The overland mail from India furnish

The fortress of Gwalior, the Gibraltar

l'cSas.

We give on our First Page the opening
chapter of a Historical and Political view of
Texas, By one who is thoroughly familiar with
that country and deeply interested in its welfare
"a strong advocate for Annexation withal. We
should not have mentioned this as the sketch is
exceedingly interesting in the present posture of
affairs, but for the omission Of some facts from
the narrative which would give different color
ing TO much that is inserted. We shall barely
hint at these:
l. Ii is really absurd to talk at this day Of
Texas being rightfully a part Of Louisiana and
not of Mexico. How came it by a Spanish
name, and not French one How is it that
we never thought Of taking possession OF it be-
fore the Treaty of 1919? How is it that there
was a struggle there so late as 1913 between the
Revolutionary [MexicaDl and the Spanish par
tv, without any interference by cur Government?
How came it that in 1917 the Collector at New
Orleans wrote to Washington complaining of a
nest of freebootcrs and smugglers at Galveston
Bay who were the pests of the q ulf, and vet our
| Government never sent even a sloop to raise the
American flag there and assert the rghful supre-
macy of that flag No, 10, this attempt to re-
pudiate our own solemn Treaties, fixing the Sa-
| bne as our South. Western Boundary, will never
| do.
The argument that Texas belongs TO the Val
ley OF the Mississippi, and therefore would be con-
vcnient for us, is just as good with regard TO
| Canada as part Of the basin of the Great Lakes
and the st. Lawrence. The latter would avert
three times as much real danger and shut out ten
lines as much smuggling as the former. We
sHpposc no man ever took what was another $
without clear conviction that il was exceedingly
desirable to him. Ahab clearly thought SO of
Naboth's vineyard, as recorded in the Good Book ;
but that did not justify him in taking it.
We do not wonder that the Texans want to
come into the Union the terms proposed by
Tyler and the Immediate Annexationists; but we
do wonder that Americans can think Of consent
! ing. Texas is deeply in debt and openly at war ;
and her land-proprietors would Ike to have our
People pay the debt and finish the war, max
ing her lands worth millions whe-e they now
are hardly worth thousands, and Will not bring
iaoney at ali. But before Annexation becomes
an endursblc IDEA, Texas must finish her War;
procure from Mexico recognition OF her Inde
pendencc, assess her own debt on he, own lands
so as 10 secure its payment therefrom, (Which
would still leave every landholdera rabob on get
ling into The Union,] and adjust her Slavery to
he satisfaction Of the entire uaion. She Will
not do this vet g while

Hoonton Iron Works. \. j.

From gentleman who dropped into our Office
Yesterday TO hand us the advertisement in another
column, VIC learned the following facts, which are
Of deem interest in view of the Tariff controversy
These works are located at Boonion. Morris
Co. N j. about eight miles from Morls'own'
They are owned by u company of citizens pos
sessing enterprise, capital and skill, who hare run
them ten or twelve vea.s, and have thus far made
but one dividend. This is tho class who make
such vast wealth by manufacturing But they
have brighter prospects now, and are working
vigorously, in the hope Of fair return for their
investment.
These Works now employ directly from 100 TO
$50 men, and turn out ten or fifteen tons of Iron
per day. They make excellent qualities of Iron
Hoop, Sheet, Rod, &c.-and procure Pig from
various quarters to do it with. They consume
from six 10 eight thousand tons of Pennsylvania
Anthracite Coal per annum' They doubtless
create employment, as cGlliers, eamsters, miners,
&c. for four times the number Of men actually
omployod in tho Works, bceido furnishing mar
kct at average City prices, for large amount OF
Provisions, Fruits, Groceries, &c. nc. They
have new ready market for all the Iron they can
lum out, at rcmunerating price, which will
doubtless be extended if the Protective policy is
sustained But they will not require higher pfI-
ccs on the contrary, the managers arc confident
that, under steady and efficient Tariff, they will
bc able to make Iron cheaper and dcheapcr.-And,
by the way, we hear today that the great Iron
Works in Columbia Co. Pa are now fitting up to
go thoroughly into the production Of Railroad
Iron, and expect TO afford it next season for S42
per ton. (Hi,herto we have bought of Europe,
and the cost here has been $50 to $40 per ton,
even when the Tariff was down. We have not
adoubt that, If the Tariff is just let alone, we shall
have, within three years, American Rails ready 10
lay down not only cheaper than they ever have
been, but cheaper than they ever could be under
a low Revenue Tariff-possibly not right here on
the coast, but certainly on the average Of the
whole Country.
Messrs Sherman Atwater s. Co. 80 Broad-st.
are the Agents Of these Works in our City.
