Mr. Webster against the annexation of Texas to tne
States. No official information has yet been gwen 10 ~
public that any treaty has been made. even any ne
tations going upon that sub and lIegret 10 sec
the opinions Of persons distinguished Mr. WeOs
thrown ont on the public mind, evidently with the we"
to create pEeiadees advance against such measure


have long had in my possession the letter OF anOG
distinguished citizen Of this country deeply depOLIs
1he original loss of Texasby negotiation, and c Tsn
advocating itsIestorationt to the United States he
fore have not thought proper in any respect
lsh that letter ;but am induced now to change ' @
determination, and to send you copy Of It was VIII &
ten by General Jackson than year ago. ana VIZ M
mo possible party purposes whatever. With GH as m
question of annexation rises infinitely above all m
party considerations Subsequent letters (some very
cent onesl which have seen, whilst they show .D
deepest anxiety felt by him for the success OF the me-
Eures yet treat throughout great national
identified with best interest of the whole coun!


Ia the same spirit of nationality, ask the puoiE
Of his opinions. that they may go out and stanG %
the country, side by side, with those of Mr. t,
General jackson discusses the subject in various |
view and especially in connection with the m rort
defence of this country. In this last respect ion al
admit that he is peculiarly competent for Its
sincerely hope that neither Mr. Websters nor @ d
Jacksons letter will be read with party bias
yerted to for party purposes .
