TUESDAY MORNING. JUNE 7, 1836.

We have received several files of New York papers,
The latest dates of which Teach only to the I 1 th May.
The state of affairs in the Texas continues to be ex-
tremely unfavourable to the American arms, and the war
With the Indians in Florida lingers on, amid bluster on
"ne side and cruelty on both. We take the following
401 n the New York Star of the 10:II ult. :
" WAR ON THE FRONTIER.—The Globe says that "there is
great likelihood that a war on our Western border has already
-"rameneed," if General Gaines has interfered to prevent the
tans within our litnits joining the Mexicans, and his instruc-
li°llB front Washington, leave no other alteruative than his
41arching to the Sabine.
.14 ".The position of affairs in that section of country, has
leolue criticial in the extreme, and the attention of government
14, ult forthwith be direeted towards that quarter, or the whole
West and South will embark in the contest without waiting the
...Ution of the administration. It is plain that in punishing the
%leas, ,Santa Anna "has contemplated going further, and
wishes to.visit with hii wrath, those in the Southern and Westein
"Itktes who have aided the Texians ; which he intends doing by
*letting the negroes and Indians. No treaties with Mexico
''4ll be held as sacred if the war against Texas is to be made
the excuse for attacks on the South and West. However, the
litue fur action has arrived. The Bill accepting the aid of
tutee
mounted riflemen, should be passed; all the disposable
in the country should proceed South, and all the anus and
*gatiitions of war should be in readiness. We must make
illititnt preparations for a contest which, to is, seem inevitable. I

( From Hudson's Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, May 3d, 18.36-8, P.M.—An express des-
f'4tels has arrived here this evening, from Gen. Gaines, calling
-411. three bricrades of militia to enable him to resist a meditated
4ttei:k from the Cement:he Indians. Gaines says that they are
lc be led on armed by Santa Anna, who has laid claim to the
14°h tt of Natchitoches. It is thought by many here, that we
lil have a rupture with Mexico before many months.
rtoittnA WAR.—" The official despatches received at the
Get department from Gen. Scott, transmitting the reports from
tierala Clinch and Eusus, and Colonel Lindsay, on the opera.

I we regret to learn also, by an arrival from Key West,
