UNITED STATES AND TEXAS.

UNITED STATES AND TEXAS.
Rumors have been flying about Cor some months
Pas, relative to the annexation Of Texss to the
United States. There are eons'nitly so many idle
rumors going out from Washington, that the ru-
NOR about The annexation OF Texas to tho United
States at fiat excited no very serious -sonsidera'
ton There seems however now to be no DOUBT
that some negotiation has been going on between
the two Governments upon the Subject Presi-
dent Tyler hs. now succeeded in filling up the va
oancies in his Cabinet, and doubtless some authen-
tic and official information will be placed before the
Senate, before long upon the Subject. II is now
certain that the Hon. John C. Calhoun has accept
ed the appointment Of Secretary of State, and we
think the country fortunate in having gentleman
of such acknowledged ability a, the head of the
Cabinet at this time.
The Annexation of Texas to this Union is a
question Of the deepest and most solemn imPor
lance and should therefore command the camest
consideration of the people. Let the people Of
this great country meet the issue when presented
to them. as American citizens ought to meet it,
with calmness, dignity and consideration. 1t lie a
question which rises tar above the party questions
Of tho day. and may involve in it's consequences
the permsnency and future existence OF this Union
We have not room this week fer more than al
hsios to the subject, but will endssvor next week
70 put our readers in possession of tho views of
10th the friends and opponents of the measure -
We cannot of course yet determine what the spe-
cS, action Of the Executive Department OF our Cow
eminent will be- or what the President OF the Uni.
ted States may recommend. bu, we hope tina, the
deliberations If Con.re.. may be conducted with
that consider alton aud thought which tho inpor-
,ance of the subject demands.
We presume there will be no definite action up
en- the subjsct during the present session Of Con-
g,ess, and unless sufficient number of Senators
can be found TO favor the views of the President,
the matter will be laid aside and the particulars
of the negot islion remain for the present shaded
in mystery.
