FROM THE RIO GRANDE.


By the arrival of the steamship Atlantic last night from
Bazos Santiago we are in receipt of the Brownsville Flag
to the Gath instant The Flag Of that day that
Mr. G. W. McFndin had been killed in manner clouded
with the darkest mystery. He was old resident OF
Brownsville and was employed by the during
the Mexican war in the capacity of wagon-master.
The same paper says:
The recent settlement of the difficulties between Gen.
vdaurr and the general government is already beginning
to be felt advantage this frontier Communication is
again established with the capital and the distant
States and confidence being restored and prospects
in every way fatterng. We may hope 70 see
our commercial intercourse with Deghbors restored to
its former healthfulnessp
The editor of the Flag has been shown letter from
Carrizo the Upper Rio Grande which states that the
Indians taking advantage of the absence of the troops
from that quarter have commenced their old game of
butchery and robbery again. We publish the following
extract from the letter:
"The Indians have been down and stolen oil the horses
on this part of the Rio Grande. They in three
four partes-in all about fifty we have no troops to go
after Them and expect they will bother us greatly.
"At ranch below they killed one man, who is now
hanging in musquit tree. They northern Cuman-
ches-ao says Mexican who has been prisoner with
them some years and who escaped from them about three
years since in this vicinity.
In two instances the Mexcans left their ranches aud
took to the woodshe Indians taking all they possesscd
in the shape of blankets, bedding, &C.
The Flag has additional items from the Upper Rio
Grande in relation to the dcprcdatons Of the indiana in
that quarter This represents the Indians being
emnoes and not Cumanches stated from Carrie. Be
that may they evidently of the present
protected condition Of the frontier settlements and have
taken advantage of this their usual work of
carnage and plumber. Here is the last account
THE Indians attacked Tuesday, the 10th December
