Arrival of the Caravan from Red River.

The annual caravan from Red river
reached this place last evening. Our old
townsman,a Chas. Cavalier, Esq, late
Collector of Pembina, was one Of the train,
and to him we are indebted for the follow
ing details:
The caravan consists of one hundred and
thirty-three carts, thirty two of which be-
long to the Selkirk Settlement, on the Bril-
fish side ofthe line, land the balance to r.,
Kittsan, Rolette, Gingras, Cavalier, and
others residing at Grand Cote, Pembina,
&c., on the American side. They left Grand
Cote OH the 18th day of June, and reached
Traverse des Sioux, on the Minnesota river
on Sunday last, having occupied thirty-two
days in making the trip. From Traverse
des Sioux they came down on board the
Clarion. On the route they saw a great
many buffalo, and killed as many as they
needed. They crossed Gov. Stevens trail
en- route, and fell in with portion of his
party. The Governor was progressing
slowly, owing to the bad condition of his
teams, and it was thought that, unless the
hunters were successful, the party would
soon incur scarcity of provisions.
The traders and hunters at Red river
have been unusually successful during
the past season. The caravan brings some
six hundred bales of furs and skins and
were obliged to leave large quantity be-
hind.
Rt. Rev. Provoncier, the Catholic Bishop
at Red river, died few days before the
train left.
The business on Red river, on the Am
erican side Of the line, is mostly becoming
concentrated at Grand Cote, about thirty
miles west of the old settlement of Pembina,
and four or five miles south of the British
line, and Mr.. C. thinks that it will finally
absorb the greater part of the settlers on the
British side. The residents there have
engaged quite extensively in farming, and the
soil is found to be exceedingly productive.
M. Cavalier intends to return with the train,
which starts in the course of ten or twelve
days, and engage in the rearing of stock at
Grand Cote.

More Cotton and More Land.

Gen. JOHN WILSON, who is well known
to many of our citizens, and now resides in
San Francisco, has written to Gov. Foote.
of Mississippi, about group of islands in
the Pacific, known as the Navigator's ISL
ands. With the letter, Gen. Wilson sends
TO Gov. Foote some pickings of cotton, taken
from one of the cotton trees which grow on
those islands. This tree attains tine extra
ordinary height of thirty feet, with diane
ter of one foot, and branches spreading
thirty feet. The boil is about the size Of a
goose egg. When the cotton tree is in full
bloom, it presents superb appearance,
looking like an immense snow.b ball tree, of
the kind that adorns so many of our gar
dens.
The islands are on the route from Califor-
MIA to Australia, about midway between this
last and the Sandwich Islands, lying in
about Ia degrees south. They are ten in
number, have an agreeable climate, and are
inhabited by about 100000 savages, divided
into tribes who are often fighting each other.
Gen. Wilson throws out hint for spec
ulaiion there. Says he:
If one or two hundred discreet, just men
were there, and join in some of their wars
with the better sort, or class, government
might easily be established there, after the
fashion ofthe Sandwich Islands.
Where is England and Mrs. Stowe2 They
have been in search of new cotton country
and can supply our old friend, Wilson, with
"two hundred discrset and just men" to
foment quarrels among the Navigators, and
get them to eat each other up for the ben
eft of the new comers.--[Intelligsncer.

The Board of Instruction is fully organised, and

Applications for boarding scholars had TO be denied

entrust the education Of their daughters 10 its
care. From small class Of fifteen voung ladies',
in 1910, it has regularly increased from wear to
year, until the last term showed an attendance or
nearly ten times that number. lis pupils and graz
duates may be found in every section Of this State
and in many of the neighboring States. whilst its
best friends are amongst those who have been its
regular patrons for the last five or len years.
a few additional boarding scholars can be re.
ceived, if early application is made. The schol-

From the Santa Fe Gazette.
The Silver Mines.


The gentleman 10 whom the following
letter was directed, has permitted us 10 pub
lish as much as relates TO the extraordinary
silver mines in the Organas mountains, in
the county of Donna Ana, some fifty miles
above Ell Paso. The writer of the letter,
Mr.. Banjaman F. Read, was until latterly, a
resident of Santa Fe, and is here well
known as man OF veracity. His state
ments may be implicitly relied upon. 1t
will be perceived that the specimen Of medi-
um quality marked No. 2, yields from $32 to
$4S,to the cargo or mule load, which weighs
300 pounds;that is, from 10 TO 16 per cent. Of
pure silver. The better quality of ore
gives the remarkable yield of from l6 to 81
dollars to the l00-pounds. We have had
information from other sources, confrmato-
ny of the statement of Mr.. Read, and we
hesitate not to say, that making every allow
ance for the increase of rumor by travelling
and the unintentional coloring that attaches
TO news, enough is known TO justify the
prediction that New Mexico must, in time,
become as remarkable for its mineral wealth
as Peru and Mexico have ,been in former
days. But to the letter:
LAS Cruces, IN. NJ. May s, 1853.
DEAR SrR:--I send you by Mr.. Daily
some specimens of silver ore from the mines
about fifteen miles west of this place. They
are numbered one, two, three, in the order
Of their richness. No. has not been tried
as yet, but 1 think it contains gold as well as
silver. No. 2 yields from four to six marks
of silver to the load of 300 lbs-No. 3 from
six TO eight marks to the load A mark is
eight dollars. The Mexicans that are work.
ing the mines and smelling here, have the
rudest sort of tools and furnances, and I
think lose about twenty per cent. of the
silver in smelling and refining. In No. 3
you will find two small pieces of silver
The mines extend some forty miles north
and south in range of mountains and all
of the ore crops out on the surface of the
ground, and can be obtained with but little
labor.
This place is improving very fast, as
house lots can be got by application to the
Project, his fees being small for recording
the name. l am much pleased with Las
Crucus. BEN. F. READ.
