Mr. lgoorehead,addressed the Commit

tied one of the ablest speeches ut the
upti the subject of Annexation.
A crowded house was in attendance and
the speech sllloll^ the masa of of persons
in the gallery pro tined a decided tinpres-
Alan upon the hearers. Ile denied that
Texas was an independent tarei , ii nation,
u.I the best pi out of it. was (hat Texas
watt always claiming help. The Joint
liesulutions of the House were ujection•
aJle tipthi many gruaiiils, whica were
voluted nut at lu iigth by die speaker.
Ile could tiot equsent to annex Texas
because he hull constitutional ohjections,
but without them he could not cutisent to
annex Texas unless the ccnsent of Mexico
WAS given. Least of all could he consent
to annex fareiAri terriiiiry to the Union by
a large inaj.iiity of votes. 'this step was
• taken to perpetuate the Institution of Sit

A very 'able Constitutional argunit nt
followed and one which c ttttt twinkled thy•

with which the argument was concluded.
MIL RlVin.
The following sketch of the speech of
111 r. Itivis is hour the correApundent of
the Newel k Advertiser.
Mr. It. looked back, aiirl called upon
•Seniirors to look back stilt to the po
sition in which the questimi stood at the
adoptiurr of the Constitution. At that
tinie there were but two classes of polit
ical corporations with the Federal Con.
federacy—States and Territories. The
provisibn of the Constitution authorizing
the'adMission of new States, was content
pluted by the framers uf that instrument
as applying solely to adriission of the in
terior class of these corporations, to the
priydeges and securities of tl.e higher
class, as States (at the time of the excer
cise of such act of admission) %chitin the
jurisdiction of the Federal Uovernment.
This clause of the Constitution author
izing the admission of new States, Mr.
R. urged, wig inverted with the express
design of applying to the northwestern
territory of Virginia—the county of Au
gusta, then a part of Va. but now the
State of Ky.— the county of Frankland,
now the State of Tennessee—the Statii
of Vermont, then a part of N. Y..—the
State of Maine, then apart of Moss &c.
flee. It was with the view of providing tor
these contingencies that the clause in the
Constitution for the admission of new
States was t:tere incorporated. Ile re•
prated that it had tilt application whatever
to the admisssion of foreign States—but
applied exclusively to territory within the
jurisdiction at . the United States at the
time of the act of such admission us
States into the Federal Union.
Mr. It was particularly happy in his
occasional illustrations of the effect of
literal constructions of law. Ile had
learned that a literal construction of
law, an act, or a clause thereof, was the
most mischievous and inconsistent in its
Operations. Ile adduced in illustration,
the anecdote of the literal construction of
an old Spanish law, which enacted that if
any man should draw blood in the public
street, lie should starer the penally of
death. A surgeon accordingly, Under this
act, having bled a man in the street who
had fallen in a fit of apoplexy, was seized
and subje-ct,(l in the penalty ofits literal
appl:catom. '1 he Lxample was applied
to tile literal constructiev given by Mr. Bu•
chanan, to the clause in the Constitution
that new Slates may be atltnittid into the
Unitni, in his argument of yesterday.
The concluding portion of Mr. Hives'
ii?gument and was dee'ply impres
sive and particular ly eloquent. I will
nut atiemitt to follow him to iher, as it
mily impairs the torte and (fleet of the
speech itsoll; I would Lot detract from
its superior s, but merely request
hat you will give to the readers of the
Daily the benefit, as it will afford them the
plonoure, of pet u,ing that .111.illingly ef•

At the Cunclusiuti of Mr. a's speech
the Senate adjourned.
MR. CHOATE.
•:IJIr. C. discussed tile question is ith the
peculiar gravity and solemnity fur which
he is MU distinguished. Ile deilied that
those who opposed annexation were fanat
ics or abolitionists. They were, upon the
contrary, Unionists." Constitution
alists," men who believed there NUS no
power to do what was attempted, and who
loved Ihe Union as it was, rather than that
extension of it which was to endanger the
Union forever. Nor was Texas necess
ary to us has been stated. It was neither
necessary to the peace of the Union, or to
its pi otection in case of danger from
abroad. It t 1 as no more necessary to US than
Canada, w hich was also upon our hot dos,
--iu truth, no more necessary to us than
the Ciliary lslauds ur Cape tie Vents.
France lived ha, moniuusly within a
cannon shut of EngLnil, Austria anti
Russia were near together, and did but
quarrel. All European nations were those
of neighborhood, and there were no diffi
culties in consequence that warranted us
to apprehend any dif f iculties from having
a republic un out border. It would be sin
gular indeed if such a power as Texas
could not barnt wously agree with us,
and be rather• a fricLdly than a ri ial
power.
The Constitutional power was discusi•
ed and illustrated at length. A great
deal of cotemporary history was brought
to bear upon the clause of the Constitution
Shich is claimed as authority for admit
ting new states into the Union. Mr.
Choate desired that the whole clause
should be read, that the history should be
brought to bear upon the suhject —the
meaning of the trainers of the Constitus
thin and the writers of the clause in goes.
Iron. It all these tests were applied,
would come home to the cum action of
t•very candid and intelligent mind, that
the power to admit new states had refer.
once only to territory in and of the Union.
Maine was a part ut Massachusetts when
the Constitution wit, adopted. Vermont
was a part of New Hampshire and New
York.
There was a brood of States in embryo
in the North Westelli territory, and it
wee in reference to these that the power
to admit new States into the Colon was
given. The burden of proof that foreign
States could be admitted into the Union
rested with the other side, add there had
heen no shadow of evidence given, either
historical, political or other, that the fru
niers of the Constitution meant that there
was power to admit new States by Con
gress. Gentlemen were compelled to ad
mit that the clause in question did dot re•
fer to what was then the tel of the
United States, and they must turtme the
Constitution into what it did not mean, it
they asked,ioure. The debates upon the
Constitution were (looted to show that his
views wet e those of the frankrei of the
Constitution.
- -
Opinions were freely quoted to show
that the cbunnentators upon the Constitu..
tion entertained the opinion that he had
advanced. As boon us the Constitution
was adopted jealousy began to exist in re
gard to the growth of the different sec
tions of the country. There were jealous
ies against the admission of Vermont in
the South, and a desire that Southern
States should grow up as fast as those in
the East. All of these objections had a
reference to the territory as it was in the
Union, and not to a foreign State like
Texas. Jealousies between the North
and South, the Western and Atlantic
States, were quite as sharp then as they
are now. It would have been deemed a
gross infraction of the Constitution in the
early history of the Government to at
tempt what was now thought can be dune.
In regard to Canada, there was a standing
ifrovision, unanimously adopted, that they
should come into the Umon, but for all
other colonies a vote of two thirds w e r e
deemed necessary, and the only manner
in which it :could be done at all was by
treaty, and nut by a mere act of Congress,
as was attempted in the act submitted for
the consideration of the Senate. The Nt
gunient of the Senators Irmo Va. and Ky.
(Mr. Rives and Mr. Morel ad,) were un
answerable.
Mr. Choate addressed himself in reply
io Mr. Woodbury, in consrq6ence of hie
upon 51assacl:usetts.
The ua, motion ur
Henderson.
MR. HENDERSON AND MR. BAR
hOW.
We attach the notice of the speech of
Mr. Henderson in fry''r of the resolutions,
who is a 'southern ; and Mr. Harrow,
a southern 11 hg, io opposition.
The orders of the day were called for
at an early hour. and Mr. I letiderson ad
dressed the Senate at length upon the
Texas question, against the motion to
postpone, and in favor of the Resolutions
before the Senate. Mr. lleutlerson is a
Whig member lions Mississippi, but quite
as watin an advocate for annexatioh as
his colleague (Mr. Walker.) He had no
scruple as to the power of Congress to
mines Texas, and lie derived his ophileti
hum the clause to admit new stales.—
lle thought the contemporary history a 9
connected with the Constitution had not
been altogether fairly represented, and
maim; was clearer in his view than the
power t o admit Texas as a Sta'e. Mr. 11.
dr ni'eti that the Resat' winos frirm the
Ilmise were a treaty in disguise, or that
the clause to admit new States had refer
ence to territory in the Union. lie de
nied also that Congress could acquire
territm y. The power with whom
it was I, ft to declare war he thour,ht could
acquire ter t itory. It was contended too,
that North Carolina and Rhode Island
wt re as mut h lot eign tel litory as ally
other Mates. Mr. 11. bent so far as to
say that Congress could to-morrow ad in it
Texas it her representatives were here
with their credentials. The relations of
Mexico to Texas presented no obstacles
to annexation. lie regarded the treaty
of the last session As canstitu bona!, and
the bill of the !louses as also consti
tutional, but prtferi eJ an act of Corgras
to a treaty.
Mr. Barrow of La. promptly replied to
Mr. Henderson. Dis speech was 'rank,
manly, temperate and dignified. Ile was
ready to meet it fully in the face, and
scorned to t hritik in any mant►er from
responsibility that rested upon him. Ile
denied that the People of the Union at
the recent elections decided in favor of
the annexation of Texas. Ile referred to
the election of Gov. Wright in New Yolk,
a Senator who toted against the Texas
treaty, and who was so notoriously against
annexation. Did the people of New
Yin k, in electing Mr. Wright, decide in
favor of the annexation of Texas 1 They
did not make this a test question at the
North, and it was repeatedly and publicly
denied that it was so.
Mr. Barrow then went into au examine •
lion of the register of debates to show that
the views he entertained were those bi the
framers of the Constitution. Let gentle
men beware, said he, how tl.ey claim fur
Congress powers which the Constitution
has transfetred elsewhere.
Mr. Barrow then denit d tl•,at annexa
tion was just in the manner proposed.--
It was nut just because it was in violation
of the Constitution, nor was it an expedi
ent measure to his consti.uents. Mr. B.
here entered,upon a practical argument
to show the effects of annexation upon the
raising of sugar and cotton. All its rt.
reefs lie considered disastrous to the %Yd.
fare of the Southern country.
Mr. Barrow is speaking as I close.—
Ins speech has Canlllllltided great atten
tion, and was as pattiutic as it was just
.►nd dignified.
