Ma, J. Hamiitos: My Dean Sis, tannic Mujesty, placed in my hands in due time, your letter of the 13h of last January, which had reached him by the steamer Forth, and | at preseat acknow- | ledge its receipts alter the delay required by the grave ron which it treats. letter written thout previous acquaintance her official or personal, by a man whose mp him an euemy of my country, could prise me; and the more so, from ihe want of tact and delicacy with which certain propositions addressed to one who knows how much is due to bi eminent position, and to his own dignity and honor. | You have placed me, sir, under the necessity of being | very explicit and severe, because [ cannot consent that you and the partizans of your cause, should deceive themselves concerning the fiaal resolution of Mcxico in the question of Texas, nor can I omit the expression of the profound disgust which you have excited in me, by, 80 rndely coming forward, to propose to me the sale of Texas, and the acquisition of an intamy. “You ‘commence by acknowledging yourself a citi- zen of the United States, and at the same time ogent of ‘Texas, for the recognition of its independe European powers, and for the well known nate negotiations for loans. [do not conc can preserve the title of citizen of a nation at peace, har- mony and friendship with Mexico, while at the same time, you endeavor to do her all the harm in your power, and to cut off from her a partoi her tersitory, by means which you have employed with euch singular act vity. This species of impudence with which yoa represent yourself asa citizen ef the United Stetes, excites vivid recollections that your country men first comminced the war ; introduced disorder into Texas and still maintain it, in scandalous violation of the treaties which should, in good faith, unite the two nations. But leaving this examination to the criticism of the civilized world, which is ignorant seither of the origin, nor the tenden- cies of the usurpation of fexos, 1 will quickly show you, that you are mistaken, and that too, greatly, in sup posing Mexico deficient either in thestrength orthe will to maintain her incontesibie rights. “We have fully weighed the actual and the possible value of the territory of Tex: vantage accruing to Mexico by retaining it in po n, and still more the precarious situation to which find Herself reJuced, were she to permit a colo within her own limits always ready to advance and covetous to ob- tain new acquisitions by the trite title of theft and usur- pation ; but even were the soil of 1'exas a mere desert Of sand, unproductive save of thorns to wound the fuot of the traveller, this plain useless, sterile and unprodue. | tive, should be defended with energy and constancy, under the conviction, that the possession of a right im- | yer upon a nation the necessity of never adandoviag < with shame and disgrace to her name. If you are ac- quainted with the statistics of Mexico, you cannot be ignorant of its population and its wealth; and if you | have read history,Jyou wil! remember that the race which now peoples the American continent, is the same, which on s0 many memorable occasions, has given sig nal proofsnot only of constaney, but even of obstinacy ! ia defence of their lands, their hearths aud their natioual individuality. “ Eleven years of a bloody and mortal strife, to con- quer,our independence, will serve perp ‘tually to prove that strong passions agitate our hearts, and nerve our arms in a great critis ; and this very prolonged series of civil wars, has formed here a popilation as warlike as they are patient, and eminently capable of action under allthe stimulants of glory, when controlled by a go vernment which respects itsel’, and enforces respect for the people, whose welfare is confided to it. You must clearly remember that in the beginning of 1936, Texas found herself sutjugated, and that only a freak of for. tune, the unexpected conduct of the general, who suc- ceeded, me in the command, withdrawing improperly the Mexican army, and other causes which, even at pre- | sent,appear incomprebensitle,aunulled the immense and definite results of the rapid succession of victories gi ed by this same army, under my orders and direction. Greater and more powerful efforts than those can still be made, and, sir, you must not doubt, that they will be made, for to the knowledge of my duties, I unite a con- sciousness ef the power and the resources at my control.
