 Hon. Linus Child, member of the Mas sachusetts Senate, said :"if Congress passed aa act apaeriag 1cfas, Il atoatd 6e the dttty of Massachusetts 10 consider H no act, and ieat jt dS null aad g0id

 The language of Mir Child and his assoel- les is so nearly a copy of that used by the leading federaIists ol Massachusetts inregard 10 the annexation of Louisiana, that il should be recuned to- In 18f1, ill the debate in Congress on admitting Louisiana, Josiah Quincy, of Boston, said

 This was the text, the comment, and only the defercd conclusion ot the recent dis union convention

 Mr Senator Child said that what was next to be done, s'he would not think oi, not speak of, much less propose '' but he did say that if Texas was annexed, ..he 1roRld nerer per mil Massachusetts 10 consider Il faw.22

 Judge Allen emphatically said, sthjs con- reHioa eas not 10 stop here - and the ad- dress of the convention denounees annexa- ton "as He oeeff1foae of fle eoastitMioa.o

 The only check to the avowal of immedi- ate, instead of ulterior, uullitication, was the fear that it would alarm the other States, and prevent the geographical pdrtg, the northern contederalioa, the sectional conspiracy against the Union, which the more ambitious leaders of the Boston federal school hope to form out ol the supposed disafIecton ol portion of the Democrats in some of the free State 10 the plan of annexation that has passed the Iiouse.

 Mr. C. F. Adams told the Garrison dis unionists that they must keep back the real design for the present; that in order to ren- der opposition to 1t intellectual, the eonven- ton must take care to adopt measures npon which the mass of the population ol the free States could be brought to eoneentfate Mf. Phillips, of Salem, formerly member of Congress, held Garrison and his friends back, only because he wished first ssto mate aaaP. peal 10 the free States of poteniial c0'cacy, '0 afoH5e Item 10 ( sense of the daagef of He country and Me dufy of tbe cou5ry.n

 Judge Williams, the presiding officer, de- clared ssthat aaaeratioa Threatened cipH aear,n (which, of course, could only come by the North making war on the South, and he called upon the people of the North to de- nounce this measure, and demand of our rn- lers 10 pause in their career.

 This is precisely the language of the Hart ford-convention school, with which the ven erable judge was so familiar when federal member oi the legislature in lSl4.

 And all the foregoing strong givings-out of notification and disunion came not from the mal-cap, out-and-out ultras and abolitionists of the convention, but from the gfavest, so- berest, and highest officials aud members of the whig party proper

 But to confirm this notification and anti union position of the whgs of Massachusetts, We have the striking fact that this abolition convention was dissolved on the 30th of Jau- uarv, and on the neat day Mir. Bell, of Bos- ton, chairman of the judiciary committee in the House, followed 1t up in the legislature by a report from the Texas committee, which concludes with the significant resolve that

 'As the powers of legislation granted in the constitution of the United States to Con- gress do not embrace the case of the adms- sion of a foreign State or territory by legisa- lion into the Union, saeh aa act of admission wopid hare no b,adiag force 1chatcrer on tte people qf Massachusetts 3

 This is full response to the direct and unconcealed avowaIs of the real design of the anti-Texas convention by the extreme, but more honest members of ii, such as Garri- son, Lovejoy, May, and liussey-viz "that, if Texas was annexed, the Union being sub- yerted, Ii wonld cease to exist, and the law of nulliiieation would be null and void - "tbat the aer step 1sas 10 call q coareafioa for the formation of q aev Union witt saeh lStateS as do no, tolerate siarcry.

 Saeh Is the now clearly defined position of the Massachusetts wings ill regard to this They arc only waiting for Texas to come in, to go out themselves.
