Where and constantly:victorious Flew did' wra det involved in this war? It was' predicted' as the,-conse quence of the itttheratiefi - OtTexas to the U nited Skates. I . f we h . - adnot Texp t sivve should e havnowar. 'tbe people were told that ii that itveiit happened War would °nide. They' Were yd that the 'between -1 4- e7rart and Mexico had.not been.ternainated by a treaty of .peace; that Mexico still claimed 'Texas as a revolted provindei and that,, if we received Texas in our Union, we took along . with her, the witr'exisfing between her and Mexico.— And MO Minister nflt4exico formally unnoti ced to the ,itvviti-rim.nt at Washington, that his nation would consider the annexation-of Texas to the United States-as prOducing state of war. But.all this was denied by-the partizans of annexation. They •insisted we should have no war, and even imputed 'to those who, foretold sinister motives - - for their grountliess Prediction. But not withstanding a-state of - virtual-war necessarily resulted from the fact of annek'a tion of one of the t helligerents to' the United Stales, actualloatilities might have beenfie bably averted by prudence, moderation and . wise statesmanship. If General Taylor had been permitted . to .remain, where his own good sense prOmpled him to remain, at the the point-of Corpus Christi, and if a negot'a tion had been opened with Iclexicoon a true spirit of amity . and conciliation ..war possibly might have been prevented. But instead of this pacific and moderate course, .whilst Slidell was bending his'way to Mexico, with his diplomatic credentials, General Taylor was ordered to transport his cannon, and to plant them.in a warlike attitude, opposite to Matamaras, on the east bank of the Rio Bra-' ffsiovithinahe_veryklisputedterritory,.the ad-, 1 justment of which was to be the object • of Mr. SlidelPs mission, .What ' else • could have transpired but a conflict of armsl Thus the war commenced, and the'Presi dent, after havin,,, ,, produced it, apPealed to Congress, A bill was proposed to raise 50, 000 volunteers; and in order to commit all who should vote for it a preamble was inser ted falsely attributing the commencement of the war to the act of Mexico. I have no doubt of the patrlotic motives of those who ; alter struggling to divest the bill of that fla• grant error, found themselves constrained to vote for it But I must say that no earthly consideration would have ever tempted or provoked me to.vote Lora bill, with a palpa ble falsehood, stamped on-its face.

But,.if the President should decline or -reiu'ia to-do so, and i -in contempt of the preme authority of Congress, should:perse vere in waging the war, for other objects than thoileproolaimed by Congress,. then it would be the imperative duty of that body to vindicate its authority by the most string ent ang 'effectual and appropriate measures. And, if, on the contrary, the enemy should refuse to conclude a treaty, containing stipu lations secusing,,the objects, designated by Congress, it would beeonne the duty • of the whole government to prosecute the war,with .all the national energy, until these objects were attained by a treaty of e eace. There can be no insuperable difficulty in Congress making such an mithomtiye declaration,— Let it resolve simply, Mantic war shall, of shall not be a war of conquest, and, it a war -of conquest, what islo conqured. Should a iesolutiompass, disclaiming-the design of oonciaest,.peaeb would follow in less- than - sixty days. if the -President would &inform . to his'constitutional duty. Here fellow citizens, I might pause, haw inglitlfeeted a mode by which the ration, through its accredited and legitimate repro sisotatir-e-s-is Congress, can annoance . lor what purposes and objects this. war shall be longer prosecuted; - and can thus let the whole people of the United States know for what end their blood is to be tardier shed, - and their:tinisures further . Oftiended,instoad of thelcnowledge of it being locked up . innt concealed hrthe bosom of one than. We should no longer perceil/0 the objects of the war varying ' from time to lime, according to the changing opinioni? of the Chiel IWagis rale charged with its prosecution. But I ;lo not think it right to stop here. It is the priv ilege of the people, in. their primitive assem blies, and of every pivot() man, however, humble, to express un opinion in regard to the purposes for Which the war should be continued, and such an expression will re ceive just so much consideration and cbnse quence as it is entitled to, and no more. Shall this war be prosecuted for the pur pose of conquering and annexing Mexico, in all its boundless extent, to the United States? I wilt novattribute-to the, President of the United States any.such clesign, but ,I confess I. have enAhocked. and alarmed by .mani lestatiOriPtif it ld various - titiarters. Of all the dengeiffilitt Misfortunes which could bc fal this' nation, I should regard that of its be coming a warlike and conquering power the most direful and fatal.

All the nations, tippreli3:oll, look upon lis t in The prosecution of the prre.nit war, as being actuated by a spirit orrapheity, and an inordinate 'desire J;ir territorial aggrandizement.= Let us not forfeit altogether their good opinion. Let us command their applause by a noble 'exercise of forbearance and justice. In the elevated 'station which we Id, can safely aflord to practise the God ' a virtnes_otmoderatien and magnanimdy.

To us they might prove a fatal acquisition, produ-: sing distraction, dissension, division, possi bly disunion. Let therefore the integrity of the national mtistencc and national territo ry of Mexico remain undisturbed.. For one, I desire to 'see no part of her territory torn -from her by war. . Sortie of our people have placed their heads upon the acquisition of the Bay of San Francisco in Upper. California. • To us, as a great mainline Power, it Might prove to be of advantage hereafter in respect to our com mercial and navigating interest?: To Mexi eo,.which can never be a great maritime Power, it carrnever be of much advantage. If we can obtain it by a fair purchase with a just equivalent, I stiould-ba happy to see it thus acquired. As, whenever ' the war cea ses, Mexico might to be required to pay the debts due our citizens. perhaps an equivalent for thatdiay may be found in that debt, our Government assuming to: pay the debts due our citizens whatever portion of it may bd applied lo that object. But it should form nomolive in the prosecution of the war; which !.would not continue a pfmgle hour for . the sake of that harbor. • Bet what ;t will be asked, Shall we make peace without any indemnity for the expen ses of the war? It the published documents in relations to the Info negotiations between Air. Trist and the Mexican Commissioners bebrue and I have not seen-them -anYwhere ' contradicted, the Executive propetly waived any demand of indemnity for the expense of the war. And the rupture of that negoti ation was produced, by out Government in statingtipocti-s-easitln—from-111-c-kictirth strip of mostly barren land between the Nue cos and the Rio Bravo int New Mexico,. which D.:lexica refused to make.!
