North Carolina Standard

Indiana and Illinois severally and expressly instructed their Senators to insist on the positive prohibition of Slavery in the New Territories. They were partially obeyed in the letter, though not in the spirit of this requisition, and the present Legislature of both States have rescinded the instructions and expressly approved the acts done in contravention thereof!

The following is one of the new Indiana Resolves, preceded by a strong approval of the Adjustment measures of last summer:

"Sec. 4. That a joint resolution on the subject of Slavery, approved January 19, 1850, be, and the same is hereby repealed; that the said resolution did not express the sentiment of Indiana; that Indiana then was and now is in favor of the people in each State and Territory passing all laws for their own government consistent with the constitution of the United States."

This passed the House by a vote of 65 to 23: Ayes, 56 Opp, 9 Whig; Noes 25, Whig. 3 Opp.

The Senate was certain to concur. Illinois has passed similar resolutions by about 55 to 15—nearly a party vote.

All this grieves the Tribune, but it is just what the South had a right to expect. We are glad to find a better feeling springing up and acting in the free States—and no thanks to the New York Tribune.
