A QUESTION FOR THE ADVOCATES OF ANNEX
ATIoN.-The Law Reporter pertinen;ly asks:
In case Of The annexation Of Texas, what sf-
feet is to be given to that provision in the cOR-
stitution relating to 'fugiIives frem justice!'
In mercy to that large-elass ofmen whO have
gene to Texas in ahurry, during the last ten
years, it wsuld seem in accordance with the
spirit Of the whole proceedings in the prem
isOs, J thatsOme clause should have been inser-
ted in the treaty for their protection; othOr-
wise, a consid portion of the newly-ac-
quired territory might have been dePOpulatsd, +,
as soen as the broad shield Of the constitution
was extended over it. If the various States,
after annexation, may make rsquisitions uPOR
the "GOvernOr OF Texas for all who have
fed from justice, there might be great aston
ishment and alarm throughout q country for
which eur government has expressed 90 much
sympathy. We are net sure that a grand
dignatiOn meeting would not be called, Ox-
tending from the Sabine to the RiO del Norte.
