decided. Congress has no right to put one of
the parties to the contest in better condition to
litigate, than ii Is in at present. The Supreme
Court doubtless has authority to determine the
boundary between two States, but Congress
has no such power Neither has it power to
curtail the boundaries established or claimed by
any one State II is expressly prohibited from
interfering, by the formation of new States,
with the admitted jurisdiction OF one Of the
States For the same reason, it is equally in
competent to interfere, in that mode, with the
asserted Jurisdiction Of such States. It can
only decide the question Of juFbdiction by the
consem of the State through its Legislature.
Without that consent, it is unquestionably the
duty OF Congress, TO keep its hands oil. II the
United States, as the proprietor of the public
domain, be incompetent Gas some contend) to
sue Texas in the Supreme Court for the dis
puted territory, Congress has no authority to
help the incompetency by bestowing upon the
people, who live there, the functions of State
organization and the capacity of bringing suit
The second clause Of the Sd section, 4th ar
ticle of the Constitution strongly sustains this
view, by its provision that nothing in the Con-
stitution shall be so construed as to prejudice
the claims of the United States any particular
State AS Congress derives its authority solely
from the Constitution, it is, of course, governed
by this restriction. And it can scarcely be con-
tended that making New Mexico State would
not prejudice the claims of Texas. If so, we
should not see the North so gladly welcome the
late intelligence from Santa Fe.--Richniond

UNITED STATES HOTEL,

SUMMER AUGMENTATION III SO r

SUMMER ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 81 5O PER DAY.
TNHE subscriber respectfully informs the public
that from the first of July the price of board
WILDE reduced from 20 to VI SO per day and at
the same time offers the same inducements as here
tofore Ito travellers and persons visiting Washing
ton, as regards accommodations aid the determi
nation Of the proprietor to please his guests.
The United States Hotel is most conveniently
situated, being on Pennsylvania avenue, and with
in two minutes walk Of the railroad depot, and
five minutes walk Of the Capitol. The hotel is
large, capable of accommodating one hundred and
forty persons, airy and comfortable. The furni-
ture was all entirely new last fall, and the arrange
ments Of the hotel generally are such as will give
satisfaction.
The, object of the proprietor in reducing the
price of board is to induce fair share Of patron
age; and he will at the same time assure the COM
munity that his table will be as well furnished,
his servants as attentive, and the accommodations
Of his house generally shall equal at least the other
hotels, which charge ~ per day.

and steamboat wharf to convey baggage to the

We referred incidently, yesterday, to the fact
that tile organization of a State government in
New Mexico, according to the proposal Of Col.
Munroe's late Convention, would be in direct
conflict with an express provision of the Fed
eral Constitution. AS we deem the point one
Of very serious Importance, we now cite the
provision alluded to in full: a< b
article IT,, section g. New States may be adj
mItted by the Congress into this Union but no
nep State shall be formed erected Uihin the j.is-
diction Of any other State any State be form
ed by the junction of two or more States or parts
of States, ,cithom the consent Of tho Legislatures Of
the States concerned, as well as of the Congress
The Congress shall have power to dispose of
and make all needful rules and regulations respect
ing the territory or otherproperty belonging to the
United States; and nothing ia this Cor,stiiuaion
shall be SO construed as to prejudice amy claims of the
United States or any particular State. 1-r..
1t is distinctly declared in this section, that no
neao State shall be formed or erected ui,hin The ill.,
risdiction Of any other State. Those who hold,
as the Richm6nd Wing does, that all that part
of New Mexico which lies east of the Rio
Grande, now pertains to Texas, by virtue of
the acts Of the Federal Government, cannot
deny that the State Of New Mexico, which
would be formed and erected by Congress CIV
ing its assent to the State Constitution adopted
by the Santa Fe Convention, would be formed
and erected vithin the Jurisdiction of Teras.
They are, therefore, bound to admit that the
Federal Constitution expressly forbids Congress
to sanction the formation Of the proposed State.
The section above quoted is equally cogent
against the admission of New Mexico as a
State, in the view of those who think the bound
airy claim of Texas fair question of dispute.
The territory claimed by Texas, East of the Rio
Gfande and North of the boundary proposed by
the Committee of Thirteen, is estimated, in their
report, to contain about $4,000 square miles.
Mr.. Benton asserts, with the advantage of forty
years study Of Humboldt, that the United States
now hold possession of 10000 square miles
South of the committees line, which belongs to
New Mexico just as much as the territory North
of the line. The us pendens between Texas
and New Mexico, applies therefore, to $4,000
square miles of territory. The Santa Fe Con-
vention held upon this disputed ground, and
consisting of delegates elected chiefly by popu-
lation inllabiting il, has formed plan of State
government and transmitted il to Washington
for acceptance. Many may think the claim of
Texas to jurisdiction over this territory, of
doubtful validity, but none can deny that it is
urged upon grounds which are at least plausible
and worthy Of respectful consideration.
We contend that 1t would be gross viola-
ton Of the spirit Of the constitutional guaranty,
TO erect q State government upon the disputed
territory, before the question Of jurisdiction y

vance. ,,.
The publishers of the SOUTHERN QUARTERLY
REVIEW beg leave to entreat the attention of the
public to that Work, to return thanks for the in
variable indulgence which has smiled upon its
progress hitherto, and to express the hope that
this countenance will not be withdrawn now that
the publication, passing from the hands of the
former publisher into their own, Makes as it
were, a fresh start in the pursuit of well known
PROCESS. They cannot allow themselves to doubt,
that-with all their former contributors, with the
addition OF many new ones, not less valuable and
distinguished the conduct still Of Mr.. w.
GILMORE SIMMs, its sole Editor during the past
year-and with the assurance which the subscri-
bers now beg leave to give, that the work will be
henceforward issued in a style very superior to
that Of the past, on better paper, with fine new
type, and with regard to peatness and finish,
which will leave it second to none in the countrv-
they will continue to receive that patronage which
their own endeavor and the claims Of such am or
gan seem reasonably to demand.
The writer's for the REVIEW include the greater
number of the best and ablest names of the
country. They represent the highest literary
talent OF the South, and reflect truly, with a ma
1--WE earnestness, force, and fidelity, the real pol
ICY and the peculiar institutions of our section.
We entreat the people of the South, who feel
the Importance of such periodical as the Review,
to excuse its deficiencies, and generously lend
themselves to its assistance. With their counte-
nance and concurrence, it can become the estab-
lished organ Of domestic opinion-the champion
Of our rights and character abroad-the guide and
counsel to intellectual progress and proper taste
at home---the arena in which the better minds Of
the country may always distinguish themselves,
and find the proper provocation to execution and
performance--the wholesome authority to which
we may always turn for the correction and re-
straint of crude and undigested speculation These
are all objects of the last necessity to civilized
people, who have anything to gain by enterprise,
or any thing to lose by remissness and indiffer-
ence. Once more, we ask from the patrons of the
Review, indulgence for the past, and such SYM
pahy and support for the future, are due to the
character which ii seeks to establish.
