The shifting of the kaleidoscope has pre- scented this subject in all it's different aspects. i'll the brief period of single session Of Con- gress, When the fact became known here, that the people of Texas were unanimously Tn iavor of annexation to the mother country, as the United States must be regarded, their wishes were responded to by almost univer- sal welcome. The identity ol origin, the congenally of feeling, the ties of consan- gunlty, and tho close and inseparable part nership in civil and martial renown, all im- pelled Us to profln the hand of amitv and union. This was the first impulse of the iree' warm, and generous hearts of American treemen; and, in this case, reflection fully sanctions what passion prompted
 But Henry Clay, for no reason under hea- ven that we can divine, except to test the fidelity of his followers, declares himself utterly opposed to annexation now, and, in- ferentially, forever. The scene chaageS- Men, who are always first and foremost in layishing their iests and jeers upon "Dem6- erals ia fhe collar" now effect a summerset more CT less tortuous, as they now oppose aaaeTation, or only the instrument or medns by which 1t was to be effected In the mean time, the treaty is matured and published. The Swiss minions of the Senate have taken the cue, and not all the considerations of policy, justice, and patriotism, can weigh a single feather against the imperative fiat of the ''Dictator of Ashlandp Texas was vir- tually sacrificed to pander to his wantonness.
 But the farce is yet only half played The bill Of Senator Benton gives to the affair a most ludicrous finale It propose to open a triple negotiation, seeking the assent of Mexi- co, which, if withheld, is to be disregartl.- Such diplomacy would be fragrant insult to all the parties concerned. It e313tages our recognition of Texan independence; 1t tells i Texas the battle of San Tacinto was fought for naught; and to Mexico it says--we seek your assent; if you give it--so; if not-So still
 In all these proceedings, ono fact is worthy ol especial attenlion-the Whgs-the Wings who profess so much friendship for annexa- ton, voted against it in solid column, in every shape in which it has been. or can be, presented. Have they not ssdefned their po- sltionn beyond the possibility of mistake On the contrary, every Democratic Senator, except one, who did not vote at all, voted tor the measure in some shape Let this be remembered
 Texas is not, and will not, be abandoned. An appeal will be taken from the caba, to the people. She is free--we have said it- the whole world has said it---eight years of freedom attest 1t; and when this Union ex- tends te her t!ie welcome Of sistteriiiooj, sistteriiiooj wo 10 that land, whether this or that side of the Atlantic, which forbids tic embrace To ask the consent of Mexico is foolish mockery: ot England, downright slavery. When we do this, not only tbe Alamo must bleed again, but ! orktoun must be forgotten
