A late letter from New Orleans, of the 2Sth ult.,
from an intelligent gentleman who had just returned
from Galveston, states that the Convention of Texas
would probably close their labors during that week
and would form State constitution which would
prove acceptable to the Congress of the United
States; that in fact, its leading principles had been
agreed upon before the 18th July. He confirms the
report that there was an intention of importing
goods into Galveston, for the purpose of ranship-
ment into the United States The scheme had been
more openly avowed
There were no reports of Mexican troops having
appeared upon the frontier; but it was the opinion
Of some well acquainted with the character and pol
icy of the Mexcans, that the intelligence of Texas
having ratified the resolutions Of the United States
would become the signal for the advance of the Mex
lean troops and the commencement of hostilities

FROM the ~ T. JOURNAL Oh commerce.
Messrs. EDrroRs: Your correspondent 3d." com.
plains of the late Treasury CIRCULAR and alleges that
the Secretary of the Treasury has interfered i'm.
properly TO prevent the re-shipment of dutiabe
chandise to Texes- The facts are these. The Sec
rotary had reason to think that large amount OF
foreign merchandise would be imported into Texas
under belief that after annexation had been con-
summated, it could be carried coastwise, and thus
escape the payment Of duties which would have
been collected them if imported directly into the
United States. The Treasury circular is notice TO
persons disposed to make such importations into
Texas, that it will be in the power Of Congress to
require that the merchandise, thus imported, shall
upon being reshipped to other ports Of the United
States, be required to pay the same duties as are
paid, or have been paid, on other merchandise OF
like kinds The Secretary has done no than
give notice; but, by doing so, he has taken from
persons, so importing goods into Texas, the plea
that they had right thus to evade the payment of
duties. He has manifested a pralseworihy vigi-
lance; and the honest merchant, who does not seek
TO evade the payment of duties which are paid by
others, should thank him. He has not only de-
prived such as would deraud the revenue of an ar
gument which would be urged to prevent such legs-
lation as may be required in the premises, but he
has made it the duty Of Congress TO make such laws
as may be necessary to defeat the contemplated
speculation. And who these persons wishing
to avail themselves Of the present peculiar relations
of Texas, TO defraud the revenue Of the United
States' Are they not the agents of foreign houses,
who would take advantage of what they consider to
be defect in the revenue laws Of this country And
should not they be greatly obliged To Mr. Walker,
who thus gives them warning that Congress can and
will cure that defect Instead of censure, they
should give him thanks Your correspondents ef-
fort to make the circular appear unkind to Texas is
so much labor lost. The people Of Texas do not
require his comments to enlighten their judgments
upon such questions. They know that Mr.. Wal
ker WIS their friend in the darkest hour of their
eventful history, and they cannot be induced now
TO ascribe improper or unkind motive for the
faithful performance Of his official duties.

A mistaken impression seems to exist in regard to
the principle on which the President has acted in
reference to those consulates of the United States
which have been filled by foreigners. We stated,
Certainly it intention to state it, that, in
all cases where a consulate was held by foreigner,
and of our own citizens, with suitable qualifca-
tons, would accept it, the President would prefer the
latter. Some have affected to believe that this pref
would be confined to native citizens, and the
exclusion extended to naturallzed citizens. This is
mistake; and if any phrase which we may have
hastily employed has conveyed different impress
sion, most happy to correct it. The President
knows no difference between native and naturalized
citizens In many foreign ports, where the interests
of our commerce require that we shall have con-
sui the emoluments are so inconsderable that there
has been difficulty in procuring the services Of Amer
lean citizens and foreigners, owing allegiance to
our government, have been intrusted with the re-
sponsibe duties of consul. The President has acted
the principle that such places shall be filed by
persons bound by the ties of duty and allegiance to
our own government in preference to subjects of
foreign powers. He has never made or contem-
plated any distinction between native and natural
lied citizens. He has sympathies with native
Americanism. He has no distrust of the fidelity OF
those who have found an asylum in our country,
and who have soemnly pledged themselves to sup
port its constitution and laws by the oaths of natur-
alization. No one, with American heart, can
doubt the propriety of investing citizens, bound to
our own government, with the power and duty OF
protecting American commerce and American sea-
men abroad, in preference to those who have no
sympa,hies with us, and whose allegiance is due to
another government

The "National Intelligencer" is pleased to say
in the Delphic articles which it is writing on the
policy Of the United States in regard to the occupa.
ton of Texas, that its course of developments had
been forced upon it. It was "not sought by us
(says its edtor,) but forced upon us by the cant o.
discretion of the government paper" Our cores
pondent in this evenings "Union," who has ad.
ministered such and dignifed rebuke to the
National Inteligencer," infers, from the remark,
that the government editor should go to school to
learn discretion We are very much afraid, that
if we took out our diploma in the school of the
"Nationol Intelligencer," we should have to learn
some very strange rules Of discretion.
We might learn that discretion consists in
sneerng at the official paper, whilst the had
been himself the supple organ of executive power,
