says that :. there Is great likelihood
that a war on our Western border I
has already commenced" if General
Gaines has interfered to prevent
the Indians within our limits joining
the Mexicans, and his instructions
from Washington, leave NO other al
Tentative than his marching to the
Sabine.
j The position Of affairs in that Sec
/, ton of country, has become critical
in the extreme, and the attention of
government must forthwith be d:rec-
tied towards that quarter. or the
whole West and South will embark
in the contest without waiting tAsi
faction of the administration. 1t is,
plain that in Furnishing the Texans,
Santa Anna has contemplated geingI
further. and wishes to visit with his
wrath, those in the Southern and
Western States who have aided the
Texans; which he intends doing by
exciting the negroes and Indians. No
treaties with Mexico can be held as
sacred if the war against Texas is TO
be made ,he excuse for attacks on the
South and West. However, the time
for action has arrived. The Bill ac-
icepting the ail volunteer mountel
riiieEnen, should be passed; all the
IdispOsa bl, force in the country should
Iprocee! South, and all the arms AM
munitions OF war should be in readi-
ness. We must make instant pre-
la.ra:1ons for 4 contest which, to US,
seems inevitable.
I From EUrsoN's CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, May Sd, 1865, P. NJ.
= An express despatch has arrived
K here this evening, from Gen. Games,
: calling for three brigades of militia
e to enable him to resist meditated
d attack from the Camanche Indians.
: Gaines says that they are to be led
e on armed by Santa Anna, who has
/ laid claim to the port of Natchitoches.
1t is thought by many here, that we
). shall have rupture with Mexico be-
II fore many months.
+ MEXICO.-We learn by gentleman
direct from the CITY of Mexico, that the
# death Of Gen Rarregan, president protein.
had occasiOned great confusion at the Cap.
r itol. All was anarchy and uproar. Riots
and murders were common in the streets.
The Swedish consul's house was robbed
q and himself murdered; priest headed the
= mob Who perpstrated the deed. Ssata
Anna had not vet left the Army on the
18th of April, but it is thought he would
hasten to the Capitol on hearing of the
+ state of affairs there. Tho Liberal party
: was secretly engaged in exciting revo
lutiOnary movement, and we're expected
S daily to break into hostilities. The less
r wary did not hesitate openly to denounce
4 Santa Anna and his government. -[CIN.

also buried by the falling mass, but his life

Two or three other persons. when cur

to this calamity; Or, perhaps, it would
be more correct to say of the strong

system Of eaeses and effects, b.
