Resolved, That we are.for our country— when she Sis right--that we are for her country nom, ItE4ESE WE BELIEVE HER TO BE RIGHT. Resolved, That the present war with Mexi co is 6n the vire of our Government, a war of dcfenec--ilft, by the force of-necessity and circumstances ; and thnt we will stand by the GciverumOt in the prosecution: of it, until an I hocorable;peace is secured— ..,hidetimity for the !past, al.dilectirity for the future," obtained. I Resolved, That deeply as we depbre war land its attendant horrors, we see no cause for t attachifigtame lo the present administration 1 on ac6 - euo of the war with Mexico is which tve, are now engaged. Resolvg That Mexico cotomenced the welt ' - by, Crossing Site gio Grinde and invading our Iterritory.

Such was Texas before "the annexa tion; such is Texas now—'4c,ras to the lao Grande. Resolved, That in them:leisure of annexa tion, neither the United States nor Texas cot:e mitted a wrong against Meariict). As tUroinde pendent republics, they liadithe :Tight to ar range their own affairs without inierferegee on the .part of other nationg„ln the act of an nexation, then, no riglirira.o violated—on the part of t'm ITuited States it icas but n just and riglitecius act. Yet it is said to be the tree cat of the war. Suppose 4to so, are we to lame for it? Are the; pectple of these States to be deterred from dOing What is right, because a neighbcging nation should please to arld' to the long catalogue of reurcicrs, robberies, insults and various other fro less infamous wrones, committed aftaicst our Government and her citizens, for-a long series; of years, another and a greater wrong No! ..No !,! " Let jus tice' be done, though the Heavens fall." Resolved, That we deprecate war in all its forms—we justify no War but that of necessity and defence—but there is a thing to be more dreaded, and which inflicts a deeper and a deadlier sting, than war its attendant horrors—it is dishonor and dis'grace. And we envy not 'that man or that party within our borders, who, influenced by party prejudice or political animosity, would now iuflict this great er evil upon ns. Resolved, That the charge of HMI. Henry Clay against his brother Whigs in Conzress who voted almost unanimously with the Demo crats, " that war existed by the act of Mexi co," that in so 'doing• they voted: "wkat they knew to be a lie," is a matter with which we have nothing to do. But we hr.pc for the hon or of the American name, 11;nd of humanity, that but few will I , e disposed to follow ti-c lead of those who, after baiting voted to send our b rave vddiers to the battle field—supplied them with the means to penetrate to the centre of the.enemy's territory—placed them within the reach of the lance and the lasso—where they are surrounded with hostilel foes—subjected theta to all the trials, expes6es- and dangers of a Soldier's life—now propose to withdraw from them the means of defending their lives, and. of protecting and sustaining their bodies against nakedness at.d starvation. t Resolved, That -4a the present war with Mexico, marked as ithas been thus far, by a • succession of brilliant victori&, and a continued series of successes, unparalleled in the history! of modern times—we are bound to reeognize the finger of an all-wise and over-ruling I dence,.' And we look forward to the time when • Mexico. under the spirit of light, liberty, and !knowledge—and ttle influetJce of Auto iran principles and manners, infused throughout her' borders, by means of that intercoUrse resulting fn m this war, will rise disenthralled from the bondage of vice, ignorance and: superstition, , which now grinds the :mass of her people, re during them to the level of slaves and be!... - rars. I Resolved, That we have etitirei confidence in the wisdom, prudence and integrity. of our present National Administration4—that in the; future history of this Government no past ad ministration will occupy a more honorable place, Or fill a brighter page, than that of .James K. Polk, President—James Buchanan Secretary of State—Robert J. Walker, Secretary of ti e! Treasurv—Wra. L. Marcy, Secretary of War: —John Y. Mason, Secretary of the Navv—and Cave Johnson, Post Master General. To the, wisdom, eneru, and foresight of the President' and his Cabinet, is the country indebted main- i iv, for a degree of prosperity seldom ii ever beL (ore enjoyed. Look where we will, there is a healthiness and energ3: pervading our whole' country, unparalleled in its historiy. And but for the war into which we bave • been forced, the Treasury has never been in a•better condi- Resolved, That as a measure of temporary, relief to the Treasury, for the purpose of sus- tai.iing the war, we prefer a, tax on tea and cuff'-e, to the adoption of a system of direct taxation—ia case either becomes necessary. Resolved, That we recominend the restora tion of the Postage law of IKIS, :5 - 6 far as re lates to the passing of newspape4 through the mails free, for all distances pot :exceeding 3(1 . miles from the office of publication. "And that for the purpose of enabling the Pbst Office de partment to sustain itself, aurto:,extend P.._o. accommodations among the Fieoplklre..recom mend a reduction of the weight 4f Haters es tablished by the present law,!onel half, retain ing the same rates of postage as Pow fixed. Resolved, That the DemOcraie, policy, as carried out by the Sub-treasary,iand Tariff of '46, is proved by the test of trial: and experi ence to be the true policy of Inur,!Government.: Every where are the beneficial effects resulting from the operation of those two great democrat ic measures seen and sacknoriledged. Resolved, That our confidence in the pres ent State Administration is unabated. Our Treasury is in a more Iburishing condition at this time than it has been for, years—our pub lic improvements appear to be prudently man aged, and a general healthiness pet Tides all the affairs of our Commonwealth. Rcsolred, That the sentiments of the late annual Message of 0-nv. Shut* to the Legisla ture generally meet our apprOval, and more es pecially those in reference to !Corporations and Banks. Resolved: That the patrietic ,sentiments of Gov. Toting, as expressed in his recent Mes sage to the Legislature of New York in refer ence to the Mexican war, are entitled to' all praise. Breaking forth ,as they ac from amid• the murky cloud of political treason which en shrouds a.large portion of his, own party, they shine with a brilliancy that oOmmands our ad-: miration. q P.
