mean no disparagement Of these troops; |
only intend to say that their brief term Of SER
vice rendered it impossible for them 10 perform
great deal towards the results OF the war"
MIR. Smart then dwells moment upon
the character Of the war, showing il to have
been undertaken to defend and to complete
the act Of the annexation Of Texas. He
regards, most Justly and nationally, Texss
as one Of the acquisitions Of the war, and
says.
"By this joint effort of our arrns we have Sc
cured 10 the use of the nation E.3 ,07S square
miles of land, embraced in the territory Of Tex
as, New Mexico, and California. | regard the
territories of Texas, New Mexico, and Califor-
MA, as one acquisition-and all equally the re-
suits of the war. Texas consented to be annex
ed TO the United States in lS45, by "joint reso-
iutions," in consideration that our government
would defend her from an impending and mena-
chg foe.
"An must agree, as free laborers will not
settle upon slave territory. that the free States,
having contributed their share of men ano
money towards the acquisition of Texas, New
Mexico, and California, are entitled TO their &C
QUESTION. as free territory, cotdinc 10 their
population. How. then, M. CHzirt aaa, dvrs
the account now stand7 Texas, embraces su-
psrficies Of 1871 900 square miles, assuming the
boundary fixed by the laws Of Texas. Califor-
MIA and New Mexico amount to 526,0io square
miles. The aggregate Of these several tracts is,
as have already stated, 1913 ,07S square miles
Now, the population Of the free States amount
TO about ~ 900, and that Of the slave States
to $3.50, 600 Provided the soil of Texas, New
Mexico, and California is of equal value, and
that the whole people Of the South are interest
ed in slavery, division according 10 popula-
ton would require that 554 ,5l3 square miles
should be free territory. Give Texas the line
she has assumed, and extend slavery no further,
and the sayeholding population will have much
more than their proportion of the whole terri
tory. You give for purposes Of entire freedom
526,O1s square miles, and leave for slavery
within the limits Of Texas $4,000 square
miles"
| cannot quote the whole Of this truly
great and convincing speech, and in exam
lining it, hardly know what parts of it to
extract for the information of your readers,
without doing injustice to that which must
be left. Mr.. Smart refers to the recent
statement from the land Office, relative to
the location Of soldiers warrants, which
cannot well omit. Here il is, with his
comments:
:" In confederation Of this statement, | ask
attention to the location Of land warrants by
the soldiers who served in the Mexican war,
agreeaby TO a report of the War Department.

A University In California.

]. Emery. Of Wellsboro. Pennsylvania,
has addressed a memorial to Congress,
asking that grant of land be made.
amounting to two hundred thousand acres,
in the territory Of California, to be held in
trust for the endowment and support Of a
university near the town Of Buens Vista,
on the Bay Of San Francisco. For the
immediate wants Of the university, he asks,
likewise, that the necessary scientific apPa-
ratus for astronomical and meteorological
purposes be lent to the institution, on con-
dition that full series Of observations be
made and sent to Washington, under the
direction OF the Smithsonian Institute.
The petition cites various cases Of grants
made by Congress for purposes Of educa-
ton in the territories, among which the
latest is the grant Of two townships IN
Wisconsin, made in the year 1888, Tor the
endowment Of a university in that terrific
y.-N. Y. Ere. Post.

sidering that it has the power to act in the
premises. That is question that DO not pro-
pose to touch; but the State of New York, one
Of the sovereign States OF this Union, has ven
tured, in respectful langusge-in terms far less
significant than those expressed by the people
Of the District Of Columbia--to divest itself OF
any responsibility in the matter; that is all.
II the Legislature of the State of New York,
then, in presenting these resolutions, merits
any reproach on account Of this expression Of
sentiment, gentlemen surely must perceive a
far heavier burden of reproach falls upon the
Inhabitants Of this District, who not only asked
for the abolition Of slavery, but in regard TO the
traffic expressed their opinion in very strong
and emphatic terms.
