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

In taking Texas, therefore, we take Santa Fe. We not only take Texas, but the conquests of Texas. W T e add to our dominions one hundred and fifty thousand souls now willing subjects of the Mexican confederacy. * And this is done under the name of Texas ; this is done under the plea of original discovery; under the term of re annexation. Away with these miserable subterfuges. If we have the avidity, let us have the port of conquerors ; let us not go out to rob in the garb of a special attorney ...; a national compound of Dick Turpin and Oily Gammon, uniting plundering and pettifogging in a new motley of crime.
* Kendall's Santa Fe, vol. I. P. 16.
INDEXATION OF TEXAS, 25 But it is impossible to suppose that that government will con- sent to this. If she patiently acquiesce her days are numbered, and even our generation may well see Mexico itself in the grasp of this Republic. N-o people can submit to such an aggression no people will.
There are two other matters connected with this branch of the subject, not unworthy of attention.
