The yellow fever was still prevailing at Gal

Col. I. j. Allen, one of the proprietors of
the Journal, died of yellow fever in Galveston
on the 7th.
There seems to be an abatement in the fever
at Houston. The Telegraph, of the 7th inst
says:
There were but four deaths in all from this
disease on Wednesday and Thursday, and we
have heard Of none since up to the hour of
going to press
Mr.. Charles Merlin, an old residen. of Hous.
ton, formerly keeper of the Alabama House,
in that city, was found dead in his bed on the
morning Of the 9Th inst. tS|0.f
We learn from the Telegraph that the
weather was remarkably fine at Houston, the
nights almost cool enough for frost
The same paper has the following:
Major Emory was daily expected at San
Antonio, at last dates, en- route to the Mesilla
valley. A part of company A, from Fort
Belknap, had arrived at Austin, and was
awaiting orders to 60 to San Antonio, to be-
come tho escort of Major E. on the expedi-

Der of Northern. Comanches are gathered
around Fort Chadbourne, who, from the fee
bleness of the garrison, are emboldened to
commit outrages. The troops are on the alert
to guard against attack.
1t is reported in Western Texas that several
hundred deserters from the Mexican army
have crossed the Rio Grande, and are now
scattering themselves throughout different Sec
tons of the frontie r of Texas

sented to be very abundant this season.
Intelligence has been received from Fort
Clarke, of fight, on the 9Th of September,
some eight miles from the fort, between a
body Of Comanches and sLipans. The Lipaps
were victorious, and took horses as booty, most
Of them American horses, supposed to have
been stolen from the lower country.
