Our own public lauds were rather an expense in the end than @ source of revenus; what, then, could we der've from such territory as Mexico has to give, even if it were all her public demain? No, sir, there is no indemnity to be had that way. Mr. Underwood, at some lenzth, exhibited that the plan of military occupation with the idea of forced contributions from the people of Mexico, for the eupport of the army, will prove not ouly fruitless of contributions if set in practice, but disas- trous to us as a nation. if long;eontinued In conclusion, he recommended that we retrace our steps -that we should take of Mexico cnly such indemities as are due to ourcitizens from Mexican indebtedness before the war.

He moved that it bs referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and | printed. printing. i : Mr. Kixo—I have a word to say on the subject of print- ing the memorial It comes from nine thousand person! of highly respectable character, who pay the pocr tax maintain their own poor, educate their own children, and in all cases conform to the laws. Being of this cha- racter,! had not supposed that @ question would be | raised as to the printing.

Mr. Cozn—I1 opposed the printing without reference to the coutents of the memorial or the respectability of the memorialiets. Thegentieman ‘s aware that oppori- tion has always been imade to printing memorials of this character ; and that printing is confined almost ex- clasively te the memorials of State Legislatures. It would be unfair to draw distinctions between people of different portions of the cowatry. If we print this me- morial of Friends, we ought to print all the resolutions of primary political meetings, if sent to us.
