Latest from Texas.


The steamship Galveston, which arrived last
night from the port Of thss name, furnishes us with
Galveston papers Of the 2Oth and 2lst, and the Rio
Grande Sentinel, published at Brownsville, of the
18th inst
The Galveston papers have nothing OF public
interest," save the account Of the efforts of the Gal
weston and Brazos Navigation Company to COM
plete the Brazos Canal.
The Rio Grande Sentinel presents this deplora-
BILE view
"THE ENEMY.-By the arrival of the steamer
Camanche, from Rio Grande City and Roma, we
learn that the, Indians are again at their work OF
death and robbery in the valley. A gentleman
who came passenger the boat informs us that
the planters all along the river are in the greatest
alarm, caused by the Indians having killed and
wounded party Of herdsmen, near the river, be-
tween this place and Camp Ringgold Those who
had families on this side Of the river have removed
them to the other, that they might escape the but
too well-known horrors that accompany tho visits
OF the Indians and seeking that protection among
our neighbors which they have failed to find with
u.s."
The merchants of Roma, Starr, county, Texas,
have published their vet0 of the practice Of pedders
and tinerant retailers of odds and ends" who
sell goods to the people there at 20 per cent below
NewOrleans prices from which they suppose that
they are embezzled They have, by the same pub
lie instrument, essentially put their veto on all
peddling done by steamboat captains.
These Starr county folks want to shine with
their own lustre.

Floating DOCK at Pensacola.

The Pensacola Gazette of the 22d, gives this
glowing description of the launch of the Floating
Balance Dock just constructed there:
The launch of this stupendous structure took
place at our Navy Yard on Wednesday, the 18th
instant. The day was propiIious, the skies clear,
and the air that which is peculiar to the legitimate
Florida weather. At an early hour, the sound OF
some hundreds of hammers gave token that prppa.
ratlons for the launch were commenced Row
alter row of the props OF the immense mass were
felled with almc4t military regularity and precision,
until hafpast IL CLOCK, when the signal was given
to cut away. The tlmbers, about fifteen BY five

parted by those who knew how to do such things

Passing by St. Patricks yesterday, our attention
was attracted to white freestone monument, on
which are carved many military emblems. On
stopping to examine it more carefully, we learned
it intended to be placed the grave of those
who fell at the Alamo. The rock was taken from
the walls of the Alamo. 1t was chisselled on the
spot, by an English and German artist, who
had fought in the battles of Texas and who, after
the virtual peace which followed the battle of San
Jacinto, spent several months in this pious labor
1t was purchased by the Republic; but the artists
claimed the privilege of exhibiting it in the United
States. 1t was brought here, but it did not prove
attractive. The artists had no money, and it was
actually sold for the charges of exhibition. For
several years il has been lying among the rubbish
Of marble yard. OF course It'll valuable only as
local monument, and we trust the citizens of San
Antonio will pay fair price for it, and return it to
its proper locality.
The monument is of white freestone, composed
Of pedestal, on which rests an obelisk. On two
sides of the pedestal are escucheons containing
the names of the soldiers, while those of Bowie
Bonham, Crockett and Travis are inscribed, ON the
upper lines.
The faces Of the obelisk have these inscriptions,
in alto relieve, arranged in the usual urn like form
Upon the East side of the obelisk is Inscribed,
in raised characters:
To the God of the Fearless and Free is dedicated this
Altar, made from the ruins Of the Alamo
Upon the South side is the following inscription
had none. - ~ ~
Upon the West side is the following:
Dead" " ~
Upon the North side is the following
Blood OF Heroes hath stained let the Stones of the
Alamo speak, that their lnmolation be forgotten

this delightful summering place are bes,rripp
themselves to render it more attractive. MANY Of
them are now improving the front of their property
by planting shade trees. making banquettes, etc.
Property holders are awaking TO the propriety of
