From the st Louis Republican.
cry Il tie fro nm . a nta Fee.

A letter from Mr. N. CoLBURN, our cor.
respondent at Santa Fe, announces his
arrival at Independence. in this State, on
Thursday last, in tweniy.four and half
days from Santa Fe. This Journey eclip.
ses in speed any other ever performed
between the two points. and shows that
very soon it will be stripped of even the
character Of novelty. From the letter of
Mr. Colburn. we gather many facts of in.
terest TO our readers, which are here ar.
ranged.
MIR Colburn left Santa Fe on the Sd of
August. There were then only $50 Mex.
leans soldiers stationed in Santa Fe, bu,
the authorities stated that they had 1000
men ready to march at a moments warn
ing to meet Gen. Kearney, and 1000
were expected from the lower country
How far this expectation may be realized
may be judged Of from the fact. that Mr.
Kennedy, who had just arrived from So.
nora, reported that they had there only
300 soldiers, 900 at Chihuahua, and 40
a, Ell Passo.
When Mr. G. left Santa Fe,nothing had
been heard of Gen. Kearney's movements
for fifteen days previous. 1t was not then
known that General Wool was moving
against Chihuahua. About 200 miles on
his route home; he met with eight Mexi.
can Dragons who had been watching the
movements of the American forces under
Gen. kearney. They said they had no,
seen the troops, although they had been

there met Captain Worcester, of the U.

From this party, he heard Of the murder.

The editor of the Keosauqua Democra

The editor of the Keosauqua Democra,
abuses Messrs Howell and Mitchell, who
as sworn clerks rejected the votes Of Ap,
panooce county as illegal. The law re.
quires that the votes shall be certified by
the clerk and two justices of the peace Of
the county. The returns from Appanooce
were not so certified, and on that account
they were rejected. Shepard, editor Of
the Democrat, was candidate for the
Council. If the votes of Appanooce had
been counted he would have been declared
legally elected. But as they were not, Mr.
Wright. wing, had majority. In view
Of the circumstances, Mr. Wright unhesi.
ta'ingly and magnanimously resigned
Would loco foco have done so! Not
withstanding all this, Sheppard abuses
Howell and Mitchell because they are
wings. Now, why do loco foco editors
abuse wings, while in the performance Of
their duty' Why do not Wings deal in
the same kind OF language against their
opponents! We know of no other reason
than that one acts from the principle and
code laid down for the conduct Of gentle
men, while the other, Ieaping all bounds
Of propriety, is governed by the code Of
low and vulgar blackguardism. If wing
editors will cease to notice the personal
abuse aimed a. them by blackguards, the
latter will soon find their level in society.
We have adopted this course TO consider
able advantage.
Burlington hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington, Iowa) 1845-185?, 1846-09-10

We understand that on Thursday or
Friday last, as four gentlemen in coach
and one on horseback were travelling
from Fort Madison 10 Keokuk, they were
met by party Of Mormons. who had
been to Keokuk for the purpose of OBJ.
tanning arms and ammunition that had
been ordered from St Louis and which
they expected TO find on some of the boats.
These Mormons were all heavily armed
with "seven shooters" They stopped
the carriage and without any provocation
threatened the lives of the gentlemen
held their guns to their faces-snapped
them-and used very insulting and abu.
sive language. The gentleman on horse.
back made his escape arrived at Keokuk
and gave the alarm. About so armed men
mounted their horses as soon as possible,
but before they reached Montrose, these
Mormons had crossed the river.
