With Texas We are in great feather. This Is our
dependent nation. Like Minerva from the head Of
Jove, Texas sprung from the United States ~ one
bound, armed and equipped according to law. Sx
years have hardly expired since she thought Of de-
caring her independence, and she is already iresh
and vigorous republic Of nearly million OF chivai
ric spirits-with some beautiful enterprsing wo-
men among them, but not many as can supply the
demand, or keep up the breed She has be-" % ssSIs
and Is ready, both by and land, To give Mexico
one Of the most decided lickinss she has received
since the days of Cortex. IL istruc many valuable
citizens ol the republic, such az suo-treasurers,
murderers, seducers, forgers, and fnanciers leave
this country aRd swell the tide OF heroes, braves,
and chivalrc spirits that are now moving towards
the mines OF Mexicofor they have the true instinct
for tho specie vaults-but fortunately for the cha.
racter and reputation Of the country, the revenue
still unplundered in possession OF the kitchen cab
net and the specie still unstolen in ths vaults OF the
banks, will retain sufficient number OF these valua-
BILE breeds at home to and continue the race
te all future time.


Our relations with all the other foreign govern
ments remain pretty much in the same condition as
they did last year.


Before upon another branch Of public affairs,
cannot omit glance at the Florida war subject
which has created great deal o observation during
the lastyea Let me tell you, therefore, that the
Florida is like the tree Of knowledge, of good
and evil which the Lord planted in Paradise to try
mortals-but unlike that celebrated tree, which has

ought to consider Florida appendage to the
West Point aud Tammany Hall academies-the first
for teaching military tactics-the other, political
tactics. BY good management and economy. the go

can do a large business in talking on very small

valuable proceedings since your first meeting, early
this month up to this day. The system now in full
force is quite sub-treasury enough. Any other sys-

Tbss eii%ins and in the psnsniay are
only modes OF dsplayn financial talents, and
Of true democratic principles. IT. according to the
constitution, all men are born equal, Why in Gods
name are not all their actions also equal-equal in
merit equal in honor, equal in every point. These
distinctions between man and man, and between vr-
tue and vice-or between honesty and fraud, or be-
tween integrity and defaleation-are aristocratic,
feudal monarchcal, and entirely opposed to the de-
mocratic equality taught at Tammany Hall. The
| recent suspension OF the banks in Philadelphia is q
pregnant example OF the truth Of this principle They
suspended specie payments in order to "relieve
oppressed community"-that s to say, the directors
agreed to cheat the public at large, order to
themselves from the consequence OF their 70 ly.
This is the trne principle Of moral equality, because
il applies t. the kitchen cabinet and to the United
States Bank with equal force and pungency.
1t is true the surplus revenue and the nego-
