The Galveston News, speaking of the grow

Of the foreign relations Of the Republic, Gen.
Houston holds the following pregnant Ian
guage in relation 10 annexation:

again for admission into the United States, she
will only degrade herself-they will spurn
her again from their threshold, and oheI ma

Jones makes no allusion to annexation.

whether they will take an acknowledgment Of
their independence from Mexico coupled with
the condition of declining annexation 10 toe
