By « the daily application of such agreeable tonics he l perhaps be strengthened for the p a rt he is expec to act. One ot the greatest difficulties to be over, is the effect which his apostasy will have upon his reputation in New England. The Union has salve for this sore also, la its very next sheet yesterday’s—it sayB : “ Knowing pretty well the character of the people of New England, hav'e had no doubt, from the time Mr. Webstex made his speech, that the course which he ma,tked o ut for himself would be approved and sustained by the mass of the people of all parties in that section of the Union.” V> To-day is set apart for the eonsideratioh of Mr. Footje’s schema of a select committee If U should not come to a vote, the Union must have anotl dose ready to administer to its patient to-morrow. , ^e perceive the pro-slavery journals are arguing i i irr off thehe obligationlig: of the federal government th r the domain favo o t ob admit four new states to pe creased out of Texas^aa ^earnestly as if they expected to mal a t the pieseht session, by the help of Mr. Foote’s iect committee, three or four now states at on Among other twaddle, they pretend that the federal government has no right to form new states, by the consent of the people who iuhabn them. To form, in one of its most common meaninj nifies to shape, to give externa! fignrt government has always exercised this power in re gard to the new states. In the ordinance of 17b7, adopted afterwards by Congress under the prese: constitution, it directs how the several states of ti Northwestern Territory are to he formed.

The federal government has a| righ 1 time for asking the consent of Texas, the fight lecide how many new states, hot exceeding four, it fa expedient to form out of tlje space enclosed by the limits of Texas, the right jo tix their specific boundaries, and the right to decline acting on the subject altogether. Texas has no under power the resolution, or by the constitulibn, or in any other manner, to force the performauio of this work upon U.mgress. Neither the government of Texas, nor the people of th e . districts of wljieh it is composed, are commioned by the resolution to carve their terri tory into new states and demand their admission into the Union. They are nowhere referred to as author ized to institute the proceed'ings by which the states 3 on to say that the states 3 territory” of T jxas—a phraseology clearly referring to the act of fixing their boundaries^—shall be entitled thus “ formed out o 5 admission under the federal constitution, it is only under the federal con sul ution that they are to be admitted,it and this ted, a Ihemsehemselves quires that they shall present t with a' republican constitution The people of the stares thus formed by the fede-al government, are to frame for themselves a republican constitution, as the com dttion without which they cannot be entitled to ad mission into he Union. They are not, as the J oumal of Commerce pretends to suppose, to be admitted as soon as their foimTiSrdsterminod, but as soon as they shaU have provided themselves with the proper kind of government.

Itw o u ld hardly be neces sary, we imagine, to eay to the leader of this vol ume that its contents were from a lemalo hand. The character of the sex, is, for the most part, as visibly pressed upon the composition as upon the hand At all events, the character of this collection of the poems of Mrs. W hitaker is truly feminine. The ■•iubjeets are such as one who finds her happiness and her sources of interest in domestic life would naturally choose—natural affeciion, love, friendship, religion, the remenisinces of youth, associations with familiar the domestic curUmities by which we afo ,ed, sickness, separation an-J the grave. We -•anaot help thinking that the female mind draw? octs a tenderer interest^ and treats cr pathos than tho other sex. To show what manner the author of this volume has the sensible as .selfish. First, it is not true that it is the business of the Governor of Ma?sachu.?etts dgn a petition for the pardon of Professor \ ^ b sier,” Imt to consider such a petition after it has been signed by others; and secondly, it shows no great moral elevation in this distinguished gentleman of tho State of Xow .lerseyto attend to hisownbusi- ne.ss rather than do an act of common humanity.
