More from John Tyler
I have to inform the House that the Executive did not deem it his duty to interfere with the naval and military forces of the United States
Mexico has still to learn that however freely we may indulge in discussion among ourselves, the American people will tolerate no interference in their domestic affairs by any foreign government.
The responsibility of deciding this question is now devolved upon you.
With equal, if not greater, propriety might the United States demand of other governments to surrender their numerous and valuable acquisitions.
