Correspondence Of The Boston Post (Dsmoerat)

Correspondence Of The Boston Post Demoerat)
WAsHiNoToH, August 7th, 1850.
The Presidents message in regard TO the Texas
boundary Is the ruling topic of conversation now,
and, from what can learn, it gives very general
satisfaction to all moderate men, including even
some of the ultras. The Union of this morning
does not like it, and Mr. Volney Howard has made
speech against it; but il is nevertheless an able
bold, and yet exceeding concatory state paper.
The President IN his message, merely explains
the law, and the necessity under which he would
lind himself of protecting Vi ct arms the individual
rights of the people Of New Mexico, under the Con-
5ttuton Of the United States and the treaty of peace
with Mexico lie disclaims all discretionary pow
or, and all intention on his part to establish mill
tary or civil government in New Mexico till the
boundary question is settled, SO that il may be
known what is New Mexico. The message, at the
same time expresses the opinion that the vexed
question shall be settled, not by the appointment
Of commissioners, which is long and tedious pro-
cess, nor by suit in chancery but now, before this
Congress adjourns, with view to prevents COLI
sion. This is indeed all that every reasonable man
would wish ior-all that persons and States sin
cerely attached to the Union ought TO ask at the
hands of the General Government.
And, in view of the constant threats and nnuen-
does thrown out by southern Senators and members
il was, perhaps, very wise policy for Mr. Webster
thus to point to the duties of the General Govern
ment which are compulsory and not optional with
the Chief Magistrate. Thus far, there has been no
end to the swagger Of the uras and if their buster
remained uncontradicted it might really appear as
if the General Government had yielded its assent
10 all their absurd preensons Mr. FILLMORE and
MIR. WEBSTER, wishing to act honestly and above
board, gave their views at to the public. They
mean TO stand on the constitutional platform un-
der all circumstances; urging Congress, at the
time, to adjust all matters in dispute peacea-
bly,, To prevent the occurrence of the extreme
case provided against by the Constitution.

their passage TO America, the land of DroInise-but

In the course OF the year these small relnttanccs

From the Norfolk Hlrnld.

Our columns to-day chiefly occupied by tho
important message Of President FILLMORE elected
by the letter Of Governor Bell Of Texas, and Mr.
WEssTER's reply to that letter. The message is the
first indication the public have bad Of the course
which the new administration proposes to take in
regard to the grave questions which are now agi-
tatng the country, and such it will be read with
unwontcd interest. We have read il auentyely
and, We will add, impartially, and in no partcu-
lar do find il liable to objection. 1t cannot be
said TO be uncaled for or i'll timed, as Mr. Howard
"a representative from Tcxas) has declared. The
letter from the Governor Of Texas called for reply
and the excited state Of the public feeling in Texas
threatening resort 10 violent measures against
New Mexico, required that reply to be promptly
given; while IL no lcss the duty Of the Prcsi
dent to communicate TO Congress a copy Of the
reply, with his own views of his constitutional OBJ
legations in the premises. Nor can we imagine pos
sibiiy Of any exception to the Presidents views of
Executive duty in the last resort, respecting which
the Constitution leaves ground for cavil doubt
nor TO the spirit in which he makes known his de-
termination TO comply with his solemn oath to
maintain the constitution. The message, we have
doubt, will be received with warm appreciation
throughout the country, and tend to confirm the
public confidence in the judgment, energy, and
discreet craftsmanship OF President FILLMORE.

that it is executed is imperatiyey imposed on the
President, although he says sit is exceedingly de-
srable that occasion should arise for the exercise
OF those powers vested III the President by the Con
sutution and the laws. With whatever mildnoas
those powers might be executed, or however clear
the case OF necessity, yet consequences might
nevertheless follow of which 40 humap sagacity
can ioresee either the evils the end.' The Presi
dent, therefore, urges upon Congress, in the most
earnest manner, an adjustment, by that body, of
this delicate and threatening question soon as
possible.
