposed to the pro
