The next resolution is an effort to sympathisc with
the friends of liberty in Tie Old World, concluding
with pueical eAtr ct exhorng them To = 6ide their
time This will he cold comfort from a party that
is SO very fearful IF offending foreign nations.
The next resolution invites the oppressed Of
Eurnpc to c,me over here for asylum and home
under this gloriuus administration of Zachary Tay
from the Native American party. We bid a hearty
welcome to all who seek asylum Shores"
says The resolution, and you may have equal Privi
eges, afier tweniy-one years residence!
The next two resolutions affirm the doctrines of the
Wimot proviso; but these have been thrown over
board by General Taylor, in his late message, they
will no doubt be expunged in the next editoiof this
volume of resolutions. ~
The last resolution winds up with n long extract
from President Tayors annual message, in relation
to the Union, the only obvious meaning of which is,
ttat he will bring TO his aid all Constitutional pow
ers " for its defence-evidenily meaning the army
and navy, which are under his control in certain
emergencies.
The length Of the resolutions prevents any CON-

ammunition during the coming They not
only make the election Of members Of the Legisla-

These resolutions emanate from the whig members
of the Indiana Legislature, and have been published
throughout the State the regular manifesto of the
whig party, which, party, they are deter

the Democratic party will meet them at their word,
or by a different course, enable the wings to worm
themselves into Stale Convention, and thus place

o. The press of the country are enarging to some
extent upon the controversy urged with great zeal by
the people of Texas against the general government
about the territory of New Mexico claimed by both.
1t is rather unnatural dispute, and should like
to sec it settled amicaby. We inclined TO the
belief it would be well to allow The claim Of Texas,
if that State will agree to protect it's territory from
the Indians, and give the people of Santa Fe the ben
eft Of good government. We think, however the
claim of Texas is not very powerful one. She did
claim TO the Rio Grande, including Santa Fe, while
republic. But did she enforce that claim ltseems
to very idle proceeding TO assert claim of con-
quest which cannot be maintained by force of arms,
and the experience furnished by the late is toler
ably convincing proof that the claim of Texas to San
ia Fe would have been nothing but claim for some
time, if the United States had not stepped in and
forced the acknowledgment from Mexico. Never
theless, should have objection to see Texas
cure the new State even now. Texas may then be
divided, in time, and we shall have another good
southern State. In the hands Of the United Stetes,
the territory in dispute will not for long time pay
the expenses of government; while in the hands of
Texas, with cheap municipal county government,
it may do very well. So without being so tenacious
about the mere right of the thing should like to
the difficulty settled before suggested. Besides,
the Texans brave people, ever ready to defend
our border territory, and should be dealt with hand
somely.-Ky. Yeolndn.
