cannot be increased perceptibly by piling Mont
Blanc upon it, and who has nothing to hope or

of the glory of having Texas annexed during nus
Administration. Polk, who dislikes the respon-
sibility Of calling an Extra Session or OF directly
pressing the Texas scheme as the cardinal
measure OF his Administration, would like to
have the plot consummated before he takes the
reins. The Slavery fanatics who swlndled van
Buren, out of his nomination and forced the lexss
issne on the North at the point OF the bayonet, are
anxious to clutch their winnings before the sostr
consideration of the Free States can DC brought
to bear on the matter. The Texas scrip.jobbers

that these Senator'S may be forced into the sup

neautralize it, there must be demonstration of

Lovers of Human Freedom and National
Righteousness, mighty responsibility is upon
YOU. You have no right to consider all lost
because one battle has boon lost. Party excite
ment and Petty d:in have done their worst, and
now the naked question of the fraudulent and
iai,hless acquisition Of Foreign Territory, IN
order TO prop Up a deplctabls Domestic scourge,
is directly presented TO the Country. It may be
that the Wrong is ultimately 10 triumph: Wha,
