Report and resolution in relation to the Southern and West-
ern Boundary of this Slate.

The special committee to whom was referred so much of
the lateExecutive Message, as relates to the southern and
western boundaries of this State, have given to the subject

propriety of reviewing, in any manner at this time, the

or change in the course deliberately determined upon by the

preserve, if possibly within the reach of any means com-
patible with the honor and just rights of Maryland, that
harmony and good understanding heretofore so long arid so
happily existing between the two States, your committee
