To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

A true issue made by the President would be about as follows : " T say the soil was ours on which the first blood was shed; there are those who say it was not." I now proceed to examine the President's evidence, as appli- cable to such an issue. "When that evidence is analyzed, it is all included in the following propositions : 1. That the Rio Grande was the western boundary of Lou- isiana, as we purchased it of France in 1803.
2. That the Republic of Texas always claimed the Rio Grande as her
...western boundary.
3. That, by various acts, she had claimed it on paper.
4. That Santa Anna, in his treaty with Texas, recognized the Rio Grande as her boundary.
5. That Texas before, and the United States after annexa- tion, had exercised jurisdiction beyond the Nueces, between the two rivers.
6. That our Congress understood the boundary of Texas to extend beyond the Nueces.
Now for each of these in its turn : His first item is, that the Rio Grande was the western boundary of Louisiana, as we purchased it of France in 1803; and, seeming to expect this to be disputed, he argues over the amount of nearly a page to prove it true ; at the end of which, he lets us know that, by the treaty of 1819, we sold to Spain the whole country, from the Rio Grande eastward to the Sa- bine.
