The Mckinney Messenger has heard it reported
that gold mines have lately been discovered some
forty or fifty miles above that place on Red river.
They are reported to be the old Spanish diggings
which have been hunted for for the last ten years.
| correspondent of the Galveston News write o
letter from Gainesville, Cooke county, under date Of
the 9th Of July, from which we extract the follow
ing:
Several of our citizens have just come in from the
gold diggins, below the mouth Of the Little Wichita
| There has t,en found few particles as large es
grains Of corn, but It's mostly in small particles.
Every one is as yet ripping and tearing around. But
few go right into steady digging and washing There
are near thousand pei there already. Provis-
ions are plenty In this and adjoining counties-four

they are working; but it will require crushers and
machinery to get it out. They have opened some Of
the old holes used by the Mexicans and Indians
10 to 100 years ago when these mines were worked,
| and found an abundance of mining tools, etc. Ellis
Beam of whom you an account in the History Of
Texas" always insisted there wcs rich gold dig

years SINCE He had to visit that region Of country
with his command from Nacogdoches to rscCUer t,ro
pieces brass cannon captured by the Indians at the
time they drove the Mexicans from the mines.
They then passed to the westward, and on Sunday
morning, about o'clock, ten or fifteen of them
watsred their horses at the Medina in front of the
town of Bandera, and were seen by Mr.. Bird. On
Sunday morning they were followed and seen several
times by the citizens in pursuit; at three o'clock in
the evening they killed Joseph BUSHNELL on or near
the banks Of the Hondo creek, and pared thence
west, followed by the citizens. They Killed great
many cattle. The inhabitants are much alarmed, as
the Indians appear to be determined to do all the
damage they can, instead Of combining their operations
to stealing as formerly.
From the San Antorio Herald Of the cath We ex.
tract the following:
By the arrival Of Mr.. David Monroe, lest Tuesday
evening, from Bandera, we have this information
That on Thursday night foul teen Indians made =
forsy in Kerr county, killing fifteen horses belonging
to Mr.. Cock, living above the Balconies.
About fifteen holSes at Lanes rancho, on the
Medina, are ms-ing, and it is supposed that they
have tsen stolen by the Indians, they, the Jndans
had separated before Sunday morning.
Mr. Cock is paying men two dollars per day to fol-
low and capture them if possible.

sboishing TIE duties on articles Of raw produce Oh
which French industry is In want and winch cannot
be produced In the country or can % secured more

This topic suggests an idea which hes doubtless

generally believed to be both the chronic and the
acute enemy Of England, may settle down upon q
plan Of systematically devoting all the immense
power to the end which be controls to attacking her
in manner more likely to prove permanently i1juri'
ous than il he marshalled all his ornaments to war
against her. while at the time he would not ex'
haust his own realm but rather advance it's substan-
tial progress. He could array the arts Of peace
rather than thoee Of war against her, and what ee
ments Of success has be at commando he has vest

A MYSTERY OF THE PAsT.-An immense cata-
comb can be seen at Rothwell, in the interior of
England, near the direct route from Liverpool to
London. 1t is an immense vault built of masonry,
under church which dates back apparently for its
first erection to about the year ll50, and contains
the skeletons Of 10000 men, probably warriors of
great size, piled up in regular order, that skulls
and large bones only appear on the outaide of the
piles The skulls show marks Of spear and Ratchet,
but no gunshot wounds, and their owners probably
fell in mOita conflict anterior to the invention of
gunpoWder. The vault was discovered by accident
l6o years ago. and has connection with the church
as far as known in fact the mystery is that there is
no historical evidence traditonary legend which
throws the least light upon the obscurity of its
ton. No anatomist, historian ethnologist antigua
