no doubt that in a full meeting the . reslilt
would be 'otherwise.

a high . degree of moral courage. We have
-rarely. heard bolder,'more just or more elo

doctrine of 'repeal' were made in a strain
of lofty and indignantjeeling, which did
honor to his heart. The party hacks, who

THE- TEXAS BOUNDARY LINE
We Watt' weived a communication from
11Ir. R. Petes, containing the information
that the boundary - line between this country
and the United States, has been completed.
to Red ' River, it strikes the southern
bank. of that streath about fifteen Mike West
of the- town. of—Vulton,. Arkansas. We
are glad that this long vexed question is at
length definately settled. The settlers
which have by this 'survey been included
in our limits, have been annoyed by the
conflicting rumors relatiVe to. their claims
to the lands thus changed from the jurisdic
tion of the United States to that of Texas.
Some believe-they will be compelled to re
linquish their land claims or pay for them
to this Republic; and others 'believe that
they will be permitted to hold them upon
the, same conditions as settlers in other
sections of the Republic, and that the money,
they have paid to the government - of the
United States, will,be refunded to this gev
ernitent for them: Some.further action of
Congress will be necessarfto.adjust. these
claims. -It is the general impressiOn, how
ever,-that the settlers will'itot be - disturbed.
