"THE SOUTHERN PLor.'' The following is the
ridiculous hulnbug, which Mr.. Houston recently ex
pIoaed in the Senate. How can any man be brazen
enough to fabricate so monstrous fable!
From Washington Cor. Of PHILADELPHIA Enquirer.
In January last, Gen. Lopez waited upon Gen. Sam
Houston, and presented him with paper, drawn up
by leading Southern men in this city, in which it was
stated that the South desParlng OF Justice had de-
ernined to sever their connection with the Union,
and establish Southern confederacy. That for the
purpose of Strengthening the contemplated confeder-
acy oyertures were be made to Mexico to join 1t;
and Incline her to do every effort was to be made
to induce her frontier provinces to revolt by the means
of" Buffalo hunts' and secret emissaes; and 1t was
then be represented to her that her only safety III
guarding against these revots and the dismembernent
Of her republic, was to join the Southern States OF
this country and form strong Southern Union AS
farther inducement, it to be represented to her
that the city of Mexico be the seat OF govern
ment, but that, in fact, Texas was to be really the
head of the new Republic. Gen. Houston was also |
told that if he would Join the movement he should
be President.
Gen. Houston Indignantly refused to have anything
to do with the base and traitorous scheme. He was
an American, and devoted friend Of this glorious
Union. He was not Catane. to betray his country.
Mr.. Calhoun was fully aware of this reasonable
project, but he opposed to any action being taken
until final proposition to amend the constitution |
should be asked tor. This course was not, however,
approved of by others, and emissary was sent to
the city of Mexico, unfold the matter there The
Mexican authorities received the proposition with
some hesation and although they did not refuse it,
they insisted upon guarantee being given that their
laws regarding religion and the abolition of slavery,
should remain, and that England should sustain the
movement.
A proposition to this effect was made to Mr. Doyle,
acting charge d'affares of Great Britain In Mexico
Mr. Doyle, not to commit himself in any way, de-
cned to express any opinion, but said he would con-
suit his Government The Mexican Government,
fearing to unless sustained by Great Britain,
delayed giving answer; and it is understood Eng
land has not taken any notice of the project submit
ted to her. So the matter rests.
But this treason should be branded in such a way
to leave no room for denial. Gen. Houston has in
his possession the paper which first alluded, and
he knows who the authors of the conspiracy The
country will look to him for development of the
whole affair.
GENUINE ELooUENcE. The following is part of
the peroration of Mr. Clays late speech. 1t is pity
the patriotic sentiment is not oftener carried out:
