_ that matter, but subject to the action ol
the treaty power. We all know lhol
there is but one power upon earth that
can clip a State of one tnch of her claitn;.
ed territory. and that is the treaty power.
Butthv-e no time to gointo tmtt qUt‘S

received Missouri; we received Ohio, and
Indiana and'illintds, ju.~t as he received
Texas. viz. with tlte boundaries presented
to us when they asked to be received.—
You knew these boundaries no better it hen
these States Were received than we knew
the; bounds of Texas when we rec'eivut
her. Yet this man Polk. notwithstanding
all this, had the audacity—aye. and that
too when Congress was in session—to
send Gen. Taylor from Corpus Christi to
the Rio Grande. Why dtd he do that
when Congress was in session? Why did
he like upon himself such a vast power?
The answer is very plain, and it is this .
No hostilities had yet taken place. and
therefore there was no need for the action
of Congress. The Executive is bound by
his office and his oath to maintain the
boundaries of every State, and he must
act up to the power conferred on him.—
Yet, in the face of day, though Memo
V had not engaged in any hostilities yet,
lhdre was no declaration of war, nor a
drop‘oi blood shed.. Yet this Vl’resitlt‘ltl
had the hardihood to protect'l'exas in her
boundartes ;.and he would havo been per
jored ii he ‘had not. That is what lte has
done; and tltis is the great ume of which
hevhas been guilty. This man Polk had
the audacity to order Gert. Taylor to atl
veoce to the Rio Grande. & that brought
on the war—a war wholly unconstitution
oi and against all right and honor and jus
tice. ~Why did he do that? Did we mn
i: Texas to the Nueces? Dtd we not
talie her with the Rio Grande lor her
boundary? The treaty power was the
on'ffth‘ing you held over her; and dtd not
Polk call upon her to settle the question
by this very power P But Herrera would
not sgreo to it. And was rt not on thstl
very ground that Parades rose and over
turned thc Government ol Herrera? l
have heron letter from Herrera. declaring
that it was on that very ground heuvcrr
turned his rival. The only power to set
tle the question of boundary was the trea
ty power. it any other power on earth
should dare to say to one oi the sovereign
States of this Uttton. you are comtng be"
yondyuur bounds—stand back ; tho nio
motd that should be done the Executive
is bound to sustain thc’Stale. Did this
' many Herrera declare that he clattned un
ly..to the Noreen? Did he not send an
army of fourteen thousand men. and did
not'Aroputlia land on the east bank of the
Del Nortc and order Gen. 'l‘aylor back
to the Nueces until the question ot boun
dary-should. be settled by negotiation P
Yet Mexico still claimed to too Sabine.
