The "WAsHINGToN UNION" AND TEXAS ANNExA-
ToN.-The Washington Union still chershes the
belief that annexation is quite certain and settled,
"a with the bond of fate" Every fresh develop
ment, however, tends to show the weakness of such
an opinion. The Union maintains that the Execu-
tive will give no opposition; but letter recently
published in the Prouidcnce Journal apparently
coming from an intelligent and trustworthy source,
confirms, IN the strongest terms, the opinion
we have so often insisted upon, that it was by no
means certain that the government of Texas was
friendly to the measure. This writer also states
that the European population, German, British anc
French, who were augmennng more rapidly than,h,
American, was decidedly opposed TO annexation
Altogether the prospects of annexation are yer,
much couded and every new development con
firms the accuracy of the views which we have
again and again expressed on the subject.
