~ ioio"iuS oAHact from inc washington
correspondent of the N. Y. True Sun, places us
in possession of information which, if tive, evi,
IDENTIFY shows to great extent that American
pride and spirit is thing that once was, but now,
does not exist. We believe that if Gen. Jackson
was now at the helm Of ofGovernment, that he would
give Mr.. Packenham, the British Minister, !" a per.
nit 10 leave this country" ss s.
| Will politicians and editors now continue to
proclaim to the people that Great Britain does not
| care for Texas. Messrs. Gales & Seaton, on the
mere word of diplomatique, whose game everv
one should know, mover shows his hand to the
party that he sets down to play with, denied that
Great Britain had any views or designs upon
Texas. E ~
Oh no, Great Britain never coveted political or
geographical dominion n,-never. And the Nation
al lntelligencer, the organ of the British party in
the United States, was authorised to say that that
just and ambitious government had no views to
carry out respecting Texas. But when the
subject of the annexation of Texas became warm,
tie British Minister could not keep cool in his
seat and although it was not his game to :" show
his hand" he became alarmed for British policy,
and exposed his game.


Why did not this British Minister protest to our
Government, against the annexation of Texas
Because, he was afraid to measure lances with
Mr.. Calhoun the Secretary of State, who knew
the rights OF his country and dared to maintain
them; who would not crnge to British power, or
contribute to British policy. He would not sacri
hce American interests, rather than provoke the
British ire, as would Messrs. Clay and Van Bu.
rem. Fr -


The British Minister, preferred, (and thought it
was the most certain mode to succeed,) waiting
" upon most of the Wings and many of the De.
mocratic Senators for the purpose Of operating
upon, and inducing them to oppose the Treaty."


From the Nep York Sun


The British minister is exasperated to the las,
degree at the course of events on the subject
lie has waited on the South American Ministers
resident at Washington, and urged upon them the
danger of permitting such an event as annexation
to ia ae place, and proposes that diplomatic meet
ing OF their respective countries be held at Lima
to denounce annexation and its policy. They are
persuaded that it is the intention of the American
government to continue its accession Of territory
until 1t reaches the is;hmus of Darien. There is
a fine fu,er in the diplomatic array, and quite a
ruiiiing Of feathers among the game cocks of this
walk; we shall soon see the result. The BRITISH
Alta,ster has waUed upon most of the Wig and
maay Of the Democratic Senators for the purpose
OF operating upon and inducing them to oppose the
treaty. 1hIs is serious matter-a grave and
true charge which will be substa ntiated nd proves
that the politicians idea of British gold is no, all
dream. Apart from the gold there has been
,scandalous intrgnes agitatcd on this same annex
a'ion treaty, unknown till now in Washington, but
which are facts. placing our court upon the same
corrupt level with those Of Europe. We're it not

We learn by the Eaton, PrebIe county, Democrat,
