Texas is Annexed.

The advocates of annexation have iriumphed
and Texas, to all inen,s and purposes, now
forms part of The United States The Con-
gress of that country, on the 10Th of June,
unanimously adopted the annexation resolutions
passed by our Congress, at the last session
there not being dissenting voice in either
House. The news was brought TO Washing
Ton by Capt. Stockton of the steamer Prince
ton. in nine days from Galveston. The Prince
ton also brings intelligence that the Treaty by
which Mexico stipulated TO acknowledge the
independence of Texas, upon condition that
she would not unite with any other nation, was
rejected unanimously by the Senate.
A resolution was also introduced into both
Houses requiring the Presiden, Of that Repub-
lie TO surrender 10 the authorities of the United
States, all the navy yards. forifica'icns, bar
racks, &c. ofTexas. Under this state of things
it is impossible TO say what course will be pur-
sued by the Mexican government. 1t is true
that government has pledged itself 10 declare
war against us in the event of annexation, but
whether she will now consider herself able TO
cope with US, or be desirous Of doing it, re-
mains 10 be seen.

I'm the Court OF Quarter Sessions of this
County, few days since, in the matter of the
application of the Guardians of the Poor, for an
order on Samuel Naihans TO give security for
the maintenance OF his wife aud two children,
Judge Parsons delivered an opinion, by whi, h
il was decided that said Na,hans was married,
according to the laws of Pennsylvania, 10 Mrs.
Naihans. There had been no ceremony per-
formed, bu, The parties had lived together as
man and wife, and The defendan. had treated
the complainant as wife in The presence OF
acquaintances. This opinion establishes that
in Penn'a marriage is a civil contract, and as
such may be proved by admissions and acts OF
