choice of majority of the legislature fav-

TEXAS-BY EXPRESS.

Information has been received at Ma
cogdoches, that Santa Annals forces are
on their march to the frontiers of Texas.
His advance, consists of about $500
men, are advancing on San Antonio and
the different posts below that place.
The Texi,ns, although not so well
provided with supplies as is necessary for
protractcd campaign, have no doubt but
that they can maintain those posts until
reinforcements ARRIVE TO their assistance,
even If the whole force of Santa Anna
should advance more rapidly than is ex-
pected. But little doub. now exists that
the campaign will be protracted, as the
war on the part of the Texans will for
the present, be entirely defensive. This
vii. 1--WE time for emigrants to the country
to arrive and participate III the final strug-
gle. The Texans are united for the same
purpose some difference of opinion has
existed as to the expedicncy of an entire
declaration of independence of or an ad.
herence to the Constitution of 1924. But
both parties have the same object in view
which is a resolute determination to resist
the military despotism of Santa Anna.
The report that General Houston had
been removed from the command of the
army, is uniounded. The Convention
met on the lst Of this month, at Wash
ington, on the Brazos. There is little
doubt that they will declare entire Indc-
pendencc, and take the most energetic
steps for the defence of the country.
Those who join them at the present pc
Rod. when they are struggling for their
| freedom, and even for their existence,
will be cordia!.y received, and Iiberally 7
rocompensed. The natural resources OF
the country are unboundod, and they
who assist in their defence ard deyelopc-
ment will be richly rewarded.
The foregoing information has been re-
ccived from Lieut.. Stansbury, has just
arrived from Nacogdoches, and brings
authcntick information as to the state oi
affairs. He further states, that the Ca.
manches are quiet. and Gen. Houston i:

n.rson on board that was in the cabin, or
On the hurricane deck, was injured in the
least rs we have learned, though the num-
her of passengers was quite large. IL is a
matter of utter impossibilily to ascertain the
number of persons killed and missing as
the boat was just leaving, and probably one
half or more Of the persons on board had
not registered their names. The number
had been variously estimated from zen 20
twenty. The boat we understand Is In-
jured so much as to preclude the practical
bility of repair. The cause of the accident
is generally believed to be the low stage OF
water in the boilers-whe,her by accident
or neglect we will not pretend to say.

From the Jacksoar;lh Courier, March I'm
Interview between General
Gains and Powell.

The news from the camp Of Gen. Gaines
continues to be of great importance. In
our last We stated that Gen. Clnch with the
Alachua militia had joined him. The fol-
lowing extract of letter To the editor will
show the force which accompanied the pro-
visions.
The force which went to the relief Of
Gen. Gaines under the command of Gen.
Clnch, consisted of four companies of
mounted volunteers from Alachua county, =,
one company from Hamilton county, the
Richmond Blues, about seventy friendly In
dans, and some regulars, in all about seven
hundred men. Verbal report states that the
Indians were getting short of lead.
With this force Gen. Clinch went to the
relief Of Gen. Gaines. The night before
his arrival, Oseola (PowelD sent a negro to
the camp of Gen. Games requesting an IN
teryIew, and promising To stop killing white
men if he would stop killing Indians, This
proposition was agreed to, and OseoIa was
told to come next day with white flag,
they would have IA talk with him. The
next day in com pany with another chief, he
came to within about one hundred yards of
the fort, waved his white flag around three
times, and sat down upon log. Three
officers from the camp went to NEE, them.
Oseola Informed them that Gen. Clinch
was OH his way to Join them with large
number of .horsemen. lie expressed his
Willingness that hostilitics cease, and to
give up his arms. The officers required
him to sign articles of agreement by which
he bound himself TO proceed Immediately to
Tampa Bay, aud there embark for the Mis-
slssippi. Some say that Oseola objected to
this mode of removing, and wished to go
by land Others that he would not promise
to 90 a. %, but wished to live the other side
Of the Wrh acoocbee, and to have tha, for
the boundary line between them and the
whites. Tier discussion was interrupted
by the arrival Of Gen. Clmcb. During the
course Of it, Oseola inquired bow they were
off for provisions. They told him, they had
a plenty.-He said he knew they had not,
and II they would come over the nyer, he
