To-day, if the Screws hoic, the Annexation o.
Texas is to be driven through the House. The
n,tra Slave faction has put in the rowel SO deep
that most of the Loco Focos from this State viii
kick, but if Charley Ingersoll but holos the
Pennsylvania squad 6rm the Caucus billis pretty
certain 10 pass by eight or ten majority. II II
were but so modified as to give Freedom some
show of equality with Slavery IN the new Tern
tory, it would receive some twenty votes winch
will now be cast against it, But IL any such
srm as this, the whole Calhoun interest would

Strengthening and securing Of Slavery is boldly
avowed to be the main object Of Annexation,
which, if this be not effected, is net desired at ALL
Then the few Southern Wings, who will now be
constrained TO vote for what is presented as
measure vital to the South and to Slavery, would
also vote against it; SO that far more would be
lost than gained by conforming 1t IN any degree
TO the dictates of Justice and Freedom. Thepfo-
ect was conceived in Slavery, and must be car
ned as slavery.extending measure or 1t cannot
be carried at ALL

There is no Texas above this line, and the pretex,
that any existsis an impuden. knavery. onthe
map of Texas before US Gn Bgadford's Compra-
hensive Atlrs) the boundaries of that County are
clearly traced out, and in no place does Texas
extend North of the thirty.tourth degree OF
North latitude. True, if VIC run Texas to the
extreme limits claimed-namely the Rio del
Norte, and thence North to the line ofthe United
States, there toill be small corner Of the new
ACQUISITION above the line Of go 3O But this
corner is not in Texes-never was in Texas
nsver was pretended 10 be in Texas-but Santa
Fe, settled for two hundred yeass by a Mexic
Spanish population, and to this day as clearly
and fully a portion of Mexico ns Vera Cruz or
Puebla. 1t is region in which Slavery could no
more exist than on the peaks of the Rocky
Mountains. Such is the Compromise which
Slavery vouchsafes and Loco Focoism is doing
hs utmost to fasten on the Country. A genuine
Compromise BILL like Mr.. Robnson's. hardly cs-
