The EXPLOSION. The American of Satur-

ysE gunpowder, said to have been in Bcatty's
yusills at the time of the explosion, has been
scry much overrated. There was only very
ssn,aH lot of nanulac. ured powder in the place
revGfso of this; for We have heard from those

sg&te Of the amount of powder in the mis,

Del even in AnulpohSl Let any one view the
tcaGo OF the explosion, aud see the extent Of
damage done to The surrounding property, and
no Gnust be satisfied, that 10 Every small lot Of
s1GUaiscturcd powder" could have produced
such results The truth is, there is generally
100 much careessneSS on the part Of those who
sre engaged in the Manufacture IF gunpowdCr;
rad the consequence is, that tho lives and pro-
5NerLy Of those living in the vicinity are always
at danger. Gunpowder is an arliclL which

SANTA ANNA. A good deal, says the n. o.
Bulletin, has been said about the mode in which
Santa Anna was passed through our blockade.
We state on authority that we know to be I'M
doubted, that he produced no passport or paper
of uuy knd, but whea the Steamboat he was
on board was boarded by the first Lieu tenant
of the St. Mays, the latter officer told HIM
a.. Commodore had orders to let him pass.
Nothing more took place, and all the gossip
about his having Il formal pass from our Gov
ernment has uo foundation.

The Steamer ri Palmetto, Capt. Smith, arrived
this morning from Galveston, which place she
left on the 9Th inst, and we are Indebted q
her clerk for papers Of the latest date. They
contain news Of importance in relation to the
Indians. The Civilian of the 25th says:
Gan express reached Gen. Houston here, on
Monday last, from Torrey's trading house stat
ing that Indians Of various tribes, to the num-
Der of ten thousand, had arrived there in the ex-
pectation Of finding commissioners on the part
Of the United States to treat with and d liver
them presents, in accordance with assurances
to that effect made them BY the commissi 'ners
last spring, and promises also made the Indian
delegation at Washington. Finding neither
commissioners or presents has much dlsap-
pointed the Indians, and fears are entertained
that serious mischief may accrue to our from
tier settlements, unless something is done to
conciliate them. Gen. Houston has written 10
the Messrs. Torrey to do all in their power to
prevent dissatisfaction among them, and direct
ed them, on his own responsibility. to distribute
from their own goods, presents among them to
the value of $4,000 to $4,000 if necessary
and he will hasten 10 Washington, in order tc
induce, if possible such action on the part Of
the government as will save the frontier from
the evils of Indian hostility"
On the evening of the ODD, Mr., M. Bates
was shot in Galveston, while sitting in his
house, by a negro named sancho, who fred al
him through the window. Although Mr.. B
was shot in the breast, and the gun was charg'
ed with buchshot it is believed he will survive
The negro is in CUSTODY. His motives for at
tempting the murder are unknown, but it il
suspected that he was instigated by other par
ties.-N o. TFopic,

general wOOrs oficiaI dispatches.


This reports brief. We give thai portion OF
il which we think will be interesting to our
readers.
l have the honor to report that arrived with
about 1000 men ut the Rio Grande. on the
morning Of the 9th inst, and crossed the river
on the 9th, 10th and 18th inst, without any se-
rious accident, and encamped three miles west
Of the Pres do, and nine miles from the river,
which al the time Of crossing, was four feet
three inches deep. By unloading and raising
the articles a foot in the wug yons,we were ena-
bled to C oss the ford. The infantry crossed
in the boats prepared at San Antonio.
Col. Hardin with eight companies Of the first
regiment OF Illinois volunteers, came up on
the evening of the 18th. Yesterday he crossed
the river, and will join us in the course Of an
hour. We have been compelled to delay a few
daysto repair our train, ITO wagons, carrying
ffty-hye days r%ations, and to recruit our hor-
SEES and mules, much reduced by a long march,
without anything but prairie grass to feed on
A part Of the train had travelled from La
Vacn, three hundred and thirty miles, without
a days rest. We shall resume our march with
about 1900 men, OH the morning of the 10th
inst, after leaving a company to take charge of
the boats, and the ford Of the Rio Grande, UNI
ill the rear Of my column under the direction
Of Col. Churchill arrives, which is expected in
the course Of ten days.
Unfortunately the quartermoster's depart
ment is without specie. Treasury notes are
Of no use to US, as the Mexicons will take
nothing but gold and silver. With private
means, and borrowing, we shall be able to pay
forhalf rations Of corn during our stay at this
place. Whether | shall be able to succeed us
well at other towns is doubtful. My route to
Chihuahua will be through San Fernando, Santa
Rosa, and perhaps Moncloya. AT Wis point |
will endeavor to open a communication with
Gen, Taylor, which, it would seem, would be
necessary on account Of supplies. AS soon as
the wet season commences, our communities
tons with San Antonio and the Preside will
be, in a great measure, cut of; the route il
many places, independent Of the streams, viii
be impossible. Hence, l will be compelled tt
establish a depot Of supplies at Monclova, o
som other point, in the interior, and on a rout,
leading to Gen. Taylor's Army, or depot o
sup lies. The supplies in the country are Ii
mited. A partial amount Of -four and corn
and full rations of beef, can be obtained.

where is General scott?

We hpve seen it stated in several papers that
Gen. Scott has been ordered to Mexico. The
Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
AMERICAN, On Nov. gath writes that Gen. Scott
and staff have been ordered to Mexico. A
Washington paper Of the 25lh SAYS, Gen Scott
and staff left yesterday for the seat # war;
a Baltimore correspondent Of the National
lntelligencer on The 25th writes, "Gen. Scott
passed through Baltimore yesterday afternoon
on his way north" The New York Journal
Of Commerce says, "Gen. Scott arrived al
Elizabelhtown, New Jersey, en- route Tor some,
where" The Baltimore Patriot Of the 9th
says, Gen. Scott arrived in New York on Wed
nesday evening. We understand he will -e
turn to Washington before his departure Il
Mexico, u he does go there.
