Am Important Case.

A case has been instituted in the United States
Court in Galveston, of great interest and public i'm
porlance. A citizen of Louisiana has sued citizen
Of the county of Santa Fe, a citizen of the State
of Texas The defendant has pleaded in abatement
Of the emit that Santa Fe forms part of the State
Of Teyasthat up to the last treaty Of peace between
the United States and Mexico, Santa Fe was part
Of the Republic of Mexico, and that by said treaty,
Il was ceded 10 the United States, and now consfi-
nes part Of its territory, and Is therefore ont of
the Jurisdiction Of the State OF Texas. To hs plen,
the plaintiff has demurred and assigned for reasons
That since the revolution Of Texas, and the act Of
1896, defining ts limiis--tho joint resolutions Of an
nexaon, and the proceedings in execution thereof,
and the late treaty Of peace, filming the limits of the
United States beyond tbs boundary of Texas that
The government Of the United States and the world
are estopped from denying the right of Texas 10 the
county Of Santa Fe.
Whatever be the judgment OF the court below, II
will be Immediately appealed to tho United States
Supreme Court that final Judgment may behad on
this ''vexed" question.

there should be very strong ground for contrary
conrse. We believe thatGcneral Taylor has straight

he can be induced deviate from II. With the con-

firm; resolved to promote 10 the best Of his ability,

steady adherence TO the principles on which he has

| The following letter from Hon. John Nj. Clayton
Is reply TO an invitation rendered him 10 attt nd
the festival Of the Rough and Ready Association
OF Boston, on the % inst:
WAsHIaGroN, Jan. 80, l649.
Dr,m S,n--I was honorcd in the receipt of your
letter. informing me that the Rough and Ready
Association Of Boston intend celebrating in Fam
eul Hall, (the Old Cradle of Liberty,D on the
I'D February next, by public dinner, the bith-
day of the first Washington the anniversary Of the
battle of Buena Vista, and the election Of Zach
AIRY Taylor, the second Washington, to the Pres
idency of the United States,' and inviting me to
attend on that occasion. Other duties pressing at
the time, will deny me the pleasure Of mingling in
your festival. But think IL an appropriate occa-
sion to say that view the election of Gen. Tay-
lor, as II appears 10 be considered by the Associa-
ton over which you preside, as on emphatic ap-
proyal Of the doctrines Of Washington, clear
annunciation to the world that the people Of the
United States mean TO revive them, restore them,
and apply them again to the administration of the
government, and to rebuke any departure from
them, as unworthy Of their confidence and support.

Of the country will be the rules Of his admins
tration.
