IEXAs.-Ihe commercial treaty concluded by
Slaj. Reilly with cur Government has been ratified
by The Iexas Senate, and Is, so far as that Repub
lie IS concerned, the law of the land. This is an
important treaty for Texas.
Gen. Somervllle, with an army of 800 men, cap
tured the Mexican Gown of Loredo on the 9Th of
December. The few Mexican troops who occu-
pied the place, made has.y retreat without aring
q gun Being notified Of this, the army sent q
messenger to the Alcside to make acquisitions for
necessarles, which were promptly furnished. At
ter taking the town, few OF the troops crossed
The RIO Graude, and planted the banner of the
Single Star on tie West bank.
1t Is further stated that about 600 of the troops
crossed the liver on the l9h and took up The line
of march for Guerrero about miles from Loredo,
the balance, i40, returned nome. From Guerrero
1t is presumed they will proceed rapidly onward
and take Mier, Comargo and Rhincsa. BY which
tine It IS be hoped that sufficient reiaforcements
willjoin them 10 encourage descent on Msta-
moros.
1t is reported that the Apache Indians are com.
hitting fresh depredations in Chihuahua, and tha,
nearly all the Mexican troops have been ordered
there 20 drive them back. Ii is even rumored
that Texas has secret agent amseg these Indi-
control their operations. and that The object
of the various tribes nov gathered at the W ace
village Is 10 enter into reanes with the Government
defensive and offensive against Mexico. Ii this
proves tue, the army will have to encounter little
opposition II capturing ali Inc towns and villages
between Laredo and Matamoras, if they march
with proper speed.
