is that cfa "flliu! nvti ncrj'ar the CuitiittUioti and the people, of the Untied St-.tcs.'1' lie endeavors lo point out certain advantages w hich we shall derive from the annexation, such as obtaining, (I suppose bv pah-s for it lanr:
qneinliUi-s of live oa.v, and aeouiiie.g a belter soil for the cu!ih::lion ofivitcn and sugar; hefides he thinks it would strengthen the Union. lie denies that '-the United States, in ihe annexation, would make equal sacrifices w ith Texas. After pointing out t lie advantages we are to derive from the annex i'in, he take spe
cial care lo allude to the Sonr.fcity of Ttxas. He expresses a w ish to proet ed immediately to (he negotiation, "ir.ot ;. hrgs L ave to say.

Texas is not," he says, "disposed to yield to any Sbreign nation the privileges of her coast, involving the command of lhe Gulf of Mexico, nor can she concede- them h lh: United States, unless in : Treaty of Union.'' Mr. Hunt talks much and learnedly of the treaties of commerce wh:ch the European powers will form with Texas, and the disas
trous consequences thatm;iv thereby result to
the United States, ece., an J concludes with the declaration that "the annexation ofTexns would ensure to the United States the complete command of the Gulf of Mexico."' Mr. Forsyth's answer is brief and decisive.

Mr. Johnson, of Maryland, on leave, sub

the consideration of the following resolution,
sv.btr.Uled by Mr. Wise on lhe 19th of Sep

Resolved t That a select committee be ap
pointed by ballot to inquire into the causes of
the i lorttia w or, and nto lhe causes oi the
de lavs and failures, and the expenditures which have attended the prosecution of that
war, and into tne manner ol its conduct, and the fuc'.s cf its history generally; that the said
committee have power to send lor persons and papers and that it make report lo the
next session ol Cor.jircs
Mr. Glasscock Iku moved to amend the
fore coin;: resolution, by striking out all after
the wurd '''Resolved? and insert the following
"That a select committee be appointed to
inquire into (he cause of the Florida war, and
the causes of tne extraordinary delays and failures, and the expenditures which have atlendcd the prosecution of the same, and all the facts connected wiih ils history generally; and that said committee have power to send for persons and papers.''
Mr. Howard had submitted a motion lo strike out "a select committee," and insert
"tb.e committee on Military Affairs.
The question pending was the motion of Mr. McKay to postpone the further consideration of the rescltticn until the first Monday in December. Mr. Underwood addressed (he House briefly, and brought to its notice a letter w hich lie
had received from Gen. Jesup, in an answer
lo a communication trom himselt on the sub
ject: in which the Gc-nernl denied having
would obtain by il, would be th: appointment
of a few officers. There was no necessity,
for pressing this bill at this time, and, forone, he should be very happy to return first, and ascertain the views of his constituents.
For these reasons Mr. C: said he should vote lay the bill on the table, and, accordiii!; to "his "promise, had renewed the motion to
that ellect. Mr. Conner Ihcn moved a call of the House, and upon the motion ashed for the yeas and
navs, which were ordered, and were yeas ISO, nays 5. Tin: call being ordered, was proceeded in,
through several states, till 2 2 members !iau
responded lo their names, w hen on motion of Mr. Chambers of Ky., it was suspended HI

The question then recurring to lay the bill
on the table, thereupon,
Mr. .Grennell asked for the yeas and nays,
which were ordered.
Mr. Lewis asked the gentleman who made
tho motion, lo w ithdraw it, so as lo permit an
amendment to be submitted, which w ould put
the bill in a fona less objectionable ton num
ber of members.
Mr. Williams should like, he said, very
much to accommodate 'the gentleman, bul
Iborn were a dozen others who would also
w ish to be accommodated in tb.e same way
and ho. therefore, could not assent io the IC
quest. Several gentlemen wished to have the
mcndir.ent read, but it was ruled to be out of
order pending the motion lo lay on ihe table. The question was then taken, and decided

He w as walking w ith her ar.d another woman, and murdered her at raid-day w ithin full view of several witnesses, by slabbing her repeatedly w ith a new dirk knife, which he had probably bought for the express purpose. It is said, "lie did the deed on account of the refusal of tb.e worrem . be-

Mr. Clark pledged himself to do so, and went on to say that lie did not rise to discuss the merits of this Li!!, but to give very briefly, the reasons ihat would induce him to vole to lay it on the table. He said he shvtild have preferred a motion to postpone the further consideration of the bill till next session, and his reasons were these: This measure as a
