Long Island. HIS summons has been
short and sudden for more fearful

n Magnificent PTojtcL-The pros.
psct Of the independence Of Texas
has already given rise IN New Orleans
10 a splendid design, which, II carried
out will create quite new era in the
history Of a part Of the commerce Of
this country. II IL we'll known that
STEAMBOAT OF 600 or GOO tons bur
then can ascend the Red River as high
asNatchitocbes. and u IL nov proposed
10 a New Orleans paper. that a rail road
shall BE- constructed from that point
through a gorge in the Southern Rocky
Mountains. and thence 20 the Gulf Of
California. Such a wOrk would give
10 New Orleans access 20 the East In
dian. Peruvian and Chilian trade which
would enable her to'sst competition ~
defiance. II appears o. Us however,
that IL - not by the Red River but by
The RIO Grande. that this communities
ton must be effected, IL AZ all. This
last nVer has a course estimated al from
1900 10 1900 miles IN extent. and can
be assembled By steamboats, of light
burihen nearly seven hundred miles
which will be- within an uncomfortable
distance Of the Colorado oi the West
anver that emp,ies into the Gulf CAL

need not be q greater length than tWo
hundred miles.

Mexican General in the Amy of Santa

OF the massacre al the troops under

great minuteness and with painful par
ticularity. The following are extracts:
But what an awful scene did the

executed and fell dead in heaps; and
what spectator could visw it without
horror They were all Young, the old

compilations. When these unfortunate
youths were brought to the place of
death, their lamentations. and the APP
pcals which they uttered TO heaven in
their own language, with extended
arms, kneeling, or PROSTATE on the
earth, were such as might have caused
the very stones to cry out with COM
passion
"P. :. This day, Palm Sunday,
March 21, has been To me a season OF
most heartfelt sorrow. Al six in the

can prisoners was commenced and con-
tinued Till =, when the last of the num-
