If it was true, and we do not beliovo thut tho President thinks it is, that some other ceuu jy would stop in and take the little Ponin sula under its protection, would it Imi Mifliciont r»> for him to involve his country in the expense of war lo prevent it ?

If there is, in all Europe, u more contemp tible sud worthless government than the inilitnry des potism of Mexico, we candidly oenftMM that we arc now unnbln to recur to it.

'File lio succeeded. The niiuexatiou was consummated. Now let us eui|uire, what wus the truth in that evor-to-bo- regrcUed affair I ll haa been but a abort time shtoe, that the actora most proininont in the Texns matter made |Hil4ic claim to the honors of the deed. Tyler made his showing, and Senator llou*ton replied to him. What said Houston I That England never dreamed of taking Texas; that he had palmotl this tale on Tyler, knowing him to be rather soft iu the upper story, in order to urge him on ; and that the whole tale of British interference was a sheer fabrication, to ini|KMc on Ihe credulity of a weak President, nnd alarm the fears of a jealous peo|iiv. Houston knew st firat that his statements were false, and when it was necessary to meet hie antagonist, he came out, and contrary to all expectation, acknowledged the truth. There was no British interference, and lloiiHton knew it then, and every body else knows it now. For ourselves we do not desire any foreign nation to slip in and possess the Htate of Y ucatan But rather than see our fellow-citizens carried there to die beneath the hunting sun, to perish by pestilence, or sink under the murderous weapons of au enemy that we should have nothing to do with, we would be willing to see the earthquake swallow the whole concern—Indians and Spaniards—iu one promiscuous ruin. Whenover it ie eutlled that this country is to go fonh lo fight the battles of every little worthier clau that are uuable to protect themselves, the days of the Republic are num bered.

Gen. Price, it has pursued the same courso, not regarding his command as at nil subject to tho orders of Butler. An account of the buttle of Santa Crux de llnea- le* between 400 Americans and about 2000 Mexicans, the Americans under Price, and tho Mexicans tinder j Trias, is given ut length in the Orleaus pupont, tho pur- j ticulursof which wo cun only find room for.

Trias was iu a strongly fortified town and resisted, for one entire day, the terriMc as- j Hiiults of our forces.
