TEXAS, MEXICO, AND THE UNITED STATES.
Tho latest intelligence from Texas and Mexico
presented the head of this paragraph in points of view
to which this nation cannot be Indifferent
With regard to Texas, it is clear that there is no
efficient government no subordination, authority, or
degree. The Chief Executive issues orders to the
commander Of the naval Forces which he refuses to
obey, and pleads the presence board his squadron
OIL special commission authorizing him to carry into
effect Il secret act OF Congress
The President of the Republic denounces the ma
val commander as outlaw, and calls upon the
powers of all friendly nations to seize upon and
deliver him and his vessels to the authorities of
Texas.
The naval commander says he goes to make 'one
desperate effort to turn the tide Of i'll fortune that
seems to set against Texas; and that desperate effort
consists IN fight, neither long nor bloody, and
lacking every element Of desperation, with the
Mexican fleet; and so matters remained at the last
dates.
Texas, therefore, unless upheld and sustained
from without, must fall into anarchy, unless indeed
as is conjec'ured by the New Orleans papers, the
proceedings Of Houston have been adopted in con-
cert with Great Britan and the British rigate Spar
tan; which left Galveston some days before the
proclamation against Moore was made public, had
copies of it, and that in consequence the British fore
es might under it detan Com. Moore and his squad
Mexico, or her chief Santa Anna, shows at once
her good faith towards the United States and the ut
ter arrangement of her financial condition. in the de-
cree for forced loan to pay the due to this
country.
However policy at home, or the jealousy of other
nations may condemn this act of Santa Anna it shuts
the mouth of Americans for it is the EXTREMIST mea-
sure which any nation can adopt to satisfy the claims
Of another-New York American.

IMPORTATION OF WOOL.

The effect of the late Tariff on the importation Of
cheap WOOL may be judged from the following, from
the Massachusetts Spy. At Boston,
From Sept. l, 1S4l, to lbs. value.
March 81, 1912,
there imported 2,952,20 $l97IIO
From Sept. l, 1912, to
March 81, iS43,
there was imported 533,445 25,0l0
-
Making difference OF 2,3l9,055 $I75IO5
Here it will be seen that the importation of the low
priced wool has fallen of more than four-frMs in a.
mount and nearly secen-eights in value, during the
first seven months after the tariff.
There is no feature Of the new Tariff that the
loco ioco papers of this State have made more COM
paint than the ate Of duty on wool. With knowl-
edge of the above facts we opine they must change
their tune somewhat The people are fast becoming
convinced that the Tariff we have Is likely to give
much better protection to their interests than its enc
mics prophesied-!St di6ans Messenger

Gov. MCDONALD has vetoed the bill pass
ed by the Georgia Legislature, districtng
the State for the choice of members Of Con-

ture of Georgia is Locofoco, like the Gov

ton that the law of Congress, although En-
pressly authorized by the Constitution, is
unconstitutional. 1t is such S,ate-right
Quixotes, always fitting with windmills, or

DISTURBANCES AT PHlLADELpHlA.-Ther

DISTURBANCES AT PHILADELPHIA.-There
have been serious disturbances at Kensngton,
one of the suburbs Of Philadelphia from turn
out of Viewers. The rioters assembled in large
numbers, armed with stones and clubs, and some
of them with fire arms On Wednesday the
Sheriff arranged civil posse, of two or three
hundred men, and proceeded to the Market
House where the rioters were assembled. He
was assaied BY shovel of stones, and several
discharges of fire arms. The posse was dis
persed by the rioters, and number of them were
struck and knocked down. The Sheriff receiv-
ed several blows, and was considerably injured.
Several OF the rioters were arrested, and the
next day eight of them, on examination, were
committed to trial. On Tuesday body of troops
consisting of nine companies, were ordered out,
on the requistion, and put under the command
of Brigadier- General Cadwaader. 1t was said
that the rioters threatened an attack upon NOV.
amensing prison, and the release of those who
had been committed. Four companies were un.

evening. No acts Of violence were committed
on the following night, and at II o'clock on FRI

hold themselves in readiness TO muster at an
