Il hive Just received your letter, and
am little surprised that you did not send
me a statement from Mr.. Daggy or Mr.
Petro, as suggested TO you. have heard
from some friends in Mr. Wilson's dis
trict that you were there at the election
and consequently could not have voted for
me, but rs Mr.. White says you are in
needy circumstances, send you the on

SCHUYLER COLFAX.
The Laporte Times says. 1t was Mr.
Schiller who was employed to import vo
ters into this and the eighth districts, to
carry the election
What the "stotemsnt' was, referred TO in
Colfax's Letter to Schiller, we are unable to
say. but it is generally believed that it re-
lated to the number of illegal voters
Schiller mad procured for Colfax, and the
cost attending the infamous plot.
The Times adds: This Schiller lives ut
San Pierre, Siarke county, and will proba-
bly, be employed by Mr. Colfax to import
voters tbs year, after which he will proba-
bly, send him the enclosed ---not for eiec-
ttoneering. but rs a little relief for a friend
in distrss''
Certain facts have been developed with
al few days, which plainly show that
this scheme eli Mr. Celfsx to import lille
gal voters, and by the free use of money
defeat the Democrats. is only part Of an
extensive Plot extending over this, and
other States in tho Union. The detection
Of Colfax in his corrupt scheme, has
astonished and disguised many honorable
Republicans, while others Of that party
highly applaud the villainv, and declare
that the Democracy must be defeated,
Even L it were as pure as the Angels in
Heaven"
1t will avail Mr.. Colfax nothing to say
that he has been made Escape goat"
to bear the sins that other prominent Re-
publicans have also been guilty of---neilh-
er will his denial enable him to rid him
self Of the infamy 'ofan act. (which would
disgrace San Francisco, even in her
palmiest days of "Ballot-box Stuffiing.")

Texas intelligence.

From the San Antonio Ledger, of the 17th we ex-
tract the following
We observed the arrival in town. yesterday OF
large quantity Of silver bullion from the mines of
Santa Rosa in Chihuahua. The silver is worth here
about 20 per ounce, and was purchased by Messrs
Vance Brother of our city. It is said to contain
nine hundred and ninety-eight one thousandths az
pure silver. By the by, the vehicle which brought
the silver from Mexico was quite an original in its
way and if seen in the streets of New York, might
be considered worthy of place in Barnnm's Museum
The cart was formed entirely Of wood and raw hide
There was not nail or piece Of iron in the whole
concern and the wheels entirely of wood looked as
# IN days of yore they had done good service to
Jolly old Aztec.
It's rumored in town that proposition has been
made to the Governor of Texas, by General Yidaurri
to restore the runaway negroes at present in Mexico
He wishes first to ascertain how much per head he
will be allowed for delivering them this side the Rio
Grande. The funds Of the defeated General are
scarce and he would adopt this hod of replensh-
ing his Golfers to enable him to carry on the war
we regret much to learn that it is supposed that
ir jackson, Of the firm of Jackson Sharpe, of this
city has been murdered. Mr.. Jackson left here some
time since with quantity Of goods for the npcountry
He at Fort McKayett on the 9Th inst and left the
post about shutdown for his camp the opposite side
Of the San Saba river. About eleven o'clock the
same night he left the camp, and had not since been
seen or heard of. When the person who brought the
intelligence to town, left Fort MGKaVett parties were
preparing to drag the San Saba river. As Mr.. jack
son was known TO have large sum in gold, besides
bills, on his person, it IL thought that he was muir
dered, and his body thrown into the river.
The San Antonio Texan, Of the 18th, says:
During the last two weeks quite large amount Of
cotton has passed through our city for Mexico. This
is the commencement of new epoch in Western
Texas and one that will greatly increase.
large Manufacturing Company has lately started
in New Braunels, for the making OF the Coarser cot
ton fabrics. They already engaged in the further
ence of the matter
The Austin Intelligencer of the 18th, says
The driver of the Houston stage brought the intel
gence that Tom Middleton, the notorious desperate,
was escorted to Bastrop bya strong guard yesterday
and was to be hung this morning.
The Falls Herald of the 10Th, says:
We learn from private letter than an engagement
vas expected to have come off on the 9th inst, be
tween Capt. Palmer's company of Cavalry, and
band of zoe Camanches, encamped some forty miles
beyond Camp Cooper. We have no particulars, but
may hear from the scene probably by the Belknap
