FROM The New Orleans Flcayune, NO
THE ESCAPE or GENERAL WALKER.

We doubt not we write that Walker is again upon
the wave and rolling towards victory, orsomethng not
quite pleasant In Nicaragua The fact that General
Walker had given bonds in the of 81 900 appear
before the United States court matter of course had
no effect upon his movements, and understand that
he left yesterday with the advance guard first division
Of his army with the view Of falling in with the trans
ports somewhere in Lake Bognc and at once proceeding
Everything appears to have been well conducted
and the effort to stop the expedition has resulted like all
previous similar ones-in smoke
The following communication from member of the
expedition received by this morning and contains
we believe all the information the subject Of the de-
parture which is of any interest at present
EpITons PIcaYrSY: Before this reaches you General
Walker will have left the United States his way back
Nicaragua with the first division Of emgrants This
division will number about three hundled and fifty men,
two hundred OF whom left New Orleans. Of this
number there are over thirty ofcers and who
with General Walker In Nicaragua The officers are as
follows
Aids to the General Major j. V. Hoof and Captain A.
Brady.
Assistant Surgeon General DIR. Kellum.
Colonels-Erank P. Anderson, Bruno Natzmer, Thos
Henry.
Lieut. Colonels--s It. Tucker, A. Swingle
Captains--C. Fayssoux and s. Kennedy, Inasy y j.
s. West j. " Cook B. +. Whittier McChesney.
Iieutenants- A. Rhea McMichael, r. G. Stoke
ly, Winn.
Civil Oficers-F Belclier, Jacob Colmus
Soldiers and Citizens Charles Brogan, John Tabor,
editor Ncrag,,ss) Fred. Romer, John Rutter, j. NJ
West M Cayanaugh, r. ". G. Richards, w. H. Hunter
John Yates, Tom Moore.
There were number of others who have been in Mica
rspua but could not recolect them when huniedly
looking over the list Of names Many others who
were anxious return with General Walker TO Nicaragua
have been disappointed by not knowing certain when he
would leave.
Col. Anderson, Major Hooa, Capt Kennedy Charles
Brogan and Jacob Comus among the original fifty
six who left San Francisco with Gen Walker in 1855 in
the brig Vesta
The present force be considered rather small by
some to effect landing but predict that it win be
found equal to the duty assigned it, Gen. Walker goes
out with merely the advance guard, to effect landing
and make sianding point.

ANNUAL MESSAGE OF THE GoyERNoR OF TEXAS.

ANNUAL MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF TEXAS.
The annual message of the governor of that State
10 the Legislature which assembled at Austin on tho
% instant, gives very favorable account Of the
condition of affairs in that prosperous State.
The assessed value of taxable property in tho State
was. IN 1856 sl6l ,ls4 ,47s; upon which there was
an al uaoreni tax Of fifteen cents the $780, the
croduct was s2i2, ,ss6 IS. In 1857 the assessment
was sls35s4, ,205 and the product s276,s0l "a.
This with the poll-tax and tho revenue from taxes
onmerchandise and occupations, is sufficient to pay
tbe ordinary expenditure Of the State, including APP
uropriatons for the insane asylum, the asylums for
tbs deaf and dumb and the blind. and the peniten-
tiary There Is in the treasury after tho payment Of
al appropriations cash surplus Of about SI60000,
There is an increase Of expenditure anticipated for
he next two years from increase IN the Judiciary
districts and certain other payments assumed by the
State. The governors plan is to reduce the rate Of
,anation and supply the deficiency out Of the sur
plus in the treasury for two years, anticipating that
the increase Of the value Of taxable property will,
aster that time raise the revenue to sufficient
amount for the support of government
The governor recommends that the State should,
out Of the surplus of tho last Texas-debt fund, re-
turned to Texas by the United States pay to old
creditors of Texas the difference between the amount
which they received under the act Of Congress and
that at which their debts rated and classified at
the Texas treasury. =
The governor regrets that the aid thus given is not
more effective in helping forward the railroad enter
prises Of the State Ii is not sufficient to buy iron,
and BY creating first mortgage obstruc the negoti-
stion of ether loans.
The governor proposes the passage Of an act to
take the sense of the voters the expediency of
calling convention to amend the State constitution.
In the concluding passages of the message he re-
rs to the relations Of Texas and the southern States
generally, to the federal government and the free
States, in which he seems think the aspects Of the
subject decidedly improved He speaks, also, in
terms of high euiogy Of the late Gen. Rusk, and
closes with rendering his gratitude to the people Of
the State for the evidences he has received Of their
confidence.
