NATCHEZ, Oct. IL.

Alctter from a gentleman at Nat
chitoches to his friend in Natchez.
contains information, which he says
was communicated 10 him by tho
commandant at Nacogdeches. that
after the arrival of the army Of the
revolutionists under col. Magee at
the Trinity, it had, in few days,
been joined by fifty.five citizens and
soldiers from St. Antonio; some Of
them spies of st. Brannow. whom
he had sent to watch the movements
Of gen. Rayan in the interior pro-
yiBees-that the presence Of the ar
my at the Trinity had inspired the
people with fresh courage, & caused
Governor Saleedo TO attempt An es-
cape. which was prevented and nc
with St. Brannow confined TO their
houses.-AlIthc citizens arrested by
hem bad been released.
The report was, that general Ray
on's army had been victorious every
where. ard was within one days
march of Saltee, which is about the
same distance from St. Antonio.
If this report is true, the account
published two or three weeks a.
go from Mexico by the way OF Ha-
wanna, of Rayon's defeat, is proba-
bly, a f4brication.-That account,
however. stated that neither More
los nor Raysn had been taken, and
the. may have retreated in the d.
recfios mentioned in the letter from
n!atchi:oches, in order 10 raise more
troops.-I'he revolutionists may End
danger in receiving amongst them
and putting confidence in st. Bran.

r;or Of the Spanish provinces. he
took the flag of the United States
! with him, and one soldier from the
garrison. He is the gentleman that
was taken by the Spaniards with CO.
lionel Pike some years since, near
Santa Fee, and is supposed to be
sert by the United States on ms
SION TO Mexico, but this is only con-
lecture, as his Intentions or IN
struetioBs were kept Totally a seeset;
however, it is currently believed that
lie will be stopped by Magee and his
party, at all events will not be per.
mittcd TO 70 on before the army. A
gentleman with whom l convcrsed
at Natchitoches Immediately from
Nacogisches, informed me it was
currently reported there, that a dc.
tachment Of general Ryaus's army
under the command of Spaniard,
had passed the Rio Grande and lad
taken St. Antonio, and that they had
governor Salcedo in irons. This re.
port has not as yet been confirmed,
but from the best information can
gather. there appears no doubt but
that the Republican party will sue
reef: this part of the country being
generally in their favor. They have
plentiful supplies Of provisions
They have sent in a large number of
mules and a quantity Of wool. which
they have taken from the Royal par
ty, and which bas been sent on TO
Natchez for the purpose of procur-
ing arms and ammunition. Some
traders have been out, but without
a permission from the commanders
ofthe army arc not allowed to trade,
and in one instance they have eonfis-
