are bound to restrain the Indian nations Oh our Dor
ders fiom hostilites The fact is, as disclosed by
previous correspondence, that the menace was
meant IN tcrrorem towards Mexico, whence at the
time new invasion of Texas was anticipated.
To cap the climax of national disgrace, our
Minister (Shannon) wrote to the Mexican Minister,
Oct ii, as follows
"The United States cannot while the measure
of annexation is pending, stand quiet by and per-
nit either of these results. 1t has been measure
of policy long cherished, and deemed indspcnsa-
BILE to their safety and welfare and has according
ly been an object steadily pursued by all parties,
and the acquisition of the territory made the sub
ject of negotiation by almost every administration
for the last twenty years"
The Mexican minister replied in letter charac-
terizcd by both ability and severity, triuml hantly
quoting Shannon's avowa as proof that the orgi-
nal occupation of Texas by Americans under the
authority of Mexico, the subsequent rebellion, Tex

MORE MULTIPLICATION IN SOUTH CAR
DINA

Under the laws of South Carolina, any free col
ored man coming to that state as sailor is imprs-
oned while his vessel remains, and unless the costs
of Imprisonment paid on his release the man is
sold into slavery Several of the free coored citi
zens Of Massachusetts have suffered under this
law. thereupon the legislature of Massachusetts
authorized the appointment Of an agent 10 proceed
TO South Carolina to collect facts also to bring
one or more suits before the Courts of South Caro-
lima to test the constitutionaty Of this law; and
in case of an unfaYorablo decision 70 bring the
question ultimately for decision before the Supreme
Court of the United States. Under this authority
and for these purposes, Gov. Briggs appointed Hon
Samuel Hoar, distinguished lawyer and one OF
the most worthy men Of the state, to proceed to
South Carolina as the agent of Massachusetts. On
the 2sth Of November, Mr.. IIoar informed the may
or Of the city Of Charleston and the Governor OF
the state, of his arrival and business. Nov. Both
the Governor informed the Legislature of the mat.
ter, whereupon the chvalry of all the representa-
tiyes Of Quattlebum (save one) at once burst into
blaze, threatening the humiliation not only of Mr.
Hoar, but of Massachusetts, and the Constitution
of the Union ITSELF Resolutions were at once in
troduced and adopted, in the Senate, declaring tina
Massachusetts has no right to require South Caro-
lima to treat Massachusetts negroes as citizens
that South Carolina ought not TO submit to any die
