uaIly. The difficulty is, our Statesmen
are wasting their energies and their skill
In VAIN efforts to reconcile in one govern
ment, two principles that are eternal an
tagonisms. The elashing will neve
cease, till one or the other is annihilated

4 The National IntelIigencer of the Eth
ut., gives most Furnishing account Of
7 the condition of Texas. According TO
this, TIE land is the best in the world for
all sorts of purposes the titles are per
tecty secure; all the world is moving
INTO Texas; every body is prosperous
Mexico won't dare to point her finger
Gen. Houston has left off drinking and
swearing; and religion is fourishing be-
yond all account, The shrewdest specu-
lator in Texan lands, or the wlyest slave
holder, anxious to grasp at the last chance
for his beloved institution, coald not have
written the article better. These people
understand their cunning moves well.
{ In the Senate of the United States the
game of exciting hostility to Mexico con,
TIMES to be played with all diligence.
Mr.. Clay can by no means leave his post
till he has declared that "there IS more
danger Of soar aciM MEXICO than aotth
Engtamd.' Yes; for very good reason.
! Eng land is strong and Mexico is weak.
Oh, we are rnagnanimous nation -
Yet we will not make an open attack
upon our friendly and comparatively weak
neighbor, if we can manage to avoid the
! i'll appearance of the thing. Perhaps
Gen. Houston's proclamation, earnestly
inviting "emigran.s" from the United
States, will answer all purposes. Emf
grants" they are, forsoot! And what
harm IS there in emigratsng? 1t is true
they are requested to come in bands ofJf
ty and bring abundan: supplies of arms
and ammunition. What. then! Viii
cowardIy, cruel, perfdous Mexico" dare
to impeach the honor of the United States
If she does, she does it at the point O.
Mississippi rifes-that's all we have tc
say.
This subject has so very important q
bearing on the question of slavery, thai
we have thought it best to give the whole
of Santa Annals digni6ed correspondence
with Bee and Hamilton. The full history
o. shameful aegressions On Mexico is We
TO be revealed We connot wonder at thu
ferocious excitement that exists in tina
country against Texas and her American
allies. Half the provocation they haV'
had, would have stimulated our southwest
ern population to deeds thai savages nigh
blush TO own.
1t is worthy Of comment that Mexico
fights for freedom, and Texas, with he
American allies, for sIarery. The pro
LESSONS made by Santa Anna with regar
y y to aboIishing slarery IN TEXAS deserve t
be relied on, because they are in perfec
accordance with his whole system OF leg
slation in his own country.-National A
S. Standard.
WHAT IS PUSEYISM!
This question is often asked in thi
country since the commencement of tn
