AN ITALIAN COLONY.

We understand that scheme is on foot for
bringing an association Of Italians from their ma
tive country, to settle in the newborn State of
Texas. They are men of liberal political princi-
pies, who wish to breathe the air of free coun-
try, to enjoy her blessings, and to advance her in
terests.-Most of them have capitals of from ST >
900 to $4,000. They will bring their families
with them, and introduce into their new homes
the arts OF Italy, the cultivation of the vine and
!ne onVe' the manufacture of wine and of oil, and
1t found sufficiently profitable, the raising of the
sllkworm and the manufacture of silk. The
scheme is not yet matured, and the arrangements
are not reduced to detail.-But an American, of
energetic character and of liberal mind, is con-
cerned In the plan, and we wish him the most
ample success in its COMPLIMENTARY ashing-

FROM NEW ORLEANS.

The New Orleans papers of the 18th ultimo
are before us. The military spirit is thoroughly
aroused in that city, and the call for volunteers
will be answered by thousands. No intelligence
has transpired to show that Gen. Gaines reguisi-
ton had any special foundation. The Bulletin
says
eve look upon the requisition, and the other
military movements as measures of precaution,
and do not think that the Government or any of
ITS officers are in possession of more definite in
formation in relation to the affairs of Mexico. or
the movements of the troops, than has been pub.
ilshed in the newspapers"
The New Orleans Bee of the 10Th ultimo in.
forms us that Governor MouroN has countermand-
ed the orders previously issued, and will issue
his proclamation in conformity with the requisi-
tIon OF General GAINES, ordering oui four reei-
n'ents of volunteer troops for Texas. They are to
be enrolled and held in readiness to march at a
moments warning, should their services be deem
ed necessary by Government.
On the morning of the 10Th ultimo Capt. For
NOS first company of volunteer artillery, destined
Tor Texas, was mustered into the service of the
United States. The second company of yolun-
teer artillery was also ready for duty.
Two companies of United States troops arriv.
ed on Sunday week at New Orleans from Pass
christian; on Monday another company arrived
from Fort Pike all belonging to the seventh reo-
1ment OF Infantry, and were to depart on We'd
Resday for Texas.

Previous and up 10 the departure of the bark

war out Of the Castle of ST. Juan de Ulloa, fear
ing' In the event Of an attack, they would fall
into the hands Of the Americans.
y large number Of troops had marched for the
frontier of Texas. The whole force, when as

Bustamente. The Mexicans, Captain NJ. states,
say the United States are sending troops into
Texas, and they, the Mexicans, will march thro'
Texas on the road to the Capitol at Washington,
without declaring war!
Congress have passed the bill permitting the
Government to borrow $l5 100000 to carry on
the War. This amount they confidently expect
to raise in England.
