FROM TsXAs.--The s!oop Gutter, , days from
Galveston, arrived ri this pom yesterday. We
ceived no letters or papers, but from gentleman
who came passenger on The Gutter we learn that
President J0nes hJs issued a Proclamation aHRHl-.

ders'and, states thai the honor and interests OF the
Nation impsra'ively d-mend such course.
The cause OF the aIe. up between President Janes

decOCy and want OF good sense 10 threaten the EX-
ecutivr, aud iniiuuied that he would make the EX-
ecu've Office very unpleasant resii.g place for his
ExceIlepcy the President.

sence, and cut short his oiiicia functions. This IS
pretty piece of hungiue, and altogether worthy Of
the miserable administration which now governs
