Texan INDEPENDENCE.

Tuesday, Feb. 2l.-The House rcsum-
ed the consideration of the following res.
oluton reported on Saturday by Mr.. How
ard, from the committee on Foreign Al
fairs.
Resolved, that the independence of the
government Of Texas ought to be ac-
knowledged by the United States.
Resolved that the Committee of Ways
and Means be instructed to report a pro-
vision for the appropriation of an outfit
and salary of such diplomatic Agent as
the President may see fit to send to Texas.
After some discussion motion TO lay
on the table was agreed to, LOG to 80.
THE Washington correspondent of the
Journal of Commerce says, The House
has given the go.by to the Texan indie
Pendence question for the present session.
But it is evident that there wss a ma ori-
ty in favor of the measure. 1t was ap-
pretended that ifthe subject was taken up,
1t would give rise to discussion that
would consume the brief remaining time
of the House, to the utter exclusion of all
other business, and even of the appropria
ton bills. 1t was also supposed that the
matter could, if it should be necessary, b.
arranged as we'll by the treaty-making
power

he would say to all whom it may concern,
that students from abroad may have a
room and board themselves. Some are
now doing it at an expense less than ono
dollar per week. The rent of rooms will
vary IN proportion 10 their goodness and
locality. A small tenement can be hired
for a company Of eight or ten. II pro-.
visions are brought from home, the ex-

Rumored negotiation Oettoeen the United
States government and Santa Anna.
The Washington correspondent Of the
Journal of Commerce, under date of the
Goth inst, says, "A rumor, important If
true is in circulation here today. A
treaty is said to have been concluded with
Gen. Santa Anna, as President Of Mexico,
while he was here, for the recognition of
the Independence of Texas, and the ces-
sion Of that territory, with the assent OF
Texas, to the United States, upon certain
conditions. Upon making some inquiry,
have ascertained from an authentic
source that rumor represents facts for this
time; and that the following are the terms
of the treaty: The independence of Texas
is to be &C knowlndged, both by the Unit
ed States and by Mexico. The boundary
between the United States and Mexico is
to be the Rio del Norte. The United
States on their part assume the payment
of the claims of our citizens upon Mexico
estimated at two millions They also pay
Mexico the sum Of three millions; and
thirdly, they agree to allow grants Of
land ia Texas, made by Mexico, in all
cases where the conditions of said grants
have been complied with; and to make a
pro rata allowance to such grantees as
have, in part, complied with said condi
tons Texas is of course party to the
whole arrangement. If Santa Anna sue
ceeds in resuming his power in Mexico
this treaty will be carried into effect
The Senate will be con vened for the spe
cial purpose of having this treaty submit.

ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO AssAssINATE
LOUIS PH1L1PPE.-This being the day
fixed for the opening of the Legislative
Chambers, the usual preparations were
made for his Majesty's progress to the
Palais Bourbon. Bodies Of military were
in attendance, as on former occasions; -
but the severity of the weather was such
that the ordinary crowd Of spectators was
diminished to a much smaller number
than we have previously rem arked at this
ceremony.
Within few seconds Of the royal cor
tege leaving the TuilIeries, by the gate
leading to the Port Royal, and whilst the
crowd assembled on the quay were cheer
ing the appearance of his Majesty, a
young man rather genteelly dressed, made
an attempt on the kings life, by firing a
pistol at him, which happily did not take
effect. The assassin, it is said was so
close to the carriage, in which were the
Dukes dOrleans and Nemours, that his
Majesty had full view of his person,
and was enabled to point him out 10 the
National Guards, who arrested him, and
conveyed him to the guard house Of the
chateau, without his making any attempt
to resist, or save himself by flight. The
feeling excited among the troops and Ma
tional Guards was such that the wretc bed
youth was nearly sacrificed on the spot
which he had selected for the execution
of his diabolical purpose. The Dukes OF
Orleans and Nemours were both slightly
wounded by the glass Of the carriage
window, which the ball directed against
his Majesty shivered to atoms. During
this scene the king exhibited the greatest
GOODNESS and courage and the process
ion, Immediately after the arrest of the
assassin, continued its route to the Cham
Der without any other event marking It's
progress.
