FROM TEXAS

The steam packet New York, Captain
Wright, which arrived yesterday from Gal
weston, brought, Houston dates to the LIST
instant, and Galveston to the 7th The pa
pers received contain a few items of news,
which, though not important, may be deem
ed interesting. A talk had recently been
held on the banks Of the Sabine river, be-
tween some leading citizens of Nacogdo-
ches and chiefs of the hostile tribes. Three
or four of the hostile chiefs attended the
meeting, who expressed much anxiety to
conclude treaty of peace, but in conse-
guence of the absence Of several of the
principal chiefs, delay was occasioned
Both parties therefore agreed to meet on or
about the first of May, at the same place.
The complete defeat of the party under Cor
dova had the effect Of disheartening those
who have hitherto advocated hostilities, and
induced them to accede to the terms propo-
sed by The Government. The first sale of
fots in the City of Austin, the new seat of
government for Texas, will take place on
the first day of August next. The terms of
sale, as advertised by the agent of the Gov
ernment, are-one-fourth payable at the
time of sale, and the balance IN three equal
instruments of SIX, twelve and eighteen
months. Upon failure of any purchaser to
paw the instalments within ten days after
they become due, the property shall revert
back to the Republic, and the purchaser
shall forfeit the amount paid. Payment fol-
the lots must be made in gold, silver, pro
missory notes of the Gov ernment, or audited
paper of the Government.
Those who wish to settle in the new city
of Austin will only have four months il
which to make Improvements, prior to the
meeting of Congress. The shortness of tht
time must render preparations for the ester
tainment of the members of Congress rattle
rude and scanty. They are men, however
somewhat used to hard fare, who will no
complain of the privations incident to tn
settlement Of all new countries. The Pre-
sident, we understand from the Galveston
Gazette. has signifed his intention not t
convene the next Congress at Houston, wha,
Aever difficulties may oppose a removal t
that new metropolis. The crops in Texa
are unusually promising this season. Co
ton, in particular, is said to took remarkabl
fine. Oh that staple, much larger quantitie
are now in cultivation than during any pre-
vious season.-N O. Bulletin l1h inst.
