** 3 - the cause of Texas, as herethefore has done it can never sue- ^ ceed here to get Sufficient Subscribers to maintain it. The cause of Texas is materially attacking the interest of the largest part of our Mercantile Community, and every body con- nected with the propaganda of Texian principles, in this place is looked upon as opposed to the Interests of our Merchants, consequently a paper sustaining, as the Correo. does the cause of Texas, and opposing every thing that is in connection with Mexico, can not expect a public support. You will see that the Bee and Bulletin papers which are reputed to be the frieads of Texas have always in cases, like the trial of the Crew of the Invincible, the granting of Tetters of Marque, and ultimate- ly the Blockade of Hatamoros, taken sides against Texas, while the CcGreo alone has defended the principle* of Texas Sove- reignity. Make haste and give us help. %George Fisher. (Addressed) pr Col. Fannin. Genl. S. F. Austin. Texas Care of Mesr: McKinney and Williams Quintana Texas
