vI>iE Measles appeared in Europe about the
L same time with the small pox, aud have a
great affinity TO that disease. They both came
from the same quarter Of The world, are both lntec

The Measles are most common in the spring sea-
son, and generally disappear in the summer The
disease itself, when properly managed. seldom
proves fatal; but It's consequences often verv

hibited tho note 10 Mr. Med who declared he
had no such bill out. and advised Mr.. S 10 try
and get his money again.

Of the experience of the State of N. York, that

TIE INrERrERENCE OF THE BRITISH AGENT
IN THE TEXAS QuEsrioN.-The correspondence
of the State department on the annexation of
Texas has been published. MIR. Buchanan. we
see, overhauls the "man III the white hat" in
the following manner, in one of our letters to
Major Doneson:
al Iregret that have not time, before the de.
parture of the messenger, to express to you, as
could desire. the feeling of indignation which
the conduct of Captain Elliott has rxed through
out this country. These are not confined to
anv party, but prevade the whole community
One of its good effects has been to render MS,
TO very great extent, united people on the
,oFn y al, ,lo
that the conduct can be approved by his govern.
ment Without entering upon the inquiry how
far the British government had right to inter.
fere IN preventing the people of Texas from
consenting to annexation, no imparta man can
doubt bu, that Captain Elliott in his efforts has
transcribed all reasonable bounds. To
sume the character Of secret negotistor of
the government Of Texas with Mexico. in
hostile spirit towards the United States; to con.
ccai his agency in this matter by pretending
that he had left Galveston for Charleston, when
his destination was Vera Cruz, and then to pre-
vail upoa Mexico 10 consent to TIE independence
of Texas, oa CONDITION that Texas should never
annex hcrscift to she United Stales--these acts,
taken tnc atltet, are at war with all the mnicrn
u.xCes of diplomacy. and with the character Of
the British government, which ia generally bold
and frank, ifno, always just, in its policy toward
fore On natious. He has not even for
mont succeeded in his efforts at conceslment,
and he will find that his transparent cunning
will only tend TO render him ridiculous. But
what is far worse on his part, by obtaining the
consent Of Mexico to the Independence Of Texas,
he has deprived that power of the only mlser-
able pretext which it had for war against the
United States, whilst ne has fomented among
the Mexican people spirit ot hostility against
US which may plunge that il-fated country into
war"
