It is sup.; posed by some that !its company fell in with-the rriin at the National Bridge, and Itm&gotte on with it, but it is feared by others that the eienpaily has been cut off by the Mexicans.

Mr. GM/Mit, says :—"Although mysla whig, Yet if I had the power to make a Presi dent of the United States, and if I knew who, in the high ollieenf President, would *Moister de gm ernment in the greatest Milky and most towards restoring it to what it was in the early days of the 14- I(tiblie, t would make that man President, tiu tritaiMi' to what party he might nomi nillylngeng." TIMAS ANNEX.4.IION.—A letter of Gen. Houston, on the subject of the un ,nexatiou of Texas. and the causes which li•il to it, has 'made its appearance. The letter was drawn out by one from Mr. Ty ler, and belong,. to the history of the times. The 'revelations in this letter of Gen. Houston arc not less extraordinary than were the causen.which, Mr Tyler alleges, induced his action in the matter of the an imation of Texas. It will be seen that Gen. Honshu' gives what may be called a flat tleuial to the Material statements of Mr. Tyler, and in doing this makes ad missions quite as remarkable as anything known to the public of the whole course of thiii - afittir: Mr. Tyler says lie was induc ed to take the initiative steps in the annex ation, because 'he had received ”euthentic information" that other governments were moving to place Texas in opposition to the interests of the United States. Con. Houston gives this a distinct denial, and atlinitis that all that was charged in the matter. in Texas and out of it, was got tip for the purpose of exciting the jealousy or fears at the United States, and as a means to draw theist in favoring annexation—that isreltfat Oldie linnets and pretended devel opetnetritt 'about the "mternteddling of for eigh powers.

His recent conversion to the Slavery-pammmding policy of the Government, ss announced 1n his forks county letter. while it tarnishes anode er lamentable illustration or entire abeenct; of po litical integrity, seems likely to call up from the sombre legions or the pass, visions of "documents" quite as "ugly" as any that have dogged his foot steps In other unfortunete political senors ets. In the manifesto to the . Berke county meeting, Mr. HUCNANAIf taker occasion to refer to the Wil mot Proviso, which he condemns are a' mere ab straction and opposed to ”the compromise of the Constitution," and thinks "the line of the Missouri compromise should be extended to any new terri tory which we may acquire from Mexico." ,In oth , or worda, all the territory now belonging to this Union, or to be acquired by it, south of 86° 30 1 , should be regarded as a proper field fire the intro duction and extension of the Slave Institution. Un fortunately for Mr. Becasyser, the York Republi can re-publishes from some "old documents," the proceedings ea public meethig; in which:lWe.

A third resolution, says the Republican, report ed by the same Committee, and also unanimous ly adopted, recommended to the earnest consider- Anon of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, then a bout to commence its annual session, the proprie ty of instructing their representatives to "use their most zealous and strenuous exertions to prohibit the existence of Slavery in any of the territories or States which may hereafter be created by Congress," Such were the sentiments et Mr. Buchanan in 1819; and they are exactly coincident with the principle of the Wilgnot Proviso. That proposes "to prohibit the existence of Slavery in any of the States or territories which may hereafter be crea ted by Congress." This is what Mr. Buchanan approved of twenty-eight years ago as "the caw, sf lustier, Humanity and Patriotism." Now he would permit Slavery to be extended over tenito ry acitstilly free, and to be conquered for the ex press purpose of subjecting it to the curse of hered itary bondage! LP' The Reading Journal contains a spir ited review !Atha doings of the "Democratic Har vest Home in Old Berks," which was gotten up by our alarmed opponents as a kind of cloak to conceal the wide-spread disaffection pervading their ranks, and with "glorious" accounts of which the Lessofoco newspapers are just now borthened.

Hotter, known to the Courts of Adams County as in some way connec ted with previous pardons," were among the speakers called together to teach "Democracy" to the good people of Berks County, and show them the propricly of sustaining" Honest Frank Shank." It seems, however, that after all said and done the purposes of the getters up of this "great" meeting are not to be realized. The Journal con cluded its notice . with the following paragraph: "So nr as the Anti-Shunk feeling in this coun ty is concealed, it has versed rather to widen the breach than to mend matters. We are persuaded that no Mar Meeting which the Whig party could possibly have got up, would have done so much for the cause of lame, PArrore and Rz- POlll3ll. The spectacle of the Governor of the Com monwealth, and the candidate for Canal Commis sioner, accompanied by a train of official depend ants, travelling round the country, mounting the stump, and begging votes as a street loafer would half-pence, Nis served but to disgust all right think ing men. It has proved what has been charged upon Shook, that be is so greedy for office as to have lost all sense of the proprieties of his official position in a desperate attempt to secure for him self more of the plunder and more of the spoils of our much abased & misgoverned Commonwealth."

It is to coerce unwilling opinions into the sup. poet of the Mexican war—hourly becoming more unpopular, as the recent elections dearly demon- straio—that the malactionsof the Union are lay- Mid upon those who, In the war of 1812, would not be driven to sustain men or measures that they did not confide in or approve : ■nd if in this course unavoidable blows are struck at some id' the chief supporters of Mr. Polk, the necessity attic case Is pleaded in extenuation, and the individuals strick en, are themselves—such ls the meanness of con vettsfor office' sake—not dissatisfied, since it may seem to strengthen the party whereby they now live. It will he in vain, however—as it should he in vain. There can be no mere slavish, no more dangerous doctrine, than that, when once a coun. -try is engaged in war, its citizens are by that fact alone committed to the support of such fear. Once let thatbetheireceived.rminion-and-prnetice,-asthe Union is so anxious to make it, of this Republic— and then, however wicked, corrupt, and reckless an administration, it has only to add to its other misdeeds the crime of wanton and unnecessary war—to set all investigation at defiance, to hush all opposition. The Whig party in Congress committed—as it has always seemed to us—a wrong against their own principles, in voting, as they with so tow exceptions did, at the COllllllOllOO. moot of this untoward war, for the lying pream ble, which asserted that war to be the act of Mexi co. This was a trap deliberately set for thorn by the Locofocos, and with their eyes open the Whigs walked into it—through fear of jolt such contour pit ble sneers as that from the Union, with which these remarks commence. They were afraid—that is the true word—they lacked the moral courage of their own convictions—and rather than give an occasion to the unscrupulousness of party to charge thorn with refusing supplies of men and money to ouY beleaguered army on the banks of the Rio Gnutde—they consented to vote for what they knew'svas not true. That vote has been again and again quoted against them, with fatal effect, since, whenever uttering through the press, or on the floor of Congress, their condemnation of the origin of the war, so clearly traceable to Mr. Polk and Mr. Walker, to speculation in Texas lands, and speculation in slavery. In that vote, a lesson was given which may, it is hoped, not be without effect,—of the obligation which rests upon all true men—never to be false to themselves—never to ffrego their own honest con. victions—ebove all, never to assert what they know to be untrue. There is but one course, as it seems to us, for all honest men to pursue—who believe, as we do, that the war was wantonly and deliberately under taken and provoked by this Administration—first as a party move, to ensure the party ascendency —and secondly as a corrupt speculation, both in creating numberless offices and jobs for dependents and sycophants, and again in giving value to Tex as lands, and extension of- the institution of Sla very. For all who share these opinions there is, we repeat, but ono honest course, in our judge ment, and that is to insist upon bringing the Ad ministration to an avowal, explicit and distinct, of its aims in continuing the war, and of the terms upon which it is willing to terminate it. Mean time to take care that men and money in suffici ent amount be provided to prevent disaster , to our troops in the field; but resolutely and earnestly to insist that a stop be put to the war forthwith upon terms not unsuited to our honor, and to which Mexico may; under the circumstances, also adhere with honor. But conquest, territorial acquisition, and above all the extension of Slavery, these must be, should be, resisted, as entailing upon the Union such • harvest of discontent, such seeds of future bitter ness, as not all Mexico could compensate Its for, and all Mexico, if acquired, cannot save us from. Again, then, we say, that Whig men and Whig journals have no higher duty to perform just now, than exposing the hollowness, the danger, and the insolence of a faction, accidentally possessed, and through false pretenses, of the power of Govern ment, undortakiug to proscribe all freedom of of opinion among a nation-of freemen, and requi ring them, as the German oppressor of Switzer land required Wm. Tell and Itbs countrymen, to bow down to the Executive rescrip, or take the consequences. The free Swltzera did take the consequences, and so did the German oppressor.
