Gentlemen will detain you but a moment longer. Hbu
know perhaps that gave my vote in Congress against he
treaty Of peace with Mexico because brought under the

willing to admit that territory and leave the que

that the ought to be continued for the purposes Of
conquest and acquisition He declared that the with
Mexico ought not 10 be prosecuted by this Government with
any view the Acknowledgement of that republic the
QUESTION by conquest Of any portion Of her territory. That
proposition he introduced in the form Of resolution into Con-
gess and believe that every Wing in Congress but one
voted for IT, But the Senators belonging to the Locoioco
Democratic patty voted against it. Gen. Cass from the IRE,
State Of Michsan, Mr.. Fairfield, from Maine Mr. Niles
from Connec and Others voted against il, and the vot
lost Tha is these gentlemen Of thsm very pro

willing to bring in the territory, and then have squat

tory was Of opinion that the true and safe policy was
shut out the whole question, by getting no territory, and
thereby keep of the controversy.
Gentlemen IN an important crisis in English history,

then called the Duke Of York, proposition was made
Parliament TO exclude him from The throne. Some said tit
very rash measure brought forward by very rash
that they had better admit him and then put limitations uP

going member is reported have risen and expressed rs
sentiments by rather grossque and plain comparison, ut
one Of considerable force, which was as follows
"I hear a lion in the lobby room;
Say, Mr. Speaker, shall we shut the door,
And keep him out, or let him in,
And then try TO get him out again -
Other more confident spirits who are Of the charaer
of Woomwe, were for letting the lion in and disturbing
all the interests Of the country, but was for keeping I'm
out altogether. And when this Mexican treaty came pc
fore the Senate had certain clauses cedng New Mexico nd
California TO the United States. Southern genems-
Mr.. Badger, Of North Carolina-moved to strike out ose
