LATER FROM TEXAS

By the arrival of the steamship Louisiana this
morning, we have Galveston papers of the 3lst
Austin of the 29th ult, and a number of other
Texas papers.
The Austin State Gazette, of the 29th ut, has
the following paragraphs:
Governor P. II. Bell has resigned the Office of
Governor of Texas and the duties of that station
have been thereby devolved upon our present Lieu
tenant Governor. J. W. Henderson, by whom they
will be discharged until the Dist December
Gen. A. Sidney johnson, who returned on Sun
day evening last, from his periodical trip to the
forts the upper waters of the Brazos and Trinity
informs US that the Indians are quiet on that part
of our frontier, at present. -..
In noticing the proceedings in the legislature,
the Gnzete has the following paragraph in relation
to the Pacific Railroad
"The committee on Internal Improvements of
the Senate have given the bill for the construction
of the Mississippi and Pacific Railroad thorough
examination, and although not yet reported, we
are informed have come to the following conclusion
To extend the time for the construction of the first
fifty miles, TO eighteen months To reserve from
location belt OF country sixty miles in width to
leave open and undetermined the point at which it
shall cutter the eastern boundary of the State but
TO bear in such direction from where it does enter
as to reach the 32d deg. of north latitude in the
vicinity Of the Trinity. They recommend the strik
ing out Of the 18th, 18th, 18th and 18th sections
their substance is provided for in the general
railroad law Of the State The principal difficulty is
now the fixing the point at which the road shall
cross the Trinity river. Twenty instead of sixteen
sections ofland to the mile are given to the com
pany who shall construct the road.

be able to resume his seat in the Senate The char

THE INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT BILL,

A correspondent Of the Knoxville REGISTER re.
views the action of the Senate on the internal i'm.
provement bill and compliments those who were
most active in its advocacy as follows:
The Senators from East Tennessee to a man
sustained the bill, and your Senator, Col Nelson,
made two most excellent and effective speeches in
its behalf-speeches which were such as be can
make when IN his best moods. He was heard with
the profoundest attention, and did honor TO himself
and the constituents whom he represents by the
liberal enlightened and patriotic manner in which
he treated the subject DR.. Bell also addressed the
Senate, IN vlndicaton more especially of the Ra
bun Gap road, and l am sure his constituents in
Bount county, are very much indebted N him for
the manner in which he devoted himself n thair;n.
terests so far as they are involved in the fate Of bot
road. NO one, know, could be more faithful than
he. DR.. Carriger, though he did not deem it ne
cesSsry 10 address the Senate at length ,Ubla tLa
bill was under consideration, was constantly ON the
alert to see that in nothing was any parliamantsrr
advantage obtained by the enemies ofthe bill and
in this way and by the private announcements of
its friends, he too did good service OF Messrs
Nave, Bewley and Hsvron, l may be permitted to
say that they were steadfast friends, and were in
constant readiness to take such position as would
secure the passage of the bill To the aid of the
East Tennessee Senators, came Dr. Robertson. who
spoke several times and with much energy and
power, in favor Of the bill. Gen Polk also took
the floor, and advocated the bill in his felcitous vet
forcibe manner. He has shown himself to be not
only what al admit him to be, gentleman in the
Legislature and out oft but one Of the most en-
ghtened and liberal friends of internal improve.
nents in the State. I have been thus specific in !
he mention OF the names Of Senators who support
"a the bill, IN order that il may be known to whom
We are indebted for the passage of the bill through

AaAINsT OLD RoaRn-

The vote is not full one; yet the enemies of the
old board were much more excited than their friends,
it is reasonable TO suppose that full vote would
have increased the majority in still greater pro-
portion. ... es -r.7E-.rt
The result is brilliant compliment to the Presi-
dent of the road v X. STEVENSON, Esq, against
whom the main attacks of those who have used DR..
ARMSTRONG have been leayeIled. 1t is compliment,
however, which has been richly earned; and the
city honors herself quite as much as Mr.. STEVEN
sox in its bestowaL The Mayor and those Alder
men who felt themselves Instructed" by their cleo
ton to vote against the old board will doubtless re-
Gel the proper sympathy of the public in the dis
u .g tn which they must receive this vote.

NASHVILLE TRUE TO HERSELF AND TO HER
FRIENDS.

Referring, in our paper of Sunday, to the fact
that the Mayor and Aldermen, after finding them
selves unable to agree how the vote of the city on
account of her stock in the Nashville and Chat
tanoopa railroad should be cast for directors, had
agreed to submit the question TO the division of
the people we expressed the confident opinion that
the majority for the old board would be very decs
i've. We were not mistaken in our Judgment.
Yesterday the vote was taken, with the following
emphatic result:
