 of Congress.

 The TEXAS DEBATE was continued in the Sem on the 26Ih, "Wednesday of last week,) and after the evenings recess, assumed new phase, by the position ol Mir. BAGBY. of this State, who took grounds against the Joint Resolutions of the House, and in favor of MT BESroS's Bill The Globe gives the substance of his remarks as follows:

 ''Nlr, Bagb, took the floor and expressed much solcitnde thai this proposition for annexing Texas night be made to shape free from all con. stltutonl objection. He averred his belief that Ihe people, so far as they were concerned, had settled the question that Texas should be admitted into the Union, it n could be doue consistently with the pro visions of the constitution. He believed It could be sO d0ne-nOt, however, by the passage of the naked proposition which came from the House. He ex- pressed an ardent desire that the Congress oi the United States, this session, would pass some act by which Texas might be ceded to the United States He did not believe, however, that ii could be done by the proposition of the House; for that determined nothing, but merely gave the of Congress to that republic 10 do what she had ndisputahe right 10 do-erect new constitution with the view 10 her future admission. ii was his opinion that 1t would be more respectable To pass a law indicating the ierus or which the end could be ataned. IL was thls reason, and because the mode fixed by II was free from constitutional jection, and woud with more certainty, bring that infant renubc into the Union, that he preferred the proposition submite d by the Senator from Missouri, (ilr. Benton) He declared that he would not go for any proposition winch, in his opinion did not conform the cuns,i tuIlon which recognises any right whatever in the Mexican government over that territory. From this declaration of Mir. BAGBY, Il becomes nearly certain, ,ha the Jo'nt Resolutions cannot ras in their present shape. The Resolutions of the Ma ryand Legislature make Mr. Merrck's votci also lia l n ,.n .' ---r.-- ~-..h..I.la N- Benon's bill or none will pass-and for our part WI say that if the joint resolutions fa from constitution al scruples in lhe Senate, by all means give us BE, rows bill. There is great deal of merit in ,ha bill, much AS il has been assaiIed At all events, wi save the question, and it ought to be accepted every friend of rexas whose Texas zeal is not mainl moved by political calculations within the U States Tine v@e was taken on Wednesday evening, bu the SenaIe adjourned late, with the understandn. that the debate would be closed by Mir. Crittende m the o'ning and the question taken impediateI after.
