A correspondent of the Express writes from
Puerto Cabello, Oct. 4, as follows:
The fleet of Gen. Monagas has returned TO
this port, after having made ridiculous demon
STATIONS, al or near the Island Of Margarita. BY
all accounts il appears that thew came up with,
or overhauled the Constitutional squadron off
the above Island, but refused to give battle,
which was on two distinct occasions offered to
them, and permitted the Constitutio mails to pro-
coed quietly on their way to the Lake Of Mara
caibO. Thus il is that decision has been de-
layed to future day from the want of proper
energy on both sides.
new commander Of the Monagas feet has
been appointed, and it is said will leave again for
Maracaibo some time during the present week
TO enforce the blockade Of that place, and pos
sibly attack theopposng squadron, should they
muster the requisite courage for the underta-
king-a matter much doubted
Gen. PaeZ is now at the Island Of Curacao

Constitution in the interior Of this country who
have manifested unanimous desire to aid in
the cause Of order and liberty.

Fresas Texas.

The New Orleans editors are In receipt Of la
ter advces from Texas. The papers are filled
with accounts of murders interpretations CON-
mitted by the Indians on the frontier. This is
ascribed to the disbanding of large portion Of
the Rangers by the Government without sup
plying their places. The Indians, it 10 stated
were appraised of the exposed condition Of the
frontier by Mexican emissaries.
The Houston Democrat says that the Cover.
nor will Immediately authorize the raising Of a
sufficient force to guard this frontier and chas-
Use the marauders, until such time as the Gen.
eral Government shall condescend to furnish ad-
equste protection.
The Civilian Of the Goth saysthat Capt. Hal
pin, Of Galveston, who arrived there by the
Star, from the Brazos and came through from
Hscatecas to Brazos Santiago by land, reports

all possible precautions to preserve the internal

Disaifection is stated TO be wide spread, not
only in the provinces, but in the capital, A dis
interested party writes TO the Arco Iris, from the
capital, that indications of rebellion continue,
and the best informed persons there believe, that
complete change will, in the end, take place
IN the present order Of things. All classes seem
Disguised with the government, which owes its
existence solely to the terror inspired by the Mn
lster Of War, and the money which ithas now at
It's disposal. Once the millions of the indemn-
ty are gone, it is certain that revolution will,
forthwith, break out. The papers at the capital
are daily filled with alarming Iumors Of revolt
which If they are not verified at the appointed
time, are sufficient to keep the government and
the population IN a continued state of uneasi-
ness.

The water celebration in Boston on the 25th
ult. attracted thither an immense throng Of
strangers, 10 carry whom the railroads were put
ia full requisition. The number Of passengers
carried over the Eastern railroad on the 24th,
25th, and Goth ult., was II 200. On the Wor-
cester railroad, for the same three days, every
thing in the shape Of railroad car was crowded
with passengers.
The receipts on the railroad from Sandusky
to Sprnfield, Ohio, are reported to be $4,000
per day. The road cost little over million
OF dollars.
The Boston Courier says formal arrange
meni has been made by the Reading and Schuyl-
kill Companies signed not only by the presidents
of the respective companies, but by number of
the largest bond aud shareholders, at the re-
quest of the canal company, to make assurance
doubly sure. The canal agrees in future to
charge 75c toll per ton, and the railroad 81 IS
instead of 81 IS, az at present. The statement
made in the New York papers that one-third Of
the tonnage is guaranteed to the canal, is not
correct; each line will enjoy the benefit of its
own receipts.
The N. Y. Express says the progress of the
New York and Erie railroad is such that no de-
lay can take place in the opening TO BiDghamp-
ton upon the LIST Of January. The only thing
which could have caused delay was a want Of
iron-a want abundantly supplied by the arri-
walls of yesterday. A large number Of contracts

ors are already in town to close up and receive
