OPPONENTS OF ANTExATIoN.-Ihe following resolutions, passed at meeting ill Massachusetts, point very clearly to what portion of the community we may look for the most bitter opposition to the Annexation of Texas Can the people of the south ever unite upon any man for the Presidency who would attempt to eonciliae, intrigue for the sup port of, such men as the authors of these resolu- tions. Here they are:
 ''Rcsolccd. That Texas with her lawless population of renegade ruflian adventurcrs her mock republican constitution decreeme eternal slavery to the colored race, and hel desperate insolvency, is a sheer burlesque upon the very name republic, disgrace te the civilized world, and utterly unft.to be associated with any but the most incorrigible slaveholding states.
 ReSoired. That the annexation of Texas to the United States was projected, and will be accomplished, solely by the selfish mach nation of slave holders and their pliant in- struments in the national councils, in order to augment their already overgrown political power, and so enlarge the theatre of their ne furious traffic in the sinews and souls oI men,"
 The earth is our work-house, but Heaven is our store house. Our chief business here should be to lay up treasure there

How detestable is that spirit of party which can extend its vituperaon to the venerable sage of the Hermitage at this period of his life. He is on the brink of the grave, asks no office from the people, no further honors from his country, and yet Weed, Ca bitter indeed, of the Albany Journal, in re- ation to Gen. Jacksons letter the subject of the "bargain and intrigue" talks thus:
 ..Bnl those who profted by the lie in 1928, want the benefit of 1t again. And Gen. Jack son, without {. facts'' and without < circum- stances" becomes himself the accuserl He will, however, find the public mind less dis tempered now than heretofore. The day of delusion has passed.

These tights, with occasional music in the public grounds from the marine band, and the smiles of the fair sex, who have several Fairs i'll full tide of experiment., serve some- what to banish the eui which warm sum- mer's evening creates. A group of statuary has just been placed at the east front of the capitol, representing the landing of Colum- bus. It is executed in marble by Signor Persico, an Italian of great talent, and has clcited the admiration of every one who lays claim to the possession of a correct knowledge of the fine arts. Greenough's Washington sinks into insignilicance when compared to the work of the Italian, but hope he will endeavor to ''do better next timco Mo sheet is out.
