From the N. o. T'rcpic, Feb. eth.
From Texas


The steamship Alabama, Capt Windle. arrived
from Galveston We are indebted TO Capt w. for
Galveston papers Of the 18th. Gov. Runnels, the
new Collector for the District OF Texas, had arrived
al Galveston The Civilian says:
He has not, we believe, received any Instructions
from the L. s Government TO the ti:e and manner
Of entering upon the discharge OF his duties and at
loss tn know low TO proceed in the absence OF scc IN
si.uctions As YET the laws OF Texas continue
has not yet organized his office under the laws Of the
CneCi States"
The, News has the following =
''W candidy confess cannot see how the present
Collector can consistently renqush his Office without
instructions from our Executive And II the Executive
lie must continue fall force until formally resigned by
he action OF the Legislature then OF course he will main
tain the Tariff and all other laws until that event
Meantime the interests OF Texas, and especially the
business of Galveston Is suffering seriously. One Gov
ernmenl is now collecting duties which the other has
promised TO refund. Such absurdity and conaics OF
jurisdiction should DO avoided il possible COPIES Of
the Joint resolution admitting Texas state sHd copies
also of tho resolution extending the revenue laws Of ihe
Union over Texas and making Galveston port Q! entry
MI duly signed by the President were entrusted 10 capt
Todd of the Texas Navy, 30 be handed 10 the Texan
authorities"
|, therefore appears that the course pursued by the
United States hiss been officially made known TO this
Government 10 determine whether 70 yield 70 such au
thori,y OF rcss. until State Legislature shall see
proper Many erisrsnts have recently imported
property To large the faith Of the Treasury
Circular thinking OF course there would be duties 20
pay.
The McKim with a cosstw:se clearance from New-Or
leans lying in port with large freight the own
unwilling enter their goods subject TO the payment
OF Tariff which they suppose longer in force This
manifest injus;iceio merchants snd eisrants ought not
to exist.
