Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald


GALVESTON, Texas, March A, I845.


DEAR SIR I'VE have all, In this section of coun-
try, been looking with considerable anxiety for
your journal, TO see what opinion you may have
formed relative TO the recent discontinue OF the
Warwick OF the Democracy" as he is termed
here, God save the mark, but it appears that you
have not either deemed 1t necessary 10 exPend your
shot on him, or, that.beiDg without the proper IN
formation, you did not think II advisable to hazard
conjecture.


The advent of Duff Green, in this country, was
peculiarly auspcous His arrival was heralded IN

shrewdly conjecured, was written by himself He

zion of all kinds Infringing, at the same time, the
correspondence between Shannon and Rejon,-

Mr. Shannon immortality by writing the diplo-

Senate, whch!frs put him on his guard with regard
TO the designs at Britain on Texas and abolition,-
and, IN short. he very meekly, by "insinuaton,"
claimed to have set the annexation ball in motion;
which, too, was 10 make Texas great, Polk, Presl-
dent, and he, Duff Green, marvellous On his arri-

should be changed ,-proved it by certain funda-
mental principles the glst of which was that they,
il adopted, would throw the North into fever for
annexation throw MIR. Polk into the hands of Mr.
Calhoun, and finally, make him, c., President
All these dolngs, l. now appears, was only prellml
nary to his grand debut, which came of shortly
after, as follows:-He proposedto DR.. Jones, Presi
dent, to sign or recommend bill for frontier
protection, which was 10 be done, without cost
TO Texas, as follows: General Green and his as
sociates were to be incorporated into company

privilege OF Inducing some 60 600 Northern Indians
to migrate to Texas to be placed under the control

The President, being reasonable man, gently OBJ

side OF the RIO, and perhaps said So The General
quite as politely lnslnuated to him. that if he did
not slen such bill when passed, that he would
make his seat anything other than one OF roses-in
fact,, that he would revoluonize the country. The
result was that he was ordered out of presence,
and proclaimed as you have seen. So ended the
matter


The General, however, is not satisfed-he has
sworn the oath of allegiance, and sworn Likewise
that he would be In the next Congress, &C. To this
end he has taken up his domicil in one of our de-
populated counties, gone into mercantile busl-

whereabouts, and what he is at.


There IS no news here. The people are opposed
to the bill OF annexation, and the opposition is gain

our public debt, &c, would be accepted almost
unanimously, but they do not like this mongre an
