CONGRESS-WEpNEspAY.

In the Senate, the morning hour was occu-
cry sectien of the country in favor Of the mme-
eiate Annexation Of Texas; which was all The
business done at the time our paper went TO
press.
In the House, after the reading of the Journal
of yesterday, Mr.. WHITE, Of Kentucky, moved
TO correct the journal, so as to make it appear
that his motion was to adjourn for the purpose
of taking up the carpets, instead of simply adj
journing until Friday next Messrs. DUNCAN
and w ELLER responded to Mr.. WHITE, and said
that was not his motion, but simply qual6ca-
ton. Mr.. WHITE said he knew his motion
better than the gentleman from Ohio, (Mr.
WELLER.) Mr.. WELLER said that might be
the case; but he had no objection to the
correction, provided 1T contained the facts,
which was to adjourn so as to attend The Con-
venton but with the qualification TO take up
the carpets Mr.. f.. J. MoRRts presented me-
mortal contesting the seat of the Hon. David
Levy. Mr.. LEVY called upon Mr. MoRRrs to
state if the memorial was from any Of his con-
srituents, and Mr.. MORRIS declined answering.
The House then took up the resolution of Mr..
BRopuEAD, to stop all debate on The tariff on
Wednesday, the 9Th of May, and Mr.. DRoM-
cooLE moved to amend it by inserting Monday
next; and the previous question was demanded,
and seconded, by the following vote: yeas II.
NAYS 81. The question then REQUIRED on the
amendment of Mr.. Dromgoole and the yeas
and NAYS were demanded aud ordered and the
following is the result: yeas 3S, nays I0l.
The resolution was then agreed to. Mr.. E. ].
MoRRls then moved suspension of the rules
so as 10 allow him the opportunity of presenting
the memorial contesting the seat of the Hon.
DAVID LEVY; which was disagreed to- Mr..
offered a resolution setting apart
certain days in May for the consideration of the
business of the District Of Columbia, after the
disposition of the Tariff bill which was agreed
to. Mr.. VANCE, from the Committee on Claims,
made a report; which was appropriately disposed
or Mr. MCKAY then moved q suspension of
rho rules for the House TO resolve itself into a
Committee of the Whole on the state of the
Union to take up the Tariff bill which was
agreed to- Mr.. HoPKINs took the Chair, and
The Committee took up the Tariff BILL

NOMINATION
JOHN TYLER FOR THE PRESIDENCY BY
THE PEOPLE
THE MARYLAND STATE TYLER
CONVENTION.
Hon. J. RUaELEY.

THE MARYLAND STATE TYLER
CONVENTION,
Assembled in Baltimore on the 29th instant,
(AprIl) and unanimously nominated for the
next Presidency, john TYLER, of Virginia
Presiding officers-Stephen Boyd, of Har-
Arundel county, and Thomas f. Tilden, of
Baltimore county, Vice Presidents T. Ken
dali and H. Bannan, Secretaries.
Extracts from, the resolutions.
Resolred That we most cordially approve of and
in the views of President Tyler in relation to
the nexalion of Texas and believe that the ratii
cation of the Texas treaty Is necessary TO peace,
welfare, and future existence as a Daton and we ut
tery repudiate the sentiments recently advanced hy
both Martin Van Buren, and Henry Clay in regard
TO this momentous question: and that the position as
sumed by them will signally fail in receiving the
sanction of the American people.
RESOLVED, That we will not support any man for
the Presidency who is opposed to the IMMEDIATE an
nexaiion of Texas to the United States, or who
would interpose any obstacles in the way of forever
securing TO the country what properly belongs to it
the territory of OREGON.
Resolved, That adhere TO the nomination Of
John Tyler, the honest President and Richard M.
johnson, The defender of his country, the proper
Democrat candidates for President and Vice Presi-
dent of the United States.
Delegates TO the Baltimore TYLER General
Convention from the various Congressional
Districts Of the State:
|. William s. Sangston, of Calvert county.
2. Michael G. Spiigg, of Allegheny county.
3. Thomas Kehoe, of Baltimore county.
4. Thomas Lloyd, of Baltimore city.
8. Stephen Boyd, of Hartford county.
6. w. E. Tmmons, Of Worcester county.
Charles Soran and Cornelius NJ Cole were
appointed as Delegates AT large to the Baltimore
General Tyler Convention.

TEXAS, OR no TEX AS2

It is almost impossible to estimate in its full
extent the importance of the measure OF An
nexation, and the momentous consequences
which will result from its defeat in the Senate
= should such be its fate.
The two chief leaders Of the two old party
organizations having declared themselves TO be
opposed to the Annexation of Texas, 1t IS rem
dered necessary for all those who are in favor OF
the measure to declare themselves It's advocates
without delay, and to take such steps as will
make known their numbers and power 10 Con-
gress, and to the world.
President Tyler of course stands committed
before the country in favor Of Annexation. His
friends know his position, as well as the trends OF
Messrs. Clay and Van Buren, know the positions
of their respective leaders. So there can be no
doubt, no uncertainty, in relation to this lmpor-
tant measure, as far as the Presidential candl-
dates are concerned. And we do not see how
friend of Annexation can support either Mr..
Clay or Mr. Van Buren,.
The die is cast. The opponents of Annexa-
ton having determined to make the measure
party question, it cannot be expected that the
friends of the President will shrink from the
contest. They will not shrink.
Therefore, we would earnestly call upon the
People in favor of Annexation, of every State
in the Union, to assemble without delay in mass
meetings and Conventions, SO that their wishes
and their purposes may be made fully known
at the Capitol.
~. B. 1t is quite certain vote will not be
taken on the Treaty for several weeks.
The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1844-05-03

Resolved, That we will consent to support
Martin Van Buren, for the Presidency at the mex
Presidential election, because are sure and see
defeat staring ia the face-and as friends Of the
Democratic party, would ask, and honestly ask Mr.
Van Barren to Withdraw from the field as candidate
at the coming contest as be is perfectly Of his
late, II he persists IN standing candidate for the
Presidential chair in 1874, which will PROSTATE the
Democratic party in the United States, which can
not be redeemed for many years to CO ne.
Resolved, That we congratulate President Tyler
for calling to his aid the talents of country the
Hon. John G. Calhoun of South Carolina William
Wilkins, of Pennsylvania, John c. Spencer, of New
York, John Y. Mason, of Virginia William II. King,
of Alabama, Calvin Blythe, of Pennsylvania, Joel
B. Sutherland, Of Pennsylvania.
Resolped, That the recent election in the State and
city of New York, proves in the most decided man.
ner, that Mr.. Martin Van Buren's prospects are in
most rapid decline.
Resolved, That we recommend the nomination of
John Tyler, OF Virginia, for President, Col. Richard
Mentor Johnson, of Kentucky, or Silas Wright of
New York, for Vice President, of the United States
Either Of those sterling Democrats would receive the
full vote Of the Democratic party. II
Resolved, That We sincerely return our thanks to
President Tyler for the noble stand he has taken in
regard TO the remuneration of Texas into the Union
and for the promptness Of signing for the to be
received into the United States where she formerly
belonged.
ResSlped, That the foregoing resolution relative
" ieAas, uc transmitted 10 our senators anu REPRE-
sentatves at Washington and that they be requested
to lay them before the two Houses of Congress 4
Resolced, Thatwe heartily approve of the election
of delegate from the Fifth Congressional District
of Pennsylvania, comprising the counties of Mont
gomery and Delaware-of Third District Delegate,
Charles Kelley, Esq, of Delaware, and the follow
ing Delegates from Montgomery and Delaware
counties, viz:
John W. Grow,

EXTRACTS ::

We have received intelligence that treaty has
already been made TO incorporate it into the Amer-
can Union and should that treaty be ratified, then by
its fortunate acceptance the subject is at an end, but
if it should be rejected, we must be blind indeed if
we do not see the ground of opposition, and more
blind to our interest and to the safety of nsu-
tons, if do not resent in manly manner the in
suit to our rights, which have been so often lately of
fered to us as shareholders In national point of
view, regard the subject of the greatest moment
Independent of its effect upon any particular section
It is needless TO blink or even evadc the question:
il too important it presses itself upon us, and we
cannot escape it, and with us, Of 'hs South, when
the alternative is presented Of its annexation to u.s.
