eT Mr.. CALHoUN's letter of instructions
to our Minister at Mexico-to our Minister
at Paris-and all his correspondence in rel
laton to the Texas question, sent in with
the late message, exhibits force of argu-
mont, and comprehensive and lucid ex-
pose OF the ground taken by the govern
ment on this great question, without par
aliel IN our diplomatic annals. Who can
read his letter to Gov. Shannon without
venting curse upon the perfidious tyrant.
the lnhuman monster, who doomed FAN
MN, CROCKETT, TRAVIS, ard others of our
brave eountrymen, to cold blooded butch
cry and who lately ordered his mnions to
hunt down our people in Texas, men.
women, and children, like so many wolves?
The President is fortunate in having the as
slstance and counsel of the intellectual gi-
ant OF the age in this negotiation, and the
Republic should be proud of such a citizen.
~ We notice nothing of Importance in
the proceedings of Congress up to our
latest dates. The discussion oftbe annov
alton question had not come on in eitba,
House.

GOVERNOR DNRR.

GOV EhNOh DGIAI'
We learn from the Washington GLOBE,
that in the Supreme Court of the United
States, at Washington City, on the 1lth
ult., a motion was made by the counsel oil
Gov. Dorr, that he be brought before the
Court on writ of habeds corpus, to allow
him to petition for a writ Of error, or that
a writ of error issue in his behalf and attn
dayits were read establishing that the keep
ers of the prison would not allow HIM the
privilege of signing or seeing petition
The cruel and barbarous persecution
and punishment of this man, is disgrace
to the age, and its record the foulest blot
on the escutcheon of the country. The
LARGE majority of the people of Rhode Is
land who voted for the Constitution under
which Dorr acted, and who, when the time
came to maintain their rights, craVenly
shrunk away from the shadow OF danger,
deserve to wear the yoke and be driven by
the lash, the remainder Of their lives
4" There be not so much blood IN the IL
vers Of a thousand such as would clog the
foot Of flea.'
Nor is it less to be deplored that a VIC
tim to the principle which forms the very
essence of our liberal Institutions" the
right of a maj ority of the people to alter
or abolish their form of government'-
should look to a mere bubble in the formal
itv of law for his release from a most bar
barous and inhuman confinement. In the
10Th century, in the United States OF Anne
RIGA, where the Declaration of lndepen-
dence is annually read in thousands of CT
ties, towns, and villages, to millions of free
men, a citizen is doomed to solitary con-
fnement for life, shut out from the light
Of the sun, and forbidden to see the face
Tof human being, except bis keepers, for
asserting and maintaining
e'That governments are instituted among
| men, deriving Their Just powers from the
consent Of the governed; that whenever
any form of government becomes destruc-
tive ofthose ends, it is the right of the Peo-
pie to alter or to abolish it, and to institute
new government, laying its foundation
onsuch principles, and organizing its pow
ers in such form, as to them shall seem
most likely to effect their safety and hap
piness!'
For endeavoring TO substitute a free
Constitution, framed by majority of the
people Of Rhode Island, assembled in Con
vention, for the royal charter of British
monarch. And his fate is exulted over 10y
the British party in this country, and q
wish expressed in some of their papers
that he may "rot in his cell"!
We join in the hope that the Court may
open the gates of his prison and bid hin
go free" and all the people will say
Amenw

f6sr In the Senate of the United States,
on Tuesday, 10th ult., Mr.. McDuffie in
troduced joint resolutions for the Annexa-
ton of Texas to the United States, accord
ing to the terms of the rejected treaty,
which was incorporated with, and made
part of the resolutions. In the House of
Representatives, on the 18th, Mr.. c. J. In
gersol, from the committee on Foreign Re-
lations, introduced similar resolutions
Mr.. Benton, also, again brought forward the
bill introduced by him at the last session,
providing for the annexation of a portion
of Texas, with the consent of Mexico, and
forever forbidding the existence of slavery
in part of the territory so annexed.
The resolutions will pass the House by a
decisive majority, but their fate in the Sc
nate is doubtful. We have no confidence
that Southern whig Senators, Rives. Arch
er, Berrien, &c. will obey the wishes of the
States they (mis)represent. Senator Hen
derson, of this State is an exception-he
voted for the treaty at the last session, and
will vote for the resolutions. The two new
Senators from New York are favorable tc
annexation, and we suppose will vote fol
the resolutions. The late correspondence
of our Minister at Mexico, and recent
events in that country, may materially af
feet the question, and hurry the consum.
nation of the project. Let us wait the
progress of events. No mortal power car
prevent the annexation at the next session
of Congress.

&c STATE TEXAS Assoc1ATIoN."-N sane
man doubts that large maority-probably
two-thirds-of the people of Mississippi
are in favor of the annexation of Texas.
MANY who voted for Mr. Clay ardently ia
vor the measure. These are facts known
all over the world, and especially at Wash
ington City. Under these circumstances,
we take the liberty of limiting that the
recuscitated since the election, (like other
g State" affairs we might menton), is a
harmless, useless-humbug and that the
very respectable gentlemen composing it
are g getting ahead of the music" or rather
marching gaily ahead to no music at all.
They meet, and after listening to one or
two war talks, resolUe somewhat in this
wise: Whereas, resolved, that large ma
ioritv of the people voted at the late cleo
ton decisively in favor of annexation.
And whereas resolved Notwithstanding
that six weeks have elapsed since the elec-
ton, the people are still in favor of annex
alton. Therefore resolved moreover that
meetings be held in every public place in
the State Immediately, and that 500 petit
tons be printed, signed, and sent to Con-
gress, to apprise that body that the people
of Mississippi have not changed since the
