Texas.

1t appears by letter from Texas to
the New York Tribune that the passage
Of the act Of congress Of the 3lst Decem.
Der, ls45, extending the laws of the
United States over Texas, has thrown
that government into confusion. The
present government of Texas contends
iha: this law is in violation Of her consIl-
lution-and that the republic does not
merge into state until the organisation
of the state government, as provided for
by the constitution. Upon this subject,
the people and government, are clamerous
and dogmalic. President Jones, in view
Of these points and difficulties, has in
structed his collectors at Galveston and
other points, not TO surrender the custom
houses-,o resist, if need be, until over
whelmed by force: and TO continue to
collect duties, according to the Tariff of
Texas, not only from foreign nations,
but also from the United States, until their
sta, government has gone into operation
Nor does the matter nor the difficulty
end here. The British government, it
appears, has officially notified the presl-
dent of Texas, tina, they consider their
treaty Of commerce and amily with Tex
as, as still in force. This treaty, by its
express provisions, is not to expire until
the year lSis)--Ihat under this treaty.
The commerce and trade of Texas may
continue, as heretofore, to enter British
ports, and that the British government
will expect and require, that Texas on
her part shall fulfil her par. of the treaty.
The British government say that they
were no party to this treaty of annexa'
alton, and are no, bound by it. and they
know of no law Of nations, which Will
authorize Texas by any voluntary act oil
her own, to repudia'e her treaty obl'ga-
tons.

these statements from president Jones,
who is daily expecting like notifications
from France and the other governments

of provision inhibi,ng the iuvesturc for life of

II is rather amusing to witness the rivalry be-
tween the wings and the aboliionis,s in this
state, at the present time, as to which Of these
parties shall be the strongest at the next August
election. The abol,ionists are busy as bees
their best speakers are in the field and every
nan, woman and child is at work. Iato and
early, through rain and sunshine, they fight aud
work, and work and fight. On the other hand
the wings are injolcnt and sleepy, and seldom
even move themselves, save when the Liberty
muskctry shakes their camp and wakes drowsy
sentinel, who perchancc may stretch his aching
bones, rub h' sleepy eyes. prime his rusty gun,
and make great smoke with little powder. The
noise having scared nobody, he then commences
a ,iride Of ahusc-lirst men, then women, now
preachers then dCacons, next the world at large
and then in particular underground r0ihood,."
We have no sympathy with either of the an.
tagonists, and therefore wish to see fair play and
no gouging The industry Of the aboli,ionisls IL
commendablc, even il in a bad cause; and the
aud ill.humor Of the wings is in the
highest degree discrcdtabe, and we hope to see
them speedily reform or they must dwindle into
insigniicancc, for il The democracy have to fight
either party they naturally would prefer the indc-
len, aud sleepy wings to the active, un,iIing,
wiley, underground rooiing Of the abolition
lsts.
