LATER FROM TEXAS.
The steamship New York, Capt. Wright.
arrived ut New Orleans on tho 10Th INST.
from Galveston, whence she sailed on the

VIII then come al once to the | nited States.
he beng extremely soicitous to see Gen.

yields 10 Annexation as matter CT urrvs-
sliy, II not of choice.
Mr.. NlckIlHe, the OK Postmaster Gene.

There is 10 limit 10 the enthusiasm OF
The people OF Texas IN regard to annexa.
ton. ! lac only trouble with them appears

.-::1' :. a.-',-t;s,ti,.s. for tire State af Tex

Congress.
The Hon. L. Allen, the acting Secrsta.
ry Of State, arrived at Houston on he 22d
uit. he Telegraph assures us hat he is
an ardent friend Of anHexaton, and is desi-
rous that - the great measure should be
cousummatcd al the eaIles, praclicaJle

The papers have some fumors Of disaf.
lection TO the Mexican government, in some
Of her Northern departments. Tho i" wish
may be father 10 the thought F." in This
case. We have probably as late udsiceS
here as 10 Tire movement OF General 4 ris.
Ia as have been received III Texas.
ONE DAY LATER FROM ME~ivJ. /
The schaa;4aT Crcole, arrived a, New
Orleans, brings accounts from Vera Cruz
10 the 22d uItimo, and from the CITY Of
Mexico 10 the l7lh. We make the sub.
joined extracts from the Pcayune:
We have again to say that Mexico has
not yc. declared wal against the United
States, although rumors wers rife in town
yesterday that She had done SO. Verbal
communications from some Of the passen.
gers by the Creole represent that the gen
cral feeling at Vera Cruz is in favor OF
war, and that the prevailing impression
there is that the Goyernne". will declare
it so soon as il finds itself in a situation to
do so with effect. Nous perroas.
The four American vessels Of war were
still lying at SACRIFICES.
BY this arrival we hear not a word more
Of Mr.. Shannon, !hs American Minister.
The most interesting inLe!Ii s"aee which
we find relates to The fate of Santa Anna
and those involved in his overthrow. A
has been introduced in the
Chamber OF Deputies that Santa Aana,
Canalizo, and The four ex.MinisterS who ,
took part in issuing the decree The 2gh
D! November, closing the sessions Of Con.
gress, may avoid trial upon the condition
g, eypaIr'd;,7- themselves for the term Of
len years. At TIE same tine cn2:1;-r
proposition was submitted, to the effect I
HAT an absolute amnesty should be granted
o all those gnnesals and other Ulcers {
in the circular Of the 9th J
d January, depriving them Of their com. :
hands, &C., even though they had been '
lready sentenced.
We do not tiud thai ;he Chambers have '
cited upon these propositions, but that '
hey are very likely 10 receive their mp. b
rotation we entertain no doubt. The Il
evolution having been so perfectly con.
animated throughout the entire country,
nd the present Administration being so
ecure in their places, il would be an act :.
{ diguIty as well as clemency 10 extend II
ardun to those who adhered 10 the last 10 +
he fortunes Of Santa Anna, The services p
a large number Of good officers will 81
nus be regained to the Requisite. And i,
lither To iranqul!Izc the pubic mind -
either outraging the feelings Of the yet
utACibhS IiiC'iSS ohN pul kiShb1 VI AcdHNd
Inna, and at the same time appeasing the u
eHIands for justice against him--it would a,
Dpear to be highly political course 10
low him to leave the country with those Ii
osl intimately associated with his tyran. +
cal acts. |, is a significant fact that the !
oera! press, which has been hitherto
smarous for vengeance, indulge in no
,mmenis upon the introduction of the da
Dove propositions. Had they beer offer. ss
before the news Of the success of the O.;
Of Texas, there world have
zen loud and general cutlery. 1t can. tn
It be doubled tina, i, is the policy Of the a0
excan Government, in view of her diff. -,
renee with the United States, thus to
al all internal wounds, and concentrate in,
