Texas Cyedttors-Trus Policy of Isras, etc.
I"X.," of the Baltimore Sun, writes, on the 10th
on the subject of the debt Of Texas. We have
watched the tone Of the Texas press for some time
past with some and anxiety, in reference to
this vexed question. 1t is impression that some
| such mode of payment as "X." here projects, with
cautious and stringent provisions, however, as to
the disposition of her bonds would suit the views
of majority in Texas.
- WASHINGTON, June 16, 1851.
You will remember the meeting of the Texas
creditors held here some time in February last
An adjourned meeting was to be held in June, but
as yet no call has been published in any paper 1t
is still hoped that majority Of the people of Texas
will not sanction the pundering schemes projected
ysome Of her political flibusters. The people OF
Texas are sound, and will make no attempt to
swindle the creditors Of the State. Besides, il is
an easy matter to show to the people that, paying
sixty cents in the dollar in cash, and the rest in
State stock, bearing three per cent. per annum,
from the LIST of January, 1855, giving Texas the
benefit of the interest in the time, and making
the stock at all times receivable at its nominal
value in payment for the public lands at their mar
ket value,) the state of Texas would make better
bargain than BY paying the scaled rates, and thst
| she would in addition to the pecuniary advantage
save her honor and reputation. If she wants to
handle three or four millions of dollars out Of the
ten, she can do SO by this very means, which would
not only increase the credit of the State but that OF
every individual Texan in it. If she wants money
for internal improvements this is the way to obtain
ii for it is idle to suppose that State can repudi-
ate without diminishing the credit of every mercan-
tile man it. II Texas is willing to set the example
OF reputation to her corporations of course the
latter, when pressed, will do the same the act
which declares the Legislature in its own case, ca
pabe OF impairing the obligations of contracts, will
have little or no scruple to discharge corporation
from similar obligations, until the Legislature shall
have realized that honesty is the best policy. X

Important Treasury Circular.-The following
is the circular issued by the Secretary of the Treas,
ury to collectors and other officers Of the customs
relative to applications for the ref ndng of excess
of duties, rendered necessary by the act Of Sd
March, 1851, which are summed up as follows in
accordance with recent decision of the Supreme
Court:
l. 1t will be incumbent upon the party claiming
to have refunded any excess of duty on importa-
tons made prior to the passage Of the above act Of
Sd March, 1851, to make application in writing to
the collector Of the port where the goods in ques-
ton may have been entered, setting forth the de-
scription of goods the dates Of shipment and i'm
portation, and name of vessel, with proof showing
the exact date when the goods were purchased or
procured abroad, and their value at the time, and
cured for the purpose Of being shipped to the
United States.
This application, and the accompanying proof,
will be forwarded to this department by the col
letcor with statement of the facts in the case to-
gether with such proper explanations as the records
or files of his office will afford, accompanied by a
certified statement in due form of any excess of
duties which, in his opinion, ought to be refunded.
2. No cases will be taken into consideration by
the department except those where the appraisers
have advanced the invoice price in consequence of
difference Of value between the period Of alleged
procurement purchase and the period of exporta.
ton to the United States; and the claimants must
also clearly show that, at the time of such procure
ment or purchase, the goods were intended bona
tide for shipment to the United States, and that
they were thus exported within reasonable time
thereafter.

The hremen are again mastering to escort the

demonstrations.
An abolition meeting was held in Franklin Hall
yesterday, which was attended by mixed assem-
blage of all coors and both sexes. There was
such confusion of tongues that the scene can only
be lkened to the Babel of old, with the additional
tact that there were number of female speakers.
The object of the meeting was to defend George
Thompson, and to denounce the authorities and the
press, on account Of his not having been permitted
to speak. The crowd present, though noisy, were
good natured, and by means inclined to do mis-
chief to either person or property.
desperate battle occurred yesterday afternoon
at secluded spot the Schuylkill, back of the
Slrard College, between the Tormentors and
Bleeders. The parties were disturbed by the po-
lice, and one of the ring Headers eluded the pursuit
by leaping into the river. The officer wounded
him by ball from his revolver, but he escaped in
boat, brought to him by two boys, when about
sinking. The police are still on the look out

The rebellion against the old clothes dynasty has
