\ SHORT DESCRIPTION OF TEXAS. =
The Stale of Texas 5 now divided into
lorty-fiVe counties. OF these, Mont
gomery is the most populous Of the IN
lerlor counties, and Galveston the most
popuIous of those situated on the coast
Galveston is the most important city
Of Texas, though Houston contains a.
bout the same number af inhabitants.
The next city of Importance is San
Augustine, in which are located the
Washington College, with about 40
students, and seminary with sixty
or seventy-fve. 1t has a population
of 1900. Austin, the seat of govera-
ment, in Travis county, at the foot of
the San Saba moutain, and figurativeIy
called the Getty of the seven hills,n is
beautifully situated on the Colorado,
in one of the most picluresqe and ro-
mantle spots in Texas. Ii has pop
ulatlon of 1900, and is rapidly increas.
ing. The new constitution provides
that the seat of government shall con-
tinue at Austin until 1850, when, should
the State be divided in the meantime.
the probability is that it will be remov-
ed farther east.
San Antonio de Bexar, near the
western frontier of Texas, on the San
Antonia river, is the oldest and best
built town in Texas 1t was settled a.
bout two hundred years Ego, under the
auspices OF an association of Spanish
monks, anc at one time contained about
5000 inhabitants. But it has been
several times nearly depopulated within
the last century by the Cumanche In
dams, it never having been Adequately
defended by its inhabitants, or the Span
ish and Mexican governments; nor
until its partial occupation by Texan
and American citizens. The town is
built entirely Of stone, and row con ains
a population Of about 1900.

Gen. HouSton.--The arrival OF Gen.
Houston at Washington is said 10 have
created a good deal Of interest. The
following scene is said 10 have occur
red in the senate on the installation Of
the here ofSan Jacinto as an American
Senator.
GEN. HoUsToN IN THE SENATE.-A
spondent of the Courier writes
from Washington, March 80, as follows !:
1.-The installation Of Sam Houston was
decidedly the Senatorial event Of the
day. He advanced into the hall with
modest, and almost say a retiring
step, and delivered his credentials to his
colleague, who, on presenting them,
announced the confn rs Of the package.
Whereupon, the audience rose and
leaned 10 catch a ,gIimpse Of the man of
San Jaclnto. After taking the oath,
Mr.. Webster advanced TO him with a
quck step, and Selling his hand, shook
1t with a violence quite out Of character
Tor him. Messrs. Calhoun and Ben
ton next each took one OF his hands.
and at the same time cordially weIcom
cd his advent to the Senate. The fell
low members, IN BODY as it were, fol-
lowed on closely TO compliment him on
becoming one OF their number. The
expression which marked Houston s
countenance during this short and in
teresting scene, was beyond my powers
Of description. There was little Of ex
ultation in it; intensity Of thought and
feeling seemed ready 10 burst the veins
Of his forehead and his well-turned
neck.

OREGON.-BY MRS. JAMES BEVERAGE
All hail Oregon! though afar
Thy misty mountains rise,
And other oceans lave thy strand,
Beneath the Western skies:
Y ct. 10 thy chidren's far-of' homes.
The voice Of brothers here
Shall come upon the eastern breeze
70 greet their distant ear.
To tell them that columba's sons
Their Champions true will stand,
Should foreign foe, with step prolane
Fer dare polIutc thy land!
And glorious visions now arise
To fancy's dreaming eye,
As bright upon thy future skies
She paints thv destiny.
She hears from far Atlantic's shore
The voice of Liberty
Call to Thy nils and prairies wild.
The children of the free.
And bid them build their alters there
And DER thy mountains high,
To wave thy starry standard sheet
In glory TO the sky!
