IMPORTANT FROM TEXAS! ANNEXATION SETTLED
“Both houses of the Texas Congress have declared unanimously for the annexation. “It is said that the prospect of the annexation of Texas has raised the price of slaves from 30 to 50 per ct;, and the effect of this is a most powerful stimulus to the slave trade, and to the breeding of slaves for sale.” (From the N.Y. Express)
