We are sorry TO perceive that the true advo-
Gates OF Annexation are still to be embarrassed
by those whom they should count upon as
friends We had hoped and will still hope, for
better things and we shall yet forbear to pub
lish divers significant communications from i'm
portant sources, rejecting upon Col. Benlon's
course, until his present determination, what
ever It may be, has been pronounced. But the
following, from his organ, is deeply deprecated.
The reckless imputslions of the most rabid Fed
eral paper could not do the cause half as much
injury:
From the Missotuian.
The disunionists Of the south, under the guidance
ofCALHoUs and McDUFTIE, are pressing forward the
Tyler treaty in the shape Of joint resolution, with
out a compromise TO unite the Democratic vote of the
north; to plumber MEXICO Of three four of her an
Gent provinces at the hazard of an unjust wal, In
order to insure the opposition Of the north defeat the
measure and thus give in pretence for 4 dssolu-
ton Of the Union They have thrown down The
gauntlet in advance in the Beaufort resolutions which
call upon the north to adopt the Tyler treaty,
n time and place for an amicable arrangement for
dissolution Of the Union. Thus they to goad and
exasperae the NORTH and thus these pesten factions
to share this abominable monopoly Of disunion.
We have full confidence that this horrid combina.
ton will be defeated by the passage of Col Bentons
bill. That bill pass. 1t drawn up after the
Baltimore Convention, and upon consultation with
the Democratic Senators, and presents basis, on
which the northern Senators can stand, and upon
which they have said they willing to go for the
measure. There is no hope on any other plan.
We conclude this article with an interesting ex.
tract from the Globe:
ave do not doubt that the Hartford convention
federalsts will chseriully contribute to extend the
dominion of British influence over Texas, notwith-
standing they consider 1t evil of great magnitude
extend the limits OF the United States, to embrace
that rich region to derive and confer blessings And
if this be accomplished in no other way, we
should not be surprised to the attempt made by
insisting on annexation as cause for Remembering
the Union. In the prosecution Of such purpose, It
is not improbable that every thing calculated to pro-
woke alienation between the north and south will be
pressed into service. Federalism will omit nothing
TO convince the south that the limits of the United
States are already loo much erend.d but will the
south play into the hands of its enemies-the
mics Of the institutions of the country-by unreason
able exacons its part, and a repuse OF that spirit
Of compromise in which these glorious institutions
originated We hope not. From the Executive at
present installed in power, we know not what to
ticipate but upon the President ecct-the honest
faithful fearless representative of the rcpubca
OF the north and south-the country may rely for in
tegrty and frmness to battle all sinister, selfish in
rigues which aim TO susserve individual rather than
public interests. He will take exalted stand above
all personal factions and around him every lover of
bis country will rally every who holds the gran
deur, the glory, the perpetually growing power and
prosperity of American Union, above the petty
schemes of intriguing politicians Of the hour, will
unite 10 cover him with the renown Of adding
and brilliant constellation to the confederacy."
