Mason, of New York, and another on the fourteenth day of March, eighteen hundred and thifty-five, under which the enor- mous amount of eleven hundred leagues of land has been claimed by sundry individuals, some of whom reside in foreign countries, and are not citizens of the Republic; which said acts are contrary to articles fourth, twelfth, and fifteenth of the laws of eighteen hundred and twenty- four, of the General Congress of Mexico; and one of said acts, for that cause has, by said General Congress of Mex- ico, been declared null and void. It is hereby declared that the said act of eighteen hundred and thirty-four, in favor of John T.

And whereas, the present unsettled state of the country and the general welfare of the people demand that the operations of the land office, and the whole land system shall be suspended until persons serving in the army can have a fair and equal chance with those remaining at home to select and locate their lands, it is hereby declared, that no survey or title which may hereafter be made shall be

And with a view to the simplification of the land system, and the protection of the people and the government from litigation and fraud, a general land office shall be estab- lished, where all the land-tillers of the Republic shall be registered ; and the whole territory of the Republic shall be sectionized in a manner hereafter to be prescribed by law, which shall enable the officers of the government or any citizen to ascertain with certainty the lands that are vacant, and those lands which may be covered by valid titles.


SEC. 11.

CONDITIONAL CONSENT OF THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES.


Resolved, by the Congress of the United States of America in Congress assembled.


1. That Congress doth consent that the territory properly included within, and rightly belonging to the Republic of Texas, may be erected into a new State, to be called the State of Texas, with a republican form of government, to be adopted by the people of said Republic, by deputies in convention assembled, with the consent of the existing gov- ernment, in order that the same may be admitted as one of the States of the Union.


2. And be it further resolved, That the foregoing consent of Congress is given upon the following conditions, and with the following guarantees to wit: First. Said State to be formed, subject to the adjustment by this government of all questions of boundary that may arise with other governments ; and the Constitution thereof, with the proper evidence of its adoption by the people of said Republic of Texas, shall be transmitted to the President of the United States, to be laid before Congress for its final action, on or before the first day of January, one thousand eight hun- dred and forty-six. Second. Said State, when admitted into the Union, after ceding to the United States all public edifices, fortifications, barracks, ports and harbors, navy and navy-yards, docks, magazines, arms, armaments, and all other property and means pertaining to the public de- fense belonging to the said Republic of Texas, shall retain . all the public funds, debts, taxes, and dues of every kind, which may belong to, or be due and owing to said Republic;


601


ANNEXATION OF TEXAS.


and shall also retain all the vacant and unappropriated lands lying within its limits, to be applied to the payment of the debts and liabilities of said Republic of Texas, and the residue of said lands, after discharging said debts and liabilities, to be disposed of as said State may direct; but in no event are said debts and liabilities to become a charge upon the government of the United States. Third. New States, of convenient size, not exceeding four in number, in addition to said State of Texas, and having sufficient population, may, hereafter, by the consent of said State, be formed out of the territory thereof, which shall be en- titled to admission under the provisions of the Federal Con- stitution. And such States as may be formed out of that portion of said territory lying south of thirty-six degrees thirty minutes north latitude, commonly known as the Mis- souri Compromise Line, shall be admitted into the Union, with or without slavery, as the people of each State asking admission may desire. And in such State or States as shall be formed out of said territory north of said Missouri Compromise Line, slavery, or involuntary servitude (ex- cept tor crime ), shall be prohibited.


3. And be it further resolved, That if the President of the United States shall, in his judgment and discretion, deem it most advisable, instead of proceeding to submit the foregoing resolution to the Republic of Texas, as an over- ture on the part of the United States for admission, to negotiate with that Republic ; then


Be it resolved, That a State, to be formed out of the present Republic of Texas, with suitable extent and bound- aries, and with two Representatives in Congress, until the next apportionment of representation, shall be admitted into the Union, by virtue of this act, on an equal footing with the existing States, as soon as the terms and conditions of such admission, and the cession of the remaining Texan territory to the United States shall be agreed upon by the governments of Texas and the United States, And that the sum of one hundred thousand dollars be, and the same is hereby, appropriated to defray the expenses of missions and negotiations, to agree upon the terms of said admission'
