by Polk, and the Loco-Foco Congress, under
the pressure Of the harassng difficulties before
them to pass sub siisatio. II they can manage
to keep these things from the knowledge of the
country, j should not doubt butthat such would
be their policy. la this matter / speak from
certain knowledge, having obtained my nfor-
nation from the mouth Of President Jones
himself Such are already the fruits Of An
nexation. Texas, that with whining. within
pering voice, has been begging and implo-
ring the United States for years TO take her
in, no sooner does she get admission, than ar
med and equipped after the true South Carroll
ma fashion, she comes bounding into the Union
under the black flag II Modification.
But this is notall-the British Government
has officially notified the President Of Texas,
that they consider their treaty of Commerce
and Amity with Texas, as still in force. (This
treaty, by itsexpress provisions, IS not to expire
until the year l34o)--that under this treaty,
the commerce and trade Of Texas may contin-
ue as heretofore to enter British ports, and that
the British Government will expect and re-
quire, that Texas on her part shall fulfil her
part OF the treatY--(a very reasonable expecta-
ton, BY the way.) They 90 on 10 say, that
they were no party TO this treaty OF Annexa-
ton. and are not bound by ii, and they know
of no law of nations, which will authorize
Texas by any voluntary act other own, to re-
pudiate her treaty obligations This also |
hear from the mouth Of President Jones, who
farther informed me, thathe was looking daily
for the ike notifications from France and other
Governments with whom Texas had like trea-
ties. What viii be the end of all this cannot
tell, but sure | am, that this is not even the
beginning of the end. in the event England
is driven to assert her claim to 10 Oregon by
ours, and doubt not she viii hold this up TO her
people as an additional justification.
