 The National Gazette of Tuesday contains extracts from an official paper in relation to Texas, written by Don Lat- cas .4lamaa, the Mexican Secretary of State and submitted to the Mexican Congress in Secret Session. lis object appears to be to excite the appfehen- sloHs of that government in relation te the views of our government concerning that province. To that end tue most exaggerated misrepresentations Of facts and absolute inventions of falsities are boldly asserted, ,and plans recommended to counteract our intended movements of ambition and intrigue. Tie sab= stance of his accusation against the U. States, Is the same as that contained in the Mexican newspaper El Sol which we published few weeks ago. They are nearly as follows, so far as we. can gather them from the extracts published n the Philadelphia paper. He accuses Us of sending emissaries to that country who commence their schemes of revolu- ton, "bY introducing themselves into the territory, oa Pretepce of commercial negotiations, or of the establishment oi colonies, with or without the assent of the Government to which 1t belongs These colonies grow, multiply, become the predominantparty in Appropriation; and soon as a support is found in this manner, the intruders beein to set LID rights which it is impossible to sustain in serious discussion, and to bring for ward ridiculous pretensions, founded upon historical facts that are admitted by nobody, availing themselves general ", for the purpose of some critical cen- junction to which they suppose that the attention of the Mexican Government must be directed. They then excite. i by degrees, movements which disturb the political state of the country in dis plsstee; pste and and then follow disoofitents and dissatisfaction calculated to fatigue the patience of the ligitti eHse, and tto diminish the usefulness of the adminis- tration.''

 We are farther accused by D. Lucas of printing and circulating hand-biiIs in that territory to farther our nedltated project ofconquest. When things have come to this ti pass, says Don Lucas, di- plornatic management commences. The inquietude excited in the territory in dispute, the interests of the colonists therein established, the insurreetions oi adventurers and sayages instigated by the North American intruders, and the pertinacity with which the opinion is set

 up as to their right of possession, he. como the subjects ofnotes full of expres- sions of justice and moderation, until with the aid of other incidents which are never wanting in the course of di-

 plomatic relations, the desired end is attained of concluding an arrangement. as oncrous for one party as it is advaf,- tageous to the other. Sometimes more direct means are resorted to, and taking Iadvantage of the enfeebled state or do mestic difficulties ofthe possessor of the soil, they proceed upon the most extra ordinary preteYts to make themselves

 master of the country. as was the case in the Floridas, leaving the question to be l decided afterwards as to the legaiitvo oi ] the possession which force alone could
