Mr. MCKAY was for great modification.
Mr.. BLACK said, correct abuse, but do not
destroy the Academy.
Mr. HARRISON, Of Ca, was partially OPP
posed, and partially not M
Mr.. FICKLIN was for entire destruction, and
that as soon as possible. 1t was a corrupt rot
ten, and detestabe institution.
Mr.. DAVIS, Of Kentucky, thought it little
inconsistent that the very memberswho displayed
in their remarks here the most warlke spirit, who
were constantly talking about war, and the Prov
ess of the people in arms, should be foremost in
their zeal for the destruction of an institution de-
signed to impart military knowledge. Mr.. D. be-
lieved that most Of the disasters that occurred in
the last war might be traced to want of proper
military science in the officers whom we had in
service.
If rumor was 10 be credited, we were to have,
some time this session, treaty for the annexa-
ton of Texas. If this should he, who could say
how near we now stood to one Of those collisions
in which foe met foe, and steel clashed against
STEEL We might have a war with Mexico, or
with Great Britain, which would call for all our
military skill and resources, and render the insti-
tuition inestmably vnluable.
Mr. ID. TOOK occasion, before closing MS re-
marks, to pay high compliment to Lieutenant
Hanson, Gone of the graduates of West Point,)
for bis brilliant services in the late Florida war
Mr.. McCLELLAND, OF Mich, made sensi-
Bile defence of the institution.
Mr.. HOLMES, of S. c., took the same posi-
ton.
Mr.. WELLER, Of Ohio, went for the destruc-
ton Of the Academy. 1t is a little singular that
Mr.. WIS first effort, after period of long silence
should be ia speech about 6ghting.] He parti-
cularly reflected upon cadets for resigning when
the Florida war broke out.
Mr.. FISH, of N. Y, asked him if he knew
about what time Lieut.. Van Buren,, son of Mar
tin Van Buren,, resigned his commission?
Mr.. WINTHROP, in answer to some sugges-
tons about Texas, said he believed there was
more in that matter than met the ear, and, friend
ly as he was to West Point, if he thought that
the military knowledge acquired there was to be
applied in wrenching Texas from Mexico, he
would vote with the gentleman from New Hamp-
shire for dwelling the Academy with the ground.
Mr.. SCHENCK, of Ohio, next addressed the
Committee in cogent argument Of considerable
length in defence Of West Point.
The Committee rose, and Mr.. C.. JOHNSON
submitted resolution fixing the time for closing
debate on this bill to be FIVE minutes after the
Committee next take it up.
A motion for adjournment was made, and the
