attacked with very severe pain in the lower part
OF the abdomen, which lasted but a few minutes
ana moved into the left hip and continued exceed
ingiy painful for about five days, during which time
had very light fever; at the end Of that time the
FEVER ceased and the pain abated for day or two,
alter which it again returned and was much worse
than before. During all this time was under med
zeal treatment. From short time after was taxi

the pain was so bad commenced rising until some
time in January when it burst and number of ME-
ceS OF bone came Out--aS many as twenty at least.
Some OF the pieces were three-fourths of an inch
long. Some time after this hard knot appeared on
my right hip, also one my right wrist and one on
my leg. below the knee. ! continued to get weak
and worse, and = pain made its appearance in nv

Now, when we consider what was the de-

| Texas papers have been received TO the 9th
| instant. From the San Antonio Western 1erar.
| we learn that five wagons Ga portion of Lewis
and Coons' train) were attacked between the
| two principal crossings of DEVILS river, near
the California Springs, ON the l7th ult., by about
one hundred mounted Indians and small party
| on foot. AT the time the attack was made these
wagons We're few miles in advance the main
| body, returning To San Antonio. Four men
| We're killed and three wounded. The names of
the killed We're Nicholas Andreas, a German d,
Chas. Pavonsky, native of Poland, and Viii
liam Brown and Peter Logan, Americans.
The Indians, after killing the men, plundered
the wagons of whatever they contained, cloth
ing of the men, provisions, &c. They then
unyoked and drove off the oxen, thirty in num-
Der. The Indians were principally Canaan
ches and Lipans, with some Seminoles and
Keechies. They were we'll supplied with
rifles, and used no other weapons against those
killed and wounded by them. The party with
the wagons, numbering fifteen persons, made
no resistance-there being very little ammuni-
ton or arms in their possession at the time of
party never reached it, being killed it was
supposed by the savages.
The same journal contains information of an
ARRAY between Parker Fl. French and portion
of those composing his party at Carlites, a small
mining town in Mexico, about two hundred
miles from Ell Paso. At that point some of
Frenchs party determined on separating from
him, and proceeded to take possession of some
of the mules claimed by French, the opposite
party surprising their right to them to be as
good or better than French's, and they being,
for aught we know to the contrary correct in
their views. French refused to yield up the
animals; the others seized them, when French
and some Of his friends fired upon them. A grand
row then ensued in which French's right arm
was completely shattered, and one of his adhe-
rents, Mr.. Harris, that formerly carried ex-
presses from San Antonio to Ell Paso, was
killed. Mr. Stephenson, formerly school
teacher in San Antonio, was killed, on the side
of the party opposed to French. Several were
wounded on both sides, whose names We're not
learned. On the termination of the row, French
remained in possession of the spois.
An immense emigration is represented to be
pouring into Texas.

The Word depot

writer in the Christian Register says:
at is a cause of thankfulness that the superin,
tendents of railroads have done what they could
to Danish that oftentimes mispronounced word
depot, and to substitute the good English word
station
We contribute our share of thanks to the
railroad managers for this change. In Eng
land they designate the place where passen-
gers on railroads enter and leave the cars as a
terminus; in France as an enlbarcadere, Ga
point of embarcation and landing but station,
though derived from the Latin, has the merit
over all of these of being natwaHsed for
eigner. 1t is to be hoped that since the French
man, Mr.. Depot, has been banished from the
railroads, his brother, Mr.. Entrep6t, will be
excluded from mercantile affairs. We think
plain warehouse or mart equally good, and more
distinctive in their respective meanings.
