But the people of this State have settled this ques: tion for themselves, and their rights of vast importance, disconnected with this subject, justified by apparent necessity, cannot be disregarded. The only part of California in . which slave labor could be employed profitaj bly, is in the propesed middle State, where the question is settled by popular sentiment, satisfactorily and forever. Slave labor cannot be employed with profit except where there is . constant use for it. the lands in the proposed new States produce j only the cereals, which mature in four mouths, land employ labor only at. the seed-time and in . the harvest. ithe existence of slavery in these States than arises from this condition of affairs. It is to . be found in the insecurity of tenure of this . sort of property, with Mexico on the south and a boundless wilderness on our eastern . borders. The Committee do not deem it re: , quisite to dilate further on this slavery issue. . The opponents of the peculiar institution in . this State have nothing to fear from division. ‘ . * . a + . . Fanatics from either end of the Union may de. . claim against the admission of new States into j the Confederacy, and talk about the equilibrium of political power between the North ‘and the South in Congress ; but that equili. briumis already destroyed, and the stability }of the Union depends now entirely upon the . good sense and patriotism of the great mass of . the American people. In this good sense and patriotism the Committee have an abiding . faith.” i — > << State Prison Bill. , The Governor has sent in to the House ‘an ably written veto message to the bill . . . i ~. 7 . .

But this is ‘provide suitable and secure prison ships or vessels, properly arranged for the health ,and security of the prisoners, and that he would keep them secure. That Gen. . Estell has not kept the prisoners secure is notorious—is the excuse mad» for buying him out.

But the people of this State have settled this ques: tion for themselves, and their rights of vast importance, disconnected with this subject, justified by apparent necessity, cannot be disregarded. The only part of California in . which slave labor could be employed profitaj bly, is in the propesed middle State, where the question is settled by popular sentiment, satisfactorily and forever. Slave labor cannot be employed with profit except where there is . constant use for it. the lands in the proposed new States produce j only the cereals, which mature in four mouths, land employ labor only at. the seed-time and in . the harvest. ithe existence of slavery in these States than arises from this condition of affairs. It is to . be found in the insecurity of tenure of this . sort of property, with Mexico on the south and a boundless wilderness on our eastern . borders.

But this is ‘provide suitable and secure prison ships or vessels, properly arranged for the health ,and security of the prisoners, and that he would keep them secure. That Gen. .
