SIR -
By the ship Adelaide at this port from Havana, an(
a communication which rv1ues. YOU to insert in YOU
columns confound those in the United States who may
have believed that the Mexican government esteemed
ciate her rights
N. ALMoNrE.
The substance Of the communication alluded &c
is that the Mexican Government will resist any al
tempt made to connect Texas and the United States

cretary of Foreign Affairs in Mexico, tells Senior AL
monte, in the strongest terms, that Mexico will never
assent to the anneXation-that the government ano
the nation are determined to resist the project,
reject all proposals for its contamination, whether
accompanied by offers of compensation or other
wise. General Almontc is instructed to contradic
any assertion or intmatien of different characte
10 this
This sets at rest all the bugbear storie
relative to the assent Of Mexico. What the govern
ment ofthat republic may do, hereafter, in the mat
ter, remains to be seen. In the mean time it woult
be well to read in another part of to-day's paper

agent in Texas relative to this annexation question
