a e.tar 0EI2gh Fsacu1fY 1917 that IN the
PHsdt1ss aHuGal message of December,
1856, you have already perceived that New
Mexto1 Is AZ present IN the Temporary occu-
patioa o 5he troops ofthe United States, aud
the government over il IS military in churac.
ter. I,smercly such a government as must
exist, under tie laws OF nations and OF war,
to preserve order and protect the rights OF
the inhabitancc, aud will cease on the con-
]clnsion OF a treaty OF peace with Mexico.
Nothing, therefore, can be more certain than
than this temporary government, resulting
from necessity, can never iniurlously affect
the right which the President believe to be
5 Justly asserted by Texas to the whole terri
tory on this side of the Rio Gronde, whcnev
er the Mexican claim to it shall have beer
( extinguished by treaty."
And, in 1s49, the Government treated thi
$ territory east Of the Rio Grande as sithin N
, limits Of Terds.
But within a year in face of all these fact,
/. the United States or rather some Of her states
e men, for her have asserted a title in this terri
e tory, and an officer of the United States arm
has called together a convention of the peopl,
0 formed a State, and the authorities of Texa
have been resisted,
n Now, who is to Judge of the title of Texas
e Shall that sovereign State, knowing Der 70
e mer authority, assert it still! Or is the Fede
/, al Government despot, a tyrant, before whol
d all rights of States are to bend in meek sui
mission! Shall it be t hat for it to assert a
n tie, is 10 make it good, though contrary to ju
tee aud to the vital rights of a State a Sta
whose rights should be as inviolable by Il
= Federal Government as the rights of that Go
,e eminent should be by a foreign powerl VIII
n a despotism is this about to enlhrall usl VIII
Is an over-powering tyrant is this about to enc.
,e Gle us in chains and compel us at its bidding
,e We are glad that Mr.. Fillmore is not Il
4. Government, He holds the sword, indeed b
h it is to execute the decision Of another trib
nal; in which, we hope, resides u clear
m sense ofthe rights ofTexas. The Federal &c
enmeuthas made a proposition to Texas, ant
Texas choose, let her give her assent; but /
to til that be done, Texas has the power o,
of these terrirories--a power she should {
tie force in spite of federal bayonets, Nor "
NJ she ask long nor in vain for the support fin
:, her sister States of the South,
A 1t appears TO us that this act Of Mr. Film,
is making common cause with Col, Mum
70 and recognizing the validity of the acts
these rebels, in an undue manner,
