The resolution being on its passage, it was briefly and strongly opposed by Messrs. Benton and Yancey, on the ground that the period was about to arrive when Con. | gress could, and should, legislate for our people beyond the Rocky Mountains The latter moved to lay the re- solution on the table. Mr. Breese took the same ground. He was unwilling ¢ | to give the power of adjournment to the House. Mr. Westcott took the same view of the case. Mr. Davis ad- vocated the resolution. He thought there was time enough to do all the work necessary by the 20th July. Mr. Sevier opposed the resolution. The time was too | short for the business before them, and he was unwilling | to adjourn and leave important matters unacted on. Mr. Crarron moved to extend the period named to the 8d of August.

He insists | that our expenses are now half a million a day, and recommends a special commission with an offer to treat with Mexico. Upon this point it is supported that the initiatory steps are now making | in Mexico for a treaty of peace, and that with the | arrival of Santa Anna at Vera Cruz, a pronwncia- | mento would be issued, proclaiming him Presi- | dent, when a commissioner may be expected to | this government, Santa Anna having been in- | formed in advance that such commissioner will | be received.
