provoke war with the United States, and to lay
down the plan of a campaign, which would soOn-
esf bring II to fortunate conclusion for England.
The basis of this plan was the organization of the
necessary back force in the West India Islands,
and its debarkaiiOn upon our southern coast. The
|conseqnehces which enemies fondly hoped
for, in such case, but with an entire ignorance
of the true state of the country, were foretold
with rare union of philanthropy and hatred. l
wish had the number at hand, to call some choice
passages for your reflection The result was to be
the destruction of the southern States, he ruin
depression of the others, and the dissolution Of
this great and glorious confederacy. which TIE
last hopes of freedom through the world now rest
What more favorable position could be taken for
the occupation of English black troops, and for
letting them loose upon our southern States, than
is afforded by Texas7 Incapable of resisingyin
the event of a war between Us and England, she
would be taken possession of by the latter, under
one or another of those pretences, which every
page of her history furnishes, and the territory
would become the depot whence she would carry
on her operations against US, and attempt to add
servile war to the other calamlies which hostties
bring with them. He who doubts whether this
would be done, has vel to learn another trait in
the annals of national antipatht. II would be
done, aud be called philanthropY.
Every day satisfies me more and smorei that a
majority ofsshe American people are in favor of
annexation. Were they not the measure ought

is effected the better. do not touch the details of
the negotiation. That must be left to The respon-

I DETRoIr, May 10 1914.
\ Dear Sir: In answer to your inquiry, whether
am favorable to the immediate annexation of Tex
as 10 the United States, reply that am. AS you
demand my opinion only Of this measure, and
briefly the reasons which influence me, shall con-
fine myself 10 these points.
shall not dwell upon The policy of uniting CO.
terminous countries situated like ours and Texas,
with no marked geographical feature to divide
them, and with navigable streams penetrating the
territories of both nor upon the origin Of the peo
pie who inhabt them, upon their common language,
manners, religion, institutions, and in fact, their
Identity as a branch of the human family. MOI
shall urge the material interests involved in the
measure, by the free intercourse it would establish
between the various sections of vast country,
mutually dependent upon, and supplying
lher. These considerations obvious, that
they need no calculation from me: -
But, in military point of view, annexation
strikes ME as still more important, and my mind
has been the more forcibiy impressed with this
idea from reading the able letter of General jack
son upon this subject, which has jus, come under
nv observation. With the intuItive sagaciIy
which makes part of the character of that great
man and pure patriot, he has fOreseen the use
which European enemy might make of Texas
in the event of a war with the United States.
Judgement in that country would lay open our
whole southwestern border TO his devastations.
We could establish no fortress, nor occupy any
favorable position for the immense frontier may,
IN vast many places, be crossed as readily as
man passes from one part Of his farm to another.
The advantages an active enemy would enjoy
under such circumstances, it requires no sagacity

National Bank- Whiggery DOdging Again
In every thing but the Tariff-snd in certain
quarters, not excepting that-the Wing leaders
will attempt to. play the two faced game which
they played in 184O. Clay himself has shown two
or three faces on the Tariff to suit the South, the
East, and the West He makes no honest decla-
ration as to National Bank though at the com
mencemCnt of the last session of Congress, he pro-
posed the revival of Bidde's rotten concern. He
now merely says he is in favor of ''sound ma
tional cu,rency"-as if gold and silver were not
sound He thus gives the cue to his supporters
who express opinions modified by locality. For
instance, the Albany Evening Journal, the federal
organ published at New York, repudiates Ma.
tional Bank in the strongest terms. Onthe 21st
of March, 1914, it spoke as follows "
"The locofocos are greatly distressed for a "Na
tional bank" issue. They have 80 long had the
benefit of the Monster; that It seems cruel TO rob
them of it. But the truth is we cannot afford to
CRAFTY them in this respect We must go into
this contest unincufnbered. We shall indeed ''Say
nothing about bank and for-the reason that we
care nothing about it. AS an. individual Whig,
we hope never to see another United States Bank
chartered, not but that such an institution was
vastly useful but because hope the country will
not again be CORRUPTED and convulsed with sfug-
gle for its re-charter. 1t is far better to- forego the
advantages of Bank than to hazard the bank
ruptcy, ruin and distress which was brought upon
us in the recent conflict between the government
and the Bank. Van Bnrenism, therefore cannot be
grati6ed, this time, with Bank campaign"
