Webster, 26, Great George-street, Westminster. • The object of the proposed line (for which application will be made to Parliament in the ensuing session) is to supply an important link in a communication connecting the town of Great Yarmouth and the Eastern Coast of the kingdom with the Western, Midland, and Northern districts, accommodating in its progress the city of Nor wich, the town of King's Lynn, Sutton Bridge, and the towns of Long Sutton, Holbeach, Spalding, Boston, Spilaby, by Louth, and Grimsby. Commencing at the proposed terminus of the Lynn, Dereham, and Norwich Railway at Lynn, the line will proceed by Sutton Bridge and the towns of Long Sutton and Holbeach to Boston, there con necting itself with the Boston Branch of the Cambridge an Lincoln line, which that Company have, in pnrsuance of a pledge given to the Board of Trade, agreed to carry into effect : thence it will pro ceed through Boston, Spilsby, and Louth to Grimsby, where it will connect itself with the Great Grimsby and Sheffield line. The Board of Trade having reported in favour of the Newark and Sheffield line, that Company have announced their intention to ex tend their project from Newark to a junction at Sleaford with the Cambridge and Lincoln line. It is also intended to extend the proposed line of railway from Hol beach to Spalding, there to form a junction with the Spalding and Stamford Branch of the Cambridge and Lincoln line, which that Company have also pledged themselves to the Board of Trade to carry into effect. It cannot fail to be observed that the projected lines will together form the most direct, complete, and continuous communication between the eastern, western, midland, and northern districts of the kingdom, will bring the important markets of Norwich and Man chester nearer to each other by fifty miles than by any other line of railway ; and besides giving communication to the ports of Grimsby, Boston, King's Lynn, Spalding, and Sutton Bridge, with the interior of the country, and with each other, will afford the greatest amount of local accommodation to the intermediate districts ; in addition to which, these towns and districts will be placed on a through line to the metropolis, by their connexion with the Lynn and Ely and the Northern and Eastern Railways. From a survey recently made by Mr. Fulton of that portion of the line from Lynn to Boston, it appears there is no tunnelling, cutting, or embanking, of any importance necessary, and that the line will be practically a dead level. Under these circumstances, and from the investigation that has been made of the other portion of the line, it is confidently estimated that the proposed capital will be amply sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every con sequent expense, and the income derivable from the great traffic which must necessarily arise, not only from the transit of passengers, but from the transport of fish, as well as of corn, cattle, and other pro duce of the great agricultural district through which the lines pass to the principal food-consuming districts,•and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will afford an ample return for the proposed outlay of capital. It is proposed to apply for the usual power to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum upon the paid-up capital from the date of each payment until the completion of the railway. A large proportion of the capital being already secured, it has been determined to limit the period for receiving applications for the remaining Shares to the 21st Instant, -until 'which date applications will be received by the Solicitors and Parliamentary Agents, or by the undermentioned Brokers :—Messrs.

If the people of Texas choose to revolutionize their Government and institute some new and different repub lican organization, they may do so without the leave of a foreign Government " first had and obtained." But the United States. have acknowledged our title to be re cognised as an irulependent nation, both de facto and de jure. Should voe adopt the course designated by their resolutions we, at once lose the benefit of that acknow ledgment. We pass into a state of imbecile and hope= lessdependenee upon that power —to be annexed ?—cer tainly never, until their aspiring partizans shall cease to need the material we now furnish them f or th e maim facture of political capital. Our relations }with other Governments dissolved, and our own nationality re nounced, the United States may consent to hold—as they shall have consented to place us—in a state of penultimate but unaccomplished, annexation I But even this consent of the American Congress, meagre and valueless as it is to the people of Texas, but for which we are required to give to the United States a lien upon our country's sovereignty—this worthless con sent, as if begrudged to Texas, is eked out to her at a miser's usury, and is shackled with what lawyers call " conditions precedent." Passing by the required sa crifice of our right to adjust the boundaries of our ter ritory, the consent of that Congress, even once more to entertain the Texas question, is coupled with the cold assurance, that if we are ever admitted into the Union at all, we must cede to the United States " all our mines,' minerals, salt lakes and springs, also all our public edifices, fortifications, barracks, ports and harbours, navy and navy yards, docks, tnagazines, arms, firmaments, and all other propertyand means per taining to the public defence." We mast also yield up our revenue and our capacity to raise one, which single item, under the financial regulatioties • of our foster. ing stepmother, would bring into her treasury at least three hundred thousand dollars per annum ; for which we have her kind permission to retain our public debt, and keep our public domain; subject, however, to the payment of the debt, and circumscribed within - such limits as,she may, hereafter, be pleased to assign to our territory, in the exercise of her characteristic and far stretching diplomacy which once reached even to the western banks of the Sabine ! We must, moreover, truckle to her pet abolitionists, by obligating ourselves to prohibit slavery north of the parallel of thirty-six degrees thirty minutes, known as the Missouri Compro mise line. We have always been a warm and hearty advocate for the cause of annexation ; but never did we d ream th a t the approval of th e people of texas would be required to a proposition so absurd—so degrading as the one pro pounded by this resolution. Our space does not now admit of further detail. Suffice it, that we contrast our present elevated position, as a people, secure in the enjoy ment of independence and in th e s p ee d y acqu i s i t i on of acknow ledged ; secure in the wealth which the commerce of Europe is about to pour into our lap, and in the increasing value of our lands, arising from ex tended occupation, and the investment of foreign capital; secure of becoming " the most favoured" by those a interest and erful and wealthy sover e i gn ti es , w h om b ot h and policy impel to cherish our prosperity and growth, that their markg may be supplied with our staples ; and secure that the increase of commerce will speedily render no less consistent than desirable, a great diminu tion of the present tariff, with the alternative presented by this resolution, of Texas divested of all these high privileges and advantages ; shorn of her attributes as a nation ; crippled in her commerce, in her prosperity, in her domestic resources ; depressed by the burdens of public debt and direct taxation ; her land in consequence depreciated in value ; and in the event of final annexa• Lion upon the proposed basis, our public domain not only razed and mortgaged to secure the payment of our debt, but even eviscerated of its mineral wealth, to swell the federal treasury. This is indeed but a dim and totally inadequate view of the actual pit and grave of insignificance and infamy into which the House of Representatives of the American Congress have proposed to plunge this nation. " Since he, miscall'd the morning star, Nor man—nor fi en d h at h f a ll en so far I" [From the Civilian and Galveston Gazette ] The article which we now copy to-day from the National Register, affords gratifying evidence of a return on the part of the friends of annexation in this country, to a proper sense of self-respect, and an understanding of the position which Texas may and ought to essume in re lation to the question. Our friends beyond the Sabine have lost sight of the homely adage that it takes two to make a bargain, and only studied how to shape measures so as to make the " reciprocity all on one side," until at length their utter selfishness wad disregard of the respect due to Texas as an independent nation, whi c h h as th us far maintained her nationahty,' rights, and liberties, begins to produce the natu ra l f ru i ts of disappointmentand aversion in those of our citizens who had looked to that quarter for a magnanimous and disinterested regard for our welfare and happiness. The helpless and perish ing beggar may, without hesitation, accept the most humiliating 'conditions for and agree to become the menial of, him from whom he receives the means of averting famine and death ; but the sturdy yeoman, whose honest industry and strong arm afford him all the means of subsistence and protection requisite to his con dition and habits in life, may well shun the banquet and the association, if invited into the society of the more wealthy and presuming, when his acceptance is to be coupled with acknowledgments of vassalage and in feriority. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY, APRIL 13. ARRIVAL OF THE CAMBRIA. The Royal Mail steamer Cambria, Captain Jud kins, arrived here this morning, after a quick voyage of eleven and a half days from Boston, and nine days and eighteen hours from Halifax. She has brought upwards of 120 passengers. The advices from Texas, received at New York, have thrown rather a damp upon the glorious project of annexation. Texas is very shy—she doubts if annexation will be entirely for her benefit. The Government paper opposes it altogether ; and so great a damp is caused in New York, that most of the press view the subject very coolly, and the New lork He rald doubts if Texas will be annexed at all. We annex a copy of General Almonte's protest to the Executive against the annexation of Texas. The Minister, it is now said, intends to remain in New York until he receives fresh instructions from the new Mexican Administration, and he expresses openly his belief that war will ensue. The New York Herald states :—" That it is his intention to issue through the press, and place before the American people, not only the recent diplomatic correspondence between him and our Government, but a number of other yiettes.and considerations addressed to the American people against the policy, the justice, and the legality of the recent movements, in favour of the annexation of Texas." The protest of General Almonte is as follows : (Translation.) " The undersigned, &c., has the honour to addres s the Hon. J. C. Calhoun, & c., for the purpose of making known to him the profound regret with which he has seen that the General Congress of the Union has passed a law consenting to and admitting. into the American confederation the Mexican province of Texas. " The undersigned had flattered himself that in. this question the good sense and sound opinions of the citi zens most distinguished and experienced in the manage ment of public affairs in this republic would have pre vailed in the deliberations of the legislative body and of the union ; but unfortunately this has not been the case, and, contrary to his hopes and most sincere wishes, he sees consummated by the American Government an act of aggression the most- unjust which can be recalled in the annals of modern history, such as the spoliation of a friendly nation, like Mexico, of a considerable part of her territory. " For these reasons, the undersigned, in fulfilment of his instructions, finds himself obliged to protest, as he lots accordingly protest, in the most solemn manner, in the name of his Government, against the law passed on the 28th of last month by the General Congress of the United States, and sanctioned on the Ist of the present month by the President of the said States, by which the province of Texas, an integral part of the Mexican territory, is allowed to be admitted into the American union. " The undersigned, in like manner, declares that the aforesaid law can in no manner invalidate the right which the Mexican nation possesses to recover the afore said province of Texas, of which she is now unjustly despoiled, and which right she will sustain and enforce at all times by whatever means are in her power. " The undersigned will say, in conclusion, to the Hon. Secretary of State of the United States, in order that be may be pleased to inform the President of the said States of the same, that in consequence of the law against which he has just protested, his mission to this Government is terminated from to-day. Consequently, the undersigned requests the Hon. Secretary of State to be pleased to send him his passports, as he has arranged to quit this city as soon as possible for New York. " The undersigned, &c. " Washington, March 6." Advices bad been received at New York, from Cuba, to the 18th ult. They were unimportant.

The recent melancholy events which have disturbed the Diocese of Exeter" and which, it is feared, cannot be satisfactorily settled, have largely contributed to enable:ll the neoessity for a Free. Episcopal Church. The party within the pale of the Establishment, who denounce the Protestant Reformation, and labour without ceasing to subvert its principles, cannot be sufficiently held in check in a diocese like Exeter, where they are notoriously favoured by the Bishop, without some large and determined effort to provide for the due celebration of the services of the Church, in connexion with the faithful ministry of the Gospel, free from the control of the ecclesiastical ruler. To provide then for those who have been driven from their paro chial edifices by the semi-popish teaching of the clergy, it has been felt needful to obtain ground in a central part of the city, on which to erect a large and commodious church; the hall opened a few. months since in Fore-street having proved quite insufficient to ac commodate the numerous congregation. Christ Church is now erecting in East Southernhax—one of the best situations in Exeter, and on the borders of the two populous parishes of St. SidwelVs and Trinity. It will be constructe(l to seat 1,400 persons ; four hundred of the sittings will be free. The cost of the ground and building, with other expenses, will exceed 4,0001. The friends of Protestant truth throughout the country are re spectfully invited to sympathise with their brethren at Exeter, by aiding with their contributions this spirited undertaking. An opportunity is thus afforded them, not only to Strengthen the hands of a small band, who, trusting in God, have commenced this work, but to record their attachment to those principles which have been esteemed the glory of Great Britain, and the distinguishing excellence of her religious institutions. Contributions for the Christ Church Building Fund will be received for Henry Crofts, Esq., the Treasurer, at the City Bank, Exeter ; and at Messrs. Roberts, Curtis, and Co., Bankers, London. NATIONAL ANTI-CORN-LAW BAZAAR._ The Council of the League having determined upon holding a Bazaar in the Theatre Royal Covent-garden, London, in aid of the One Hundred Thousand Pounds Fund, beg to announce that it will OPEN on Tuvaspay, May 8, for exhibition, and that on the succeed ing Monday, the 12th of May, the sale of articles will commence. Many of the large manufacturing towns having intimated that they intend to furnish their stalls with articles illustrative of their staple manufacture, such contributions will not be removed at the period of sale, but remain on view till the close of the Bazaar. Contributions may be forwarded, from the 15th of April to the Ist of May, addressed to George Wilson, Esq., Chairman, at the Theatre Royal Covent-garden, London, where all the requisite arrangements will be made for their reception. As the inquiry is repeatedly made as to whether the articles sent to the Bazaar should have the prices affixed by the contributors, or by the Committee of Management in London, it is respectfully requested that, wherever practicable, the contributors themselves will a ffi x their own prices to the articles according to the known cost of th e raw materials, expendeda po n u dt i lr the ad m. ditional value given by the labour subse quently Upon application, the Council will be happy to forward to any of the Local Committees, or individuals, who are preparing contribu tions, labels, on which may be placed the description of the article— the price —and the name of the contributor. The Council also would earnestly urge upon their friends in the smaller towns and rural districts, where, from a variety of causes, it may not be practicable to obtain contributions in the shape of manu factured goods, or articles of taste or fancy, that efforts should be made to collect money contributions, and forward them before the Ist of May, as Bazaar purses in aid of the League Fund. . Such of the Local Committees as intend to furnish a stall, are earnestly recommend to communicate with the Council without delay. Full particulars of the general arrangements will appear shortly.

EeHille, T.( , „ BANKERS. London: The Union Bank of Laden: — Hereford and Brecon: The National Provincial Bank of England. This undertaking will, in connection with existing and projected lines of railway, .bring into immediate. communication with Birming ham, and the whole midland and Nornlern Districts of England, the great mineral fields of Monmouthshire,,as well as those adjoining Car diff and Merthyr Tydvil ; at the same Vine it will furnish to the im portant agricultural counties of Hereford, Worcester, Brecon, and M onmouth, a ready channel for the transmission of their produce to the dense population inhabiting the mineral districts of South Wales. The object of this company will be very materially aided, first, by the existing line from Cardiff. to Merthyr: and, secondly, by the lines intended to be formed by the Welsh Midland Railway Company. The line will commence at Newport, and will thence proceed northward by Pontypool and Abergavenny to Hereford, where (in that direction) it will terminate. From Abergaveniry a branch will extend eastward to 'Monmouth, and another westward to Brecon. From Brecon an extension will be made to Merthyr, to join the Taaff Vale Railway, ending at Cardiff. Thus will be established, In addition to a free intercourse with more distant localitie's, a complete chain of railway communication amongst the Important towns and districts just enumerated, and which are now wholly unprovided in that respect. The portion of the line extending westward from Monmouth will also promote the most direct passenger route that can be adopted from Monmouth to Carmarthen, and the South of Ireland. In addition to the main line and extensions above indicated, the Directors propose to place themselves in immediate commtnication with the proprietors of the most important works in the several dis tricts traversed, in order to fix the situation and the course of the minor branches, which will be necessary to complete the comprehen sive scheme of communication intended ; and to this object regard has been had in fixing the capital of the Company. The investigations which have been made on the subject of the traffic fully justify the conclusion that the undertaking is eminently calculated for the advantage and convenience of the public, and that it will prove a most profitable investment of capital. In conclusion, it may suffice to observe that it is well known that the scheme of a comprehensive system of inland communication in the districts in question has already engaged the serious attention of the tribunal appointed by the Legislature for the initiatory examina tion of railway projects ; and the Board of Trade has, in its report on the Tring and Oxford schemes, fully recognised the great im portance and necessity of the chain of communication of which the present undertaking will form a material link in the following man ner :—" The accommodation of Herefordshire, Worcestershire, South Wales, and the important districts lying to the west of the present lines of railway will evidently, at no distant period, require not only a wide gauge railway along the southern coast, to place them in com munication with London, but also a narrow guage railway, to place them in direct and unbroken communication, through Birmingham, with the manufacturing districts and the great railway system of the rest of the kingdom." The engineering capabilities of the course of the line and exten sions have been ascertained to be excellent, and the capital proposed will be ample for the construction of the 125 miles of rallwaY intended to be formed.

Dear Sir,—We have all, in this sectioa of country, been looking with considerable anxiety for your journal, to see what opinion you may have formed relative to the recent discomfiture of the " Warwick of the Democracy," as, he is termed here, God save , the mark, but it appears that you have not either deemed it necessary to expend your shot on him, or, that being without the proper in formation, you did not think it advisable to hazard con jecture.

UARRICAN. and 16, NORTON FOLGATE. The advent of Duff Green, in this country, was pe culiarly auspicious. His arrival was heralded in a long article in the Telegraph, of Houston, entitled the " Warwick of the Democracy," which, it is shrewdly conjectured, was written by himself. He arrived at Galveston and created a good deal - of ex citement by giving out that he was en rank for Mexico, to watch the movements of that Government, by authority. He returned with a batch of informa tion of all kinds ; bringing, at the same time, the cor respondence between Shannon and Rejon—winked slyly, put his fingers to his nose, and spoke knowingly of smat ters supposed to be going on in Mexico—insinuated very gently that he had given Mr. Shannon immortality by writing the diplomatic dispatches—talked of his con nexion with Mr. Calhoun—spoke of the distinguished Southerner mentioned in Mr. Tyler's message to the Senate, which first put him on his guard with regard to the designs of Britain on Texas and abolition—and, in short, he very meekly, by "insinuation," claimed to have set the annexation ball in motion ; which, too, was to make Texas great, Polk President, and he, Duff Green, marvellous. On his arrival at Washington he took a suite of rooms (for privacy)—your Minister boarded and lodged in a room with a dozen at the same time— and commenced his practice as adviser-general to the nation—proposed that the whole tariff regula tions should be changed—proved it by certain funda mental principles, the gist of which was, that they, if adopted, would throw the North into a fever for an nexation—throw Mr. Polk into the hands of Mr. Cal houn, and, finally, make him, C., President. All these doings, it now appears, was only preliminary to his grand dehisce, which came off shortly after, as follows: He proposed to Dr. Jones, President, to sign or recom mend a Bill for frontier protection, which was to be done, without cost to Texas, as follows: General Green and his associates were to be incorporated into a com pany, with power to levy war on Mexico, to conquer and annex territory, and to pay the expenses of the war with the spoils. To do this they were to have the pri vilege of inducing some sixty thousand Northern In dians to migrate to Texas, to be placed under the control of the company, to carry on the war with, &c. The President, being a reasonable man , gently ob jected to this w h o l esa l e annexat i on of! the wrong side of the Rio, and perhaps said so. The General quite as politely insinuated to him, that if he did not sign such a Bill when passed, that he would make his seat anything other than one of roses—in fact, that he would revolu tionise the country. The result was that he was ordered out of presence, and proclaimed as you have seen. So ended the matter. We are told, that upon condition of our renouncing the American Union for ever, the monarchical powers of Europe will then terminate our formidable war with Mexico " forthwith, and compulsively." The same friendly promise has been made, from time to time, for the last seven or eight years ; and its repetition, just at this particular crisis, when the speedy success of annexa tion is beyond all reasonable doubt, is exceedingly well timed, in order to create a re-action in the public feeling of this country. • We are not told whether this friendly mediation is again to be attended by another " armistice" as a necessary preliminary step, to be afterwards " im proved into one of more convenient duration." We are, however, assured that " France and England will openly submit to the consideration of our Government and people inducements for us to remain independent." Such information as this is usually confined to the chief agents of Government as a matter of State secresy, and is rarely furnished to the public journals, except for the purpose of political influence and foreign counteraction. This announcement is made in the positive and unqualified terms of a negotiator, who has participated in all the Cabinet secrets and intrigues of both hemispheres. The public need not be surprised should this singular manifesto prove to be the harbinger of party organiza tion, and of great exertions in this country, to counter act the labours of our friends in the United States and to defeat this great measure here, after it has triumphed there.—" We shall see." The Civilian of the Bth has the following paragraph in relation to the export trade in provisions, &c. :—We still look, with great confidence, for the period when a highly important and lucrative trade will be done in the exportation of many articles from Texas, which have not hitherto come into the account of the foreign trade of the country. Within the last year important advances have been made, and there is a good prospect that they will continue until the many important but dormant re sources, which are capable of making Texas the most prosperous country on the globe, are developed. The same paper, referring to the fact that the trade between Galveston and Havannab is beginning to attract attention, and the prspect that it will ultimately become of great importance, publishes a list of the rates and charges for commission, &c., on purchases, sales, &c., in Havannah. The same paper of the Ist instant has the following paragraph in relation to Gen. Duff Green's misunder standing with the Texian President. It seems from this that the affair has not been settled, as stated. We observe a statement in some of the United States papers that the matter between the President of Texas and Gen. Duff Green, which led to the revocation of the exequa i s t ur e loefftthe that latter,an has ic a " d s j e u t s t t l m ed e , n " t an h d as t in ferencehbeeenmade of the whole affair, to the satisfaction of the amble been Pre sident—We are informed that no adjustment of any kind, further than appears from the proclamation, has ever been made of the matter, unless a remark of the President that he regretted the necessity which com pelled him to take the course he did, may be so consi dered. Neither he nor his friends believe that the pro clamation: was predicated upon any misapprehension or insufficient cause whatever. The American Minister, we have understood, entertains similar views.

Church Farm, Barton Stacey, near Andover Railway Station, Hants, October 26, 1844, Sir,—l cannot help expressing my astonishment in the effect I have experienced in taking your Pills for the Gout. I was taken on Thurs day night so severely with it as to be with difficulty able to get out of my bed, and atter I arose I had severe pains, followed on with in flammation of the foot increasing. I took three of your Pills, and within two hours I found the pain to entirely cease. I afterwards took two Pills at a dose twice in the day, and I am, thank God, this morning able to walk without the slightest inconvenience. I. found in a previous very severe attack very great relief; I had the pains in my knees and thighs so very severe at that time, I thought I must have died, and that it must have .gone into my stomach. At that time I had resort to your Pills, and they relieved me—within two hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought, really, to be known all over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that suffers horribly with it, and his greatest relief and preventive has been your Pills. Make what use you please of my report.-1 ours truly and respectfully, WILLIAM COURTNEY. Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none have contributed so much to the comfort and case of the community, nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the impor tant discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS, he efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recom mendation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effec tive for gout and rheumatism, in all its various forms, including sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth-ache, &c. They require ,neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking - the stomach, brain, or other vital part. Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and, by his appoint ment, by all respectable medicine vendors throughout the United Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

The people are opposed to the Bill of annexation, and the opposition is gaining ground.

THE IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE FROM TEXAS. HOSTILITY OF THE GOVERNMENT TO AN NEXATION. W e give, in another column, late and highly important intelligence from Texas, from which it would appear that annexation is as far off as ever. The organ of the government—the National Register—is, it will be seen, exceedingly bitter and determined in its expression of hostility to the House resolutions, and it is quite appa rent that so far as the Executive of Texas is concerned, the terms offered by the Congress of the United States will be rejected with the utmost scorn. We are strongly inclined to believe that the article in the Register was written by President Jones himself. It is couched in his style, and there can be no doubt that it ex• presses his sentiments. How the mass of the people are disposed to treat the matter remains to be seen; but whatever the decision of the popular will may be, the completion of the measure may be now regarded as in definitely postponed. It will be recollected that immediately on the passage of the resolution leaving to the President the choice of the alternatives, the House Resolutions, as they are called, bein g th e one , an d Mr. Renton's bill the other, Mr. Tyler selected the former, which it now appears was (From N. 0. Republican, March 14.) Papers from Galveston to the Bth inst., and from Washington (the capital) to the Ist inst., have reached us by the steamship New York. It appears that some of the Texans are not at all pleased with the terms of annexation contained in the resolutions just passed. They look at the measure as a one-sided affair al together, and that they would be sadly . shorn by their big sister Republic, in their acquiescing in the sacrifice of their customs, dues, public property, &c. &c., as the price of their admission into the Union. The National Register is really savage at " the actual pit and grave of insignificence and infamy," which these resolutions, as it states, would plunge the Textan nation. The Regist er , however, is the organ of the anti-annexationists, wh o are but an insignificant fraction of the people. The Galveston News still advocates the cause of an nexation. _ would look in at the Exeter ---FsPitleymfooruathneloßpolset-boaffivece.p.urwcheatid.shbysosmuebscrip -I---"---hae tion, mem berone,owf t h e e n g th u e ra c a le n r e k S s oc a l r e e ty hu ddle d together in that hole, and calculate , how long it would take to poison them off by want of room and air. It appears to be one of the best rooms for breeding fever that could be well de- Tiii4.---WMCT rillifil general appropriation Act of the last Congress authorises the payment of 137,340 dolls., which seems to be nearly the whole amount of the annual charge of the Republic. The export of provisions is becoming a leading feature the gemulerce of Texas, e • gt 71.41 the unpalatable to Teyta. What fa• the natant) • •rence if the Executive of Texas refuses to annex on these terms ? Why, anotheie.p ent U tcWd 'aDl 4 4 l lkeihe people, and the probability is,\that-tito-12iItueiia the Government, and various otherlAttiatieixtriiN eto defeat the project altogether. - There certainly cannot be any doubt that the resolutions are less favourable to Texas than the treaty rejected by the Senate, and con templated by Mr. Benton's resolutions, which were to negotiate on the same principles. And it was very well known at the time, in well-informed quarters, that the feeling in Texas was likely to run counter to the reso lutions selected by Mr. Tyler. It would appear, therefore, that Mr. Tyler and Mr. Calhoun, in selecting that alternative, had some inkling, probably through Duff Green, that such a proposition would be negatived by the Government of Texas, and was not likely to please the people, and that by selecting it the whole annexation question would be again thrown before the people, in our elections throughout the coun try, and that thus the question would remain as unsoiled as ever. The conduct of Mr. T. ) ler, and the hazty man ner in which he dispatched his messenger to r lie Govern ment of Texas, after selecting the worst mid most un palatable resolutio - ns, would thus; seem to imply that he did not wish to see the question settled, and desired tl, take it out of the hands of Mr. Polk altogether, leaving it to popular discussion for future direction. It would appear, from a recent vote in secret session of the Senate, made public the other day, that the Pre sident is prohibited from selecting any ether mode of annexation, so that in ..very point of view, and on ail bands, the question is afloat again. —When we take all this into consideration —the movements in South Caro lina hostile to Mr. Polk—the determination of the Whig party to resist annexation to the latest gasp—and various other matters ; we arc very much inclined to believe that annexation is as far off as ever, and that the battle must be fought over agai n . _ (Fromi the . Nero—York Herald.) The. Texas Nat;onal Register, a paper recently esta blished at the capital, contains a long and able article on the Annexation Bill, which was then known to hare passed the United States' House ef Representatives, and which afterwards became a law. It opposes it very bitterly, on the ground that too much is required of Texas, and too little is yielded to her. The sacrifice of her nationality, the ending of her stipulations with foreign Powers, the surrender of the public property, and the other conditions demanded are thought too great a price to pay for the privilege of being admitted as a State at some future time, if the United states' Go vernment see fit to do so. The same paper publishes the following paragraph by way of er,mment upon the propositions made in England to repeal the duty on cotton :—The political importance of its speculations is entirely nullified by the prospect that the cotton of the United States, as well as that of Texas, will be admitted to the hen .fit of this new regulation. " The removal of this duty on cotton will enable the British Government to throw vast commercial advantages into the hands of the merchants and planters of Texas. We have every reason to believe, that if we conclude to remain independent, this duty will be removed from all Texas cotton introduced into English ports, while it will be retained upon that produced in the United States. Under this discrimination in our favour, may be also embraced sugar and tobacco. In this way, our rival ship with the United States will be almost instanta neously established ; for, under such an arrangement, they wculd gain by the change an increase of profits of not less than forty per cent. per annum." The UNITED STATES AND MEXICO.--The Notional Intelligeneer of yesterday morning, in one of those well considered articles, which distinguish it as an intelligent and Ltatestnaulike journal, after adverting to the remark able fact that while hazarding all the chances of war with Mexico, by the proposal to annex Texas, Congress has actually cut down the appropriations both fur Army and Navy—asks this significant question : " Should Mexico at once (as is altogether possible) issue her commissions, and, lending her flag to the pri vateers ef all countries, let them loose upon our trade, what is to be done ? Is the President of the United States to make war of his own authority ? Can he do so with no appropriations except those for a state of peace ?" - Who shall answer ? And if there be no authority and no means to resist aggression without convening a special Session of Congress, what is our position ? OCEAN STEAMERS.—The organisation of the lines of American ocean steamers is.nearly complete. We shall soon have three or four fine steam packets plying regu larly between New York and Liverpool. (From the New York Tribune.) WASHINGTON, MARCH 19.—S. S. Southworth, now of the New York Custom-house, was to-day appointed con sul to Japan. I believe this is a new office. Mr. Zadock Pratt wanted to have it made a full mission. MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTH CAROLINA.—The fol lowing order, adopted in the House of Representatives of Massachusets on Wednesday, will show the stand which that State has determined to take in respect to the matters in controversy between her and South Carolina : " Ordered, That the Committee to whom was referred the message of the Governor upon the subject of the treatment of the lion. Samuel Hoar, in South Carolina, be directed to report to the Legislature, resolves to the following effect, viz. : " That Massachusetts is restrained from further pre sent action in behalf of her citizens imprisoned in South Carolina solely on account of their colour, and from the exercise of her own powers to protect the commerce of her citizens, by her unwillingness to do the slightest vio knee to the Constitution of the United States, the pro tection of which she is claiming for her own citizens in the premises. " That South Carolina having, by her constituted au thorities, interfered to prevent access- to the Courts of the United States within her territory, it becon.es the duty of the General Government to afford to the citi zens of our Commonwealth, while in another State, all the rights guaranteed to them by the constitution of the United States; " And that Massachusetts now demands, and will con tinue to demand, that the General Government make such change in the jurisdiction of the federal courts, or such provisions by law, as will enable any citizens of Massachusetts, who may hereafter be imprisoned in any other State solely on account of his colour, to urge his claim to liberty and protection in the courts of the United States ; and that cur senators and representa tives be requested to lose no opportunity of urging this subject upon the consideration of Congress."—New York, March 20. (Correspondence of the Ti ibune.) WASHINGTON, MARCH 22, 1845.—We have an inte resting item of news to-day, which is. that M. Bodisco, the Russian Ambassador, has formally entered a protest with our Government on behalf of the Emperor of Russia against the annexation of Texas. Though but a rumour, the source from which it comes entitles it to con sideration. I understand that letters have been received from our Charge at Texas (or the locust tenens of the Chargiahip, in the absence of Major Donelson, whom we are paying to be there), stating that the people of Texas will not accept our proposition for annexation. It may be that the star of Texas will yet refuse to shine in our constellation. MEXICAN AFFAIRS.—The New Orleans Picayune of the 12th Inst., gives the following paragraph : We learn that the Mexican Consul in this city, Senor Anaugoiz, has received instructions to close the Consu. late in this city, and that he intends doing so before the close of the month. TEXAS.--The National Intelligencer copies the stric tures of the Texan papers on the subject of Annexation with this remark :—" Our readers must receive a dif ferent impression from the perusal of them than we do, if they can imagine any form. of annexation whatever, that the United States could possibly agree to, which would be acceptable to, or !Incepted by, the authors of these commentaries."- MONEY MARKET, MARCH 29. 15,000 United States 6's '62 5,080 New York State s's '5B 1,000 Ohio 6's '56 000 Kentucky 6's 1011 97 101 ~000 Illinois Special % 4llr 0,000 Penn. s's b3o 761 25 Shares Mech.

If any further evidence was required of the virtues of bear's grease for renovating and preserving the hair, Mr. Catlin's account of the quantity used, and the length of hair obtained by some of the North Ame rican Indians, would be a sufficient answer. Ross and Sons, 119 and 120, Bishopsgate-street, who first intro duced the use of bear's grease in this country, and who fat and kill the animals, recommend the public to pur chase none other but with their names and . address printed on th e p o t, or t h e c h ances are their obtaminga i spurou s article.

Our reason for mentioning Duprez in print, Is clearly displayed in the following hint : This singer, whose voice can be rivalled by none, Should sing a choice song for E. MOSES and SON. Such extensive commercial achievements as ours Are rusted to such a choice vocalist's powers ; What thousands of people would throng Drury-lane, • If Duprez were to sing Messrs. MOSES a strain ; And how would the crowding assemblage rejoice, To hear him thus nobly employing his voice. A thing such as this might be very soon done. For the words could be written by MOSES and SON; And the wonderful singer himself could prepare A touching, a bold, and a suitable air. Such words and such music, with choice adaptation, • Would obtain for the singer increased approbation; And a merited honour would also be done To the trading achievements of MOSES and SON.
