But we protest altogether against your notion OF
an equitable settlemeutof tie Slave question: by
acquiring Foreign territory 10 make Slave States of,
ii order to balance all the Free States that may
grow mp within our borders. Yen talk as though
Freedom and Slavery were conditions equally ne
cessary equally deserving Ger National protection,
and to be kept in everlasting balance, like day and
night Horrible doctrine! Who could have e.-
pected TO hear !; from ihc lips Of protesting Demo
Gratis il the Nineteenth Century The only equi-
table settlement of the Slave Question tha. We can
imagine Is the ultimate and peaceful emancipation
OF the Slaves.


.. Safe and permanent Southern boundary
U1ae2 Is Ii the actual or the claimed boundaTyl
Do We take only old Texas OF half OF Santa Ee,
Coahuila, and slice OF Chihuahua? Is a rivsr
safe and permanent boundary?' We haze such
one now.-Mexico will consent, will sne Let US
wal, and see.-N'ho Is to extingulsh the Indian
tilles?' Titles o. ,chat indians And what is TO
ne done with the Indians themselves! Must not
they be extingujshed well as their titles?


3. AS to the carrying trade'-Is our Free Trade
neighbor coming over TO the exploded doctrines
of monopoly and resirictlon?' 1t looks Ike IL
Bu, he talks ike novice at IT. How our Shipping
is injured by allowing Foreign nation TO hre
its carving done by whoever will carry cheapest
does not appear.


4. We don't know 2bout the great market for our
Manufactures TO be opened in Texas. We sus-
pect Ohio will take and pay for more IN one year
than Texas in three. II Texas is TO buy vastly
more, must be because Of the emigration thlther
of our People, and what they bay there will newt
ably be so much sub,racied from the aggregate that
would else have been bought here. Scattering a
population already sparse ours increases neI-
ther its production nor its consumptlon.-And DO
not all know that the power Of Texas will al al
times be exered in hostility 10 our Home M:nuiac-
lures, and in favor Of low Tariff AS TO our
Agriculture generally, Texas viii Of course be lis
rival rather than It's customer.


). We extend, enlarge and spread the doctrines
aud principles of our free institutions, Life, Llber-
ty aud pursuit of happiness" Wretched, wretch
ed can't Texas is TO be great S1are country-a
market for the Slave breeders Of our Older Slave
States, aud virgin soil ;or the Cotton and Sugar
Planters Of the newer States That is the whole
story. How dare we proiane the name Of Freedom
in connexlon with this Life, Liberty and pur-
sH Of happiness, where the laborers who cultivate
the soil are abect Slaves, and if they dare venture
on the pursuit of happiness, soon have pack of
bloodhounds and score Of rifles on their track =
And IRE are to be ;heir hunters and their pound
keepers by virtue Of Annexation Sun! If you
have heart, stop this glazing over of nqulty


As TO what Mexico may do, or England may
say, we will wait and see But we hare done great
uyong, or we would not be asking each other what
other nations think of it or may do about it. And
he who saws that the opponents OF Annexation are
now glad they have been beaten heaps Insult and
slander on falsehood and inlquy
