TThe following resolutions hay

IS The following resolutions have
been passed by the Louisiana Legisla-
ture, where The wings are in a MAORI
~. viii the two wing Senators dare
TO disobey the will Of their constituents?
Be it Resoired By The S.nats and House
of Representatives. Of Louisiana in Gener-
al assembly conrsned, That it's their de-
Hibernate opinion, that a majority of the
people OF Louisiana are ~iafavoI of the
immediate annexation of Texas TO the
United States, by any lawful and consti-
t~utional means. Prouidsd, it be stipula-
ted in the act of annexation that Texas
shaI! enjoy all the rights and privileges
now secured 10 hat portion of territory
ceded 10y France TO the United States un-
del the name Of Louisiana, and living
south Of 36 80 north latitude.
Res0lred, &C., That the Governor be
requested 10 transmit a copy of these re-
solutions 20 each Of the Senators and
Representatives in Congress from Lou
isIana, with arequest that they be sub
mitted TO both Houses Of Congress.
The Legislature of Louisiana, has thus
taken a Pstriot!c stand on this greet Am-
erican measure.
The New Orleans Tropic, a jealous
Wing paper, says:
sour readers will learn with plea
sure, that the House of Representatives,
yesterday adopted the resolutions intro
duced by Mr.. Compbell, of Nalchitoch-
es III favor Of the Annexation of Texas.
by the decisive vote of IS ayes to l6
noes Mr. fampb.N's resoluiious en-
brace a Pou'so, assuring the people of
Texas the same rights, privileges and
~irnmumties as were allowed 10 The peo-
pie ofthe Territory Of Louisiana, under
the Treaty Of Cession. In other words.
the ProriSo guarantees the existence Of
siarsry in all that portion 0 Texas South
Of 80 degrees 80 North latitude. which
is the line of demarcation adopted in the
Missouri compromise. The people of
the South, particularly Of Louisiana, are.
without distinction party, in favor of
Annexation, because of the security it
will ensure 10 the institutions of the
South. II Texas is annexed, il must be
as a slavcholding country, or country,
or NOT al ALL
The Commercial Bulletin, another
wing paper, says:
at is proper 10 remark in connection
with the proceedings of the House of
Representatives, which we publish else
where, that the vote in favor of Mr..
Campbell's resolutions, declaratory Of
the sentiments of the people ofthis state
with regard TO the annexation Of Texas.
would have been still larger than it was,
except a considerable number of the
warmest friends OF Annexation, prefer
ring the unconditional resolution report
ed by the minority Ofthe committee, vo-
ted against Mr.. Campbell's substitute, in
the hope 10 bring up and carry the ORR
ginal proposition. A degree of unani-
NIFTY quite remarkable, ii will, therefore.
be seen prevails in the House of Repre-
sentatives on this topic. An opinion
adopted by SO general n concurrence OF
The Immediate Representatives Of the
people, deserves, and will no doubt, *
%ercisc, great influence with the senator's
and representatives of the State in the
Federal Legislature"
