:nloubled right to dispose of a part or the
- 1 le of her territory, and to merge the sox , -

I congratulate my country that by
-t.ict of the late Congress of the United States
anent of this government has been given
; and it only remains for the two
tr,tres to igree upon the term; to consum
e an al'vet so important to both.
I :re , arti the question of annciation as Lc
•piag. exclusively to the United States and
las. They are independent powers, corn
...ra to contract ; and foreign nations have
7i . .;ht to interfere wi h them, or to take ex
:'lons to their reunion. Foreign powers do
''Cm to appreciate the true character of
zovernment. Our Union is a confedera
• of independent States, whose policy is
!..;! With ea'uti other and all the world. To
,t
•e its limits; is to extend the dominion of
. e
ever the 'additional territories and in-
Jing millions. The world has nothing to
'from military ambition in our government.
the the cloieT magistrate and the popular
. of Congress are elected for short terms
' 4 e.pffrages of those millions who must, in
oti'n persons, bear all the burdens and
ries of war, our government cannot he
rvis e than pacific. Foreign powers.
ld,tberefore, look on the annexation of
.s to the United States, not as a conquest
nation seeking to extend her dominions by
and violence, but as the peaceful acquisi
,
of, a territory once her own, by adding
member to our confederation, with the
sot•of that member—thereby diminishing
t 7 '. - .aor..es of war, and opening to them new
er.l-increasing markets for their products.
Texan the reunion is important, because
"ring protecting arm- of our government
aetended over her, and the vast re-
E`g of her fertile soil and genial climate
be speedily developed ; while the safe-
New Orleans and of our whole sonth-
Mn frontier against hostile aggression, as
:Is the interests of the whole Union would
{'emoted by it.
,:the earlier stages of our national existence,
=;:,aion prevailed with some, that our sys
confederated States could not operate
oser an extended territory, and I
serious objections have, at different times, been'
to the enlargement of our boUndarres. These
objections were earnestly urged when we ac
quired Louisiana. Expefience has shown that
they were not well founded. The title of nu
merous Indian tribes to vast tracts of the coun-;
try has been extinguished. New Stotes have
been admitted into the Union; 'new Territo
ries have been created,and our jurisdiction and
laws extended over them. As our population
has expanded, the, Union has been cemented
and strengthened; as our 1 oundaries have been
enlarged, and our agricultural population has
been spread over a large surface, our federative
system has acquired additional strength and
security. It may well be doubted whether it
would not be in greater danger of overthrow if
our present population were confined to the
comparatively narrow limits of the original
thirteen States, than it is, mrw that they aro
sparsely settled over a more expanded territory.
Its confidently believed that our system may
be safely extended to the utmost bounds of our
territorial' limits; and that, as it shall be ex
tended, the bonds of our Union, so far from be
ing weakened, will become stronger.
None can fail to see the danger to our safety
and future [peace, if Texas remains an inde
pendent State, or becomes an ally or dependen
cy of some foreign nation more powerful than
herself. Is there one among onr citizens who
would not prefer perpetual peace 'with Texas,
to occasional wars, which so often occur be
tween bordering and independent nations! Is
there one who would not prefer free intercourse
w thtier, to duties on all our prnduc's and
manufacturers' which enter her ports or cross
her frontiers I
Is there one who would not prefer \ an unre
sticted communication with her citizens, to the
frtintier obstructions which' must occur if she
remains out of the Union! Whatever is good
or evil in the-local institutions of Texas, will
remain her own, whether annexed to the Uni
ted States or not. None of the present States
will be 'responSible for them, any, more than
they are for the local institutions of each other.
They:has; confedrated together for certain spe
cified objects. Upon the same principle that
they would refuse to form a perpetual union
with Texas, because of her local institutions,
our Wiathers would hate been prevented from
forming our present Union. Perceiving no va
lid objection to the measure, and many.reasons
for its adoption, vitally affecting the peace, the
safety, and the prosperity of both countries, I
shall on the broad principle which formed the
basis and produced the adoption of our consti
tution, and not in any narrow spirit of section
al policy, endeavor by all constitutional, hullo,
ral.le, and appropriate means to consurnate the
expressed will of the people and government
of the United States,. by' the re-annexation of
'Texas to cur Union, at the earliest practicable
eriod .
N'or will it become in a less degree my duty
to assert and maintain; bv all constitutional
means, the right of the Tinted States to that
1 portion of our territory 4'hich lies beyond the
Rocky mountains. bur title to the country of
the Oregon is "clear and unqesttonable ;" and
already are our people peparirig. to perfect that
title by occupying it with their wives - and chil
dren. But eighty yearS ago, our population
was confined on the west by the ridge.of the
Alleges. Within that period—within the
lifetime might say, of Some of my heaaers=
our pe, increasing to many millions, have
filled the eastern valley of the Mississippi; ad
venturously ascended the Nlissouri to its head
springs ; and are already engaged in establish
ing the blessings of self-government in valleys,
of which the rivers flow, to the Pacific. The
World beholds the peaceful triumphs of thein
dustry of our emigrants. To es belongs the'
duty of protecting them adequately wherever
they may be upon our Oil. 'Pile jurisdiction
of our laws. and the benefits of our republican
'institutions, should be ; . extended over them in
the distant regions which they have selected
fo'r their homes. The increasing facilities of
intercourse mill easily bring the States, of
w:iich the formation in that part of our territo
ry cannot be longer delayed, within the sphere
of our federative Union. In the moan time,
every obligation imposed'hy treaty or Conven
tional stipulations should be sacredly respected.
In the management of our foreign relations,
it will be my aim fo observe a. careful respeCt
for the rights of oilier naticns, while out own
will he the subject of constant watchfulness.—
Equal and exert justice should characterize all
our intercourse with foreign countries.
_All
alliances having . .a tendecy to jeopard Lite-wel
fare and honor of our coatry, or sacrifice any
one of the national interests will be studiously
c ,
avoided ; and yet no O s pportunity will be lost
to cultivate a foreign governments by which
our navigation and commerce may be extend- .
rd, and the ample products our fertile soil, as
well as the manufactures; of our skilful artisans
find a ready market stud remunerating prices 1
in foreign countries.
In " care that the , laws he faithfully
executed," a strict performence of duty with be
exacted from all publie officers. From those
officers, especially, who are charged with the
collection and disbursement of the revenue, will
prompt and rigid accountability be required.
Any culpable failure or delay on their part to
account for the moneysZintrusted to them, at
the times and in the manner required by Iriw,
will in every instance, terminate the official
connexion ofrsuch defaulting officer with the
government. '
Although:in our country, the chief magis
trAe must almost of necessity be chosen by a
party, and stand pledged to its principles and
measures, yet in his official action, he should
not be the President of a pan only, but of the
whole people of the United States. While he
executes the laws with an impartial hand,
shrinks from no proper responsibility, and
faithfully carries oat in the executive depart
ment of the government to the principles and
policy of those who have chosen him, he should
not be unmindful that our fellow-citizens who
have differed with him in opinion are entitled
to the full and free exercise of their opinions
and that the rights of all are entitled to respect
and regard.
Confidently relying upon the aid and oasis
tanrd of the co-ordinate departments of the go:
vernment in condcuting public affairs, I enter
upon the discharge of theltigh duties which
have been assigned me by the people, again
humbly supplicating that Divine Being who
has watched over and protected our beloved
country from its infancy to the present hour, to
continue His gracious benedictions upon us,
that we may continue to be a prosperous and
happy people.
