Texas

The annexation of Texas is öalling forth a degree of interest, especially in the South, towhich it bas not before attained. We know not whether we have noticed Daniel Webster's recent letter against it. The National Intelligencer strongly opposes it, while the Tribune and other whig papers say that the dan. ger is all past. At the Soulh every prominent statesman of both parties, so far as we recollect, are decidedly in favor of annexation, except Col. Benton, who ostensibly opposes it for certain political purposés. Mr. Clay, when Secretary of State under Mr. Adams, it is said, tried to buy Texas for a mili ion of dollars, but is now silent concerning it, although he has been repeatedly asked to express his views. President Tyler and othersthin-k that a spirit of enthusiasm on this subject is rising in the South, which wil] do away with all party distinctions, and carry the mensure triumphantly through. Should the South be unanimous in its favor,- the danger of annexation will be imminent, because twenty-seven Senators are a quorum for business, and two thirds, or eighteen, can consummate the treaty.
