|, CHEERING NEWS FROM. TEXAS :
The late intelligence from Texas is Of sueh-a
character as to render ecerain that the people OF
llhat Republic will accede to the terms proposed
by the late Congress, and come into our Union.
The Washington Union of the 10Th instant says,
/ IA private telrer is received, from high quar-
Ter at Galveston, May 9Th, which uses the follow
ling language: There is now no division upon
this question. In. my future coIumu MICA IONS
NAV confine myself more TO Statement or facls
in relation 10 the Py scaf and other resources and
advantages Of this coHutry, Under belief, thai,
when tell you that ex as will accept the terms,
and that promptly; and that she will have, on The
Isl Monday in December next, knocking at the
dooss of Congress, two senators and two represen-
taIiues, wth-s good constitution their hands, L
have told you all this subject which you desire
to hear.'" =
= This Jocks like coming to; the great point in
earnest. General Houston says he will oppose
no obstacle to annexation; ,PresideRt Jones has
been forced into favorable action by the torrent OF
popular enthusiasm England Will fail in her in
s,dious and dangerous machinationss and traitors
in alEsections will be rebuked, and the cause of
republican government advanced, by The Triumph
ant and speedy union of the Two Republics. We

. By the New York. which arrived this evening,
having left Gai4eson on the Sd, We learn thai the
progress of The annexation question is> steady and
uninterrupted. All doubt to the decision Of the
Texian CoHgEess upon the propositions submitted
by The Americas Minister, Mr.. Done1son, is at an
end The only hope Of those opposed to annexa@
tion, was through ihe action of President Jones,
who ii was at time eohj jeetured, would refuse
to negotiate on the basis proposed by the reselu-
lions Of our House Of Representatives, under the
expectation that in hafeVehr, the Presidenl Of the
United States would resort To- the Senate amend
mspl offered BY Mr.. w alker. But the public will
of Texas in favor of anne xatien on the terms
proposed by our HiInisles, has been so strongly
manifested, that the Executive does not hesitate to
carry II OUT and-it may soon be said that there is
no opposition to the measure in Teras :!
Great Credits due TO our accomplished minister,
for the successful eoHsunmaon of this great event.
