with other powerful medicinal agents, that are

Indians in NeIiea.

Our latest advices from SaltiIlo tpld of a conAa between the Texan Rangers and q band of Camas ches. Upon looking over some late papers fom lh city of Mexico we find several letters from San Is Potosi describing actions between the Indians u Mexican troops The savages had boldly spprossA ed within seventeen leagues of the city of San luA In one engagement the Mexicans had fifty lnianty and thirty drageons engaged. The party was eas pietely cut to pieces, only eight of the dragus escaping with their lives and five of these buz wounded. Another engagement took. place bstwss tho Indians and one hundred dragooRs of the h Regiment of cavalry, which wore marching fn Matehuala to join Gen. Avalos. The fight occH red at MIngole, and the dragoons were complcxs routed, seventy being killed, among whom ws Col. Labastida and several other officers. The Q vivors of this fight at last joined Avalos. In e ter from this general, we have a report of an 4 gagement in which the Mexican arms were m@ successful. With force of about 400 cavalry writes on the 18th of November, that he that men ing attacked a body of from 340 to 370 Indians the hacienda of San Juan del Salado. The aelm began at 5 in the morning and terminated st 2 iuts afternoon, (the date of the generals letterI 0a1 thirty or forty Indians were then left in the iHs for of the hacienda, whom he says il will be neey sary to destroy, as they refuse to surrender az defend themselves savagely. All the rest, he Su perished, the very small number who fled 6ndS escape impossible on account of the difficulty Of s country, the hills, &c. The Mexicans receves two thousand horses, and set at liberty over 1" hundred women and children who had been CT tured. The loss of tho Mexicans was small, ihOes several officers were wounded and Gen. Ayalos B l his horse shot under him.
 It is calculated that in their incursions into ! State of San Luis over four hundred Mexicans hsA been killed, great number of Captives made . numberless atrocities have been committed r

Mr. Di,kinson's Resolutions.

The following resolutions introduced into the Senate of the United States by Mr. Dickinson -ol New York, on the ltth isst., are attracting much attention in political circles at Washington and elsewhere:
 Resolred, That true policy requires the govern ment of the UHited States to strengthen its political and commercial relations upon this continent, by the annexation of such contiguous territory as may eonduee 10 that end. and can be justly obtaned and that neither in such acquisitions in the terr,o- rial organization thereof, can any conditions be eenstitntionally imposed or inxtitations be psos. ded for or established inconsistent with the right of the people thereof, 10 form free sovereign State, with the powers and privileges of the original mem. CTS of the eonfederaey.
 Resosped, That in organizing territorial govern ment in territory belonging to the United States. the principles of self government, upon which our federatve system rests, will be best promoted the tfne spirit and meaning of the constitution be ob served, and the coniederaey strengthened by eav- ing all questions concerning the domestic policy therein to the legislatures chosen by the people theseoE.

At present, the decision is to pay only for those Killed ia battle, and pay has been re- fused under that construction, as 1 understand, for horses lost even in batie unless it is proved they were killed in battle.

Death of Chancellor Kent.

His long bie hadSsa devoted to the law, and in various capacities sP& the bench he had served the State, til at the age 60 he reached the term assigned by the consutaoa for the close of his official career It was asi isS that he turned his miad to the prepafaioR ol S Commentaries upon American Law, in whea 2 erected the most towering and enduring monansE to his fame.

The Commitiec on Territorirs.

The Committee on Territories, the Wash ington correspondent of the Charleston Courier, is to be a very important committee. The propo- siiion of the President to establish permanent ter ritoriai government over large part of Mexico will go to that committee. The aati-slavery proviso will come from that committee, if from any con- mittee.
 The committee on Territories, at the last session though it was democratic, reported the Oregon bill with a prosiso excluding slavery. This bill was, on account of the provso, lost in the Senate Aft@f being banded about for while by different com mitees it finally fell into the hands the Judiciary Committee, which was anti-proviso, and there il slumbers still.
 Besides the new States to be carved out of Mexi- co, the Committee on Territories will doubtless pro- pose four new territorial governments in present limits, viz: Nebraska, west of Missouri: Itaska, north ot Wisconsin; Minnesota, west of Wisconsin i; and another territory running up to the extreme north western boundary. There are four States with eight Senators ready, in few years, to come into the Union as a non -saveholding States.
 There are even more coming than M- Calhoun dreamed of last winter It is highly probable that the northern part of Texas may also be ultimately formed into a non slaseholding State. The cast of the Committee on Territories in both Houses will be regarded with interest.

AZTEC,
News from Mexico.

Our correspondence, brought over by the British steamer Tevoit will be found very interesting The dates from the City late the 14th, and from Vera Cruz of Dec. l6.
 We have also Vera Cruz papers to the 18th, but they contain not much of any importance.
 We have a number O! interesting letters from "Mus.ang." which weshall publish to morrow. The one in to-day paper s full of interesting detaiis In another letter pained 10 read of the death of Dr. Slade, surgeon of the army, who resided in this city, and was much esteemed here and in the army. We also notice the death of Daniel Murphy, celebrated Texan spy. Mustang states that MT. Trst has deferred his departure, though he had ceived his recall IL is said that he had already en- tered upon a negotiation with the Mexican Com missioner sent from Qneretaro and Mustang thinks it not improbable that he may yet conclude a satis factory peace.
 The following items are gathered from late num- bers of the Rainbow;
 It is rumored that letters have been received in the city, dated Mexico 4th inst, and Puebla 9th, stating that the division of the American army that had started from Mexico to IOuca has been routed at Ilano Grande. ~
 Yesterday morning, about o'clock, It commen- ced blowing the most furious northern which we have experienced this winter. Three schooners went ashoIe-among them, the schooner Dove from Tampico, which had arrived here few days ago in distress.
 The Mexican Government has called on the Gems Canalizo, Alcorta aud Lombardn to give them com
 
 missions in the new army. This measure has been highly aisapproved by the Monitor Republicano, which states that these officers either for cowardice or want of capacity, have bee already unworthy of having troops under thir orders. This Journal counts for nothing the wounds that Lombardni re- ceived at La Angostura, and says that even the sacrifice of fourteen lives could now bring them bac the honor and reputation that they have irre,Tieva bly, lost.
 l The citizens of Potos gave dinner to Genera Mnon. While they were at table, gentleman got up from his scat and made toast to the General followed by short piece of poetly intended te raize up his energy and courage. Minon replied to this compliment by saying that he had fought fol the independence in 1891, but in lsl7 he had mad, | up his mind to die for it.
