Who SHALL OPEN THB WAR.--In con.
GLIDING long argument, proving the Rio
del Norte to be the legitimate Western
boundary Of Texas, the last Union holds
the following temperate language as TO
the question-"Who shall strike the first
blow, Mexico or the United States Pic.
II the territory we claim to the Rio del
Norte be not in actual armed possession
Of Mexico, we hold it to be clear that we
may righlfully take such possession our
selves, and defend it when taken. But, at
present, we see no necessity or exPedIen.
cy of resorting to force to deprive Next
co Of such actual possession. Had we
not better leave her TO commit the first acl
of nostIities? When that is done we
are at war; and then we strike with all
our power.
Such appears to be our true policy
Our troops will probably not take an ag'
gressive attitude in regard TO Mexico
If (as some suppose, and some indeed say
her troops arc ON the advance to the from
tier, the danger of collision approaches
In all proba bilily, il they undertake the
invasion Of Texas, they will attempt 70
drive our troops from the ground they
occupy. In such case, our right of de-
fence will authorize US to cripple and des-
troy their army in any way we please.
Then, the game isup. We drive every
man Of them across the Rio Grande; and

A very intelligent correspondent of the
United States Gazette, who writes from
Antwerp, long ago predicted that nett he
the Texas nor the Oregon questions would
lead TO war between this country and
England or France. In his last letter, da-
ted the 18th ult., he reitera,es his opn.
ions in the following strain:-Picayune.
! can re-assure you that neither Oregon
nor Texas will give the United States the
least trouble. provided they remain uni
ted. The only and last hope Of the mon
archists Of Europe, and their only conso-
lation as regards the loss Of Texas, or, as
it ought TO be called, "the defeat of Euro
pean di plomacy in its attempt to regulate
Anne rican affairs" is that the Union may
yet be severed that slavery and the tar
if will destroy the connection between
the South and the North, and thereby
turn the power now pressing on England
on one side, and Mexico on the other.
against itself. But if we remain unmo.
Tested by Europe, it is not from any good
wiH towards US, but simply from the i'm.
possibility for Europeans to do US any
harm without running themselves. The
journals on. both sides of the channel are
now perfectly resigned. They speak of
Texas as an unavoidable, fixed, uncontro
vertabh fact, and Of the emigration to
Oregon as thing which cannot very well
be prevented. ln.the end they will be
reconciIed to the loss Of Oregon, as some
thing not worth talking bout land per-
haps TO the abandonment Of America gen
orally, as continent unworthy of the
guiding sgis of civilized Europe.
