2Sth of August, before the city of Lisbon,
but without decided advantage TO either
party. A proposition for an srmistice had
been made by the ministerialists, but had
not been acceded to. The latest accoun,

Prospect of War OF our Frontier. We
have conversed with a gentleman Just ar-
rived in the city from independence, Jack
son County, Mo. We learn from him, that
great excitement was prevailing amongst
the citizens Of that quarter, who were ex-
pecting an attack from the Osnge Indians.
They had sent several threatening mes
sages to the frontier inhabitants, and had
already committed some depredations on
their property--having stolen several hogs
and cattle, and reports say some negroes.
application had been made to the Gov
ernor for troops, and instructions had been
issued by tho Secretary of State (in the alb
sence of the Governor,) to Gen. Lucas, to
raise Instantly six hundred men from his
division, which, we believe, consists of Jack.
son, Lafayette, and Van Buren, counties.
The militia Of the several counties were to
meet on Saturday last, to raise the number
of troops ordered by the commander Of the
division. We are also informed tina, Gem
eral Atkinson had an interview with the
Governor on this subject, and it is proba-
BILE that the condition of affairs in tha, quar-
ter will require the immediate personal at-
tention of himself or General Gaines. The
Osages say they can bring one thousand
warriors into the field, and that they have
no fear Of the consequences of War. Our
informant: had not learnt the particular
grievance Of which they complain.

gence.

taverns and partook of a splendid dinner,
asking and obtaining almost every luxury
in the city. After he had finished, he step

Wool During the last few weeks there
has been limited demand for this article,
but at quite low prices, compared with those
realized last year. Prices will range within
our quoted rates, which are somewhat be-
low those we have noticed in other Prices
Current in the city, but after diigen, in-
quiry, we are satisfied that our quotations
are quite as high as are warranted by any
sales that have been made, or the immed-
late prospect Of future sales. The stock in
market, of both fleece and pulled, is small,
but still equals the present demand. A
considerable quantity of Wool, shorn in
1886, yet unsold, and nearly all of the
present years clip remains in the hands Of
the growers. who are generally unwilling
to submit to such rates as manufacturers
can afford to pay, whilst woollen goods re-
man at their present low prices. We learn,
however, that in some sections of the couu-
'ry, the growers are more ready to yield to
The state ofihe times, and have made some

VINO have been the principal purchasers,

STATE ELECTIONS.

PENNSYLVANIA. The election for state
Senators and Assembly men took place on
Tuesday last. As was expected the wings
have, as usual, carried the city Of Philadel-
phia, hut the county has gloriously main
tanned its democratic reputation. TIE N.

from 33 OIL, of the SO counties in the state,
which gives the wings Al and the admins
tration AZ members of Assembly.
The returns last year from the same
counties stood Al to As.
GKoReIA.-The New York Express Of
Monday says; "All the counties are heard
from bit eight, Gilmer is 10l4 votes ahead"
The White electoral ticket had about 5000
majority, last November. There is no
doubt Of the election Of a decided admins
tration majority of members to the legisla-
ture.

ged with travellers and cmigrants for the
Red River counties and Texas. 1t is
thought that the influx of emigrants into
Texas this year, will amount to something
like 5000. The majority of these are the

The correspondence between our govern
insnt and those of Mexico aud Texas, which
was called for by the House of Representa-
tives on motion of Mr.. Adaus, has been
communicated by the President. 1t con-
sis,s of long letter from General Hunt,
the Texian minister at Washington, to Mr.
Forsyth, proposing a negotiation on the
subject of the annexation of Texas to the
Union,-a reply by Mr.. Forsyth, and re-
joinder by the Texan minister. Mr.. For
syrh's reply is every way creditabe 10 the
government, and will be highly satisfactory
to the people at large, especially at the
North, where the feeling is almost univer-
sal agans, the measure in question. MIR.
Forsyth remarks, that it may be doubted
whether The annexation of foreign inde-
pendent state to the Union is within the
constitutional powers Of Congress, aud tina,
The President does not consider it expsdient
to agi,ate this question under present cir
cumstances. Texas is at war with Mexi-
CO. BY admitting Texas into the confeder-
acy, the United States assume her existing
relations to other powers and of course de-
clare war against Mexico,-a power with
whom we are at peace. Such an act wopld
obviously violate the plainest rules of mora
obligation as well as set at defiance the
cleures, dictates of policy. The President
therefore, declines even to take the matte
into consideration, and gives the proposn
at once, distinct and definite refusal

Kennebec DANA most remarkable
work of internal improvement has recently
been accomplished at Augusta, on the Ken
nebec river-the construction Of an arti6c-
ial dam across that noble stream for the
formation of mill privileges. This itnpor-
tant work has been long contemplated, but
its accomplishment has been deemed by
most people to DO utterly impracticnble. A
company was however formed for the pur-
pose of effecting the object, and expert
ments under the .superlntendance of Col.
VIM. Boardman, of New Hampshire, have
been completely successful. On Wednes-
day, the 9th ut. the current of the Ken
nebec was arrested in Its course, and the
waters were rolled back. The breadth of
the river at Augusta is 600 feet, and the
height of each dam is feet. The basin a
bove extends to Waterville, l6 miles above,
and after the dam was made, it WAS Eve
days in filling TO the top; and the whole
volume of water in the river now rolls over
the dam, uffording beautiful object for the
eve, and a most extensive water power for
tisl work, calculated to sustain the flood
and immense weight OF ice that annually
flows down the river. A canal of handsome
mason work, for vessels and boats of large
size, coLnects the waters above and below,
and mill privileges to an indefinite exten,
can be constructed through lateral canals.
1t is work of vast importance to Augusta,
as 1t will forever concertrste there an inn
mense business to be derived from wateI
| For all IF ,.(,
poses. So important was it considered by
the people, that on Sunday, the LIST inst
when the water was fast rising, and IL be-
come necessary to have the dam completed,
800 citizens Of Augusta volunteered their
services, and worked all day and night
Thus was the last stroke Of work applied
with alacrity, and the dam was consumna-
ted. We congratulate the company and
the people of that vicinity, on the achiev-
ment of n work, which will contribute so
