 We are informed that the inhabitants of that portion of this Territory south of Red River, have in fact separated from the Gov e.nment of Arkansas and of the U. States, and arc taking measures to incorporate then- selves with Texas. Judge ELLIS, JAMES CLARK, Esq. and NIT CARSON Qate of N. Car plinah are among the Delegates to the Tcxi- an Convention. We are sorry for it--for we look upon it as a most rash and unadyised step. Texas is at present in state of anarchy.- She cannot be aided by the United States, ,un- less in violation of solemn treaties. If she become independent, she must either be att tached to the United States, or become one of those lttfe petty independencies without either means, national standing, dignity or power, never any thing more than nests of pirates. If her citizens have any hopes of ultimate prosperity and happiness, ,--those hopes are founded solely on ahe prospect of hereafter becoming part of these United States. The Republic of Texas, by itself,

 

 would be nothing among nations. Why then leave our great Republic, and become part of that which is no government '--and where their only hopes will rest on again obtaining what they are now throwing awayl

 

 'Tis too true. Walker is elected U. s. Senator from .Mssissippi and R.. c. Nicholas from Louisiana-both Van Buren men. If the United States Senate has majority for Van Buren, it will in truth open Pandora's Box upon tho country, and not even Hope will remain at the bottom of it..

 

 We sec 1t stated in an eastern papor, that there are at this time in the Pacific ocean, not far from two hundred ships, measuring about eighty thousand tons, whose crews consist ot twenty-fSe hundred men, and tho aggregate of their cargoes, ito say nothing of, the ships and their out6ts,) is at least 0,0O0 barrels of sperm oil--worth at least six millions of dollars. All are ;som New England, and nearly half from New Bedford. A Wal. with France would sweep them by the board.

 

 There has been ss GLORIOUS vICTO- RYp of Van Burenism over Jacksonism, in Louisiana. Col Nicholas, d Van Buren man, was elected Senator over Mir Barrow, an ori- ginal Jackson man, pretarring Judge White for the Presidency. Un the third ballot, Col Nicholas received a majority of one vote ov- or all the candidates. and fivo votes over Mr Barrow.
