GALVESTON, Jan. 18th, lS45.
 You will pr,b,by like to hear something of my impressions of TsIos. an ngreeably surprlsed in ,he city of Galveston, the only place of which know
 hl thing It Is really a very neat, clean, orderly town, and tue people strike very iavorahy.
 lave visited. indeed. bu, little, but have rambled lhrou ,h the streets, and made good many
 ordinances, well as discovered old oues. In he one of conversation and manners, ste nothing rying from those of well ordered town in any of ,eltled States of the south west Living in the chief Hotel, kept by Mir. Seymour, New York nan, whcl by the bye, most excellen house, nave indication of turbulence or dsnrdrr, or even of drunkenness, at ugh lhe bar is undoubtedly popular place. On Sunday last was pIeased n quiet and general observance of the Sabbath, icarly as complete as in New nsand-and .fonr churches were respectfully filled with different de- nominations of worshippers. like lhe appearance the town and of the people. Perhaps something
 this pleasaatness of aspect is due to e charming weather which prevails here. IL is ouc of the mild est winters ever known, thus far at least The wn- lows are all upt' let in the gentle breeyea-ires lave been unnecessary ai any hour of the day night, since have been j,ere, and every thing looks IS green Us if il were April.
 The political news here is not of interest. You will have heard of the controversy betwea an President JONES and DUFF GREEN. The pape,s containing went by crossing the Gulf. The true history is mystery. The current explanations ,rd-
 y account for the acts of either party. On the side of tIIe President, il is alleged that GREEN approach e him either to ascertain his views secure his aid in the passage of some law, chart-ring great l Lard Company, with some immense privileges, some 1 where of in the west of TEXAS. It is saii that JoNEs repelled the proposition and in fact announced his determined hostility, warning Green that the 'wer would not fail be used defeat he bill. Madam RGmur, speaking lhrouga lhe mouths of the friends of the executive says that Green lhe eupon threatened loudly 10 appeal to the people, and talked of overthrowng the administration and revoutioniz- inglpartes if not governments! Whreupon JONES issued a procama ion, revoking the exequator of Green as Consul at Galveston, for reasons affecting the interest, honor and satay ofihe Republic. These expressions oi the proclamation are snsularlv n appropriate the which lm,r presents, that il is impossible 10 believe that the story is truly told and Gen. GREEN dec Iares that he was msunder- stood and is msrepresened, that ihe controversy is purely private and personal, and that the British
 Minister has something to do with it. He promises exposition, which you may probably get before this reaches you.
 The reclamation revokins his exequator as Com sul has been suspended for the present.
 Annexation to the United States is the theme of constant conversation. have met with only two or three who are opposed To the measure, and not one who doubts tue concurrence of the people of TEXAS in any measure orig natirg in the Unied States, which is fair 10 TEXAS and Her creditors What lhe interior feeling may be cannot say, from per- sonal knowledge, but told that il is pretty much as here. few prominent men would defeat il if they could, from the common motives which in. 1uence all meu to preserve institutions in which they have prospects for personal advancement But the common sentiment is that annexation IS an American question:, part O. the inevitable results of American Independence, great step in the irresistible advance fl American epublicansm-not your nati,eist re-
 .ublicanisn of prescription, but the comprehensive republIcanisin of progress. have not found any signs that the Texans take any particular interest here, the Tyler treaty any set form of annexa- ion, SO that il be successful. WELLKR's plan ap- pears to be thought satisfactory.
