important from TcIas---A Lick Back for
Annexation!

The steamship New-York from Galveston, ar
rived at New-O Orleans on the l3thinst with adyces
| to the Sth.
| The News is important The Government Of
Teras ,cW not consent 10 Anneration on The terms
of the House Resolutions but nil oppose 1t TO the at
iern,oa We always knew and insisted that Pfesl-
dent Jones was anti-Annexation from the start, and
would do wha, he could Tor dared) to defeat any
Annexing project that might be started. So lar as
his opposition is concerned, these advices are mol
news But there cannot be doubt that the shape
in which Annexation is proflerGd by the original
House Resolutions is exceedingly dstasteful TO the
Texans. The AssumptionLo of the Texas National
Debt by our Government would have made many
of them rich; for that Debt would have proved OF
A most Inda-rubber expansibillty. But this ls for
hidden by the House Resolutions, while they con-
tain various requis,lons which must seem humill-
aing TO those Texans who really possess any Ma
tional pride or sensibility. Accordingly, the NG-
iional Register Government organ. at Washing
ton, the Texan capitaD opens with perfect Ierociy
ON the House project of Annexation, though avow-
ing itself friendly TO the measure on fair terms. 1t
objects 10 the required surrender OF all the Public
Property of Texas Cher Public Lands excepted) to
settle with Mexico The boundaries of Texas, and
! to the humbug Compromise on the subject ot Sla-
ycry 1t protests against the state Of ibecile and
hopeless dependence" on the U. States in which the
House proposes to place Texas, and pronounces 1t
the actmi pit and Craze Of insgnifcdncc and M
fanny" The article is ably addressed to the preju-
dces as we'll as the just pride of the Texans, and
must have an effect The Gaireston Cipilian (orl-
| gnally but not noisily opposed to Annexaiion)
echoes and seconds the sentiments OF the Register
The Galreston Nctcs feebly stands out for Annexa-
ton, bur does not justify the terms proered by the
House Resolutions. II is known that ex-Presldent
! Houston despite his relations with Gen. Jackson)
will do his best against Annexation on the terms
proposed. The Galveston correspondent OF Ben
| aett's Herald I'VE believe this is genuine, under
date of March l,h, writes:
"The People are opposed the bill of Annexation and
the opposition is gaining ground fair treaty. ss State,
assuming pa6c debt &c. would be accepted almost
unanimously but they do not like this mongrei Annexa-
| iion.'
Ii would be rich business, certainly 1t our COW
citing our neighbors' property should get us into
| war with Mexico tcithout giving as Ttras We
| shall see what we shall see
Gen, Duff Green, who has been, with modesty
|
| ing the Texas Government on short acquaintance,
finding his services unappreciated by President
Jones, has gone into mercantile operation the
San Fatrcio, and means 10 be in the next Congress
| 10 hurl thunderbol,s NJ the Administration. Duff
proposed TO form company to conquer sundry prov
lnces of Mexico as speculation, by means Of
volunteer force of United Staters and Indians Of
equally accommodating morality, and take his pay
IN 'spoils.' President Jones would not promote ihe
speculation; whereupon Duff threatened 10 upset
aim! Jones ordered Duff out of his presence and
broke him as U $. Consul at Galveston. Duff, 10
| avenge himself, becomes a Texan, and concludes
10 20 10 Congress at once The reason why he
did n'toier at for President was the long
, time 10 intervene before Presidential Election.
