The Galveston News Of the 5th says:

The Galveston News OF the 9Th says
General Lamar has again returned to our city from
visit to Austin Private business understand will
detain him few weeks longer when he will set out on
his mission to South America.
report was some time since put Id circulation 1--WE
believe by the Washington correspondent of the New
York Herad to the effect that General Lamar appoint
ment as minister to the Argentine confederation OPP
posed by Gen. Rusk, and also by Governor Pease and
other officers of the Texas government We author
lied by General Lamar himself to say that such report
was entirely without any foundation He had the most
positive proof that General Rsk was true to him to the
last and he is now equally well assured that neither Gov
Pease any Of the officers of the Texas government
have ever said or done anything whatever to his preu
dice. General Lamar wishes this statement made public
for the purpose of doing justice to the memory of Gene
raj Rusk, well to those other gentlemen whose
names were SO improperly introduced in that published
report
The Matagorda Chronicle says the work of improve
ment of the Colorado river is progressing fyoraby and
adds
We may say that, by the middle of November next
the planters will be enabled to ship the ensuing crop
without any serious obstruction to the navigation of the
river at an ordinary stage of water.
The Houston Telegraph Of the 4th instant has the fol-
lowing in relation to the crops:
Our accounts of the growing crops quite favorable
Picking is actively going all over and with season
of moderate length the aggregate cotton crop of the
State will exceed that of any previous year by many
thousand bales BY this do not to say that our
planters gathering full crop by any 1t will
fall considerably short of that The crop of the two last
years has been short That of this will be
full crop than either of those But the increased amount
put in cultivation in three years together with favorable
in large portion of the State warrant the opn
ion that we give above.
Breadstufs in ample amount have been harvested,
though not in that profuson which will admit of waste
funess. Corn will be worth generally from rs cents to
81 per bushe in the west and say to 60 cents in tho
east, SO far can judge.
The sugar crop is by means full one probably less
than threequarters of average crop good deal of
cane will be used in planting leaving much the less
for the mill

lowing
By the brig Deseo Capt Abra, arrived last evening,
have files of Campeachy papers to the 25th ut three
days later There had been decided action between
the two contending parties of the State who far
as ever however, from amicabe arrangement As to
the actual state of affairs the Campechanos ultra lib
era party had gained further advantages the Merida
pseudo democratic party called and everywhere they
firmly maintained their ground, resolved says the Ep
u Pubico to yield On the other hand, according
to the same authority, the government de taoo
equally firm in their resolution to maintain their authority
at all hazards and preparing for decisive stroke
This doubtless refers to the expedition of Gov Bera
to Campeachy where it is clear everything is prepared to
give them reception The liberals of the island
of Carmen had also united with the revolutionss and
promised them efficient aid and support The next
rival therefore, will doubtless bring exciting news, if
it does not bring the final result of the struggle

ARIZONA COPPER MINES The following
article relative to the mineral resources Of
Arizona, we find in the San Diego Herald,
of July 25th:
We have just had an interview with Col.
Chas ID Preston, manager of the Sonora
Exploring aud Mining Company establish
ed at Tubac. in the Gadsden Purchase, and
extensively engaged in opening and working
silver mines in that vicinity. The parties
engaged in this enterprise have been for the
last four years exploring and investigating
the mineral resources Of Sonora and the
Gadsden Purchase. in which they have ac-
quired mass of valuable information, and
occupied and opened some of the best silver
mines on the American side of the line, the
ores yield upon assay about one dollar to
the pound, and are susceptible of being
worked by the simple process of fusion.
