THE TIMES

1Flt will be seen, by tie subioined ex,
tract from the message Of Gov. Burnett,
that the freeing Of slaves, by their owners
here previous to starting with them 10 Cali,
fornia may possibly result in their entire loss
or rather the total loss Of their services,
after their arrival in that country; notwith>
standing The fact OF indentures having been
entered into by the parties, which may, by
their tenor, be binding here both in law and
in fact.
This view OF the subject has caused sever.
al who intended such course, to reinquish
it at once and before i, is too late 10 correct
the matter.
"Our position upon the Pacific, our
commercial and mineral attractions,
would bring swarms ofthis population
to our shores. Already we have almost
every variety of,he human race among
us-a heterogeneous mass of human be
ings, Of every language and Of every
hue, That period is rapidly approach.
ing when the natural increase of popu'
lation in the States east of the Rocky
Mountains will render slave labor of
little or no value, and when investments
in ,ha, species ofproperty will cease to
be remunerative. If measures are not
early taken by this State, slaves will be
manumiited in the slave States, and
contracts made with them TO labor as
hlrelings for given number of years,
and they will be brought to California
in great numbers. Our State is now
in position TO take an efficient stand
upon this subject. A few years delay
will make it almost, if not quite, impos.
sible to do that which can be 80 easily
accomplished now. fCalifornia will
take decided stand now, and firmly
maintain il. a few years experience will
demonstrate the practical utility of the
measure. That weak and sickly sym.
palhy-that misplaced mercy, that
would hesitate TO adopt salutary meas
ure to-day, but would suffer all the in.
evitable consequences of to. morrow,
may consider the policy | propose as
harsh in its character; but if it is calcu.
lated to produce the creates, good to
the greatest number, i, is the best hu
manity. 1t could be no favor and no
kindness to permi, that class of popu.
Iation TO settle in the State under such
humliuting conditions, although they
may think otherwise; while it wond
be mos, serious injury TO US. We
have certainly the right TO prevent any
class of population from settling in our
State that NAV be deemed injurious to
our own society. Had they been born
here. and had acquired rights in conse,
quence, should not recommend any
measure TO expel them. They are mol
now here, except few, in comparison
with the numbers that would be here;
and The object i. TO keep them out.
therefore call your most serious atten.
ton to this subject, believing i, to be one
of the first importance

To his ExceIlency, J. Pinckney Hen
derson, Governor of Texas, Austin.
Sir: Your Letter of The 4lh January
last. did not reach this Department un.
I'll the lst instant. From the length of
time it has been on the way, it is rea-
sonable o infer that at its date you had
notseen the Presidents Message Of De.
cember last. In that you have already
perceived that New Mexico is at pre-
sent in the temporary occupation Of the
troops of the United States, and the
Government over it is military in its
character. 1t is merely such a Gov.
crnment as must exist under the laws
Of nations and of war, to preserve or
der and protect the rights Of the inhab.
itants, and will cease on the conclusion
of a treaty of peace with Mexico
Nothing, therefore, can be more certain
than that this temporary Government,
resulting from necessity, can never in.
Juriously affect the right which the
President believes to be justly asserted
by Texas, to the whole territory on this
side of the Rio Grande, whenever the
Mexican claim to it shal. have been ex.
ringushed by treaty. But this is sub
ject which more properly belongs to
the Legislative than to lhe Executive
branch of the Government.
