4%The envious Editor of the Gazette can not conceal his chagrin at the kind courtesies which have been rendered to us by our Edi- torial brethren; and affects sheer because we have made the usual acknowledgment, by copying them into our own columns He is to be pitied and excused, however, upon the plea, which charity puts in for him, that having never received a compliment himself, from any quarter, he is incapable of approaching it when offered to another, or of understanding why or how it should be ac- knowledged.

MEXICAN RELATIoNs.-A very spirited correspondence has recently passed between Mir Upshur, our Secretary of State, and Gen. Alfaoatc, the Mexican Minister, in relation to the annexation of Texas. The letters of Mr Upshur speak the language of an American statesman and patriot, devoted to the best and broadest interests of free government, and the dignity and honor of his own country. He speaks language to the Mexican Minister, and his Government, which they will be like ly to remember, and, it is hoped, they will profit by. He denies the right of Mexico to question our Government as to our intentions toward any independent and sovereign State, as Texas is; and says we will treat with her without consulting the wishes of Mexico, or any other power. In conclusion, he tells Gen. Almonte, that if Mexico have any cause of complaint against the United States, and will make it known, full justice shall be done her

An extensive and experienced COu| sion House, at New Orleans, writes under a recent date, as follows
 " The Cotton market is very brisk and prices high. We have great confa in the article and think prices will k tained throughout the season, and Prd advance.o
 These opinions are confirmed by @| lowing:

SPEAK OUT!-The Editor of the Gazette, with the native 'sinstinct" of skulking coon, attempts to dodge the issue we presented him, on the annexation of Texas; and ..pal- ters in a double sense,'' by calling 1t a ..deli- cate question:" But this pitiful equivocation shall not serve his purpose-shall not screen hlm from the responsibility, he so much fears, of meeting this question openly, and taking position for or againstit.
 His long quotation, from the Gazette of September, does not meet the issue now be- fore the country, and which we proposed to him. The question is different one now from what it was then, and greatly more pres sing and important. We did not ask him what he thought in September, when the sub ject was but little agitated; but we ask him what he thinks, and intends to do, now, when it is before the country, and must be met
 Now, we call upon the Editor of the Ga zette to answer the following questions:
 What does he mean by this being "a deli cate question"
 Will he support Mr. Clay, for the Presi- dency, if that gentleman opposes the anne&a- ton of Texas to the Union:
 For ourselves, we consider this measure of far greater importance, to the welfare of our country, than the election of any man to any office; and do not hesitate to say that We will oppose any man who opposes it.
 Will the Gazette, now, speak out, as be- comes an independent press; disregarding the individual interests of Mr. Clay, and the ter TOTS of the Louisville Journal? Again we pause for reply.

TExAs.-The New Orleans Republican, of the 5th December, quotes from the Hous- ton (Texas) Telegraph, to shew that both the Executive and Congress of that Republic are favorable to annexation; and only wait the proposition from the United States.

CONGRESSIONAL PRocEEDINGs.-In our report of Congressional proceedings, we condense from the Washington papers, gi- wing such matters, only, as seem to us most interesting to our readers. When any de- bate of peculiar interest shall take place, or any speech oi special value be made, in Con- gress. we will give Il place.
 In our present number, the reports are not up with the latest Washington dates-which are to Dec. 20. The omission, however, is not oi much importance; as almost all that has yet been done, by the two Houses. is merely preliminary to the business of the session. The only matters of much interest. before either House, is Mr. M'DurrIE's movement in the Senate in favor of reyiying the s'Compromise Tariff Act;n and move ments in both Houses in favor of the occu- pancy of Oregon.

We copy the following, and especially the last, for the benefit of our dsficate neighbor of the Gazette. Thus, he may know, in due time, what awaits him, if he should advocate the occupancy of Oregon, or the annexation of Texas-and most particularly, if he should dare to say that Mir. Clay Is in favor of the latter measure. Truly '' delicate subject" Is 1t not, neighbor?
 We must repeat our solemn conviction that good policy forbids the Government of the United States to offer any encouragement to emigration from this country to Oregon.n

Before, We thought he was only making himself ridicu- Ious; but now, 1t requires much charity not to believe that he had rather be considered in his statements, than illogical in his arguments.
