We are glad TO see lrom ibe following or

THE WAR OF THE ROSES
The great Globe, is firing away atJohn
Tyler, in regular man. of wal sIyle The old
recreaut haging frs, broached the Texas
question, was fully determined to have the
''Ias' tng," snd so as soon as be had signed
me annexation measure, he despatched a
special messenger TO convey the 'glad ii.
dings of great Joy, to the dwellers under
the lone star. In this hasfy, most unworthy
and uncalled for move, TYLER has displayed
more than his proVerbial impudeRce and dis
regard of decency. Setting at defiance The
amendment Of the Senate, clearly embody-
ing the popular sentiment and without which
annexation could not have succeeded, Mr..
Tyler assumed power never intended TO
be exercised by him, and announces that he
has decided that Texas shall come in under
the joint resolution, and without further me-
gotation! A more shameless piece Of bust
ness has never been performed. even by thai
most shameless ofall men, John Tyler. His
conduct can be defended in no possible point
of view, and we are not at all astonished &c
find that the powers that be, consider it no.
thing more or less than fiat burglary: and
announcing this fact, the Globe is even lesI
mincing in The selection Of language than i
lis won't. Here is what it says:
We understand that Mr.. Tyler mounted
one Of his relations as an express, TO haster
10 communicate TO Texas that he, as Presi'
dem of the United States, had made his e
lection as to the alternatives contained in the
lae sct of Congress, looking 10 the admiss
ION Of Texas into the Union and that he haC
chosen thai alternative which il is known
could not have commanded majority IN tn,
Senate, and had rejected that which carrie'
the majority in The House up from ttUenty
t,eO 10 fifty
Mr.. Tyler knows we'll that Congress dl,
not intend to intrust the discretionary powe
of the act TO his hands. He knows well that
il he had appointed the commissioners nee
essary under one of the alternatives of the
aci, they would not have been confirmed /,
carry out hts instructions He has, therefore
seized upon that portion Of the Legislative,
enactment. which, ifacceded to by Texas
may involve future difficulties in our owr
Congress, and mar the concord now existin,
among the friends Of the measure, whice cal
alone insure its happy cOnsummanon HI
has taken the alternative, meant by the Law
TO be conferred on the American Presiden
whose duty ii will be to effect tue measur,
from him, and given II to the Texian execu
tive.
