Ters by the refusal of reannexation. Whatever the result may be, no true friend of the Union can de sire to subject it to such hazards; and this'alone ought to be a conclusive ar ament in favour of the reannexation of' Texas. Ne of three results is certain to follow from the refusal of reannexation. Lst. The separation of the South and Southwest from the North, and their reunion with Texas. Or, 2d. The total overthrow of the tariff. Or, 3d! A system of unbounded smuggling through Texas into the West, and Southwest. Accompanying the last result, would be a disregard of the laws, and an utter demoralization of the whole country, a practical repeal of thetariff, and loss of the reve nues which it supplies, and a necessary resort to direct taxation to support the government.
