trymen, inwhatever part of the Union their lot
may be cast; nor should we be likely to succeed
in obtaining it after public attention had been
attracted, as it has been most fully, to the sub-
ject. And pertinaciously to persist in a hopeless
and profitless attempt to‘ gain this advantage, if
there be any thing else to be gained or lost, is not
the‘ dictate of sound policy.
Intimately connected with this subject is the
great constitutional measure "of the Independant
‘Treasury. The bill has already passed the House
of_Representatives of the United States, and is
now before the Senate. The subject has been
so fully presented to the public mind, and the
public mind so clearly expressed in regard to it
that I shall not discuss its merits. I cannot ex-
press in too strong language the warmth of my
approbation of Lb is great measure, as iiecessary
torestore to eflicient operation a part of the con-
stitution which liadfalled into neglect, and been
trampled under foot, by which the public money
is to be placed into the public treasury, and kept
there until it is appropriated by law to the con-
stitutional purposes for which it was drawn from
the people-——:is necessary to exterminate that per-
hicious abuse, by which the whole contents of
the treasury are handed over to bazikiiig institu-

tions, to be loaned out for the profit o_f stock-
holders and the accommodation of borrowers-—as ,
necessary to give etiiciency to that most iinport- 3,
ant power of Congress to regulate and control an '
other wise llI1Cll9.':l{C.'l paper currency, by coining!
inoney, upholding its‘circulation, and fixing and!
iniintaining the true standard of value—'is neces- ,
sary or at least having a most powerful tendency:
to check and repress those disastrous expansions?
by which the commerce and currency, and busi-
criminate ruin. The subject is one of immense;
importance as affecting all contracts, all property 5
and all commerce with foreign nations. It is in;
this latter light only that I propose to speak of it‘
as highly necesary to those interests which in.
some measure, depend upon a tariffof duties. If
our revenue is principally levied upon foreign
imports--if, when an expansion begins, prices ad- .
vance arid a flood or foreign goods is likely to dcl- 5
uge the country, as all experience shows—-if the!
suddenly accumulating revenue is deposited in:
banks, to be loaned out by them to an excited,
community, it is quite obvious that the opc>r.itios'
df Government will tend to swell the expansion ‘
to a sttll greater height. If, on the other hand;
this accumulating revenue is paid into the tr,easu- )
ry principally or entirely in the prescious metals, _
as the demand for them will increase presiscly as‘
the expansion increases, it is obvious that here isj
a check, the power ofwhich is indefinite and can-E
not well be over estimated, to overcome and sup-'
press the approaching and threatened evil. _
But if the expansion is permitted to run on to}
the extent of forty or fifty per cent. beyond the’
.truc standard of value, the tariff ofduties as pro-
" ' 'tective of home interests, is substantially annihi-
lated. The foreigiier makes his articles at the ,
true standard of value, while we make the arti-‘
cle at the swollen prices of an expanded cui-rcnc._v
and though we sell at these swollen prices, yet
they are merely nominal to us, while the foreigner:
selling at the same swollen prices, makes them,
real to him by carryine; home the specie or its‘,
equivalent. A ll manufactures will concur in this ;
view, for they have been taught in the sahool of;
bitter experience.
It is therefore of inestimablc importance to,
manufacturers and to all tho.-so interests aifecteil y
by revenue legistation, to uphold this measure of}
Government, by which the incidental protection‘
ofthe tariff of duties is rendered efi’ectual—by
which the foreigner is compelled to pay the real
duties prescribed by law, as he does ifhe pays in
specie—by which he is forced to stand in our
market, first, with the amount of duties against
him, and then upon a footing of equality without
an expansion in his favor more than counter-
balancing the disadvantage of the duty.
Since the last session of the Legislature, a
measure has been consuinated, which will sig-
nalize the present period, and the Administration
under which it has been conducted to a success-
ful issue. The reception ofTexas into the Union
is a most extraordinary event in the history of na-
‘tions. It was not conquest. It was not an act
of ambitious aggrandisement It was the peace-
ful, voluntary, delibeiate and enlightened act of
the people of Texas and all her constituted au-
thorities in every form in which the national
will could be demonstrated on the one side, and
the assent of the country on the other. The peo-
ple of Texas had separated from Mexico, had de-
clared their independence, and maintained it for
the full space of our revolutionary war, their in-
dependence had been acknowledged by this
country and by the leading powers of Europe, &.
they and we, as independant nations, had the
right to do what has been done. It is not my ob-
ject to display the many advantages which we
derive from the reception of this large and fertile
country into the Uuion,—thc almost exclusive
production of the great cotton staple for the whole
world the opening ofa new market for our manu-
factures and agricultural productions, the enlarge-
ment of our commerce, the extension of the lim-
its of that free trade among those States, by
which they are hastening on to national wealth
and power with such incredible rapidity, the
probable improvement likely to grow out ofit, in
the condition of a large mass of human beings and
the countless other benefits that must flow from
it to this country. \Ve have no small degree of
assurance that we are right in this view, from the
extraordinary resistance ofi‘ere:l to the measure
by Great Britain and France. It is now a ineas-
ure that is past, and like the admission of Louis-
iana, Missouri, and Arkansas, cannot be assailed
or the constitutional power of Congress to adopt

\Ve are beginningto reap some of the first fruits
-of Annexation. The jostling positions which our '
army of occupation and the Mexican forces have '
occupied for some time past, has resulted, as ma- 2
ny supposed, in a collision. Monday's New 5
York papers bring us the intelligence that Gen,
Taylor's army, by in sudden advance of the Hex-
icans, has been cooped up in its quarters,its stores '
and ammunitions of war cut off, two coinpanioq
of cavalry either killed or captured, and itsselll
placed in a most precarious situation.
On the 23d ult. a Mexican came into Gen.‘
Taylor's camp and reported that ‘.3000 Mexi-_'
cans wvre crossing the Rio G1-nude, ‘.20 miles
above. Capt. Hardee Thornton, with 2 com-

tiller_\-, when they surrounded the Ainerican
Camp and cut off all r-.ornmunicntion with Point
Isabell. Gen. Taylor's works were to be
completed by 20th tilt. and fire opened upon
Mata moras. Gen. Taylor made requisition upon
Gov. of Texas for 2400 riflemen, and upon the
Governors of Louisiana, Mississippi and Ala-
bama for 8000 troops on the 2d May. In tho.
stir:-.et N. O. volunteers were actively respond-E
ing to Gov. IIenderson's call, and making prep-
arations for immediate departure .The Legisla-
ture of Louisiana appropriated 100,000 dollars
_for those vice. Gen. M. Hunt was organizing
Texan troops and was expected to march very
soon to the relief of Gen. Taylor whose situa-
tion was most critical, having only ten days’
provisions and cut offfrom all supplies.
At Point Isabel great fears were entertained ;
of a night attack,which from the present exposed
situation of that post could not be otherwise than
successful if conducted with energy. The post,
is defended by llliij. Munroe, with a detach-
ment of 80 artillerists. There is also at the
post about 200 armed wagonors and 50 la-
borers under the orders of the Quartermaster,
and some 100 citizens.

country. s_We have been patient and forbearing, Y plays upon its element, like a duck, Capt.A . D.
as towards a feeble Power. But she now threat-p; Peck, is her commander. Such an an-;mge_
ens to disturb the peaceful relations between the! ment, sucfigt boats‘ and such omcers‘ cannot but
two countries. Itrust theadministration, which
has displayed so much prudence, firmness, and
enei-gy,will be zealously upheld in these decisive
measures necessary to put an end speedily to the
unsatisfactory; position of afiiairs in t_hatquarter.
But_the great national question which attracts
the largest share of public attention, excites the:
deepest interest, and is likely to be fraught with 3
the most important consequences, isvthat betwee !
this country and Great Britain in regard to 0rc- L
‘gen. From the best consideration which I have;
been able to give to‘ this subject, I am entirely’,
convinced that the resent osition of our gov- '
ernment is impregmilale; thalt) no part of the ter-
ritory south of the parallel of 49, which is our
boundary east of the Rocky Mountains, ought
ever to have been, ought now to be, or ought ev- i
er to be hereafter a subject af negotiation. Great *
Britain cannot be permitted to hem us in on the
west, or interpose her encroachments between us
and the shores of the Pacific. We cannot nego-
tiate on that subject, We might as well negoti-
ate for the valley of the Mississippi. The vv ole
country is against it. Its unanimous voice, with-
out exception worthy of notice, would repudiate
the administration that should do it. In regard
to that part of the territory lying north of the
49th parallel,’ though our title is the best, yet
there are other great national considerations ap-
plicable to it, and it is a proper subject for ami-
cable adjustment. “ Let us demand nothing
which is not right, and submit to nothing which
is clearly wrong.” That eternal justice which
rules in the destiny of nations may be confided
in, against the unjust aggressions of any foreign
power. The finger of scorn will never fail to be
pointed at. the man who will not stand by his
country in such a struggle. The Government,
from its just anxiety for peace, in deference to its
Past action. has already gone to the extreme
Verge Of the limits of concession, and ourrht now

whatever there -is of patriotism inthe country.

E3°The Standard says that “a strong fight is
expected, in reference to the charter of the N.
York and Boston Railroad i. e. on the route east;
of New Haven.” Can any body tell what the
fate of the charter of the New Haven and New
York Road has been before the New York Le-

CONGRI-JSS.—-The proceedings of this body du-

The Senate was in session three days, and failing
of a quorum on the fourth, adjourned over to
Monday.
The House passed a bill imposing a duty of
20 per cent on Java Coffee, and another retro-
ceding Alexandria County, in the District, to
Virginia, and extending the right of suffrage to
every free, while male citizen.
E-3§“°The Post Ofiice Committee in t.hefHouse
will report in favor of making the same amount.
of postage payable on one fourth of an ounce as
is now payable on a half. They will also re-
port in fiivor of creating an additional rateof
postage, of fifteen cents for all distances over
