4TH QF JULY IN TEXAS.

All our antcpations ofthe action of Texas, in regard to annexation, have been fully and glofiousiy realized.
 Her Congress unanimously accepted our terms of annexation; and on the 4TIl OF JULY, now more memorable and glorious than ever, her Convention ratified and con iirmed (with only one dissenting voice. ti4e action of Congress. And, in addition, re- oues,ed the President of the United States, 10 send our troops into the country. This last has been done; and the noble State of Texas-the largest and tarest sister of the Confederation, is now ours, alike by agree ment of all parties, by the forms prescribed by law, and by possession. If England, France, Mexico, single or combined, want her, lot them come and take her.
 The Constitution of the State of Texas, to be presented to our next Congress, will, we !. have no doubt, be all that her best lriends can desire.

DErARTnlENT OF STATE,

DEPARTNiENT OF STATE-
 Washington on the Brazos, April II, l845.
 The undersigned, Attorney General of the republic of Texas, charged ad interim with the direction of the Department of State, has the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the uotc addressed to him, under date of the 3lst ultno, by the Hon. Mr. Donelson, charge d'aGaifs oi the United State, S,c, &c., trans miaing the joint resolution recently adopted by the Congress of the United States, relating to the annexation of Texas to the federal Union; and informing this government that his exccllcncy the President of the United States has selected the FIRST and SECOND sections of the resolution as the basis of ac- ton yet necessary to be had on the subject leaving out of view the remaining or THIRD section.
 The President Of this republic has read wi.h deep interest tAe proposition contained in Mr. DonaIson's communication; the req sons which induced the President of the U. States 10 select the profered basis; and the Ipej3 application of the views, dispositions, and intentions of tl}e eagerlaaent and people of lhag Union respecting this republic, and the rights aad interests of her citizens and go= venment connected with the terms of that basis, and the new and interesting relations proposed to It eventually consummated thereby, as presented iH the hote referred to- aad notwithstanding the great physical pros ration occasioned= by a severe attack of ili- ness which has confined the President for the last ten days to a bed of sickness, he has given 10 the contents of }lr. Donelson's note tHe consideration due 10 their great impor- lance, viewed in conneXion with their pro- bable influence upon the future destiny ol this nation.
 The intimate acquaintance of Mr. Donel- son with the institutions and organic law of this republic renders t unnecessary for the undersigned to make known to him that the President is not clothed with the power either of accepting or rejecting the terms of the propositions presented by the note refer red to Under such circumstances, he is im- pelled bV sense of the high duties of his station, at so important a juncture' to call to his aid the assembled representatives of the people, and 10 avail himself of the benefits of their counsel and deliberations touching the important matters communicated byZblr. Donelson; to whom the undersigned has the honor announcing, under the instructions of his excallancy, that he. has determined, at an carly day, 10 convene the Congress of the republic, when he will lay before that honor- able assembly, fer it's consideration an action. the note of the honorable Mir. Donelson, and the joint resolution herewith transmitted
 In communicating which, the undersigned aga;ls himself of the occasion to renew to Mir Douelson the assurance of the high re- gard with which he has the honor 10 remain his most obedient, faithful servant.
 FBFN'R ALLEN.
The Arkansas banner., 1845-08-06

For the reasons suggested, the undersign- ed deems it his duty respectfully to inquire of Mr. Donelson whether, under such cir cunstances, calculated to excite the reason- able apprehensions of the people of Texas, and especially to disturb the tranquility of the settlements along her western frontiers, it would not be alike proper and consistent for inc United States to extend its protection to this republic2
 The people of Texas would regard the presence of the requisite force on their from tiers in no other light than as an act of jus tice and friendship properly accorded during the pendency of the measures Ill progress for annexation, and as an indication of the aid instlv due them in the completion ofthe con- sttutional steps yetnecessary 10 their admis- sion into the Union.
 The performance of the condition required by the U. States, of Texas, in acting upon the terms of the overture for annexation, ne- cessarily subjects the people of this republic to very onerous expenses, the burden of which operates with far greater severity in of the non-payment oi the sums due to this government from the United States, for claims arising in the cases of Sniyely and the coIlectoral districts of Red river.
 The undesigned cannot for a moment en- tertaia the belief that the United States will require that Texas shall alone sustain these burdens; and especially, in the event of re- newaI of war by Mexico, that this republic will be expected to bear exclusively its bur dens; since, in reality, such a war would be hastened and occasioued by the acts, and aimed at the interests, no less of the Uni ted States than of Texas.
 To this subject the undersigned has, by the direction of the President, solicited the atten- ton of the Hon MT D.; and has been author ized by him to say, that, in case of the antici- pated emergency, the passage of United States troops through the Texan territory, to its western frontier, will be welcomed and lacili- lated by tie constituted authorities, as well as by the people oflhis country.
 The undersigned renews to Mf. Boneisoa the assurances of his distinguished considera- fion and regard, and remains his most obedi- ent servant.

 WASHINGTON, TEXAS, March 3l, lS35. The undersigned, charge d'ailaires of the |. States, has the honor to transmit herewith, To the Hon. EbeHezer Allen, Attorney Gcner- al of the republic of Texas, and charged ad interim with the direction ol the Department of Foreign Affairs, the joint resolution which has been recently adopted by the Congress oi the United States, for the annexation ol Texas te the Union.
 This important measure has thus beer brought to the eonsummatioh so confidently anticipated by the undersigned, in his com munieation oi the 10th December last. to thi. governments and he trusts that it may be re. ceived as justfespouse to the wishes efth5 people Of Texas, alike honorable 10 both countries, and worthy of the reciproeallv na- uonal interests which have so long demand cd it.
 Il now remains lol the government and people of Texas, by their acceptance and ratification oi the provisions contained in this joint resolution, to finish the great work oi annexation; and to assume their s,atoR as all independent, equal, and sovereign mem Der oi the American confederacy, as soon as the constitutional requirements, usual in the admission of new States, can be compiled with.
 Anxious 10 execute the trust deyolved up- on han, by the resolution referred to, in the manner best calculated to secure it's objects, and with the least inconvenience and delay 10 Texas, the President of the United States has instructed the undersigned 10 inform this government that he has selected us the basis ot the acton yet necessary on the subject, the first and second sections of the reSolu- tion-leaymg out of view the remaining or thlrd section. This last section. as the lion. Mir. Allen Is aware, was added as an amendment, and leaves it optional with the President 10 resort 10 the means il creates for an adjustment oi the terms of annexation on oasis different from that offered in the first and second sections. which constituted the blll as It originally came to the Senate from the House oi Representatives. l. was doubt less intended to place in the hands of the President the means of ohviating such ob- jectlons as Texas might possibly make to the details of the propositions contained in the two preceding sections; but, in doing SC. il complicates the process, and is otherwise productive of disadvantages so considerable. as to induce the President not to rely upon 1t as the most appropriate or practicable mode of securing to Texas speedy admis- sion into the Union.
 lis obvious, that if the discretionary pow CT contemplated by the third section wert resorted to, the action on the part of thi: government, which can now settle the ques- ton of annexation, would he deferred until The new negotiation, 10 be made by commis-

LEGATION OF THE UNITED STATES.
 Washington, (feXas) June II, 1915. :.
 The undersigned, charge d'ailiaires of the United States, referring to his note of the 24th ult answer te that of the 18th from the Hon. Mr. Allen, on the subject of the protection which, under certain emergencies, the United States would be expected 10 afford Texas, has the satisfaction of replying more explicitly, in conformity to instructions which he has re- ceiyed iron President of the United States.
 Reciting several indications of the bellire- rent intentions ofMeXico, the Hon. 1Ir. Allen remarks, that "a new invasion of the territory of Texas may be reasonably apprehended, if the proposals lately received from the United States, for the annexation of Texas to the fede- raj Union, should be accepted by Texas; of which result, the sure indications of the popu- lar will, exhibited from the various portions ot the republic, present to the mind an assu- rance So strong as to challenge conviction, and leave scarcely possible room fordonbt:an , and alter further asking whether, under such circumstances, so well calculated to disturb the tranquility of the settlements along the western frontier of Texas, it would moi be
