Sir, one other ground of reproach is relied on by the Opposition, which is to attach the responsibil- ity of this war to the President. He is denounced, sir, for electing the alternative joint resolution for the admission of the State of Texas into the Union, rather than the resolutions which proposed nego- tiation. Sir, not to remark that tlie President's predecessor had already made the election, let me only suggest that Congress authorized the election; and that it savors somewhat of presump
...tion, to argue now, in the dark, that a different election would have avoided wac For one, sir, I believe the alternative election of negotiation would have lost Texas altogether.
Mr. Chairman, I think the war — 1st. In its origin, just, honorable, and necessary, (1 mean unavoidable.) 2d. I think it is being prosecuted with the avow- ed object of conquering a peace, which would se- cure indemnity for the past and security for the future.
3d. I think indemnity and security may consist in pecuniary, territorial, or commercial conditions, altogether or severally.
