 There has been along hiatus in our Texan news. Our latest Galveston dates were to the 24th of August. The sloop Cutter, Cap tain Amos, arrived from Galveston yesterday with papers to the Eth ut. She had long and arduos passage, being twenty-seven days out but that she fell in with other yessles which supplied her with water, her crew would have suffered severely for the loss of that indispensable article of physical use. The steamship Republic, four days from Gal weston, is, we understand, in the river. She will bring the Texas news to as late date as due. In that of the Cutter there is little. We learn verbally that Anson Jones. the Huston candidate, is elected President of the Republic and that the Court Martial on Commodore Moore had terminated it's proceedings, it's judgment we did not here.

 sWhen belligerents, evenm the most angry excitement of feelings, are arrayed against each other, 1t Is but proper that their chief tains shonld preserve towards each other that comity which might render each other ap- proachable, and hereby avert human suffering and the ehuson of human blood.-Whe war rages, all ranks and conditions are sub feet to it's agitations and calamitles. Texas has already endured the extrcmest agony, and will endeavor to profit by her experience Against her you have again denounced war We await the event.
