How TO FRIGHTEN Doc. 1t is said that
the 6ercest mastif is terrified at The appearance
OF naked man, and burglars have often made
oil this arti6ce to AVOID detection by the vigil
liant watch dog. A writer in the last number of
the N. E. Magazine says that once when about

dog whined pteously when he had stripped to

the city OF Pernambuco was the scene OF blood
conflict between the government party and the
troops of the line and the liberal or the Santa
Luzia party, in which the latter lost between
seven and eight hundred men in killed and pris-
oners. The liberals were totally defeated, alter
thirteen hours hard fighting, in which, howev-
er, they displayed both determination and cour.
age. The chief instigator of the revolt, Nunez
Machado, was shot dead at the commencement
OF the assault. The emperor came down from
Petropolis, and Immediately dissolved the cham
bers The great object on the part OF the Santa
Luzia party appears to be to expel the Portu-
guese from the country.

day, the last market day, when fifty head chang.

should be noted however, that both buyers aud
sellers seem little inclined to give publicity to
their proceedings. From this reason the reports
must be necessarily inaccurate and imperfect.

at the shambles this morning, that SIX females
were taken, young and likely, at an average OF
hve hundred dollars head for the Southern

remainder from the Express sc The Polk Adj
mnistration undertook to uphold the demand OF
Texas. To support Texas in herintended usur.
patton, new Military Department was created,
covering the Valley of the Rio Grande, with
Santa Fe for head quarters. Gen. Worth was
placed in command of the department, with or.
ders or directions, expressed understood, it is
said, to render such assistance to the authorities
OF Texas as should be necessary to her nnder-
taking OF asserting her Jurisdiction over the whole
country The necessity for some efficient aid
was imminent, as Texas had pretended to erect
Judicial District, including Santa Fe, and an
pointed Judge, who was on his way to enter
upon his duties, and no aid was to be expected
from Col. Washington, the Military Governor of
New Mexico. Worth would of course rank
him, and the cause of Texas had quite pros.
porous aspect when Gen. Taylor came into the
Presidential chair. In order to defeat the scheme
OF Polk & Co., the military department has been
subdivided, a understand, and Gen Worth
has been ordered to the command OF the South.
