in civil affairs was taken up.
Mr.. Jefferson Davis replied at great length,
to,Mr. Houston's remarks s.of a former day,
concerning Gen. Taylors generations on the
Rio Grande. Mr.. Dvis yindicatcd Gen. Tay-
1or from Mr.. Houston's animadrersions.
The subject was postponed
ar. Pearcc rose and said lie had prepared
bill to settle the boundaries of Texas lie
made some remarks in explanation of il
The great obstacle to our progress was the
question of boundary, and it was the cause
OF the defeat Of the compromise bill. 1t
seemed 10 him right and polite that cach
measure should be judged of by itself. 1t
would have mare strength sirgly than in q
combination with others.
1t wasa question that invoked the peace
and happiness of the United States. He had
intended in his proposed measure to deal
literally with Texas. The boundary which
he proposed would not suit every one, but he
believed thatit combined many advantages.
The bilhwas partly based on the bill offered
carly iPthe session by the Senator from Mis-
souri,. Mr.. Benton3
He went on to describe the boundary
which lie hadchosen. ,s.
Thc.LiIl was read It is q bill proposing
toHeyas a northern and western boundary,

The California Bill was then taken up, and
Ieported TO the Senate.
The question was on ensrossment.
sllr. Foote despaired OF obtaining &ny
amendment of the Bill favorable to the South.
The failure of the Compromise bill had de-
gstrSyed all hope of this.
