NEW PROPOSITION.

II was supposed, that we should have no more pro-
positions about Texas General Jackson complain
ed of there being too many already and il was be-
leved that the battle would be fought and the ques-
tlon decided upon Mr.. Browns resolutions, which
had passed the popular branch of Congress by 90
jority. These resolutions were Just in themselves
conciliatory towards Texas, and liberal towards all
rtioDs of the Union 1t was fervently hoped that
they would have been adopted by the Senate, and
thus the whole controversy would have been sd.
justed.
But Mr. Benton has thought fit TO throw new
proposition before the Senate, the great object OF
which is, TO admit Texas State, soon as the
terms 10 be arranged between Texas and the Com
missioners Of the United States should be adopted
either by the Treaty making power, two thirds of
the Senate,) or by the legislative power, viz: ma
oritu OF both Houses, and the President. We regret
that Col Benton should have seen fit TO offer this
new proposition at this time. He has unqueston
ably right to make any proposition in the full ex-
ercIse Of his legitimate powersbut in this stage of
the proceedings, upon measure of such trapscen-
dant importance, and any failure is calculated to wrap
the country in the flames Of a Missouri controversy,
the author OF IT assumes little responsibility. 1t
seems to us that the proposition Of the House should
have first been properly tested, and that the new
scheme is certainly not calculated to promote its sue
cess-but if 1t had failed, after fair trial. then IT
might have been competent 10 Col. Benton TO bring
forward his own.
for Browns. We hope it will yet be adopted. We
approve its terms, and it will and more cer-
tsIny close up the fountain Of bitter waters which
threatens TO overflow the land. We suspect that
Col. Benton cannot get his bill through the Senate
m its present shape, and il he can, have serious
fears that it will not meet the support Milton
Browns resolution
But will not believe, unless we see the predic-
ton verified by the fact itself that what the w ash
ington Correspondent of the Baltimore American
writes the 9th can be true viz Mr.. Benton will
not 1t now certain, vote for the Joint resolutions
from the House Of Representatives and the only
danger of their adoption then passes away. Had
three Wings voted for them, and the entire oppos-
uon they would have been carried. Mr. Bentons
BILL therefore, leaves no hope of annexation at pre-
sent" On the contrary, we informed, upon the
most respectable authority, that he will do nothing
to mar the House measure, for which he will vote in
case his own should not prove acceptable to the bedy
Of the Democracy So far we have advised with
them, it is not acceptable to them-cerainly not
acceptable as Browns resolution.

is THE COUNTRY RUINEDi

Not democratic victory has been won, buff we
are to believe the federal, or wing cry-the country
has been ruined by it, During the late Presidential
contest it was boldly and basely asserted by the fed
eral wing orators, and the press their interests,
that should Mr. Polk be elected, the country would
certainly be ruined. The wages Of labor would be,
said these croakers, about ten cents day. and labor
ers would only get meat about once or twice a week
Manufactures, commerce. agriculture, were all to
be ruined. In particular the manufacturing bu-
sness TO be brought to dead-stsnd still
1t may be well, perhaps, to look into this matter
little, and see If there prospect of the entire
inaon of the country, and manufactures, in particu
lar, by the election Of Young Hickory" We sup
pose that the Lawrences, great capitalists of Boston,
know as much about the manufacturing business and
are deeply engaged in it any other men in New
England. Are they about to wind up their business
in consequence of the election of Mr.. Polk to the
Presidency We have nothing that indicates
such course; on the contrary, have the strong.
est proof that they about to enlarge the field of
their operations during the present year.
A petition)has been presented to our Legislature
at its present session, from Samuel Lawrence asking
for an act OF incorporation, with capital Of half
million, for the purpose of erecting dam across the
Merrmac river, about six or seven miles below Low
ell. And we are told that the object Of this dam
appro Pirate the waters of this river to manufacturing
purposes and that new mills are TO follow, and
new manufacturing city is to spring up, rivalng Low
ell in the magnitude OF its operations and the number
of its population.
So it seems the country is not ruined, land even
the Lawrences do not think it will be by the election
of democratic President. We would how ever,
look at this matter in another light. We are glad
that wealth seeks investment, and trust that
the labor which is to be employed in these
manufacturing establishments, and in all the old
ones, Will be well pad-that the men who produce
the wealth will get reasonable share of it in COM
pensation for their labor. Al the present time the
manufacturers are coming money-they are making
immense profits, and while their "hogs grow fat, It
may, perhaps be well to inquire "whose corn they
are fed upon" Do the farmers know and feel that
every grist which they carry to mill, and every days
labor is taxed by the present tariff, to increase the
profits of these manufacturing corporations
