•= Mississippi, as if we owned and•tommanded-all the

- *weaker, - then, without Texas, even if ■he remained I
neutral; but I have oilmen it wool* be herinterest to
exclUde our cotton from foreign markets, and to co-op-
'ends with• England for that purpose. Eat if she did
' , remain neutral, could she preserve, or would England
respect„her neutrality? . Withcut an army, ships, or
4orts, no one will pretend then her neutml position
-could be maintained; and England could enter any of
- her streams and harbors, and rake possession of any
-of her soitat fileantro. Would she do so in the event
- , of a war with America? Let the events of the last
"war answer the question. Then, within sight of Val
paraiso, within the waters of neutral Spain, she cap
"lured the Essex, after a sanguinary and glorious de
fence. This was as complete a violation of the neu
qral sights of Spain, under the law of nations, as if
-aim had entered upon her soil to molest us. At Fayal,
VortoTntya, and Tunis she captured other American
. eessels, within the harbor a and under the guns of the
tarts of neutral powers; and, indeed, as to neutral ships
and goOds, and alt the maritime rights of neutral Ha
nlon., she acted the part of the outlaw and buccaneer,
rather than of a civilized kingdom; and violated the
neutral rights of all the world. Nor were her lawless
acts confined to the coasts and.harbors of neutral pow-
VTIS but extended also to an actual use and occupation
of her soil. During the last war, Spain was at peace
with England and America; but England, in open vir
iation of the neutral rights of Spain, seized upon
portion of Florida, (then a Spanish territory) whence i
she fulminated her incendiary appeals to the 'lases I
for a servile insurrection and massacre; and commen
ced, at Pensacola, her first preparations for the attack
-of New Orleans. And such. precisely, would he the
conduct of Great Britain, in the event of another war
with America. She would land suddenly at any point
of the coast of Texaz,and move along the.Stibino into
she territory of Texas, to the great bend, where it Ns
/presets:se within about one hundred miles of the Miss
lbisippit nod- the intermediate territory being but thinly
-settled, shecould advance rapidly across, seize the
'passage of the Mississippi, and cut off all communica
-eion from above, and descend upon Now Orleans.—
Or She might proceed a little further, through the
'territory of Texas to Red river, the southern batik of
*which is within the limits of Texas, and equip her
expedition; then by water descend the Red river, ex
citing a servile insurrection, and seize the Mississippi
at tbe mouth of Red river. All these movements she
might and would make through Texas. In this way
she would seize and fortify her position on the Miss
and New Orleans must fall, if cut off from all
communication from above. But, even if she only re
tained the single point on the. Mississippi, it would as
erffeettally commmand its nutlet, and arrest its com
merce ascending or descending, as if possessed of New
Orleans. Whatever point ,she seized on the Missis
aippi, there she would entrench and fortify, and tens
of thousands of lives, and hundreds of millions of dol
lars, would be required in driving her frem the posi
tion. All this would be prevented by the reannexa
lion of Texas. The Sabine and Red river would then
he all carmen, and no such movement could be made
.fortthe seizure of the Mississippi. Nor should it be for.
gotten, that, when she reached the Red river, and at a
navigable point upon its southern bank in Texas, there
she would meet sixty thousand Indian warriors of our
own, and half as ninny of Texas. whom her gold, and
her intrigues and promises would, as they always have
Jobe, incite to the work of death and desolation. If
we desire to know what she would do under such cir
cumstances, let us look back to Hampton and the Rai
sin, and they will answer the question. If for no oth
er reason, the fact that for many hundred miles you
have placed these Indians on the borders of Texas,
separated only by the Red ricer, and on the frontiers
of Louieinna and Arkansas, demands that. as an act
of justice to these States, and as essential for their se
astrity and that of the Mississippi, you should have
possession of Texas. Our bounders' and limits will
always be incomplete, without the possession of Tex
as; and without it the great valley and its mightiest
streams will remain forever dismembered and mutila
ted. Now, if we can acquire it, we should accomplish
the object; for, in all probability, the opportunity. now
neglected, VI ill be lust forever. There may have been
good reasons, a low weeks or months succeeding the
recognition of the Independence of Texas, and before
it was recognized by any other power, why it might
then have been premature to have reannexed the terri
tory; but now, when eight years have elapsed since the
declaration and establishment of the independence of
Texas, and seven years since it was syk , cognized by us,
and several years since the recopitition by France,
Holland and England, there can be no possible objec
tion to the measure.
I have shown that, in the event of a war with En
gland, Texas, if we repelled her from our embrace,
would become a complete dependency of England,
&hewed from ns in feeling in trade and intercourse,
and identified in all with England. But would it rest
beret No. Texas would first become a dependency,
and then, in fact, a colony of England; and her arms,
and ships, and power would he thus transported to the
mouth of the Mississippi. The origin of the immense
empire of England in India, was in two small trailing
estahlisbmnnts Then followed a permaneut occupan
cy of part of the coast; and India in time became a
British colony. And so will it be with Texas, which
ran furnish England—what it is,now ascertained In
dia never can—a supply of cotton. The largest vote
ever given in Texas was about 12,000. Of this the
British emigrants and British party now number about
1000; which, by the unfriendly feelings created by a fi
nal ref ts:110f reannexation, and the necessity of seek
ing another alliance, would he immediately increased
to four thousand, leaving a majority of 4000 only
against a union with England. Immediately a.rapid
emigration from England to Texas would be com
menced under their colonization laws, which give the
emigrant a home, and make him a voter in tia months,
and 5000 Englislitmigrants would overcome the ma-
jerity of 4000, and give England, through tl a ballot
box, the command of Texas. The preparation for this,
colonisation of Texas from England has all eady been
rondo. One English contract has already been signed
with the government of Texas, for the emigration there
of one thousand families; and three thousand one hun
dred more %sold give the majority to England. It
may be, to avoid the difficulty as to slavery ut home,
the nominal government for local purposes would be
left with Texas, or rather with English voters and mer
chants in Texas; but in all that concerns the commerce
and foreign relations of Texas, in all that concerns the
asempaacy and use of Texas in the event of war, the I
supremacy and authority of the British Parliament I
would be acknowledged. Much is concealed as re
tards the ultimate designs of England in regard to
Textile for to acknowledge them now would be to de
feat them, by.insuring reannexation to the Onion; but
*cough has transpired to -prove her object. Let us
examine the facts. Three treaties were made between
Great Britain and Texas, vir: on the 13th, 14th, and
16th of November. 1849. The preamble of one of
these is as fuller's:
"Her Majesty, the Queen of the United Kingdom of

THOMAS PHILLIPS, EDITOR
PITTSBURGH, MONDAY, APRIL 8, 1944
FOR GOVERNOR,
H. A. MUHLENBERG,
Co:serener:Fr.—The whigs are decidedly pleased
with the result of the election in Connecticut; the hot
' bed of blue light federalism is true to its old princi
phts and of course the whigs have some cause for re
joicing. Wherever the priori plea of the Hartford
Convention are prevalent, whiggery has a fair champ
of success. That memo cable assembly during the last
-war rejoiced when the foreign enemy gained any ad
vent age over the Ainerican forces, and it is not won
derful that there should be sufficient of the old leaven
left to make them rise in ectacy whenever the do
mestic enemies of true republican principles gain any
advantage at the present day.
The victory of the whigs in Connecticut is about as
wonderful an event as if the Dutch had conquered
Holland, but even with all the advantages of the odor
of the Hartford Convention that still hangs around it,
there is a sad falling off from their ;me of 1890.
_Then Harrison received 6305 majority, and ne w
3aldwin has only a plurality of 1468. There is a
loss in the aggregate vote of near 5000, while there is
a gain of near 2000 on the side ofthe d ma tcrats.
In this contest the whigs made the most desperate
efforts to carry their Governor by the vote of the peo
ple. Without they could do it, they felt certain that
they could not claim even blue light Connecticut with
any justice, and the iesult shows that they have signal
ly failed. After all their exertiuns they have lost
near ly five thousand of their former vote, and a ma
jority of the whole is against them. This is a piti
ful victory to rejoice over, and when calmly consid
ered, is a glo may omen fut Henry Clay in the Presi
dential conte
The N Y. Herald, remarking ou the result, says:
The result of this election, thus far obtained, is o f a
most exciting and interesting character. Compared
with the election for Harrison, iu 1890, it is very evi
dent that the whigs have lost grou id considerably.
In fact, both parties in Connecticut aro more nearly
balanced then we ever expected to see them. The
general result of the whole, and its moral effects, will
be to give additional interest and keenness to the ap
proaching presidential election. It is very evident
that if Mr. Clay is to be elected for this office, his
friends will have to work hardeb than they ever yet
have done. When we find the locofocos in Connecti
cut to pull an immense increase since 1840, the rea
sonable chances are that it will throw the whole coon
try into the hands of the Van Buren party, or at least
increase their chances in some respects.
HURRAH FOR JEFFERSON, 0!
JEITERSOII COUNTY ERICCI!-GRRAT VICTORY!!
"Behold how brightly break: the wirrhing."
The coons are rejoicing most boisterously, because
they have lost only 5,000 votes in Connecticut since
1840, but they take special nate not to say a single
word about the great victory achieved by the demo
crats in Jeffers on county, Ohio. They haven't heard
the news we suppose, the mails failed,or perhaps their
papers di,rnt publish the result. Who cares fur Con
necticut, that nest of blue light toryism; we dont, as
long as Jefferson is safe, even if the w higs had a ma.
jority of the votes—which they haven't—they are
welcome to it, fur we will, as heretofore, have enough
without it.
The Steubenv'lle Union is justly proud of the vic
tory, and promises when the "wart weather comes"
to du something still more notable.
The Coons may say that this victory is a small ore,
and not worth. boasting a bout, but it is a victory gain
ed with a ',thorny of voles, and that's more than
they can say for their triumph in Connecticut.
11-u-r-r-a-h for Jeffarson!
INDIVIDUAL LIABILITY.—Vice learn from the Har
risburgh Union, that the Senate on Tuesday, by a vote
21 to 5, passed through second reading, nn order to
be engrossed fora third, the bill to enforce the individ
ual liability of stockholders in banks. The bill, as
amended by Mr. CNAMPNILTs, provides diet the stock
holders of all banks hereafter incorporated or whose
charters maybe renewed, shall be jointly liable in their
individual capacity for the amount of notes issued by
such balks, as well as the stockholders of all banks
heretofore incorporated, for the notes issued after the
net becomes a law, and no bank shall be permitted af
ter first of September next, to re-issue any notes of a
date anterior to the passage of the act, unless the date
of such re-issue be endorsed thereon by the cashier.
It also provides for the settlements of the affairs of all
insolvent banks upon the principle of the bill, and for
the punishment of officers for the embezzlement of
the funds of the bank or special deposites, by a fine
not less than the embezzled. and imprisonmen at hard
labor for a term not exceeding two years.
Gen. MARICLIC is called by his party, the iVhig and
Ants:masonic candidate. In his letter accepting the
nomination, he does not make the slightest alluzion to
the antimasons. Perhaps the committee of whigs
from this city who waited upon him. informed him
that the antimaaons were broken sown and it was no
longer necessary to treat them with any courtesy.
IMPORTANT.—The War Club announces that its
Blends in Birmingham are awake.
The War Club says the Democrats have slandered
Gen. MARKLE. This we deny, and charge them
with slandering the General. Was it not the War
Club that started the story about Gen Markle killing
Indians in such a sanguinary manner, and has he not
declared that the story was false, that he had never
killed an Indian. Instead of slandering him we de
fended the General against the atrocious charge. but
the War Club, although it professes to be in favor of
him has never yet apologized for its attempt to- make
him a mere slayer of Indians.
rVii"We return our thanks to Messrs IsoinsoLL
and DAttnantt of the House for public documents.
ANOTHER MEL•NCHOLY Duct..—The New Or
leans Tropic states that a duel took place on the 24th
ult. between Gen Writ Deubuyi, the State Treasurer,
and Mr Richard Richardson. which is likely to be at
tended with fatal consequences, and deprive the State
of a valuable servant. The parties met at the Or
leans Ball Room, at 12 o'clock,arud fought with sharp
ened foils. Mr. Richardson was severely wounded
in the shoulder, and General Debuys was run through
the lower part of his body. But faint hopes were
entertained of his recovery.
itsoTuag ?4TEKT BRICK lklicEttea.—Twe citi
zen* of Troy, Al Y„ have obtained a patent for a ma
shine of theirincention, intended for pressing bricks.
This marliaeis simple in its coastzuctions, easily op
erated, of great power, and capable of pressing from
3,000 to 141,4100 bricks per day With the services of

ed for the same purpose, requires the services of five
outo. end ciao turnout but from 1,000 to 1500 Jiricke
per say. It will be evident that the new machine is
leer-saving to a remarkable degree.
I THE TARIFF MEETIKO.—A tunas meeting of the
friendsof the Tariff ; without respect us party, was held
at the Court House, on Saturday. Hon. H•astaa
Duty was christen President, and six Vice Presidents
and four Secretaries were appointed. Rickard Bid
dle, Esq., made • few remarks prefatory to some
excellent resolutions he had prepared, and which he
submitted to the meeting. The sentiments of these
resolutions, and the accompanying speech of the distin
guished mover of them, were well received, and as far as
they went, both were exceedingly well adapted to the
occasion—the resolutions passed unanimously. R.
H. Kerr, Esq.. offered a number of resolution* in ad
dition to those of Mr 8., to a hich he expressed him
self favorable. Mr K.'s resolutions took the ground
that the Tariff was a momentous question and should
be sustained with harmony and firmness by all parties
—that Mr T)Ver, TM' signing the present Tariff bill, de
serves the thanks of the country—that for the patron
age he has bestowed on the mechanics of this city, in
allotting the building of several iron ships to them, he
deserves the thanks of this community—that the
construction of an Armory for the west in this city
was called for by the public interest, and our represen
tative is urged to use his endeavors to promote the ob
ject—and that the meeting endorsed the sentiments of
the Hon H. Denny, that the Compromise bill was an
"abandonment of the Protective policy"—this was the
substance cf Mr K.'s resolutions, and no real friend of
the Tariff, whoirad no other object in view, but to se
cure its success, could have objected to them. But the
chairman decided that a portion of them could not be
considered under the call, which was to deliberate on
the Tariff only. When pressed to say what were the
obnoxious resolutions, he designated the allusion to the
Armory as irrelevant. We were surprised to see the
Hon. Chairman take this:indirect mode of suppressing
and throttling his former opinions of the Compromise,
and of preventing the meeting from passing upon them.
Although the meeting was a Tariff Meeting, there
might have been much more diversity of opinion upon
what the nature and extent of the Tariff should be, than
there could pessibly be about the Armory. No two
members of it, perhaps, would precisely agree about
the details of a Tariff Bill, if a new one were to be
made; yet people of every hue of opinion on other sub
jects, must be unanimous in desiring the establishment
of a National Armory. Mr Biddle, intwever, came to
the relief of the Chairman, and walked right up to the
point which that officer seemed so anxious to avoid ,
viz: the Compromisereselution. Mr B. said it pained
him to see any difference on a subject on which we
should be so perfectly united, andprotested against any
allusion to the by-gone notions of the chairman. He
said it would be an insult to any member of Congress
who might have once agreed with the chairman on this
Compromise matter, but who, like him, had changed
their views or had becomp wiser, to thus endorse an
old opinion, and cast it into their teeth.
The chairman persisted in his assumption that he
had a right to pass over any resolutions which he tho't
irrelevant—an appeal was taken from his decision
which ho declined to submit to the meeting—a substi
tute was then offered for Mr K.'s resolutions; Lut be
fore any question was taken, or any discussion permit
ted, an adjournment was moved, put, and declared to
be carried by the chairman.
But a majority of the meeting were not to be choked
off in this unceremonious style. When the Chairmen
retired, Ssn'L SNOWDXN. F,sq., was called to his
place, and Vire Presidents and Secretaries chosen.
Mr Black moved the adoption of Mr Kerr's resolu
tions. Thu floor was obtained by Mr T. J. Bigham,
aleading coon orator, and it was soon discovered that
his purpose was to prevent deliberation. He paid no
attention to the chairman's repeated calls to cader,and
even pulled out his watch, said it wanted an hour and
a half till sundown, and plainly intimated his intention
of talking against time. He and his friends kept the
house in a furious uproar, while Mr Black and others
were imploring silence so that he might be beard if he
bad anything to say, that the meetingought to hear. Du
ring this time, the chairman, after ineffectual attempts
to procure order, put the question on the resolutions,
and they were adopted.
It was finally arranged that Mr Bigham should speak
10 minutes, and that Mr Black should reply to him,
which that gentleman, it is needless to say, did moat
triumphantly. And thus ended a most miserable and
pitiful attempt on the part of the whig wire-workers to
do a very little fur the Tariff and a great deal for Mr
Clay. Hod they been sincere and single-minded in
their pretence of calling a meeting to advance the true
interests of our city, would they have objected to the
mention of the subject of an Armory? If they had not
been more anxious to defend the incoasistenoy of Mr
Danny, than to express their views of a measure lin and
they have been denouticing for years, would they have
evaded the subject of the Compromise? And if they
had been true friends to the prosperity of our city, would
they not have rejoiced in the occasion offered to award
justice to Mr Tyler for his endeavors to assist our mech
anics, and aid devel °pelmet of the resources of
our industrious population? We confidently leave
thesequestions to the people.
The following arc the Resolutions offered by R. H
KERR, Esq., and adopted by the meeting:
Resolved, That on the present momentous question
all minor differences should be dropped, and unite to
gether to maintain the present Tariff, which is highly
conducive to the prosperity and welfare of ourpeople.
and only gives them the protection which rightfully be
lon gs to them as American citizens.
Resolved, That we hold it the beat policy to take
care of our own people, and we most firmly believe that
the present Tariff act is well calculated to advance the
best interest of the manufacturers; to protect the mech
anics, and prosper the people generally.
Resolved, That the mechanics and manufacturers of
this district, acknowledge in terms of cordial upproba•
tion the conduct of President 7yler in signing the
present Tariff bill, and are willing to trust to his hones
ty and liberality fora Veto of any bill which Congress
may pass for its repeal.
Resolved, That the successful experiment made by
our mechanics, in the construction of Iron Steam ves
sels and munitions of war for the national defence,un
der the wise and liberal policy of the present adminis
tration, places the city of Pittsburgh upon elevated
ground in regard to the location of the contemplated
National Armory, and claims for her the preference
over all rivals.
Resolved, That this meeting repudiates the incon
siderate, if not to say unfounded asset Lion, made by the
onemies of this city that our 'Rivers are dried up one
doff tde year and frozen ',pike other kalif for at no
period of low water during the last summer was navi
