TExAs.--The accounts which reach US
daily from the theatre Of annexation; are be-
coming more and more interesting as the
Icrisis, approaches! The desperate struggle
making by England t5 thwart the wishes of
the people of both the United States and
Texas, are such as to lead to serious appre-
hension that some accidents may set the
whole in a blaze. tits very evident that,
|unprompted by England, the annexation
would GO quickly into operation without ex-
citing the Smallest uneasness; but the whole
wealth and diplomacy of England are con-
|centrated in the effort 10 defeat it. The in
dependence of Texas involves virtually the
independence of England: that is 10 say, the
latter country is now entirely dependent up
lon the Southern States for the material by
(which large portion of her people and
trade are supported. Texas is the only spot
which can rival the United Statesin the pro-
|duction of tnat staple. When she comes
into the bosom of tie United States, the
chance of the emancipation of England from
her dependence upon the United States for
cotton, will have passed away for ever. As
the moment of annexation approaches, and
the prize is slipping from her grasp, she be-
comes nearly frantic, in The person Of her
agent. The latest intelligence very Strongly
indicates that Mexican troops are, prompted
by the English, advancing beyond the Rio
|Grande. Texan forces are about to con-
verge upon the same point; that is, beyond
the line of the Neuces. The country be-
tween the Rio and the Neuces is about one
degree oflatitude on the coast, and is fine
country. With these forces facing each
|other, the utmost danger Of collision ex-
lists. 1t is to be hoped, however, that the
presence of the United States fleet, under
Capt. Stockton, now cruising between the
months Of the Neuces and the Rio, will have
the effect of preventing the MexiCans from
crossing the latter river, under fears ofbeing
cut off from their retreat; in which case no
difficulty will arise. ...s.=
1t is presumed that the English agent is
acting "under orders" If so, his conduct
|by no means squares with the declaration of
Lord Aberdeen, in his despatch to Mr.. Pa
kenham of the 26th of December, ls43,
wherein he states in the most precise and
explicit terms, that Great Britain aspires to
no dominant influence in Texas; that she
presumes not TO use any undue authority
over foreign States iu her opposition to slave-
ry; and that, with reference to the slave
holding States of the Union, she has ever
treated them with the same respect and
|" forbearance as the other members of the
Federal community"
We observe the work " forbearance" is a
favorite phrase with the British ministers
whenever alluding to these United States--
We do not, however, think that England,
notwithstanding the greatness of the object
to her ofhaving, nominally independent, un
der her influence, a great rival cotton coun=
TRY to the United States, would venture on
war TO prevent it. The whole uneasinsss
arises from fear of accidents.=N. Y Nor

The Washington Union thus calmly, but
|pointedy, meets the present hostile attitude
lof England towards us:
"Sir Robert Peel is very much deceived,
indeed, if he expects TO intmidate us by his
clustering bravado on the floor of the House
|of Commons The English prints have
fallen into an extraordinary error. It isttue,
that the United States have not burst
