W'H he present Congress act upon the great


question Of fannezationf shall Ills great meas


nre be procrastinatcd, achen tie people hare


demanded immediate action.


We perceive, being at the seat of the National
Government, the necessity Of popular demons,ra-
tions,by public meetings and the voice of the press
to prick on portion ofour members of Congress,
to such action upon the annexation question, as
the result Of the Presidential election demands of
our Representatives. Delay upon the question is
dangerous 1t may lose US vast territory-alien-
ate from us the sympathies Of the brave people of
our sister republic-placs on our south west pow
or and influence which may cripple our resources,
check future greatness and hazard the stability
of our institutions. Yes, delay may produce all
these results. A refusal to carry out the national
desire, by the prompt, decisive and immediate re-
annexation of Texas to the United States, may
lose It to us forever, and establish another bor'
der OF our territory the influence and sway of Great
Britain. We have her already on the norh-up-
on the north west, she is laying the foundation Of
her empre-her islands already dote the gulf of
Mexico and her intrigue is seen in the impudent
conduct Of the Mexican government towards our
people and their agent, and her designs made pal
pable by her interference in our negoc atoms and
affairs. She is wstfuy looking to Texas as her
prey, with a full expectation of its advantages to
her policy, commercial and ambitious. Is there a
single Democratic member in Congress who can
hope to justify his conduct before the Democracy of
the country If he refuses on The first end earliest
occasion, to give this great national question of
nexaton an honest and hearty support Is there
one who will continue the petty cavils on frvulous
points which led to its rejection at the last session,
now that the people have spokenl VIII these Lili-
putians sophistrise in relation to ''the treaty, "
which certain wiseacres brought up in judgment to
defeat this measure, be again urged7 We must
not. To defeat or to crastinae it, will be fatal
to every Democrat North and it will be equally so
to every Whig South of Mason and Dixon's line
The annexation question Is q great National-a
great American question-and what Democrat will
have the temerity to throw obstacles in the wav OF


its immediate consumation? Small points OF OBJ
lection can be tolerated upon small measures, but
upon such question as this, involving the general
welfare he will be regarded as silly or treacherous
who will bring as incident to its prompt determine
ton the question whether eggs are best broken al
the broad or narrow end. d.'-For our own part, we
agree with General jackson, that "the golden op
portunity should not be lost" and with him we
looked upon the rejection OF the treaty with pain
