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 ville,and to the officers of the Convention were adopted, and the Convention ad journed on the 12th inst., for the present.

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. MACON MARKET, JUNE 22.
