From the (.Mo. Old School Denoe
TEXAS-SLAVERY.

The following sensible and patriotic remarks
are copied from the Mississippi Free Trader,
published At Nalchez. That paper is not the
advocate OF President Tyles's reelection, but in
this instance (and probably in others) has done
justice to him and 10 the accomplished Secreta-
ry of State, in the sentiments and opinions ad-
vanced
We say to our readers again, this is an i'm
porant subject and must be conxidered.
"TExAs, ENGLAND AND THE uNlrED STATass
We are very happy to perceive fromFa recent
able article 10 the Madisonian. that ouvz Govern
ment has its eye on the evident dseigW enter
tanned BY England upon Texas. Hntimatlons
are thrown out that our Ministers in Texas and
London have been fully instructed on'the sub
ject. We have every confidence IN the distin-
guished statesman who now conducts our sfo-
reign affairs. Enjoying, as he does, the entire
confidence of the President, and fully sustained
as he will be by him in every measure for the
protection of our institutions, we doubt not that
the interference or non interference of England
with the independence Of Texas and the rights
Of its citizens, will b. made question Of peace
or aodr England designs the abolition Of sla-
very in Texas first, and then she will seize the
first opportunity TO engage US in servile war;
Her projet must be crushed in the bud. We
must acl upon the celebrated principle laid down
by, Monroe, and forbid her interference with the
affairs OF this Continent. THIS is juncture
which demands renewal of that National de-
claration. The country is prepared for it, We
shall look for it in the next Message Of Presi-
dent Tyler. We have every confidence in his
firm determination TO defend American interests
on the broadcast possible scale; and we doubt
not that the instructions given by the Secretary
of State to our diplomalists abroad, when pub
lished, will be responded to in one general burst
of enthusiasm and appreciation, by two-ihirds
of the American people"

of the United States, she might by an adroit
policy aided by the jealousies and disputes like
" soon 10 arise between conteTmlnous indepen-

Hence The determination to recognise slave

the subsequent and constant interference, and
show of interest, by Great Britain, IN the affairs
of Texas; until al length her object is plainly

fish Government is ''to sOlre that great CUES

"POOR ATTEMPT AT DECEPTION"

TWIN Al "a II DLNEE MN
Such are the terms made use Of by the Globe
of yesterday, in response to our exposure OF its
bad faith TO Mr.. Van Buren,, in copying the
very remarkable production Of Elias Ellis, Esq.
without deprecatory comment. 1t is true we
felt no particular interest in the matter but we
could not help remarklng that il was most ex-
traordinary occurrence. to see such an ungloreA
argument against Mr.. Van Burens nomination
published in the Globe without editorial com
ment. And what rendered the occurrence still
more extraordinary, was that the Globe had
given notice that communications favorable 10
any candidate which detrac,ed from the merits
or prospects Of the rest, would not be admitted.
B&a lie editor endea~Ors 10 excuse himself by
saying that he was particularly requested to
copy the proceedings entire. Now, the commu-
nication Of Mr. Ellis formed no part ofthe pro-
ceedings Of the meeting besides, the Richmond
Enquirer was likewise requested to copy them,
and did copy them, bat not the red hot argu.
ment against Mr.. Ton Buren,
| Since writing the above, we have received
the Pittsburg Democratic papers, which fully
expose the trickery and treachery of the Globe.
No man will longer doubt that the Globe is play
ing an unfair game. The papers alluded to
| (tbree Of them) are literally filled with the vo
luminous proceedings of meeting of the De-
mocracy of Pttsburg, which express in no eoui-
vocal manner just indignation at the conduct
| OF the Globe in refusing to insert certain arti-
cles favorable to MIR. Buchanan, the great
statesman, and favorite of The great State of
Pennsylvania.
We copy one of the resolutions, adopted
unanimously:
Resolved That the Globe newspaper has hitherto
been considered in the light of the Organ of the Dem
ocratic party and has been fostered sustained and
supported by the party at large, and not by any
ton of the same, and that while admit the right
of its editors to give their views freely upon the sub
ect of the Presidential contest deeply regret their
want of frankness and manness exhibited in their
excluding from their columns articles calculated to
prove to the nation at large the policy of sustaining
Mr. Buchanan for the Presidency.
Thus it appears that while The Globe has re
fused to insert communications in favor Of Mr..
Buchanan, ii has admitted others assailing Cal
houn, Tyler and Van Buren,
