FRoM TExAs.-We gather the following items
Of news from the Houston Star Of the 5th:
Col HAYs.-We regret to learn that no intelli-
gence has been received from Col hays and his
little band Of adventures since DIR. Sturges and his
party left them on the banks of the Puerco We
understand that several Of the friends of Col Hays
are quite alarmed that no further news has been re-
ceiyed from him. as it was expected that runner
would be sent IN as as he reached the Mexican
settlements ON the Rio Grande. They still trust
however that his indomitable courage will triumph
over every obstacle, and that he will cut his way
through the savage hordes should they attempt to
impede his progress.
PAYING 0FF.-Maj. Coffee, U. S. Paymaster, is
now at Austin, busily engaged in paying off the
Ranging Companies.
DRAGooNs.-The companies of Dragons which
started from this city few weeks since, have
arrived at Austin, and are soon to be stationed on
the frontier. Two companies Of Infantry were en-
camped near Austin on the Dist ult.
CoTToN PIcKlNG.-We learn from Judge Lips
comb, that the fosts have not yet injured the cotton
to such a degree in the undulating region about
Independence and Washington, as TO prevent the
planters from continuing to gather their crop
Many Of them planted larger number OF acres than
their hands could gather in the ordinary picking
of Mississippi and Alabama and they find that they
have gained nearly a third more profit by this
means. The picking season is SO much longer in
Texas than in those States, that each hand can
make two or three more bales here. 1t is well
ascertained that in ordinary seasons here the cot
ton-pickng may continue until January, and some
times until the second or third week in January,
while In most of the cotton-growing States of the
Union the heavy frosts destroy the crops totally by
the middle Of November or first of December

FROM CALIFORNIA.

On Wednesday last small party arri-
sed in this place from California, bringing
with them large quantities of the Feather
river gold dust, portion of which was as
sayed by chemist of our town, and pro-
nounced pure gold. This company state
that the gold fever had not abated, but was
raging to considerable extent, and that
large parties were daily arriving from Or
egon and other quarters to work the mines.
The mines produce an abundant yield, the
ore ranging from the smallest particles 10
pieces of two. six and ten ounces in weight
One piece has been found weighing up
wards of one pound and half Several
ounces have been purchased in this place,
and examined by persons who profess 10
be Judges. and all agree in the opinion thar
it is the "pure stuff" If the specimen we
have seen is from Feather river, we have no
hesitation in saying that the Feather river
gold mine" is no humbug.
We might add, in connexion with this;
that few weeks ago we published an arti-
Gle from the "New York Sum-" stating that
the Feather river gold dust was nothing but
mica, and that the whole story was set
afloat for the purpose of encouraging emf
grafton to California. The reverse, how
ever, is supposed to be the case, and that
the mica" story was published by set of
spectators in New York, in order to check
emigration until they could enter the land
and monopolse the trade.
We would advise those who wish TO sat-
isfy themselves of the quality of the gold TO
call at the store of Messrs. Smith & Bed
ford, where they can see specimens.-St.
Joseph Gazette, Gath.

MISSISSIPPI AND ALABAMA.

81 MISSISSIPPI AND ALABAMA.
These are the only two States about
which there seems TO exist any doubts, as
to their vote. A Telegraphic dispatch
from Memphis, dated the Oath, states that
Mississippi has gone for Taylor, by ma
jority of 20 votes.
The last accounts from Alabama, gave
hopes that Taylor would ge. the vote Of
that State. ..
The maiorities in both States either way,
will be small, and until full returns are re-.
ceived, it will be impossible to know the
result. We hope by next week to be able
to give the majorties in all the States.--
Since the result was certainly known, no
one has paid much attention to particulars;
the wings have been jollifying and the To-
cos weeping.

TAYLOR,S CABINET.

The papers are discussing the subject of
Gen. Taylor's Cabinet, and specializing as
to who will be Secretary of State, Treas
ury, War, Navy, and Post Master Gener-
al. Crittenden, of Kentucky, Lawrence,
of Massachusetts, Evans, of Maine, Clay
ton, of Delaware, Smith, of Connecticut,
Stewart, Of Pennsylvania, and many 9th
ers, are named, in connection with some Of
the stations.
There is no harm in all this speculation,
but it is as likely to do harm as good; for
we are quite sure General Taylor will form
his Cabinet, just to suit his own notions,
irrespective of suggestions, public or pri-
vate. We feel equally sure that it will be
one of the purest, if not ablest, that has
been assembled at Washington, for many
administrations back. He has an ample
range for selection, and as close an OBJ
server of men and things as he has ever
proven himself, warrants the belief that
his selections will be such as will place the
different Departments of Government in
pure and able hands; and whether he finds
such men among the host of prominent
names which have long been before the
country or in the more retired walks Of
life, will matter but little with him.
Among all the suggestions we have
seen, (and the Missouri press has not been
backward) we have not yet noticed the
name of Missourian mentioned. Have
we not men among US worthy of some OF
these distinguished posts? Where are our
BATES, GEYERs, LEoNARDs, ROLLINS, DON.
IPHANs, and many others, equally merito'
rious and distinguished! Missouri has new.
er yet been honored by such an appoint
ment, yet she is not inferior in talent and
other recommendations, to many States
which have been, or are proposed to be
thus honored.
