DEAR SlR--Whether the Treaty for the Annexa-
ton of Texas TO this Union has or has not been sign
ed by the President, and Mr.. Van Zandt, Charge
d'Afiares for Texas, at this present writing, is a
matter known only to those two worthy functlcna-
res, and perhaps two others. But one thing is GER
tain, the Treaty which was begun by Mr. Upshur,
has been completed by Mr.. Nelson lwho though
merely pro tenn. has not let his modesty stand in
his way and the Senate expect it laid before
them by Robert Tyler tomorrow, Monday, the 18th
instant.


MANY say that it requires full Minister or Mi
mister Extraordnaire'' to sign such Treaty be-
fore it can be laid before the Senate but Senator
informs me that the Authorized signature Of Van
Zandt is sufficient. Atany rate General Henderson
is on his way here, from Texas, with full power 10
sign this Treaty for the Annexation OF Texas to the
United States and the statement OF the friends OF
Texas is that if the Senate refuse to ratify the
Treaty, Cen Hendersonis fully empowered 10 60 10
England, and make Treaty with that Government
for annexing Texas to Great Britain. This threat is
the rod which has been held in terr0rcm over the
heads of certain doubtful Senators.


You will doubtless many of vou complain little
that in New York &c, YOU have not had sufficient
notice O: this important movement. What is all
lIaJ 10 ME- NtitT w ne dill
bound to consult Both Wings and Loco Focos
are doing all they can to cut my throat, and now
viii use this Texas question two-edged sword
against the parties. and it will cut both wavs.
Language precisely similar in sentiment has been
used by him i'll relation 10 tins matter


However You need not complain; Tor YOU would
not have heard OF this now-nor before twas sent
TO the Senate, had not been that relative of the
President Il will not say sony could not keep his
mouth shut III the matter The President has
blamed The Chief Clerk of the State Department
for giving the information, but he has done so
| mean MIR. Derrick, who Chief Clerk of the
Diplomatic Bureau under Air. Forsyth. However
Iet that pass, the murder is out, and you have TO
make the best of it.


Your next question will be, can such Treaty re
ceve the sanction ofthe Senate that is, oa Consttu
tsnal majority OF that body? will tell you. Mr.
Walker, of Mississippi (the prime mover in this busi
ness, who has neglected. his other business in the Sc
nate frequently to attend to this matter, and who i
the smallest mental edition OF man, whose statur,
correctly portrays his nsignitcance except for mis-
chief has gone round and made an estimate on thi
point and sounded the Senators The result has beer
pronounced very positively as follows
