lag. Lieut.. Moore, Of the u. 8 Navy, about ten
days since sent his resignation on to Washington
and thus leaves oar navy to take command Of the
navy OF Texas, which will consist of six or eight
briggs and schooners Of war. Nor is this the only
resignation that will take place; great many valua-
bic officers are preparing to leave navy, in dis
gust at the nsmanagemsnt Of affairs by the old lady
Secretary Of the Navy at wahisngton.
very curious and remarkable correspondence
took place between Mrs. Pauldng and Lieut.. Moore,
On the subject of the lattcrs resignation, which the
old lady secretary is endeavorng to suppress; be-
cause if published, it will expose him to the laugh
tor and contempt of the whole community. But the
correspondence must be published, nevertheless ,
and hereby offer a reward Of $50 to any ocofoco
clerk in the Navy Department at Washington, who
will send us a copy of this remarkable cores
pondence. And there is, therefore, doubt that
we shall obtain a copy Of the correspondence under
the CIRCUMSTANCES because few locofoces resist
bride Of $50, and many would sell their brother,
besides throwing in couple of Cousins gratis, for
less than that amount
The Navy of Texas will be a very efficient ore,
and the more so as it will be Offered by gallant
Americans. They want but six vessels to sweep
their foes from the Mexican gulf and they will do it,
In the time the Mexcans have also their agents
amongst US, who are trying purchase
several small schooners and briggs for Mexican men
of war But we advise all ship-masters to sell them
vessels unless they get the money down; if they

cause the Texans will take them all and strengthen
their fleet, and enrich themselves and not only BY
sea do the Mexicans mean to make demonstration
against Texas, but, from the movements Of their
agents here and elsewhere, there 10 ne doubt that
Santa Ana intends to send large expedition against
Texas by land. So much the better. His emmissa-
ries are running hther and thher to get the means
to make an invasion and the sooner they consun-
mate their plans the better for Texas. This will be
the signal for general effort the part of the Text
ans, and the result Of their rising will be the inya
sion Of Mexico, the overthrow Of the Mexican go
vernment, soldiers and authsrites and the proudly
planting of the solitary starag of Texas on the walls
OF the city OF Moctezuma, where it will float in tr-
umph ever after. This will be as it ought to be. We
Ango-Saxons ought to have that country, and all
southern America down to the Brazls. The Goths,
enough, and now it is our turn. The Spaniards
have had every chance; they have had undsputed
possession, for centuries, Of the finest tracts Of
country in the wsrd, and they have been pest and
a scourge thereto. The Anglo-Saxon race will SUI
persede hem and render the whole Of the fine south
ern and central regions Of America, what God i'm
tended they should be, the most delightful parts
Of this great and glorious globe. The Mexcans have
too much dark blood in their veins, and too much
wool on their hair II is time for white men to enter
and rule the land.
