posed of bankers and it is said, Senator's and their
abettors, are getting, have already got the con-
troll of this immense claim, and will attempt to
force it through Congress at the next session.
These SPECTATORS, we understand, have had their
agents at work in Oregon, buying up the different
claims against the Government, based on the most
ertraragant rates for few cents on dollar. The
facts before u.s. we think, will enable us to show up
this whole matter in its true colors, and expose one
of the greatest attempts to deplete Uncle Sam 3

would find considerable falling off in his receipts

The Central Georgian of Sept. 1st., says:
We continue to hear some complaint from our
planters that the cotton crop is very much injured
bv the rust. Some, however, do not think the in
iurv arises from the rust, but from some other
cause which we have not learned. The corn crops
are much better than we have known them to be
for several years. and farmers have ceased, in
a great degree, to complain, as heretofore, about
shortness of the crop: but each one seems to
claim the credit of making more corn than his
neighbor. We pleased to see them in such fine
spirits. There is yet large quautity of old corn

MINERALS IN TExAs.-The Western Terot says
that travellers report that between San Antonio
and Ell Paso there almost literally mountains OF
iron in some places; and by building fires beside
the rocks the pure ore will melt and run down IN
puddles. In many places there are silver mines
that were deserted years ago by the Spaniards, and
large bouders relied into the shaft-intendng, ct
course, to return when they could be protected
from the Indians but these mines have never since
been opened.
