The Arkansas banner., 1844-09-11

he last TWO paragraphs oi the address are as follows:
 'sWe hesitate not to say that annexation, effected by an act or proceedings of the Fed- eral Government, or any of its Departments, would be identical with dissolution. ltwould be a.yiolaton of our National compact, itsl objects, designs, and the great elementary principles which entered into it's formation, of a character so deep and Fundamental and would be an attempt to eternze an insti- mtion and power of nature so unjust in themselves, so injurious to the interests, and so abhorent to the feelings, of the people of the free States, as in our opinion, notonly in- evitably to result in DISSOLUTION OF TIE UNION, BUT FULLY TO JUSTI- FY TT and wenoi only assert that the peo- pie of the free States ought not to submit to it, but we say with confidence, they would not submit to 1t. We know their present temper and spirit on this subject too well to believe for moment that they would become particeps criminis in any such subt'a coniri- vance for the irremediable perpetualion of an institution which the wisest and best men who formed our federal constitution, as well from the slave as the free States, regarded as
 
 under the operation of lawsto be passed pro- hbiting the slave trade, and the progressive influence of the principles of the Revolution.
 ssTo prevent the success of this nelarious project--to preserve from such gross viola ton the Constitution of our country, adopted expressly sto, secure the blessings of liberty and not the perpetuation of slavery-and to prevent the SPEEDY AND VIOLENT DISSOLUTION OF THE UNION, we in- vite you to unite without distinction of party, i'll an immediate expression of our views on this subject, in such manner as you may deem best calculated to answer the end pro posed"
 The National intellgencer, in introducing the address to the attention of his readers, does not notice or rebuke the threats of dis union. Indeed, he would seem to approve of them, for he says-ssIf we feel any reluctance in complying with the request. from most highly respected source, to publish the sub joined article in reference to the anticipated question of the annexation of Texas to the United States, 1t is solely because of the ad- dress which 1t bears to the people of q por- ton only of the United States, excluding the remaining portion, as though that remainder  were not entitled to consideration, or not like ly to listen to any appeal in the premises, though the question discussed is one in which the whole body of the United States are inter- ested, and the geographical portion thereof excluded from this appeal not less so than the rest of the Union" Here he does not say that he has any reluctance to publishing the address but if heshas any, it is entirely fbeeause it violates propriety, not including all interested This is the sole objection 10 it
 Now, we sincerely hope, that whenever the Intelligcncer or the Globe, or the Eman- cipator, or Col. Benton, again mount the hob by Of ssdisnnion,o they will begin their carri coles by filling few notas of their humpe with the names of tthesevery grand "conspi rators' against the Union, and at the same time inform the country of the heroic and pa, triotic manner i'll which they first met them and vanquished theme They may then ride without the danger of being laughed at or un- | horsel
