S@xArE.-I'he resolution heretofore offered
by Mr. Cass for an inquiry into the eXpet'!'ncy

the T. S, from exercising any civil functions,
was taken ~.
The snhiect Was discussed by Mess:s. CaSs.
Pratt and Seward, and laid aside.
The adjustment bill was taken up.
Mr. John Davis, of Mass, concluded his
speech against the bill and in favor Of the Prcsi

established il the territories or excluded. By the

the South, our Senators and Representatives
will be fully justified in refusngto vote supplies

to the great unanimity of our people upon this
question, and their readiness to sustain whatcv-

~ correspondent Of the Galveston News.
writing from San Antonio. says: "The Indians
are committing depredations in the immediate
neighborhood of this city, killing persons within
six or eight miles Of the city, and even nearer,
killing cattle, ETC. The bodies of tw) nen were
found, abou, six miles from the city on the Fred
ricksburg road, the body of one pierced with four
and the other with five arrows, and both were
scalped. A trail was discovered, leading to Puer-
TO Viejo,a pass by which the Indians mostly come
to the city. The Indians are so daring that they
come within mile or n mile and a half ofthe city
shoot cattle and steal horses and mules from the
rancheros situated in the chaparrel and on San
Pedro Creek. Maj. Smith, U. s. A., with a CON-
mand Of about twenty, were sent out to scout, and
returned, after three days, without finding any,
thing. How could they find anything! Of what
use is it to send infantry after Camanches! They
can accomplish nothing in an Indian fight"
