TO doubt, since the editors Of the Tropic not
only vouch for the veraciiy Of their cores
pondeni, but assert that "his means Of pro-
curing authentic information are equal to
those Of any gentlemen in the Republic'') in
a few days, doubtless, a full revelation will
be made at Washington city. Till then we
forbear all further comment, trusting for the
honor Of humanity, it may prove that some
misconceplion has been made ofihe conduct
and designs Of President Houston.
The following is an extract Of the letter
in the New Orleans Tropic referred 10 a.
bove.
GALVESTON, Oct l3, 1913.
To THE EDrroRs OF THE TRoPIc Gen.
Murphy: U. States Charge TO Texas, has left
the seat of Government, (Washingion,) and
is now in this city. Strange rumors are afloat
about the cause Of his removal from
ihence-and other matters in connection
herewith. Mr.. Abel, bearer Of the des-
patches for the United States Government,
who was wrecked on the Sarah Barnes, will,
| hope, be more fortunate on the schooner
Galveston, which conveys this letter, and
reach his Government in safety. On his ar
rival at Washington city, there will be some
strange developments made public, which
are topics of daily conversation in Texas
Although you will discover nothing but DARK
HINTS from the press, will draw aside the
veil, Messrs. Editors, for your especial bene-
fl, as remember TO have seen in your paper
frequent predictions ofihe very treason which
have now the modification TO announce
Il is this: That General Murphy suspected
some secret Vaccinations between the Brit
ish and Texan Governments, highly detri
mental to the United States interests, and
forthwith set about discovering the nature Of
The mystery. This be was enabled TO do du-
ring President Housion's absence at the In
dian Treaty Ground--he being furnished
with well authenticated and undoubied
copies of the entire reasonable corespon-
dence held by the President with the repre-
seniativcs Of the British aud Mexican Gov
enmenis-binding himself TO send commits
sions 10 recognize the nominal sovereignty
Of Mexico, provided that Government, will
ibereupon cede Texas TO Great Britain, for
a consideration Texas will then be Bit
ISL province, by cessi0n from Mexico, and
consent of the Executive Of the Republic -
the confirmation ofthe Senate and sanction
OF the people can be relied on, (iti is suppos-
cd,) after sustaining the ordeal which The
President has led them through. Once
province Of Great Britain, and the immedi-
ate abolition OF slavery follows as matter Of
course; but consideration . secured for the
shareholders. Free ports, cheap goods, snug
Cling, and the consequent influx ofEuropean
population, will soon compensate the people
for the empty name Of Reptile, which has

TITLE, viii bfibe Houston 10 sell his co1n-.
rylll The correspondence which allude
to fully explains the mystery Of The Presi-
dents war against the Navy. The vessels
were 10 he sold in New Orleans last spFing;
after which the Mexican Navy were 10 take
Galveston, aud control the coast; TO be secur-
ed by formidable inland invasion. The
cession TO England was then TO follow, by
agreement; and the people of Texas would
look upon their new masters as very saviours
and adopt amy form Of governgenI that their
deliverers might prescribe. The conmmacy
Of Commodore Moore defeated this well
contrived plan, and he deserves the execra-
ton Of every bver Of the British policy =
| believe that plan is now maturing for the
delivery Of Texas into the hands Of Mexico
this fall. PayGod that the Galveston eau
Gus may prove as successful in ihwarting the
President as Commodore Moore last spring.
| fear that the prolonged detention of Mr..
Abel, bearer If dispatches, viii operate
most iniuriously on the affairs Of Texas, for
things are Fastening to grand denouemeni,
which will prove fatal 10 the young Repub-
lie, unless the Eagle can rescue the victim
from the Lions chwsl
have given You the out lines of the mys-
ferrous and secret policy of President Hous-
ton, which has so long been misinierpreied
by bis friends, and scarce believed possible
by bis enemies. You will learn full particu-
lars from your own government in very
short time, fully confirming all that | have
said, and adding largely to the list Of enormi-
ties attempted to be perPetrated BY President
Houston.
The above facts have been withheld BY the
press in Texas; but as they are topics of dai-
N conversation in be streets, ] see no sc5-
lection to ealing on Louisiana 10 watch her
neighbour You may rest assured, gentlemen
that am retailing to you no vague rumor,
but facts which have been derived from the
most indispuiable source.
