MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF TEXAS
Pcayune publishes the following synopsis of the
message of Gov. Bell of Texas:
The Governor commences by saying the event
which has taken place-the acceptance Of the
boupdary bl--was anticipated by him and the
Legislature He justifies the submitting of the
propositions to the people, though the resolutions
contained no such stipulation. He thinks it is to
be regretted that Congress was not more SPECIFIC
in defining the mode of ascertaining and making
known at the federal treasury the amount Of debt
for W hich the FIVE millions of stock to be
tanned, or had not deemed the REIMBURSEMENT by
the State of all liability the part Of the United
States, as sufficient guarantee. He considers
that the creditors Of Texas must look 10 her alone,
and not TO Texas, for an adjustment OF their claims.
La regard to the bonds issued by the late Republic
for double the amount of the original contracts,
he thinks that between private individuals such
would be void on account of usury- Tie, how
ever, recommends that the Government should
certainly pay to its creditors the full amount of the
benefits received, and interest on the amount from
the time when it should have been paid.
He also recommends that law be passed re-
quiring all creditors holding claims against the
late Republic o. Texas, and for which the reve-
nues arising from impcs, duties were specially
pledged, to file releases in favor of the United
States, in respect to said claims, with the Comp
tsoe of the State within specified time, and
in default thereof, their claim upon the United
States for liability OF said debts, growing out of
the transfer of the revenue under the articles Of
Of annexation, shall b. considered as waived.
In what manner the State shall dispose OF the
five millions of dollars, for which certificates of
stock will be issued and placed at its control as
soon as notice is given of the acceptance Of the
propositions, the Governor thinks future Legs
lature should decide

Improper Spirit.

The editor Of the Indiana Journal. the moment nf-
ter he has announced the death of General Taylor.
raises the seciunal cry, and denounces the Sem
tnei as the Southern organ OF the Democracy, be-
cause we have opposed the sentiment first publicly
expressed in the Senate Of The United States by SEN
ator Seward. that there is law of opinion or con-
science. higher than the Constitution of our country,
that should govern Legislative action. The editor
seems to glory in the idea that we have North
President, who has been charged with abolition
sentiments; and that now he can secure the co-ope-
ration Of the old abolition party in Indiana, to aid
him in overthrowing Democracy. The occasion for
this apparent triumph of feeling is certainy most i'll
timed, as it was exhibited ere the body of General
Taylor was consigned to its kindred earth, and we
trust will be most signay rebuked by the people Of
Indiana. The crisis existing in country is
one not demanding appeals to sectional predjudces.
1t is one where every patriot should strive to allay
the angry waves Of passion; and, in candor can
say, Mlard Fillmore without great prudence is not
the man for the present juncture in affairs and
the editor Of the Journal is not aiding him in the
duous duties in which he is about to engage, when
he exhibits secret triumph that in Indiana, at least,
there is the hope of bringing back the abolition
lists into the fold of whiggery. We repe with scorn
the idea, that we either a Southern or Northern
organ. We are for our country, and we hope that
the present acting President of the United States
may rise above all sectional feelings and be the Pres
ident of the whole people, We envy not the rePu-
tation that mny be gained by the Journal in its APP
peals sectional feelings and prediudces of our
scountrymen, with the hope of party advantage
