Mr. Gordon moved that the series of
rcsolut* oo3 reported by the general com
mittee be taken up, which motion prevail
ed, and, after being read, the resolutions
were adopted as follows :
The committee to whom was referred,
the various propositions in regard to the
State of Texas, beg leave to report the
following resolutions:
Resolved, That the true boundaries of
the State of Texas are defined in tne trea
ty of May 14th, 1536, signed by the Pre
sident of Texas and the members of the
government thereof, on the one part, and
by the authorized representatives of the
government of Mexico, on the other part,
and setting forth the lines of demarkation
in the following words, to wit: ‘‘The
line shall commence at the entry of or
mouth of the Rio Grande, on the western
bank thereof, and shall pursue the same
bank up said river, to the point where the
river assumes the name of Rio Bravo del
Norle, from which point it shall proceed
on the western bank to the head-waters
or source of said liver, it being under
stood that the term of Rio Grande and
Rio Bravo del Norte apply to and desig
nate one and the same stream. From the
source of the said river, the princpal head
branch being taken to ascertain thttsource,
a due north line shall be run until it shall
intersect the boundary line established
and described in the treaty negotiated by
and between the government ofSpain and
the government of the United States of
the North; which line was subsequently
transferred to and adopted in the treaty of
limits made between the government of
Mexico and that of United States; and
from this point of intersection the line
shall be the same was made and establish
ed in and by the several treaties above
mentioned, to continue to the mouth or
outlet of the Sabine river, and from
thence to the Gulf of Mexico.” That
the said State of Texas asserted sover
eign authority over all territory compre
headed within the boundary set forth in
the foregoing resolution before the date of
the recognition of ber independence by
the government of the United States, and
before the date of her annexation to the
United States; and her claim to these
boundaries, was well known to the govern
ment of the United States, as evidenced
by a rnap distinctly setting them forth,
published for the use of our government,
at the lime of the annexation of Texas,
and extensively circulated by the members
of Congress and other public agents. —
That by the terms of the joint resolutions
for annexing Texas to the United Sta'es,
it was expressly provided that the gov
ernment of the United States should have
power to adjust all questions of boundary
which might arise with other governments;
that no such question of boundary has
b en adjusted with any other government,
so as to cont act or vary the boundaries of
Texas. That Mexico, by the treaty of
Gaudalupc Hidalgo, expressly relinquish
ed all claim to all territory comprehended
within the boundaries hertofure described;
whereby the claim of Texas became set
tled, and her jurisdiction and authority be
came complete. That the State of Texas
should not be hindered or disturbed by any
authority whatever, in the exercise of all
such sovereign and supreme power over
all tetri ory within her limits as may law
fully exercised by any other sovereign
State ot the confederacy over territory
within its ascertained limits.
2. Resolved, That all the territory with
in the State of Texas, being now slave
holding territory, it is of vital importance
to the Southern States, t hut no portion of it
should be transferred to the jurisdiction of
the Federal Government, without the
most explicit declaration, that the same
shall he slave territory in the hands of the
United States, as fully as it now is in the
hands of Texas.
Amendment of the 2d Resolution.
That no agreement between the United
States and Texas for a cession to tlie for
mer of a part of the terrritory of the lat
ter, should discharge the Government of
the United States from the obligations to
admit into the Union four new States to
he created in the territory of Texas, with
the institution of slavery, and provision
should be made in the article to preserve
said obligation.
3. Resolved, That it is the duty of the
whole South to oppose the attempts of the
Northern fanatics, to get possession of any
pait of the Territory rightfully belonging
to Texas, for the purpose of excluding
therefrom the people of the South, and
especially the Texans themselves.
4. Resolved, That while the position of
Texas in the very breach through which
this assault may be made on the Constitu
tional rights of the South,entitles her to the
assurance of cordial and resolute support
from every slaveholding State,these States
have a like right to expect that she will
not be so falso to herself and tegardlessof
their interest, as to accept any sum of mo
ney us a consideration for admitting an ene
my within her gates, and establishing there
a strong hold of abolition and a harbor for
fugitive slaves.
5. Resolved, That the right of the peo
ple of Texas to form, at the proper time,
with the consent of that State, four new
slaveholding States, in addition to said
of Texas, out of the Territory there
"l is clear and unquestionable, and cannot
be strengthened by any mere legislative
construction or guarantee.
1- Resolved, That the whole legislative
power of the United States Government
is derived from the Constitution and dele
gated to Congress, and cannot be increas
ed or diminished but by an amendment of
the Constitution.
Resolved, That tho acquisition of
territory by tho United States, whether
occupied or vacant, either by purchase,
conquest or treaty, adds nothing to the
legislative power of Congress, as granted
and limited in the Constitution.
_ 3- Resolved, That the adoption of a for
eign law' existing at the lime in territory
purchased, ceded, or granted, is the exer
cise of legislative power, and cannot bo
done unless the law is of such a character
as might rightfully be enacted by Congress
under the Constitution, without reference
to its pre-existence as a foreign law.
4. Resolved, "1 hat the alleged princi
ple of the law of Nations recognizing to
some extent, the perpetuity of foreign laws
in existence within a territory at the lime
of its acquisition by purchase, conquest or
treaty , cannot, under our Constitution and
form of government, go to the extent of
continuing in force, in such territory, any
law that could not be directly enacted by
Congress, by viitue of the powers of legis
lation delegated toil by the Constitution.
5. Resolved, That no power of doing
any act or thing by any of the Departments
of our Government, can be based upon
the principles of any foreign law, or of the
laws of nations, beyond what exists in such
Department under the Constitution of the
United States, without reference to such
foreign law or the laws of Nations.
6. Resolved, That slavery exists in the
United States independent of the Con
stitution. That it is recognized by the
Constitution in a threefold aspect, first as
property, second as a domestic relation of
service or labor under the law of a State,
and lastly as a basis of political power.
And viewed in any or all of these lights,
Congress has no power under the Consti
tution, to create or destroy it anywhere;
nor can such power be derived from for
eign laws, conquest, cession treaty or the
laws of nations, nor form any other source
but an amendment of the Constitution it
self.
Resolved, That the Constitution confers
no power upon Congress to regulate or
prohibit the sale and transfer of slaves be
tween the States.
Resolved, That the reception, or con
sideration by Congress of resolutions,
memorials or petitions, from the States in
which domestic slavery does not exist, or
from the the people of said States, in re
lation to the institution of slavery where it
dees exist, with a view of effecting its abo
lition, or impairing the rights of those inte
rested in it, to its peaceful and secure en
joyment, is a gross abuse and an entire
perversion of the right of petition as secur
ed by the federal cons' itution, and if per
sisted in must and will lead to the most
dangerous and lamentable consequences
—That the right of petition for a redress of
grievances provided for by theConstilution
was designed to enable the citizens of the
United States to manifest and make known
to Congress the evils under which they
were suffering, whether affecting them
personally, locally or generally, and to
cause such evils to he redressed by the
proper and competent authority; but was
never designed or intended as a means of
inflicting injury on others, or jeoparding
the peaceful and secure enjoyment of
their rights, whether existing under the
Constitution or under the sovereignty and
authority of the several States.
Resolutions of thanks to the Odd Fel
lows, to the Trustees of the Church, to the
Tennessee Delegation, the ladies of Nash

AGKICULTURAI. IMPORTUNITY.
We can hardly lake up a paper now-a-days,
devoted to agriculture in which we do not notice
the anxiety of gome men, aspiring to be the
grand patrons of that interest, for the interfer
ence in its behalf of thn Federal Government.
Os all the revolting shapes in which protective
mendicancy and toadyism could possibly shew
themselves, none can be so offensive to a manly
and independent spirit, as a whining, begging
husbandman. Heretofore, every art, by which
the stalwart self-reliance of this class of our peo
ple could be seduced into a state of vassalage to
the Government, has proved ineffective. The
manufacturing interest, that for many years past
has so painfully belittled and degraded the high
character that belongs to it, by its beg
ging importunity, could never inveigle the farm
ing and planting interests into its league. The
partial countenance given to protection by the
sugar interest, only proves how averse our tillers
of the soil have been to all this swindling charity
or “poor rates" system. It is very remarkable
that no one industrial pursuit ever begun in our
midst, thought it stood in any need of help in its
early infancy, or began to raise the cry to the
General Government, of help or we perish, untij
by experiment they had proved their success
was certain without help.
If wc remember rightly our protective tariff of
1790 did not reach an average of ten per cent.,
and yet in 1842, there was no chance of getting
along with less than forty-eight per cent. Just
so with our planting interests. Never in times
past, in seasons of the greatest pressure—wheth
er the genial rains descended, or the sun parched
up the land—whether we were in the first du
bious venturers of anew cultivation, or “went
on the old system,” nothing daunted, our sturdy
minded planter diligently cast the seed upon the
ground, and cheerfully awaited harvest time.—
And when his proverbial industry and indepen
dence have brought him to that proud condition
in which he may claim to he the true aristocrat
and the grand almoner of the world, wiser men
arc busy proving to him that he is no better than
a beggar, or will be soon, without the aid of
Government.
We see some Agricultural Societies at the
North are making big threats that if the present
Congress docs not do something for the farmers
of the country, they will rally and make their
mark when it comes to voting. All this, we
suppose, is instigated by the prosperous state in
which agriculture exists everywhere on the Con.
tinent at this day, and this interest becomes rest
less, exacting and overbearing, just because it
has nothing to complain of. It will be a sad
time for our history, as it will be for every other
industrial interest in America, if the landed pro
prietors should combine, and begin tinkering
upon their foitunes through the Government
agency. Those gentry who have heretofore
been so anxious to effect an alliance with plant
ers in making a foray on the national treasury,
would then cry out in vain for some power to
protect them against the lion they called in to
subsidize them.
We can easily understand how a department
under the Government devoted to the statistics
of agriculture—to the collecting of fruits and
seeds and their distribution over the land, could
do good, and great good. It might be done at
little or no expense, for in times of peace our
navy could be busy in collecting these contribu
tions to our great interest, from every part of the
world, and our members of Congress could ensi
ly attend to their distribution. The National
Institute could, with great advantage upon its
munificent foundation, take charge of costly ex
periments anil analyses, and publish through this
agricultural bureau, the results in such a popu
lar form that all who are interested could easily
get the avails of them. This would bo all the
protection that farmers would ever ct re for, or
that as honest, hard-working men, they could
honorably receive.
The suggestion made tr. the Ba.tttnorc papers,
an extract from which we published on the Blli
inst., of a grand convention of furmersand plant
ers of the Middle Atlantic States, is a far more
praiseworthy enterprise. The object seems to
be to organize these States into something like
an agricultural representation. We have for a
long time viewed this step as among the most
important reforms of the day. There has been
a great lack of prompt and good intelligence a
mong planters—of a quick and reliable medium
of intercommunication. Spread over so vast an
expanse of country, a suggestion or a plan of re
form, could only reach this class through the
press, where its effect was lost by an attenuated
division among tens of thousands of men, who
only thought in silence upon the matter. They
had no chance to talk of it when talking could
do no good. We will give an instance where
association would years ago have conferred a
lasting good on the planters of our great staple.
When it was loudly proclaimed by the knowing
onesa few years ago, that we were gluttingevery
market by an over-production ofcotton, it would
clearly have been a relief to the pressure that
was on the price of this commodity, to have had
ten millions of yards of bagging made from each
crop. And besides the withdrawal offifty thous
and bales of cotton from the legitimate consump
tion of this irtirU. whet a saving would l;ny<>
followed to the planter, who often during the
greatest depression of the cotton market, had to
pay the highest prices for bagging. This im
portant economical reform never would have
failed, if farming clubs had been established all
over these States, as they should be, for thous
ands of me.n belonging to them were fully com-
petent to have explained at any weekly meeting
of the members, what an interest every planter
had in this thing. The argument and figures
could have been given, and then resolutions j
would have soon followed, by which the club j
could have hound itself to use none hut cotton j
bagging, and the next step would have been from
the same quarter,and application to the next
factory in the neighborhood for the supply, and
faithful work at the factory and a fair experiment
by the planter, would have convinced Georgia
cotton raiseis that bagging for their crops made
of their staple, was not too weak or too easily rot
ted to answer their purpose. So of many other
things. But wo would sooner see our farmers
driving oxen and asses in the same yoke, ns they
do in Egypt, and they dragging a crooked slick
through the ground for a plough, than have the
most splendid results to follow an unjust pro
tection from the Govejnment, which, while it
fills the pocket, degrades and corrupts the heart
ofthe planter.
New Am k rican Coins.— The Scientific Amer
ican says: Some new coins have been struck a*
the mint, Philadelphia, to illustrate the Biff
presented by Senator Dickinson, which is now
in the Committee ofFinancc and they are al
loys for one and three cent pieces. The cent
peice is designed as a substitute for the present
copper coin, and contains the proportion of sil
ver one tenth—expressed in its legend. The
effect of this infusion of precious metal, smaller
as it is, besides lightening the color perceptibly
is *.o reduce greatly the bulk ofthe coin ofthat
denomination, and to make it much more con
venient and portable. Its weight is twenty-five
grains, while that of the present cent is one
hundred and sixty-eight. It has a large round
hole in the centre, which extends the diameter
oftlte piece to a proper measurement, being the
the same as that of the dime which is as small
as could be desired for such a coin ; it affords a
distinctive mark, by w hich the piece may he re
cognized and safely paid out even by the touch ;
it affords a facility to retailers to put the pieces
up in parcels, sny of hundred or thousand, by
s tringing them, or putting them on a wire.
The three-cent piece is an alloy of three
fourths silver and one-fourth copper, its weight
twelve and three-eight grains; its diameter just
midway between the gold dollars and the half
dime. The bill provides that its devices shall
be “conspicuously different from those of other
silver coins j” and consequently we have a radia.
ted liberty cap on one aide, and a wreath enclos
ing the Roman numerals 111 on the reverse.—
It is also distinguished from the half-dime by a
smoothe border. It has the white appearance
ofpure silver. This coin is proposed ns con
vienient adaption to the prices of many things,
and to making change ; but there is also a special
object contemplated in relation to it. The coun
try is weary ofthe worn-out Spanish money.
We cannot but hope that the abominable
Spanish currency will all be thrown out of use
in the course of a year or so. We hope the Bill
will pass into a law as soon as possible. There
is no coin so convenient as the decimal kind,
and none so barbarous us the 6.J and 12J Span
ish pieces.

Mis central, in the immediate vicinity
ofthe most important pnblrc Institutions,
the beet and most fashionable places of
business, and the attractive public Squares Os the
city. In the important requisites of light and
ventilation, two principal objects aimed at in the
recent enlargement and thorough improvement
of this HOUSE, it is not exceeded, perhaps, by
any establishment in America. To strangers,
therefore, its position is peculiarly desirable.
The Subscriber returns thanks to his friends
and the public, for the liberal patronage they
have extended to him, and assures them that he
will endeavor to merit a continuance of their
favors. A F. GLASS,
