we call the attention of readers to the follow
ing important case, which we copy from the Gal.
weston Civilian of the 18th inst:
IMPORTANT CAsE.-A case has been nstituied
IN tile United States Court in Galveston, of great
interest and public importance. citizen Of
Louisiana has sued citizen of the county of Santa
re, as citizen of the State of Texas The de-
fendant has pleaded, in abatement of the suit that
Santa Re forms no part of the State of Texas-that
up to the late treaty of peace between the United
States and Mexico, Santa Fe was part of the Re.
public OF Mexico, and that by said treaty it was
coded to the United States, and now constitutes
part of its territory and is therefore out of the iu-
rlsdiction of the State of Texas To this plea the
plaintiff has demurred, and assigned for reasons
that since the revolution of Texas, and the act of
1886, defining Its limts-the joint resolutions of
annexation, and the proceedings, in execution
thereof, and the late treaty of peace, fixing the
limits oil the United States beyond the boundary of
Texas, that the government of the United States
and the world are estopped from denying the right
OF Texas to the county of Santa Fe. Thus is this
great question presented TO the national tribunals
for decision. We understand it will be argued i'm
medlately, and decided in week or two, and taken
to the Supreme Court at Washington for revision.
however it may be determined here The whole
nation feels deep interest in the result We trust
the cause of Texas will be triumphant Counsel
