correspondence OF the Herald

GALVESTON, (Tezas,) April Ia, 1914.
General Position Of the Annerati0n Qmestiom
Tell yosr readers that they need not be afraid OF
annexation. The Texans themselves are turning
against it. President Houston and Capt Elliott,
the British Envoy, ale in partnership getting up
feeling of jealousy and dislike TO the citizens OF the
United States. President Tyler has wished tor an
nexaton on such terms as would be for the good OF
both countries, but Houston is too cunningfor him.
He could not oppose the strong current OF public
sentiment in favor of annexation, but while he
seems to urge the measure forward, he is in fact
silly putting clogs under the wheels. There has
been great change OF opinion here on the ques-
ton within year Twelve months ago, the conn
European. The whole talk is about direct trade
with Europe; emigrants from Germany; capital
from England, NC. Nc. Texas will remain noml-
nay an Independent Republic and will go NICE
ly so long as her course quadrates with the views
Of England. When they differ, all these arrogant
claims on Texas lands, Mexican indemnties, and
50 on, which are distinctly announced, but not Of
and enforced They are mortgage on her strength
and Independence, TO remain in allegiance while
Texas IS obedient and servicabe, but will be de-
handed TO the last letter of the bond if she presumes
to be FESTIVE.
The Texans talk of Southern confederacy. II
Texas remains single now, she may rest assured
Europe will never permit her to join hands with
the Southern States hereafter 1t is the policy and
intention OF commercial and manufacturing Europe
Stunning countries this way. They would weaken
each oher-these rival sisters-and Texas AS young
est, will be made, through Houston, the cats-paw
of England VERrTAs.

The NATIVES IN SNARL.-What is the matter
with the Natives in the Third Ward We see
they have denounced the appointment of Mr.. Van
Nostrand because he was wing.
There is some thing very funny in this. Is he a
respectabe man! Is he true to the constitution? Is
he a republican! We do not see that his being a
wing should be any objection to him, or being q
locofoco either.
According TO present appearances, many OF the
ultra Natives who commenced the work of reform
are determined to put back every chance of it.
We are very sorry to see this mania for biting of
their own noses.

These quotations exhibit the greatest regularity, and
show that the state Of the money Market anything
else, have had very little influence prices The only
article in this list in which speculation has existed is
cotton, and greater decline has, consequently taken
place in prices for that staple than any other The pre-
sent quotations for the principal articles of trade
governed by demand and supply. The slight variations
noticed in the above prices for beef pork four &c
produced by heavy receipts Produce coming forw
very rapdlyevery channel Of transportation is open,
and the forwarders unusually active Heavy receipts

We should Judge from every indication visible that the
movements Of the banks must for the present. be
fined to the mutations of the stock market short time
may suffice to create explosion in this department,
when capital must Seek employment in other things

PROPOSED RETIREMENT OF TnURIow WEED
Thurlow Weed, the editor of the Albany Evening
Journal, and famous in the annals of politics IN this
State, after a multitude of regrets and repinngs,
proposes to withdraw from the management OF that
paper, if the subscribers desire it. 1t appears that
his conduct in relation TO the Catholics and the
Irish, in order to obtain their votes, has disguised
great many of his readers and patrons. We
believe recent events have shown the folly of small
politicians in making such endeavors after the
votes of particular classes of citizens. Thurlow
Weed as an editor and politician has always been
overrated; he has not mind capable of compre-
hending any thing beyond the most paltry little le-
gerdemain in politics.
