pz.,,. 7 ..n, c----l-r Al a
United States, says the Houston Telegraph, have
suggested that the public lands Of Texas should
u, the earliest period practicable be ceded 10 the
United States and as consideration for this ces.
sion the United States should assume the payment
of the public debt Of Texas. This arrangement
would doubtless be extremely agreeable 10 the
brokers, who, taking advantage Of the necessities
of the unfortunate soldiers OF Texas, purchased
their Texas money at eight or ten cents on The dol
lar; but we doubt whether the Government of tho
United States or that Of Texas would be doing
Justice to the truly meritorious creditors of Texas
by this arrangement.


The editor then goes into long argument to

ment few miles below Bastrop about two months
since, were lately brought to Torrey's Trading.
house by a party Of Cumanches. They we're in.
recognized by some persons at the Trad.
ing. house. The Cumanches admitted that they
had stolen them from the Colorado. When they
we're reproached for violating the treaty. they de.
MED that they had made treaty with the people

leagues from this place. Lieut.. Steele had orders

On the same day, the 7th, Corpus Christi was
visited by small party of Indians of The Tonkewa
warriors and IL squaws. They came
from the banks Of tho St. Marks, and brought with
hem few bear and buck.skins for traffic. OF
III the specimens Of savage life, says the editor Of
he Gazette, it has been our fortune 10 see, these
ronkewas are the most unprepossessing. The
lescipIes of Lavaler, Gaul and Spurzhem would

most prominent are acquisitirsness and pho.eatiu.
