evening from Galveston, whence che sailed on the 22d
instant.
The legislative proceedings at Austin are not OF sui-
Gent interest 10 detan US In the Houston Telegraph

WAR BETWEEN THE DELAwAREs AND cAMANCHEs.
We learn from gentleman who recently arrived from
Bexsr that bloody battle fought few weeks since
between a party of Camsncbes and small hun ting
party OF Deawarer in which the latter were
with the loss of twenty five thirty warriors 1t APP
pears that the Deawares have bsen encroach
Jog upon the hunting grounds Of the Camanches and
they remarkably ssilful hunters they have de-
sroyed immense numbers of buffalo and deer, and game
has become scarce in some portions Of the Canaan
che country that the Indians compelled to feed
horsss and mules The Csmspches have also become
with the Deawares be they have sided
tween them and the Indian tribes of Texas The
OF large number Of the Delaware warriors will
DOUBTLESS excite the whole nation TO their los
snd we may expect that fierce Indian war will soon
rage along our borders The Delswares have but few
IN Texas and at muster scarcely 900
warriors here; but they easily induce hundreds Of
warriors joio them cir settlements Neee ur
and 1t Is probabi. that the Shawnese will make
osuse with them against the Camsnches. The Della
wares and Shawpeee are better supplied with firearms
sud expert in their Than the Csmsncbes and
quite probable that thsy will drive the latter from
lugs portion Of their hunting grounds II the
War should become general.
