ANOTHER NEW WREPUBLIC.-The subion.

p0blic:-

the Disric,s OF Nscogdoches and the Aysh Bayou
declared the Province Of Texas free and indepen A.

and white, being emilia attic OF union between the
red ard white men, as it is stated that the change
OF government was Effected BY the countenance and
cooperation Of many tribes OF Indians. The new

Monday in February, TO form Constitution and
appoint Executive Ofcers. The following gentle.

Thompson, ]. Sprow, Esq. and DR.. J. A. Huber.


F'om Tp.ros We have information OF disposition
on the part OF the Americans who have emigrsted
thither, 10 declare themselves independent ci Mex.
ico and that they have ever gone far ta elect
persons TO compose Congress or Convention to
form Constitution.


We havcs feeling for all People willing to be free
and struggling under oppression but az we under
stand the matter. We have little sympathy with the
Revolutionists Of Texas.


Texas is part of the Republic Of Mexico, and
the people who inhahit il are probably more free
from burthcns and exactops than they would be
under government Of their own. The emigrants
thither from this country have. entering the lin
its. enjoyed the hospitality of the Government.
They are represented in the Government--they en-.
ny equal rights with other citizens OF the Republic.
II the, do not. have heard that they do not
I These benefits they are about to reque by turning
heir arms against their benefactots. They have
mistaken spirit Of adventure and encroachment ior
10 vearning sfer Independence. and have projected
revolution 10 reality possessing all the features oil
rebellion and invasion, wi hout preext OF such mo-
ives an ia low inc one bNu JuStUy inc OtnET.


The object Of these Independents is, we ptesume,
TO ofer the Territory thus declared independents TO
he United States. But The Government OF The u
rned States would (alwsys speaking our own opin.
ior ony) be faithless 10 the most solemn engage
nenls. u the most friendly professions which it
has made and repeated to the Government OF Mex
leo were IL to accept such present.


We not long ago, by solemn Tsea,y, left Texas
in possession OF Spain. as part Of Mexico. Mexco
hoo ipIe spdenf Repuhiir Shall
we AXE from young Republic (for it would be ia
kinE) hat we would not lake from an old and des
po,ic Monarchy? Justice, generosity, and regard
tor national cha acter forbid such treachery to
the principle OF good faith by which this country
has been guided in its relations with foreign
powers.


But, il no consideration Of principle intervened
to induce the Government Of the United States to
withhold its countcnaDce from these g. Independ
ents. sound poiicy forbids it. 1t is not the policy
OF this country to encourage revolution here, rev
olution there and revolution every where. IL 10
rather OF consequence TO US to promote the stability
ot Governments in all tries, where Governments
are founded on the free Representative principle.
Such is the in Mexico. 1t is interest also
TO preserve the relations OF peace and smi'y with
Mexico. which would be utterly dsregarded BY the
afording aid or countenance 10 her citizens in
arms against her. ard only in the mselves,
but actually ensting the savage tribes IN their pro
ects, 10 carry fire and sword into the peaceabe do
mains OF The Nation of which they have voluntarily
become citizens Nat Intel
The subject Of Masonry seems 20 be warmly de-
bated through bout the Mexican Republic. The pa.
pers Of the last Of December contain the answer Of
the acting Secretary of State to resolution Of the
Senate, asking information "upon the existence Of
Masonic Lodges. their number, denominations. OBJ
