The Indians committing depredations on
the frontiers.-of Texas. They recently made a
descent upon the town of San Ignacio, killing
several of the Inhabitants and carrying off large
amount of booty. Capt. Newton, I'd Dragons
while scouting with small command, near the
North Fork of the Neuces, suddenly came upon
about 200 Lipans. He charged the enemy
killing three or four aud wounding several others;
the Indians returned the fire without effect, and
then retreated, leaving one man, nineteen wo-
men and children, and about one hundred and
fifty head of horses and mules in the hands OF the
u, S. troops.

Congressional Districts.

The subioined staten ent, which we have pre-
barred with much care, shows the official vote at
the last Presidential election, in the several dis
riots as arranged in the bill lately submitted by
the Committee on Apportionment. Mr. Tomlin
has presented another plan which we have al
ready published, aud Mr. Garrett, of Hal flax, has
presented a third, which will be found below
The reader can easily ascertain the relative
strength of parties in the various districts de.

the figures given in our detailed statement.
1t will be seen that the Committees report

Gratis ten We have no idea that the Democratic
majority in the Legislature will adopt any such
arrangement. Experience has shown that it is
possible SO to gerrymander the State as to leave
the Wing party only one representative in Con-
gress. Under these circumstances it would be
folly to anticipate the success Of any scheme al
lowing us a Target number. 1t is some consola-
ton. however, to know, that in endeavoring to
appropriate every thing to themselves, the De-
mDcracy must necessarily run the risk Of losing

nsut ascending in many districts. Inordinats
and grasping cupidity not unfrequenty defeats
its own ends.
Z We presume that many other plans will be
offered in addition to those which publish
to-day. Each Congressional aspirant in the Le-
gisIature, we suppose, has prolet of his own.
cut and dried in his pocket. All of these will
soc the light in due time. when we may expect
fierce aud determined struggle between the. va
1ious rival cliques. Of the one hundred and
twenty-five Democrats in the General Assembly,
we imagine that not less than one hundred are
looking forward to Congressional honors, and
very naturally desire TO shape their respective
distrctsi in such way as to advance their own
political prospects. 1t is wonder, therefore,
that this subject of arranging the districts has
perpexed our opponents for the last six months,
and that the problem should be as far from
solution now as it has ever been.

GEN. PIERCE reached Washington on Monday
evening last, at half past o'clock, in the mai
train from Baltimore. The Mayor of Washington
went to the depot to receive him, but the General
passed unrecognised, and posted off to Wizards
hotel, where he is now domiciliated.
Hon. Geo. NJ. Dallas and Gov. Marcy are
also in Washington. The presence of the form
er gentleman has somewhat disarranged the cal
cuatons OF the cabinet max ers. many of whom
now think that Mr. Dallas may be invited to take
charge of the Department of State. Gov. Mar
cy appeared in the Senate on Monday and at
