FRoM THE INDIAN coUNTRY--Letters have been
received from the detachment of United States
troops, under the command Of Colonel Kearney, out
from Fort Leavenworth about eight days, and dis
tant some one hundred and thirty miles The expe-
diton was progressing rapidly, and all were in good
spirits and health. They had passed several COM
panies en- route for Oregon. The emigrsnts were
getting along well, and with very little trouble.
About three thousand persons reported to be on
the route. They are divided into companies Of one
to two hundred, which travel in advance Of each
other about days march. Each company has
from 500 to 700 head of cattle. The emigrants APP
the convenences, and some even Of the Injuries of
life. A large party Of the enigrants were several
days in advance Of the troops under Colonel Kear-
ney. II is probable that the colonel will make rapid
marches until he gets in advance Of all the emgants,
their precedence of him would render it more diff
6cut to obtain game and subsistence for his men.
The grass was up, and in abundance for the supply
of the horses.-St. Louis Republican, June IA.

From the Baltimore American.
THE WEST-ILLINOIS.


A public meeting which seems to have been at
tended by persons from various parts of the State,
assembled at the capital of Illinois the Sd instant,
to take into consideration the existing controversy
with Great Britain in reference to the Oregon. We
do not know how far the sentiments Of this meeting
correspond with those of the entire West on the
subject referred to; they warlike enough. Gov.
Ford presided this Springfield assembly; among
the vice presidents were Ex-Governor Reynolds,
Gen. Hardin, and other men of note. The views
of the meeting were expressed in the following res
outions, with an amendment striking out the por-
ton of the second Of the series included in paren.
theses:
RESOLVED That the title Of the United States TO the Ore
gon Territory up the north latitude Of 81 degrees and
40 minutes Is clear and ndsputabe and is recognised
by all the people Of all parties in the United States
Resolved That the duty of the United States govern
this right without delay, (by giving mmed
ate notice England OF intention to put an end TO the
treaty Of joint occupaon by building forts and placing
troops on the route to the Pacific the protection emf
grants. and by extending our laws over the country
Rso,d That the American right to the Oregon country
being clear and ndsputabls unwilling to hazard
rights submitting the dispute with England TO the
arbitrament Of any foreign power.
Rsotd That independent of all question by dis
covery treaty this republic ought not to permit any
colony 10 be established in any unsettled portion OF
thiscontinent, by any foreign prince or potentac.
RESOLVED, That this principle requires that should
gon. And although adverse to il can be
honoraby avoided yet ready willing, and anxious
necessary maintain the American title to the whole
country by appeal to arms.

New AND IMPORTANT INTENTIONAL MAGNETIC
PRINTING TELEGRAPH.-The application of this hid
den and mysterious power to the purposes Of the
rapid transmission of Intelligence is yet in its infan-
cy. There is now in this city telegraph moved by
the power Of eectro-magnetism, which performs
that which, in our boyish days, we would not have
believed, if we had read it in the Arabian Nights.
We have seen a specimen of printing done with the
usual letters of the alphabet, and as legible to a
child as the clearest type, which was executed at
one end of magnetic wire, through direction Civ
the other. 1t true, incredible the state
ment may seem 10 be, that man might, if the wires
were laid, now sit at New York, and, with more
pidity than our best compassion set type, print
at New Orleans letter or despatch in the ordinary
letters of our language.
In few days this invention will be made more
generally known, when we will be at liberty to
speak Of it more fully. At present, arrangements
making for the perfection Of the patents here and
in Europe. The telegraph itself we have not seen,
and in making the statements with regard to it,
obliged to speak little incautiousy, from hearsay.
But far inquiries go, there is no reason to
doubt the representations that have been made to
this subject and the practicabity Of the thing
itself, now that it has been discovered, carries no
improbability upon the face Of it, it need not be
questioned The effects of this invention can hardly
be anticipated The substitution of the usual alpha
bet for the hieroglyphics of Morses telegraph is
important and valuable improvement upon one of
the most wonderful discoveries of the age.

The DETROIT BANKs.-The intelligence received
OF the injunction of the Farmers and Mechanics
Bank of Detroit, is confirmed by card from its
officers, which we find in the Detroit papers. The
injunction was obtained at the instigaton of Mr. J.
L. Lyell. The president says, in January last the
circulation S345,000 ofthis, there has been re
deemed in coin, or eastern exchange and funds
5000 900 to the present time. The balance outstand-
ing, making no allowance for the lost and destroyed
during the last sixteen years of its business, is
therefore ss5,0O0 The depositors' accounts do no,
exceed $4,000 at all the offices. These are all of itf
liabilities to the public.

News FROM SANTA FE.-The st. Louis Republi-
can, Of the 18th, has the following:
Mr.. Wethered, who has been engaged in the
trade to New Mexico for several years past, arrived
in this city yesterday: In company with Gen. s..
c. Owens, ne reached independence on the 10th in
slant, in advance Of the wagons and men, who were
left at the Little Arkansas. They left chihuahua
on the 18th of April and Santa Fe the 9Th of May,
and had a remarkably pleasant and quick trip. The
proceeds of the years adventure consists of specie
and gold dust, of which, we learn from another
quarter, General Owens brought in about $50 900.
He also has with him samples of wood, obtained at
Chihuahua, with the view Of determining whether
this species of trade can be made profitable. The
company was composed of thirty-six men and six
wagons. Several Mexcans are in company.
OF political news we have been able TO gather
few items Gov. Amijo, who had made himself
obnoxious to the people, by forced and exorbtant
loans of money, and the Imprisonment of the princ-
pal merchants OF Santa Fe, was superseded day or
two before the company left, by the appointment of
Chaves in his stead.

Communicated.

Within the last few days we have heard rumors
of the invasion of Texas by Mexican troops. Seven
thousand Mexican soldiers are said to have already
crossed the Rio Grands This rumor may well
surprise us, after the official acknowledgment
by the Mexican Minister of Foreign Relations,
that the idea of Mexico reconquering Texas
is absurd, and that attempt on her part to
do so, would result in a series of barren
sacrifices Il is at variance with the recent
news from Vera Cruz, and with what has trans
pired in relation to the result Of Captain Eotts
mission TO Mexico. He is said to have brought
back with him treaty, recognising the indepen-
dence Of Texas, with the Rio Grande a boundary,
condition OF her refusing to agree to annexation
II is not to be supposed that Mexico would invade
Texas after making such treaty, and before that
treaty had been acted on by the Texian government.
IL is doubtful too whether Mexico can have raised
the money for such an expedition. Where did it
come froml
Yet it is an approved maxim in military tactics, to
depend less on your adversary's weakness and mac
ton, than on your own vigilance and activity.
Mexico may have raised money, and sent a small
force across the Rio Grande; and the movement at
this time would be explained, SHOULD il appear that
the treaty, brought by Captain Elliott from Mexico,
recognises the Independence of Texas-not with the
Rio Grande as the boundary, but with such bound
aries may include all the territory of which Texas
shall hold possession at the date of the ratification of
the treaty with the guarantee of Great Britain against
further encroachments on the part of Texas.
This would explain the movement of Mexican
troops at this time, the object being to take pos
session of the territory between the Nueces and the
Rio Grande. Then, should British influence in
Texas be sufficient to defeat annexation, and pro-
the adoption of this treaty, as is so confidently
expected in Mexico, the Nueces would be the
boundary under the guarantee Of Great Britain, and
the important country between the Nueces and the
Rio Bravo may, as further barrier against Texlan
encroachments be nut in possession of Great Brit
ain, it already has been mortgaged for portion
of the debt to the British bond-holders.
If there has been any movement OF Mexican
troops across the Rio Bravo, this is probably the
object. q.
