News from Texas.

The New Orleans Picoyune contains
rather sad news Of the prosperity of Tex
as. 1t says, "What may, perhaps, be
considered the chief item refers to the an
nouncemen. that great fears are entertain
ed of a great portion of the country be-
ing afflicted by famine. The harvest in
Durango and other departments of the
interior, it would appear, if it has not al
together failed, has afforded such extrem-
ely scanty returns, that the papers are la
menting most bitterly the calamities which
cannot but follow the unfortunate failure.
The rest of the intelligence is of the or
dinary character. The Indians are COM
mitting terrible ravages, and with even
something more than impunity The
mail and large company were lately at
tackled by them, and some ten or twelve
persons were killed, others carried off, the
rest scattered in flight, and the mules and
all other property plundered.
Robberies by others are also as fire.

Of two robbers whom they had observed,
a third in company with them was subse-
quently slaughtered by the wretches."
