m mobs or riotous assemblages, or when, after arrest, such fugitive was rescued by like violence or intimidation, and the owner thereby deprived of the same; and the acceptance of such payment shall preclude the owner from further claim to such fugitive. Congress shall provide by law for securing to the citizens of each State the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several States. Mr. MASON:--I suppose the proper disposition is to have it printed. Mr. CRITTENDEN:--There is nothing to print. Mr. GREEN:--And refer it to the Committee for the District of Columbia. I think that is about right. Mr. CRITTENDEN:--I move that it be referred to a select committee, with instructions to report to-morrow morning. Mr. MASON:--We ought certainly to have it printed. Mr. DOUGLAS:--It can be printed in the mean time. Mr. FESSENDEN:--We should have time to look at it. The VICE-PRESIDENT:--It is moved that the communication be printed and referred to a select committee, with instructions to report to-morrow morning. Mr. BIGLER:--I would be glad to make a suggestion to the Senator from Kentucky, that he name in addition an hour to-morrow at which the consideration of the report shall be in order, or else a single objection will throw it over to the next day. Mr. CRITTENDEN:--Well, to-morrow at twelve o'clock, I would say. ["One."] I move one o'clock. Mr. BIGLER:--With instructions to the committee to report to-morrow morning, and that the report be the special order at one o'clock? Mr. CRITTENDEN:--Yes, sir. The VICE-PRESIDENT:--Does the Senator indicate the number of the committee? Mr. GREEN:--Seventeen. Mr. DOUGLAS:--Five is enough. Mr. CRITTENDEN:--A committee of five; no more. Mr. COLLAMER:--I would suggest to gentlemen not only that it be made the order of the day for twelve o'clock to-morrow, but that it be adopted by three-fourths of the States the next day. [Laughter.] The VICE-PRESIDENT:--It is moved and seconded that the communication be printed and referred to a select committee of five members, to report to-morrow at one o'clock. Mr. HALE:--I ask for a division of the question. The VICE-PRESIDENT:--The first question will be on printing. The motion to print was agreed to. The VICE-PRESIDENT:--The next question is that the communication be referred to a select committee of five, with instructions to report to-morrow at one o'clock.
