MURDER OF LIZ CROZET.


CAMARGo Feb. 8, lS47. Viewer all thrown
into utter confusion yesterday by the sudden dis
appearance OF I'd Lieut.. Alfred Crozet, of the 9Th
Regiment of Iniatry. Parties were Immediately
sent out in all directions, and the most diligent
search was made in the town and about the sub
urbs. This morning his body was found about
two miles from the town, horribly mutlated and
it was with great difficulty that he was recogn-
zed by his friends. 1t was supposed that he went
out to ride for exercise, and that he was murdered
and robbed by some of the numerous Rancheros,
who intest the surrounding country.

Chief, who promises to become as notorious as
Conaes has recently sprung up in the vicinity of
this place. His name is Pauline, and he has I'M

the double business of fighting for their country
and stealing for themselves. few days since
man named Donuelly went out near Preteo to
purchase mules for the quartermaster, and fell in
with these men twice before returning. The
first time he was inside house eating when
three OF the band came up to the door with lance
in hand Donnelly jumped up from the table,
and with repeating pistol shot two ofthem down
when the third made off He then started from
Tampico, but before proceeding three miles was
again attacked. The superior bottom of his horse
saved him, but two Mexcans whoaHere with him
were overtaken and killed There is not road
leading from this place to any point, but Pauline
has portion OF his band stationed upon it.

Mnls,. Routs to ,ns Pacific. ''''

FOR the transportation OF government stores to Santa
re- anu 10 our possessions on the Pacific ocean, safer
ana more expeditions route will be found to be by the
ko Grande IN place OF the present by the Missouri
rlver Steamboats, now ascend with ease this river 10
Larda 700 miles above the Gulf of Mexico has been
proved IN years past, and, during the last year by
steamboat expedition up this river by General Patter
SON and at 100 miles higher up where General Wool
crossed, the town of Preside de Rio Grande the
depth OF water % feet; and this depth continues al
the way up to the city OF Albuquerque within day or
two's travel OF Santa Fe and from this neighborhood
has been ascerained that the distance overland the
navigabe waters of the Gulf of California he Rio Colo
rado,) is but 200 miles, which would bring you to the
waters of the Pacific and to the ports of Guayms Monte
rey, San Francisco Astoria &c. Thus, through the
dunn of this route little land travel will be necessary, not
exceeding 400 miles, (by leaving the river lower down.
and through well settled region, where provisions, COAL
&c are plenty, and danger from the attack of In
dams, What difference this would make, both on
the ground OF expense and safety OF transportation,
as well as OF time, TO the government In connexon
with this route very important improvement in trans
hitting government dispatches may be introduced-vz
the magnetic etegraph-by which could convey and
receive intelligence from Pacific possessions
weeks, each way! This is no visionary scheme; for,
before two years shall eapse the telegraph will be com
peted to New Orleans; from thence ii would be convey
ed by steamboat down the Gulf of Mexico and up the
R!o Grande to suitable point on the same, where line
OF telegraph OF about 400 miles, would reach the
of the Gulf of California, from whence it would be
transmitted by steamboat to the different ports on the
coast.
From these considerations this route commends itself
to the government for the facilities it offers of
MIXING time and the public business, in this direction
and the safety of this route will cause the tide of m
grafton to set IN with it, that Oregon territory
will early TEEN with intelligent and industrious popu
laon, and with whom may have almost weekly
communication, as this region will be brought as near TO
by of this system of steam and electricity as
Boston less than half century ago Who shall set
limits TO the power and utility OF these agents of commu
nication The cost OF executing thousand miles of
telegraph would not exceed half million of dollars and
four hundred miles of distance but two hundred
thousand dollars What engine for good is this agent
for the country and the government should not lose
moment to accomplish the work. M.

The Illinois Convention. now in session at Sprn gied,
unanimously adopted the following resolutions on the
10Th instant
Whereas this convention has just been informed that the
bodies of Lieuts Edward f. Fletcher, Laurston Robbins,
and Rodney Ferguson of the Aton Guards second regi
of Illinois volunteers, who fell upon the bloody field
of Buena VISTA while nobly sustaining the honor of their
country have reached Alton and that they will be inferred
in that city Wednesday, the 2Is inst, with funeral hon.
and whereas, this convention believing that it is right
and proper for them the noble and patr-
deeds and virtues of those who have gorouy alen
in the service of their country: be it therefore
Rs9iued, That this convention deeply sympahlse with

The New York Courier, however, declares, that though
is willing to support the war; cannot "appove of the
foes and wckedness of the INSCRIPTIONS and unprinc
pied President and Secreary'-language which surely is
in itself calculated to give little aid and comfort to
the enemy. But while they (he President and Secre-
tary) ask no favors of the Courier" they have a
right to ask for common justice. They have right
to protest against the justice OF the charge of their
sending men to conquer Mexico, whom they well
knew must be discharged almost Immediately upon
their arrival, under political decision made for base
political purposes" This is not the fact nor is it
a truth that they 'arrested by these discharges, our
march upon the capital, and attempted to negotiate
a peace at very improper moment, rather than let
Scott conquer peace" For it was not they who dis
charged them AS little is it true that they "sent

of Gen. Scott and thus virtually supersede him." Nor is
correct to say that is the fault of the Executive that
the army of Gen Scott exposed to extreme Cor to
any ha=a,d for want of the necessary renforcements
Congress did not pass the ten regiment bill when the
public service demanded it, and if any delay has taken
place in the subsequent marching and arrival of the
troops let it be attributed to the elements and nevita-
BILE causes, and not to the administration.
And now we will make fair compromise with the
"Ceurier" in its future course. 1t pledges itself to
