at no practical result because the power must be
exercised according to the law or its creation |;
and one party cannot settle controversy without
the consent of the other. In short, it is quite
absurd to suppose that the United States could
purchase and succeed to the rights of Mexico to
this contested boundary without the consent Of
Texas. This Government did not relinquish any
of the boundary of Maine without the consent of
that State, although Great Britain was in actual
adverse possession. Was any one so obtuse as
assert that the United States could acquire in
opposition to Maine'
IL. The resolutions Of annexation, in terms, fix
the boundary with mathematical precision as to
all the country south OF $50 30', and sufficient
north Of it for at least one State. They provide
for new States, and declare, " And in such State
or States MS shall be formed out OF said territory
north of said compromise line, (36o 3U y slavery
or involuntary servitude Except for crime) shall
be prohibited"
This is declaration that the country north OF
that line, sufficient for State, belongs to, and
is rightfully included within, the limits of Texas.
A title with such boundary would be sufficiently
certain to authorize recovery in ejectment be-
tween private litgants. A surveyor could go
upon the ground and set up the metes and
bounds. As to all below $50 30', it is utterly
| impossible that there can be amy dispute about
lines. In his speech of yesterday, Col. Benton
says
"The Missouri Compromise line was curtail-
resolutions were the same"
| How could the Texas resolutions be q curtail-
ment of slavery, if the country which she claimed
north Of $50 80 was not her territory by right !?
That the intent was to admit Texas with the
boundaries claimed by herself, subject only to
the right Of adjusting them with others, is further
demonstrated by the provision of the resolutions
that the State shall also retain all the vacant and
usapproprated lands lying ,cithin its limits, to be
applied to the payment of the debts and liabilities
Of said Republic of Texas ; and the residue Of
said lands, after discharging said debts and liza
bilities, to be disposed of said State may
direct What limits had the Republic, but those
she set up. und asserted by her own political
actions II is obvious that the reference is to
them and no other, especially when all the pro-
visions are taken together.
Mr.. Chairman, Texas is strong in the legal
force and justice of her claim. She will be strong
in the sympathy and support of the South, for
the precedent which would permit Congress to
appropriate any portion of her territory to free
soil, would open the food-gates of Abolition upon
the institutions of every Southern State within the
confederacy. / am quite certain that but for this
sectional question, her title would have been
the subject of contest.
The southern press., 1850-06-25
Mr.. Soule's Substitute for tho California
Bill, reported by the Committee.


The Substitute divides California by the
Missouri Compromise line, extended to the
Pacifc-remands her constitution back to
the convention for reduction OF limits, and
an ordinance saving the public domain from
forfeiture and escheat, and organizes new
territory upon the Pacific coast, to be called
"South California, &c.
We learn that this substitute is the order
of the day in the Senate, for l2 o'clock
this day, the Gath inst.-and that Sena-
tor Soule, of Louisiana, has the floor.
AS the Missouri Compromise line stretch
ed to The Pacific, is that line of adjustment
which the universal South greatly prefers at
this time to all others, as il is the uhtimatum
Of the Nashville Convention, and will proba-
bly, have the support Of every Southerner,
