TEEdS EXPEDITTON.


The Editors of the Nat. lntelligencer,
have information on which they say they
can rely, that the consequences of the
rash invasion OF the Spanish territory, by
handful of men from the American
lines, are proving to be such as might
naturally have been expected. After the
dispersion of these men, those settlers i'll
Texas who had associated with them,
were lett in most pitiable condition.
All the American settlers have been O.
bliged to cross over TO this side of the
line, and leave behind them the fruits OF
their industry and the hopes OF their fam
lilies. The Span;ards from St. Antonio,
100 stfong, with six pieces Of cannon,
were, abont the lst OF this month, near
Labadie. Their intention was to estab-
lish post at Nacogdoches, ard settle the
Province. Gen. Long had gone to La.
fitte's, at Galyeztown and it was consit.-
cred unsafe for lin to return ts the
route by which he went out Win
such materials as composed the expcdit-
ion, il was impossible any other result
could have attended it. The soldiers
were generally Of the most worthless or.
dcr-men unfit for any service, and ev-
en- such as were discharged, on account
of their worthlessness, from the service
of daily lab,.rers at Baton Rouge and
Othes posts - ID.

Remarkable Discovery We have
heard singular story within few days.
from several respectable sources, respect.
ing the discovery of a human skeleton in
remote part OF Litchheld, which it is
thought will lead to the discovery OF a
murder, now for the first time supposed
to have been committed there about
twenty four years since. Ii seems that
on repairing an old house formerly occu-
pied by Nh. and charging the Gel
lar, the skeleton of man was found in
singular position, under what was for-
merly bed room. This circumstance
immediately brought to recollection a
number Of suspicious incidents, which
occurred about the time before mention
ed; but which, disconnected with the
human bones, were not much regarded.
Among these incidents were the follow
ing "A man in this neighborhood un-
dertook long journey, leaving his wife
as the house-keepcr Of the aforesaid Mr..
Several months afterwards, the lat
ter took up stray horse, saddle and bri-
die; had them advertised, and no owner
appearing, chey were sold according to
law. Mot long after this event, the wo-
man was SAID to have received a letter
announcing the death of her husband;
and some time afterwards she married
the said--. The union was not
very happy one, and at times, when ILL
treated, the wife was heard to threaten to
expose her husband. Now there was
nothing very singular in all these Occult
rences, excepting the saddle and bride
found upon the stray horse; and had it
not been for the bones. they probably
would never have been thought Of again.
We understand the grand. jury have had
the subject under consideration. and have
sent. for the aforesaid--snd wife, who
several years since removed To-,
where they now-reside. .-Harvord ZAP.
