IfcT* Will the Fedsfal I'nlon, llcMrilrr •ml Southern Uourant please eopy. SOUTHERN COURANT. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 97, 1846. Wo pi'iMtuii the Hpeoch of Mr. Hip. plmna, on the Toxin question, entire, in this duy’s paper, believing that our readers would prefer it (though tuking up so much room,) to having it divided. It will secure their perusal without any recommendation from tjs. Tim T<ix;t* (ituvstion. Our readers will not fail to sec in the speech of the Hon. Mr. Hipphons, evidences of that subtle logic, bold atiack of opposl. tion, and able defence of position* assumed for wliicdt he is distinguished. The been ties which also gracefully adorn it, expect, ally where lie alludes to thu Union and to the Mouth, will necessarily strike the reader’s attention. Knowing Mr. Hte. phon# ns wo do, we cannot for a rno ment doubt Ills political integrity and virtue, in thn course wliioli has been a dopted liy him. Hiring, however, as are bis various reasonings in defence of the constitutionality of the admission of Texas by joint resolution into this Union—plans! Ido as are his views of the expediency and propriety of llio measure, wo consider the first iniider|iinto ami Insiiilieient, and tin latter deceptive mid illusory, though mge nious and seductive. We have not the room if we had the inclination to review his remarks In detail, and regret the necessity for a difference of opinion with him, To this subject, we linve, within the Inst day or two, given a deeper than at uny former period. Wo have done so for u two.fnld purpose. To find consfftn. tionnl authority for llie net r,f admission by a joint resolution of Cong res*—to reconcile it to the interests nfthe nation st large and thn south in particular. Our convictions heretofore expressed, are deeper mol strong, cr by additional investigation and re five, tion. Wn have examined the subject not ns a partlzan, not us a Whig, not from any ■elfish or narrow minded considerations, but as a friend to the constitution, to our liberties, and to the perpetuity of our Fed. era! Union Wo are not professing to speuk a* the organ of party. No one is re. sponsible but ourself for the views which wo entertain and present to our readers and thn public. The grounds of constilu. tloiuil opposition to this measure, we gave in the respective numbers of this paper of the 1 sttli end 90lli inst. Wo have seen no reason to falter in those opinions, and refer our renders to them for such an answer ns we would give to the arguments of the gen tinman to whoso speech wo refer. There are, however, a few positions of that speech, to which wo will refer attention with a few brief comments. Mexico ami tiii: ll.vrrnn States, Mr. H. I bin I: that the United HlOtes will not make herself h porty to the war between Mexico and Texas as former, ly she would luivo done, because Mexico lias fulled ft. Wstuhlish her authority over Texas or to make efforts to effect it—be* cause there line been no actual war as was threatened within the Inst ltd or 18 months —because M> xico is weal;< r and more pow. orloss than when those threats were made, Mr. H. alludes to her internal dissentions and civil strifes. Ho fur from coming to the same conclusion with Mr. H. we come to one directly the opposite. Hunts Anna lias boon overthrown. Mo lias been called the Napoleon of that section of this Conti* nent. As the overthrow of Napoleon gave peftoc to Hurope, so, the overthrow ofHun. ta Anna will give peace to Mexico. Much is the opinion of sensible writers and oh. serving men in tbut country. Her disarm tions therefore, being healed, her people be. coming united, site will he belter prepar' and to wur upon Texas, and to injure the Uni* ted States if the latter becomes « party to that war, That war will be declared a* gainst the United Stales by Mexico in the event of the annexation of Texas, has been declared by her Minister to this country, by her authorities «t home, and by tho op posers of Manta Anna, who now h*ve ttn disputi and control of tho tiovermnent. Admission of New States. Mr. S. contend* that the United States do not acquire foreign territory by me ad mission of Texas as a now Stale. They acquire nothing but the advantages ol the connection, and merely enlarge the limits of the Union. Well really it would seem to us, that if Texas is admitted she is ac- qnirrd. Thn Unfon »u tertfenf fee I*. t'*te her admission, and qfVr it ,* tn wot. *e«<in» id her. Mr. Ht> pin i«,we a* ' I, does not bulk to Dm I Jackson *• >r lit opinion*, but flan, 1 am-tended it.
