l.pj.jon of the constitutional validity of tlic
Krnsolnnt Laics. Tho subject was dis-

kvent laws, purporting to discharge tho con
tact, aro void, and inoporativo in all courts,
b noli whon applied to contracts entered into
fccr the passage of such laws, as to those en-
Icrtd into before their passage; that tho four
ther judges aro of opinion that such laws, when
i applied, aro not null and void to all intents

** 0ur Country ....Our whole Country."
The War Bulletin, recently promulgated
by Governor Troup, has excited feelings of
indignation in all parts of tho state. Many
who have hitherto warmly supported him,
“ through thick and- thin,” and appeared to be
disposed to “go tiio whole amount” for him,
stop suddenly short, at this juncture, and will
follow him no further. As much as they are
opposedMo the President,-they aro in favor of
tho Union—and with all their friendship for
the Governor, they will not assist him in break
ing down tho bulwark of our liberties. The
patriotic yeomanry of this state will hover
countenance one who can calmly and deliber
ately talk of severing the Union—one who would
light tile torch of civil war in our borders, and
demolish tho fair fabric of our institutions,
reared by tho patriotism and cemented by the
blood of our fathers. 4
Tho Governor himself must begin to feel
sensible of the disgust of his constituents at
this defiance of tho authorities of his country,
and probably was so, when ho drew up his long
letter, to enlighten his friends at Washington,
and published it to conciliate those at home.
Tho display of fine feelings in that letter, his
boasted regard for tho uiiioh of tho states, and
pretended dcsise for peace and harmony be
tween this state and the United States, do not
accord with his previous declarations, and
should bo received with extreme caution. We
consider it all of a piece with his preachment,
on another occasion, about “ tho sermon on the
mount,” “religious toleration,” “uniiod .in the
faith,” &c.—and made use of as a cloak of hy
pocrisy—a more device, to catch the applauso
of the groundlings. In these cases, actions
spoak louder titan words. Morality, preached
by one whose whole life is a libel upon his doc
trine—and professions of patriotism, from him
who would fire tho fane of Liberty and del
uge his country in the blood of ber children—
become blasphemy.

ehes, as being more convenient to the practice' of a
dissolute life and tbp disposal of plunder. A system
of despoliation was effected, so extensive, not only on
the inhabitants of the provincebut also on the ettfaens
ot western Louisiana, that Governor Johnston about
tivo years ago besought General Bernardo, who had
lately obtained the command of Texas, to use his ex*
ertions in arresting the excesses; and an appeal to a
better man could not have been made; hot troops and
authority from the supreme'government at Mexico
were necessary. Both were at T ~ —*■ *

to plunder when and where they pleased, while it gave
to the lawless whites an ostensible livelihood, orders
were issucd.interdicting all intercourse in the way of
traffic with that tribe. 'The enforcement of the inhibi
tion, it was perceived, would give efficiency to justice,
by destroying the power of the savages, increasing the
number of orderly settlers in the eastern section, and
consequently rendering the apprehension of criminals
easy, and their puuishmenjcertain. But one alterna

oppose the Mexicans. Their assjstancewas promised;

legs, counterfeiters, thieves and cutthroats who have
abjured every virtue and tire abhorrent'even to hu-
inanity. It was the interest of tbe tCa'mancheos to
sustain their allies, and no doubt can be entertained as
to their will; but as they live exclusively by the chase,
following the bison from north to'south and from south
tojiorth, and as these animals have of late seldom ap
proached the settlements and only in small numbers, it
is probable, that the scarcity of provisions on which to
subsist a large body of warriors, lias deterred the red
Frtdoninru from attempting any effectual diversion in
favor of their white brethren. The expulsion of mih
republicans from Texas will he an auspicious epoch
to that country and to Louisiana: though the latter
is likely before long to be at the expense of maintain

them to execution, unless fortuitous events should oc
casion disturbances in the government of Mexico, and
enable them to return nnd resume their former nefa

that ihcro was a royal commissioner resident

that ho had enlisted a powerful party, and. that
all tho necessary funds tvero provided. -Tho

friar exclaimed; “Gentlemen, J,am -betrayed;
