O'ConneH, tried and conricied.-The Baltimcrs
American of the 25th uIt., has late advicos from
Ireland, from which we clip the following extract:
The trials of Mr.. O'Connell and others, ufter
twenty five days duration, have boon concluded.
and each of the traverses has been found guilty..
but the sentences deferred until the next torn
Mr.. O'Connell has, on behalf Of himself and bis
companions, protested against the verdict, and has
intmased that so soon as sentence sinai have been
passed, he will have the matter submitted TO thu
whole body of Judges in Ireland, and that, if ;her
decision should DO unfavorable, he will appeal to
the House of Lords. In the meantime no has
taken his place in the House of Commons. Ire.
land is said to have been perfectly TRANQUIL since
the rendition of the verdict.
In reference to the Agintor, the Belfast Nor.
thern Wig publishes the following paragraph:
1--WE learn on what we consider good authority.
that the Duke of Wellington is determined thai
MIR. O'Connell shall not be sent to prison, believ.
ing that tho moral effect of conviction will bs
sufficient, and that punishment would be a useless
piece Of severity"
On the other hand, the Liverpool Mercury of tho
10th ult, says: at is foolishly imagined by some
that the trnversers will not be called up for iude.
ment; this opinion is, in the opinion of we'll in.
formed persons, totally at variance with what will
occur. 1t is to be hoped thst the peace of the
country will be preserved, which is very doubt.

The Itras Question.--The following are fbe
leading paragraphs Of an editorial in tho MadisoI
MAN of Tuesday:-"We have authentic advices
from Texas showing, that, with the exception of
one member, the Senators and Representatives in
Congress Of the Republic are unanimously in IA.
vor Of ''annexation." We have also adyices. of
tho same authentic character, containing assur.
ances that ''ninety. mine of every hundred of The
citizens of Texas are in favor Of tho measure..s
We have likewise intelligence that if Texas be
not annexed 10 the United States il will im,ned;.
ately become Dependency of England and an
instrument to ruin the commerce and manufac.
lures of the New England States.
If tho Executive Of the United States should
send into tho Senate treaty of "anncxation" wa
make bold to say, for the especial benefit of the In.
telligencer, that he will be wholly influenced bv
patriotic motives. He will entertain no section.
oil or party consideration. When sent in, should
the treaty be made, it will be for the Senate and
the Senate only, to ratify or reject. The Senate
will doubtless act with full knowledge of ito
duties and responsibilities, whether treaty an.
nexing Texas or one asserting our indisputable
title to Oregon, or 10th, DO laid before them. And
if it be improper 10 agitate the subject of the lat.
ter in advance of Executive action, the Intolli.

to prejudice the former"
More Texans Released.-The N. o. Pioav,n.
of the ooh ultimo says:

MR.. DALLAS AND TEXAS.

Mr.. Dallas, the Locofoco nominee for the Vice
Presidency, is an out and out advocate for the
immediate annexation of Texas, as will be per-
ceived by the following rhapsodcal soft-soaping
which he piles upon Mr.. Walkers letter. The
latter gentleman must have an Unsuitable nav for
fattery if he is not satisfied with this dose. Mr..
WIS letter advocates immediate annexation, re-
CARELESS of national faith, and the consequences
of war; and it is therefore fair and legitimate to
infer that the euogist of that letter is an advo-
cate of the measure. The issue to go before the
country, therefore, is between immediate annexa-
ton, national perfdy and war, or the faith OF
treaties and the honor of the country.
AS specimen of the literary taste Of the au-
thor the letter is not without its value. We
should infer from it that whatever may be MIR.
Dallas's other merits, he is not distinguished for
the clearness of his perceptions, and that he is
likely to evnce more zeal than ability in defend
ing the cause of annexation:
PHILADELPHIA, Feb, D, lS44,
Ma Dear Sir: cannot resist the impulse to
tell you how much delight have taken in read
ing your pamphlet on Texas, &C. 1t is compre-
hensive, clear, argumentatlve, and eloquent
Nothing can remove or resist your facts, and
defy ingenuity to assail the justice and integrity
of your deductions. In the midst of all my dis
traction at the bar, my head has been running on
this topic for some months and your admirable
brochure comes to me like mama, in the way of
starved people. cannot tell you, without using
words which you might consider extravagant,
how highly | appreciate your labors, and how
sincerely, as an American Democrat, thank
you. Truly, and ever yours,
GEORGE nj. DALLAS.
