The Senator had proposed to institute an inquiry which I thought of very great importance. The proposition seemed to be in the interest of persons who had been driven from their homes by cruel and unjust treatment. After reciting the fact that large numbers of negroes were emigrating from the South. and especially from North Carolina into Indiana. his resolution says: Whereas it i currently alleged that they are induced to do so by the unjest and cruel conduct of their white fellowcitiens toward them in the South. The ground upon which he bases his proposed inquiry is the current allegation that these things are true. From facts which I have received during the last twelve months.
