Great Rejoicing The Philadelphia Ledger
aaya, we have a supply of papers by a recent ar
rival from Texas, up to the 25th ult., and we find
they are filled with rejoicing at tee passage of
the Annexation resolutions by the United States
Congress. The citizens of both Galveston and
Houston testified the livlicst joy immediately an
the reception of the news, a fact which proves
what the journals of that country have always
asserted, that the people are strongly in favor of
the project, however much the prominent poli
ticians are opposed to it. It is from the latter
that the only opposition to the measure is to be
found. The vessels in the linrbor at Galveston
displayed the Star-Spangled Ilanncr and the Lone
Star in unison from their masts ; one hundred
guns were fired in honor of the event, and an il
lumination of the city was agreed upon with the
greatest unanimity. A public meeting was con
vened, at which (ien. Metnucan Hunt presided.
A preamble and resolutions, expressive of the
joy of the people at the prosppct of becoming
once more citizens of the United States, were
drawn up and passed without dissent from any
person present.
A committee was appointed to address the in
habitants of Texas upon the great event, and (
every thing indicated an unanimity and fervor of
popular sentiment in favor of Annexation, which
we had scarcely anticipated from the rumors that
have reach-d us of late from that country. It
was also requested, bysp'cia! resolution, for
President .Tones to call an extra session of Con
gress, for the purpose ol'nscertaining the will of
the people in respect to annexation. At Hous
ton there was the same evidence of prat ideation
It was hailed with a burst of enthusiasm by the
citizens that has n ver b -en exceeded. The
news of the victorious battle of Sun Jacinto
scarcely excited such general and enthusiastic
rejoicing, the sound of the drum and other musi
cal instruments, the roar of cannon, and the loud
shouts of th" multitude, resounding long after
midnight. It is thought a favorable ind'cat'on on
the part of Preid-nt Jones that he should have
appointed th" Hon. David S. Kaufman, an ardent
friend of Annexation, as Charge ilWfTuires to the
United States. We ropy the following from the
Galveston News :
''It will now be expected that every man in
Texas will speedily make up his mind and de
clare his sentiiiii-nts upon the proposed measure
of annexation. Although th joint resolutions
which have just received the sanction nf the U.
States Government do not embrace all the pro
visions, or give us that ample and rnmplete jus
tice whiih we rould desire, yet they present to
us no important or solid grounds of objection.
We ccitainly rould not expect the Government
of tin: United States to leave us our land anil
yet assume the p.iym"tit of our national debt ;
nor indeed rould we exp-ct that Government to
iissnm our debt on any terms, while the amount
of it has never b en ascertained by our own Go
vernmeut, but is left to vagu" nnd indefinite con
jecture ; so that in the United States it has beer)
represented by men. supposed to be widl inform
ed upon nich matters, to vaiy from fifty tn one
ttnmhnl nt Minis .' And in reg.ird to our public
lands, the showiii;! by this Government is still
more indefinite and conjectural. So much so
that our best inform.'d citiz-ns differ widely in
regard to th amount of our vacant teiritory.
Upon the subject, therefore, of our Government
liabilities and unappropriated public lauds, all
we could eipxt at this tini! was that they)
should both be left entirely to our disposition ;
and this accordingly has been done. The ques
tion of boundary every Texan will be glad to
liave settled by the United States If the United
States rould be supposed to have an interest in
this matter adverse to our own if we rould be
permitted to make the preposterous assumption
that the Government will have a disposition to
narrow down and circumscribe her own limits,
and enlarge those ot Mexico, for the purpose of
doing injustice to the citizens of Texas, then in
deed we mayobj 'it to this provision of the joint '
resolutions. j
"II such absurd exceptions will be taken, in j
pite of that complete identity and harmony of j
interest that chururteri.es the two governments i
if the opponents of annexation are determined
to find fault with every provision that militates
in the slightest d-gree against our complete so- ;
sereignty auj independence, as we expert they j
will, in artier to be consistent with their own de
clared hostility to the measure (hen our thort I
answer must he, that they argue against every j
airoposed incisure iu detail, merely because they !
intend te oppose every possible measure that can
be devised. Aad such, in fart, has been the case j
lip to this time. The Treaty of Mr. Tyler was
piused by our government journal at that time,
chielly span tbe greuud that it deprived us of our
public lands. The government journal at this
time is opposing the Joint Resolutions because
they leave us the incumbrance of our own debts,
and impair our sovereignty. Mr. Benton's reso
lutions are objected to because they settle no
thing but the naked question of annexation,
leaving the details to be determined upon by ne
gotiation and coir.pjoinise Mr. Brown's, again,
are found very exceptionable, b 'cause they set
tle too much, leaving too little to negotiate. In
order to satisfy saco abjections, it is evident we
must renounce annexation altogether ; and we
now forewarn the people of Texts not to allow
their early attachment to the Anieiican Union
to be weskeaed, nor those strong ties of affection
of interest and kindred to be alienated by such
captious and designing arguments against the
overtures of the United States, nor by specious
promises of transatlantic friendship and 'strin
gent alliances' with European monarchies, from
which this country is to be inundated with for
eign wealth, and Texas made the Eldorado of
America.
'-To our friends in the United States, we will
nay, (and think we shall be sustained by the e-
vent ) that, at least, nine tenths of the people of
1 1' '. 1 .! J!1 " I '. I I'.' 11111' I i '3
this country are unchangeably ia favor of An
nexation ; and of our planters and farmers, the
bone and sinew of the land, including the early
settlers, whose strong right arms and indomitable
courage have triumphantly achieved our liber
ties of those more than nineteen-twentieths
look to their re union with the great American
family of States as the sheet-anchor of their hopes
Single-handed and unaided, thry have secured
their freedom and they want no foreign powers
to guaranty their independence. While they de
sire the friendship of all nations, they do not ex
pect unbought fuvors fr m any. They under
stand the essential elements of civil liberty too
well to be dazzled with the empty name of na
tionality, purchased at the expense of political
dependence. Their desire is to secure a govern
ment for the sake of its blessings, and not its
name. l!ut if any name can have a charm in
this country, the privilege of saying ''I am an
American citizen" is the proudest distinction
known to the people of Texas."
President Jones has vetoed the act of Congress
reducing the duties on imported goods.
The Galveston News says that Gen. Arista has
sent despatches to the Texan Government by
way of Corpus Christi. The purport of these
despatches is said to be nn invitation to the Tex
as Government to join the Mexican General in
an expedition against the Camanche Indians that
have become the pest of the Rio Grande settle
ments. Just before the New York left Galveston, a
British man of war entered that port, bearing
despatches to Capt. Elliott, British F.nvoy, from
his Government. It was said that this vessel
had a vast amount of money nn board, and that
the despatches contained instructions to Captain
Klliott to offer to guaranty the national indepen
dence of Texas, provided the annexation resolu
tions are rejected. It was further reported that
the French Government had also offered the same
guaranty on the same conditions. Private ad
vices assure us that when these prepositions
were made known in Galveston, the people
snapped their lingers, saying "the foreigners
were too late."
Capt. Klliott set out for the capital immedi
ately after receiving his despatches M. Saligny,
the French Charge, was already there.
There is a report in the Texas papers that
Santa Ana bad made his escape.

The Cumberland Alluhaninn mentions an in
genious mode lor the conveyance nf coal, about
to be constructed by Mr. Brant. It is made up
uf three? plank?, one for the Iwittom, and one for
each side . It is about 12 inches at the bottom
mil 1(1 inches high at the eides. Ti coal it
thrown into this conduit at the; mouth of the
mine, where the water is also le't in, and it
floats off with tho greatest rapidity. It will
carry from one thousand to two thousand bosh,
id per hour a distance of two and a half miles.
There is not much friction, and consequently
very little breaking or wearing- away ol the
lumps olcoal. If Mr. B. cm procure an abun
dance of water at the mines, and con.lriict his
conduit to Cumberland, i will certainly bear a
way the palm of cheap conveyance. It is be
lieved he will sucreed. The distance is about
ten miles, the descent sulTicient, and the encour
agement flattering.
