Polk's conscience here, Mr. Gwynne, has SAID that
Basby dare not vote against the House Resolutions
After the speech which he delivered, Il Is moIehy
impossible for him to vote tor H.


After Mr. Bagby had concluded. MI Bates OF
Massachusetts, and MIR. lnsraham OF Sermont rose
together The floor was yielded TO MI. I phah',
who made u very excellent speeca against Annex

Mr.. Bates then took the floor, and spoke III
about 10 o'clock when motion was made TO ad-
iourn. Upon this the Yeas aud Nays were ordered,
and II was los, by Il tie vote.

to be believed that no one else VIII speak, put
