We are presented here now with what appears to
be an anomaly in national affairs. Texas is consi
dered part OF the Union, and yet we have at this
time Mr.. Lee, as Charge d'Afiaires, from Texas,
near this government How is this! Can Texas
be an independent government, and part OF the
conederacy at the time, and Is not the present
position of Mexico to Texas, actual war against the
United States, without the necessity OF declara-
ton Z Or is the issue upon the question, TO whom
does Texas belong--to the United States or to Mex
ico, In short. is Texas annexed or not! Is, or
Is not. the annexation virtually complete without
the further ratification OF Congress- when Congress
has in acvance confirmed II .!


You will have observed late letter from Ten
nesseee in the Union, recommending Sam Hous-


ton TO the democracy because OF his popularity with
the masses Now this simply means, we take IT,
that unless the democracy take care OF Houston, he
will not hesitate TO fall into the ranks OF the wings
Father Richie, in his tacit endorsement OF this
trucking letter, has fairly impeached the veracty OF
ton through the Herald, or else the editor OF the
something TO be purchased by the democracy, even
al the expense of all the principles of common hon
esty and personal morality of character. We are
not taking the side of Dr. Archer in this matter =
We are simply discussing question OF party morals,
and of personal veraclty. We know not what course
DR. Archer may pursue in this business, out IL ne
suffers il 10 pass over in silence we are mistaken In
The man We incline TO think that Mr.. kitchie and
and Gen Houston will hear from the Doctor again


Mr. TYLER informs us that we dlned at this house
81 persons to-day. Very good tor the season.
