 The general circular is a follows:

 The undersigned, Minister of Foreign Relations, has lhe honor n transmit to his Excellrncy, the Min isier of -, the follow ing eircular being npelled employ this means of transmitting to his [yourl Government, in ihis nuie, the solemn and formal pro- test of the Mexican Republic, suggested by an act which, woundng 10 the last degree the righis and honor of Mexico, is equally destructive to the unver sal principles Oi justice, to the respect due fee and inte gent nations, and the good fah which civiliza- tion has fixed the basis of intercourse tin,ernaciun..l polica 1 His Exceency, Senor -, will understand that inc undersigned has refe, euce to the law passed by the Congress of the United States and saDct,oied by the Executive, for the xation of the Department of Texas to the American Union.

 To present, in all it's deforniiy, this act of the Congress and Government of the United States, the alarming consequences of it's conduct towards the Mexican Republic, would be useless labor, mas much as this note Is addressed To the representative of A nation as illustrious as il is powerful, which, sustaining nObly the rank u occupies in the wu Id, respects the laws Of comiiy (buena amisad between foreign nations, and founds it's glory upon the immu table titles of morality ahd justice. The Govern inent of the undersigned has occasion to exhibit all the grounds upon winch it relies for ls resistance of this measure of annexation, they 0bvio and known 10 all, and the feeling excited among friendly nations, aud even those winch have no of- cial relations with Mexico, will be profound upon learning of measure so injurIo and offensive te Mexico, and so utterly unworthy the honor Ibuen non,bre ot the United States.

 But the undersigned will take occasion to observe to his Excellency, Senor -, that the American Government having been the first 10 acknowl ledge the independence of the ReI ublc oi Mexico. show ing itself zealous partisan of liberty, has been the only which has endeavored to usurp portion of her territory. He would also add, that, as il appears from recent declarations, the deslgns of he United States have been old the friendship which il sought 10 confrm-first, by treaty of aniiy, 1 and by another for the adjustment of boundaries which has now been completely violated. In aiding l Texas heI sell from the Republic, the United States wanting in good iallh; but in aiding to incorporate Texas with the American Confederation, and declaring that ihis has been her policy for twe.iy years, she has pursued which has no pural- el in the history of civilized nations. Mexico, to avoid differences which for the most | part had no foundation m jnstce las against herJ has submitted serious compromises; she has over oked provocations and injuries. and has preserved her loyalty with such fidelity to give her more rlght-i the righ, she possesses Can be increased- to speak out and protest as the undersigned now does against the anne xation of Texas to the United | States, and against all its consequences. The Mex can Republic will employ in opposition to this mea. | sure, her power and her resources and trusting in the justice of her cause, does fear to g,ve assur anUe, that whatever may be the result, she will pre- fend in the very grave matter under consideration.

 With this view. the undersigned requests his Ex- | celency, S.nor -, to give this protest its proper direction, and the time accept the assur ance of his most distinguished consideration. |
