All this occurred at the Capital, and under
Mr. Polk's own eve. He kse,c all that was Trans
, !, q,
Ac'eu ,here' Tor appeared IN inc hAiiy papers
lie kneic that the preamble was moved as an
amendment. He h.,,, that tho reason ASSIGNED
for opposing it was the falsity Of the clause that
war existed by the act Of Mexico lie tneg
that all the Wings voted against that amend
ment, thus stamping the preamble as untrue !:
and he Iner that on the final vote, the Wings
voting for the bill, did 50 protesting against its
truth. Yet in the face of all this he gravely as
serts in public Message, that this preamble was
passed with great unonimiiy, only I,ro members
Of the Senate and fourteen OF the House voting
against it." Such quibbling and contempt Of
truth would disgrace the meanest pettisogpcr
that figures in the Police or Justice Courts.
