rHE NEWS FROM TEXAS.

| We congratulate the country again and again up
on the certain consummaton Of our wishes. The
Congress of Texas has ratified resolutions unan-
imously. Thus spake the government of fsrds. The
convention have ratified it uaanimousiy with but
one exceptions and that member afterwards signed
the ordinance. Thus spake the people in conven-
ton Our propositions have thus been accepted In
both ways, according to the forms of our resolu-
tions-trst by the actual government, and then by
/ the people in convention. All doubt seems to be
terminated No one has yet forbidden the banns
OF marriage. The two republics are henceforth
to be united.
Will the wings dare now to defeat il; Has Cap
tain Elliott no devce-no means, to stir up an
opposition in the next Congress to the final measure
A whisper is just borne from Austin, that such is
his purpose; and that he has still one iron in the fire.
But the effect will fail, from what quarter it
may. The New York Tribune may threaten war

attempt will fail TO the disgrace of its authors. Mr.
Clay may murmur in his heart that he should have
been weak enough to sacrifice TO the weird spirit Of
ambition, the principle which he so manfully sup
ported in 1920 viz: that the executive had no right
concede away this Texas territory; that this, the fair
est laid which the sun shines, could not be coded
away. He ought, according to his former position,
now TO be the first to rejoice that we have regained
her; but he cahnot--for he would have sacrificed
her he has even sacrificed himself, by opposing
her annexation Mr.. Adams, too, may rave against
the measure; other whigs who contended against it
on party grounds may their fate; but the oppoei
ton is unevaling. The value of the territory-the
attachment of its people to us-the attempt Of Eng
land and France to defeat ns--the honest indigna-
ton created in the heart of many wing at their
indecent interference-have made the annexation
more popular than ever any opposition to 1t more
odicus than ever.
The New Orleans Bee (Whig) says;
Nneeen-twenteths OF the people Of the United States
