More about IerdS We learn, since our last,
through private channel, entirely to be relied up
on, that the true information from Mexico is, that
the people Of that country were never more united
than they are in their opposition to surrender of
Texas; that they are determined to listen to no
terms in regard to the project of /" Annexation .
that they contine to regard Texas part of their
territory, and & to a man. prefer war to any com
promise of what they conceive TO be their unques
tionable rights upon the subject.
1t is now perfectly clear, and must be SO even to
those who have hitherto doubted, that if the Sen
ate of the United States had not resisted and de
feated the project of immediate Annexation" we
should have been ct this moment at lGar with Mex
leo. The wisdom & foresight manifested by Mr.Clay
III his Texas letter stand forth in bold relief
Col Benton too, may well congratulate himself on
the share which he has had, by his able and fearless
exposition of the unlawfulness and wickedness OF
this Texas speculation, in the signal defeat and
overthrow which it has sustained in the Senate.
