rlors, for your especial benefit, as remem-
'n have seen in your paper frequent pre-
.,;,os of the very treason which nave now
.", ro,,i6ca,ion to announce. 1t is this:
H., General Murphy suspected some secret
,ss;na,ions between the British and Texan
c, ,s highly detrimental to the Uni
AZ a,es interests, and forthwith set about
,s0verinu The nature Of the mystery. This
was enabled to do during President Hous.
W., absence a, the Indian Treaty Ground
sbsing furnished with well authenticated and
a,ioabled copies of the entire reasonable cor
,snoudence he'd by the President with the
s1esnta,ives of the British and Mexican
Cr,emmeu,s binding himself to send com.
Es;ons 10 recognize the nominal sovereignty
Mexico, provided that Government will
,peupon cede Texas TO Great Britain, for
konsde,a,iou! Texas will then be British
pvnce, by cessjon from Mexico. and consent
/ The Executive of the Republic! the confir-
nation of the Senate and sanction of the peo-

'aopg The ordeal which the President has led
hem through Once province of Great Brit
ii, and The immediate abolition Of slavery fol-
tys as matter Of course; but considcra-
eus secured fur the Shareholder. Free ports,
heap goods, smuggling, and the consequent
fx Of European population, will soon COM
ema'e the people for the empty name OF Re'
Hbtc which has Knocked their ears during

panding title, will bribe Houston TO SELL HIS

ansu, and the people Of Texas would look
lon their new masters as very saviours, and

ommodore Moore defeated this we'll conlrved

Fu Of the British policy" believe that

have given you the outlines Of the mystic
bus and secre. policy of President Houston,
heb has so long been misinterpreted by his
lends, and scarce believed possible by his

u own Government in a very short time,
confirming all that have said, and ad-
}. largely to the list Of enormities attempted
De perpetra,ed by President Houston.
The above facts have been withheld by the
us in Texas; but as they arc topics OF dali
saaversation in the streets, see no objec-
scaling on Louisiana to watch her neigh

sn 'etaihg to you no vague rumor, bnt facts
