TremendOus Excitement In Texas ana
Mexico, &c. &c.


We received by this mornings mail some verv


important dispatches from Texas down to 10Th
ult., inclusive.


The greatest excitement has been Produced
throughout Texas by the arrival Of General Duff
Green, al Galveston, from Vera Cruz, with the


important intelligence that the affairs between this
country and Mexico had reached a crises, and


that revolution had broken in the latter republic.
We give, connected with this, the intelligence as


and undoubtedly emenating from Duff himself


Every word Of it is important in the present pos


ture of affairs.


We also give sort OF proclamation of Anson


of Texas, which we find ia the Vimdicasor, the
organ of the administration. In this it is seen


that the government Of Texas boldly declare
that unless the annexation project succeeds
or the independence of Texas acknowledged by
Mexico through the mediation of some third
person Texas will at once open the ,car upon
Merico and not stop short of the conquest of the
phole Of Ne,c Merico to the Pacific Ocean.
II appears by all this that state of affairs be-
tween Mexico, Texas, and the United States, and
perchance England, has become critical. and no
one can tell what day may bring forth.

Many entertained fears of their being captured by
Uncle Sam. q


An abridgement of the most important intel-
gence from Mexico, which follows, has been
furnished us from the pen OF Gen. Duff Green.
Governor Shannon under instructions from his
government, on the l4th CT October, addressed an
able note to the Minister of Foreign Relations &C.
protesting against the renewal OF the war against
Texas pending the question of annexation; and
pecially against the manner IN which Il was propos
ed-as by the proclamation of Gen Woll, Of Nov.
last, to carry on that war.


reply charged the government OF the United States,


and the people Of the Southern states, with having
first induced citizens OF the United States TO emf
crate, with view that, having become citizens OF
Texas, they might revolt againsr Mexico, and be-
come an independent government, that they might
thereby contract treaties and annex themselves to


and @ southern people had treated Mexico with iaIse
hood and bad faith, and that the purpose
was to obtain possession OF Texas by intrigue.

croachments the Mexican territory and thst the


sponsibty rests with the and southern peo


pie the United States have by their bad faith and


iisoy conduct made necessary for Mexico to wage
the war in that manner
| To this note, Mr. Shannon replied that he could
| hold no communication with the Government of
| Mexico, that not respectful to himself and to
l


that the note in question contained unjust charges
and unfounded imputations against the Govern
ment and people of the United States, conveyed in
language so offensive that he could not reply to
| 'hem aud that he therefore demanded that it
should be withdrawn


To this Mr. Rijon rejoined, that the charges
i against the Government of President Tyler, and
the southern people of the United States were true
that Mr.. Shannon did not reply because he could
/ not conrovert the facts, that the Government of


Mexico relied upon the majority in the American


Senate and upon the people of the northern States,
| and especially upon such men as Messrs. Adams
and Clay and that so lar from Withdrawing the
| previous note, the only regret of the Mexican Go


vernment was, that they had not time to ampfy
| on the charges already made.


| To this, Mr.. Shannon replied, by notifying Mr.


Rijon, that his notes would be referred to his


government for further instructions, and that unit


these instructions were received all fuIther official
intercourse with the Mexican government would
be suspended, unless both notes were withdrawn


Mr.. Shannon also takes occasion to say, that he
| knows too well what Is due. to the character of
| ais own government, to make any reply 10 the


charges contained Mr. Rijon's note, for the pur-


pose OF vindicating the people and government OF
| the United States; but that, inasmuch as the pub-
ca.ion OF these notes by Mexico, and the comments


Of the official newspapers thereon, show that they


were written and published for the purpose of crea-


ting prejudice in the minds Of the Mexican people,


against the United States, and inasmuch as Mr..
Rljon had assumed that he did not reply, because


he could not controver the facts, OF while the false


charges and unjust imputations were borne. he


would reply, not for the purpose of vindicaDg the
Government and people OF the. United States, but
that the Government and people of Mexico, might


bevdisabused, and made responsible Tor the calunl-
nies contained In Mr.. Rijons notes, in case they
adopt and justify the same.


He then proceeds to answer the charges made
by Mr.. Rijon, showing that the emlgrans To Texas


Who declared their Independence, ,and conquered


at San Jacinto came under the special invitations
from the governments OF Spain, oi Mexico, and Of


The state Of Coahuala and Texas and that the 60


vcrnment and people of the United States had no
3geAcy whatever in giving those invitations. He


hen briefly reviewed the progress of events in


Mexico and in Texas, proving that the declaration
| Of Independence was the consequence Of the sub


version Of the Constitution Of 1924, and OF the at
tempt oi Gen. Santa Anna 10 establish military


5espotism on its ruins Vindicating the honor and


character of the government and pc dPle Of the
