passed by the Massachusetts L6gOature:
Resoled, That the annexation of Louis

the United States. It fornis a new. Con
fedeyaey to which the States united by the
former COMPACT, are not bount to ad

In this brief but Comprehensive resolu
tian is crammed the.whole
_State Rights
creed—the extreme State Rights creed.
The Government is pronounced a cenipset
between the - States; and from, it the right
of secession or withdrawal for just cause,
results as a necessary logical deduction.
The Federal clergy 9f Massachusetts
were.tifen also in the field, proclaiming
disunion; and some of therh recei‘leti the
thanks of 'the Senate for their traitorous
effusions.

1 John Quincy Admin., in describing the

says, among . other reasons for dissolving

following:
"That it is 'oppressive to the interests
and destructive to the influence or the
Northern •section of the .Confederacy,
I''"whose right and duty it Was Oere

and, to constitute one. of their owil:"I

I TheNew England people meditated Some
thing more monstrous and shocking.—
.
Says Mr. Adams:, ! .
•. That project (that of the CU'

length of fixing upon a militar3'leaderfor

stances of the time t never admitted f its
execution, nor its full deVelopentent, I bad
no doubt . in 1808 and in 1500, and lial;e
no doubt at this time, that it is the key to
all the great movements of these le:Oers
of the Federal paity in New England from
that time forward lill•the- - catastropl e in
the Hartford Convention.' •
In his celebrated letter upon the yart
ford -Convention of December 30th 1828,

Adams said , • ' ,
"This. design of certain leaders o the

THE WAR or 1812
Passing over many facts, for want of
space, we shall content Ourse4.es with a
reference to the followitt. , as denoting the
bostilitrof New England to the war of
181.1 which - it-deemed good cause for the
dissolution. of-the Union.,
The" Boston Sentidel, the' federal organ
as late as 1614, .Dec. 10th, said : "Those
who startle at the:danger of .a lseparation
tell . us.. that the soil of •New England is
hard and sterile." Again, .oz the 17th
'December ; 1814, the Sentinel sdi'd':."lt. is.
said that to Make a treaty, of ceommerdi.;
with the enemy is to violate the Constitu
tion -and to sever the tnion. ;Are.. they
not both already virtually destroyed?? or
in what stage of existence would they be,
should we declare a neutralitY or even
withhold taxes and men ?"
Here We have both secession, and nulli
fication proposed. But the Most mon
strous of all these , New Ifaigland seheines
is yetto come. It is :is followsi:
The object of the leading federalists in
Massachusetts during-the war, 'Was - to es
tablish - monarchy with one of i the royal
family.of England at its head. I . Mr. 'Wal
lis says the ; British Col. Nichols told him
the " Naval Commander had his orders to
place Harrison Gray Otis at the had ofal
fairs until the pleasure of the Prince Re
gent was known." •,
•
What that Pleasure was to be appears
'to have been already arranged. The Brit
ish United Service :Journal of ltay, 1850,
says the object was to " separate the nor
thern and eastern from the southern and
western States, to establish a limited mon
archy in -the first named StateS, placing
one of our princes of blood on thil, throne."
The black republicans, the successors of
.this 'party,-have now commencti.d a war
against the southern stateslor practicing
what `eel England had preached. Their
predecessors sustained' the resolution of
Jogiah Qttincy, in tile !alit war With Great
Britain, "that Lit it is not becoming a'inor.;
al and religious people to rejOiceover the
mere victories of war" while ttiey, with
singular perversitY, are now unwilling to
aid in preventing a fratricidal war.
THE 1N1I:1 . .171 . 0N OB TEXIE4
.Texas ivas from the first a roiik of of
fence to, New England. Mr. .Monroe,
who regarded our title as indiifputable,
was persuaded to give it up to F4pain Ly
the Treaty of Florida. The New England
men threatened dissolution shoitlll Texas
not be given up. Said Mr. Monroe, in one
of his letters on tids subject ;• "The diffi
cult.): is. 'altOgether internal,. :nt of the
most distressing nature and 'dangerous
tendency:
And What. Was the difficulty? The
eastern federalists .menaneed the Union. if
Mr. Monroe admitted Texas into the Un- .

menaces of disunion! J. Q. Adams was
in his Cabinet abd Inew the degigns of
the Boston federalistS. What Oreir de

• The difficulty about Texas ao e' aili, broke
out after the 'establiethinent of bek inde

afresh the sectionalise' and secessionism of
New England, and here we hatc . oinote
