MR.. CLAY AND TEXAS,

The following extract from the IN. Y. True
Sun is, wo have no doubt, true evory word of
it. Mr.. Clay hurried through the South, so rap
idly that he could not have free intercourse with
the people, and the "great leaders" of localities,
The "Small Potatoes " of the Wing party to make
great display before their " "honored visitor -
rather hastily. ley now discovered, informed Mr..
Clay, before tney were informed themselves, of
the sentiments of the people on the subject of an.
nexation-,hey deceived him. He now seeks
Ashland to rent his dissatisfaction at the state of
affairs and to curse the vanity of his subalterns.
=" Mr.. Clay left Washington highly dissatisfied
with the state of affairs, and chiefly with his ow
action on the Texas question. Before leaving he
stated openly in conversation, that he had been
deceived, (not Intentionally and msIed bv the
representations of Southern Wings, who assured
him that the question possessed no strength in the
South. Under this impression and with their IN
probation, he wrote his Texas letter, taking what
would be natural whig ground, independent of nd
pular influence, and he finds that had he taken
a bold stand for Texas, his victory would have
been assured. The same applies to Mr.. Van Bu.
rem. Politicians of both sides daily arriving here
from Kentucky, agree in stating that Butler (dem)
will be elected in that Sate solely on the strength
of the Texas question, and that the popular feel.
ing runs so high on that subject, that at a late
mass meeting, held irrespective of party, an ad
ministration man offered q resolution in favor of
the President.
"The managers on Soth sides were frightened,
and desired him to withdraw it, but he continued
firm, and it was passed unanimously, approaching
The course of John Tyler. This was owing soie
ly to the inherent strength of the question, for
there was not half dozen Tyler men in the meet.
ing. 1t is further estimated that the population
of Texas contains upwards of two thousa nd Young
Kentuckisns-of course they are related in almost
every family of the State, and hence another
cause of popular feeling in favor of annexation. ;"

0TWe recommend the subjoined extract from
the New Orleans Bulletin, to the reading of all
those who deny that England intends TO inter-
fore unduly" in the annexation question; especial
y to those small politicians here "a ways, who af-
firm that this question is one of "humbug," and
that 1t is measure Of little or no Importance
1t appears that this great humbug," this Texan
affair. does engross the attention of the greatest
minds in our country, and produces very great
excitement in Europe. We earnestly en.reat the
little warriors in politics about here, who oppose
this popular and national measure, to extend their
vision, or get them telescope of information, so
that they maysee little farther ahead of their
own noses, before they pronounce the Texas ques-
ton q "humbug;' not that their vision of the
matter will at all affect the question, but that they
may desist from their unblushng and absurd abuse,
denials, and assertions that this question is an
"exploded humbug," or if they really think it an
exploded thing, that they may, by seeing farther,
conceal their ignorance.
"We intend at future day to speak at length
of the Treaty, the Presidents Message and the ac.
companying documents. Meanwhile, we offer the
following view Of the letter of Lord Aberdeen to
our feow.citizens as are disposed to think that
letter satisfactory disclaimer of intermeddling
and improper intentions the par, of England
Suppose in an official dispatch, matter how pro
voked from the Secretary of State of the United
States 10 the British Minister, the language and
sentiments of Lord Aberdeen were thus parodied :
1.-The Government Of the United States have no
disposition or intention to interfere improperly be-
tween the Bristish Crown and of its oppressed
| clhi tNa
dispute between England and Ireland at the same
time, the President wishes it understood by Grea,
Britain and the world, that the feelings and opn-
ions of the people Of the United States are entire
ly adverse to all political institutions which do not
conform TO their own, and that it is the settled pur
pose OF this Government to encourage everywhere
the destruction Of Arstocratica and Mona rchical
Establishments" Would not such declaration,
officially made, excite the Indignation and remon.
strances of all Europe, and make our public
agents and representatives, abroad objects Of Just
suspicion and dislike 2"
