There was most important Cabinet Council helt
last night; the question OF prescription was formally
considered and after most interesting debate the
question was put and the decision against pro-
seription by the following vote
For prescription Mr.. Ewing and Mr.. Colllmcr
Against IL The President, Mr.. Meredith, Mr.
Crawford, Mr.. Preston and Mr.. Johnson.
Mr.. Clayton was rInavodaby absent, but his views
were considered with those of the majority.
Mr.. Meredith made courteous firm. manly, and
determined stand against the views of the minority
and the President himself declared he would stand by
his pledges.
Whether Mr.. Ewing or Mr.. Collamer will remain
in the Cabinet is to be seen. II is thought they will

have yet to be given to Congress. recommen-
ca,ion by the President in favor of Texas would
probably settle the question. by the terms OF an
nexation, if new State, with the assent OF Texas,
should be formed OF New Mexico, 1t cannot be a
slaveholding state but at the option OF the people
The territory cannot support slave labor. On the
other hand. no separate territorial government can
be made for New Mexico, without breach of
the contract with Texas, and without hazard OF
alternating the South from the Union.
But we apprehend there will be ridiculous
waste of time upon this bone of contention. Free
soil has nothing else TO stand upon. Surrender
New Mexico to Texas, and the tree soilers are de-
funct, the slavery agitation Is defunct, and the
cliques OF agiiators will be broker up. Something
must be done. The boundary of Texas must be
settled, and New Mexico wants government.
We trust the President will recommend the policy
which Is best, without regard to party clques or
sectional demsgogues.
