We lay the following article before our'
readers?fur its interest, not from the
facts |.tproduces, but the speculations it
suggests". Why should wcT?orextend our
bcadaries to t)?r limits to which Mr. Jefferson
supposed they had gone, when he
acquired Louisian??The objection which
some of the Northern fanatics nave urged,
and which was taken by the Opposition in
the House of Commons, will clearly not
h&ld water?because its annexation to the
United Steles, ill not multiply the nam'*

empty some of. those' who are already in
the United States, into this new Territory?whereas,
if Texas be independent^
she wHI have full power to act for herself,
and will import further slaves from Cuba
or Africa.
The acquisition of Texas, is probably
?a leather to be referred for Gen. Jackson's
Cap. The Mew Orleans Standard asked,
on the 10;h of October, whether. "It
would not be well for the United States,
for Texas and Mexico, that the ,5rst should,
actus arbiter between the other two, by
purchasing Texas, and securing her independence?
The Mexican government is

'The p<u>p1o of the Southern alavo ,
x
States have also a strong motive for 4H alliance
with Texas, indepjfodently of any
political, conaide|gjuoiia. , Texas is toe
greatest cotton region in Ike worJJ. It it
not only more fertile of eottoa than the
Southern Slates, bulit produces a better
article. "There is lapd enough its Texas to
enable it to supply tine world with this great
staple, to lite exclusion of he Southern
Stale* from die market, hot the labor is j
wauling. None but slave labor can, be]
used in- (he cnlturo of cotton. Now; if"
Texas becomes independent, she may sup-1
ply herself with, slave* from Cob*, and
speedily enter into competition with our]
Slates in (he production of cotton, at once J
depreciating the value ot ??nr slaves, our
cotton lands, and our cotton. The South
would never, therefore, assent to therecognition
of Tcxian independence, but
with the understanding that the country
shall bo annexed to the United Stales, and
made subject to our law* in respect to the
importation of slaves. The price of col*
ton will then be maintained, and the ralue
of slave labor enhanced ; because the
number of slaves can only be increased
by the means of their natural increase,
on whatever side of the Sabine they may
ultimately be concentrated. ,
''There can be little doubt, therefore,
in teres led as *11 parties and sections are
in the measure, thai the independence of
Texas will be speedily acknowledged by

any unnecessary delay, be admitted
