The news of the annexation OF Texas, by o,ir
Congress, was received here last Monday. 1.
passed the Senate by vote of 27 TO 25, every
Democrat and Wings voting for it. 1t was inn
mediatey sent to the House, where it passed by
vote of 1872 to 76: every Democrat but 2, and
Whig voted for it. Thus has tho Democratic
party accomplished this great measure for our
country.


Our citizens here received the news with that
delight and enthusiasm which characterized the
hard struggle in its behalf during the past year.
A salute of 27 guns proc lamed our triumph, and
the lonfrrs which blazed in OUR streets, bore evil
dence of the illumination Of our spirits.


The 27 cartridges were named after the 81
States including Texas; bit one of them burstcd
in the box, which all proclaimed TO be Massachu-
sctts, who has threatened 10 dissolve the Union
rather than admit Texas.


Every device has been resorted 10 by the Wings
to defeat lhe annexaton of Texas, even cravenly
appeals to fear and cowardice threatening us with
war; as a consequence of annexation. But we
have trnmphcd over all their arts and sho1vn them
and the world, that the American people can and
will pursue their rights and interests, without re:
gard to threats of enemies at home or abroad.
Aud the same spirit which roW welcomes Texas


into our fraternity will cherish and defend her.
