Texas Intelligence.

The report of Maj. Van Dorns fight with Indians
on the Concho turns out untrue The Major was
in San Antonio on the 4th inst.
The Indians have again been committing depre-
dations on the Frio, and on the 2st ult murdered
Mr. John Davenport in Uvalde county cores
spondcnt of the Herald thus relates the affair."
Mr.. Davenport had been absent from home and
was returning by the E Paso road, and when
within about two miles of home, was attacked by
party of Indians, who were there crossing quite
a large drove of horses, stolen from the lower
Sabnal settlement. This occurred about 3 o'clock
p. NJ. From the indications it would appear that
six Indians had left the herd, dashed down upon
Mr. Davenport as lie was passing along, and pierced
him with arrows until he fell from his mule and
occurred in open daylight, and upon the principal
thoroughfare in Texas, and at the same time it was
not mile either way from the bloody scene to
teams travelling upon the road.
In Gods name, are we all to be butchercd in
cold blood.
The Herald says, i'll addition;
1t il also supposed that they have killed the old
man Boils, as his shoes and drawers have been
found twenty-five miles from where he was proba-
bly, killed on the trail by those who were in pur-
suit. He has now been absent four days. The
Doctor also informs us that forty-five men are now
in pursuit Of the Indians, nine soldiers under the
command Of Lieutenant Hazen and thirtysix of
the citizens. As the Doctor passed the vicinity of
'huSt tle pepplt EcpoTtcu ndFlnB seen
five Indians in that neighborhood.
The Betoa Independent thinks the frontier line
has been extended too far for safety, and says:
1t pains the heart to know that the extreme from
tier must again become heartf-stone of silence,
and surrendered to the rowing Comanches. Braver
men than the frontersmen of Texas never lived
but that will not save the precious lives of their
families. Hence the policy Of moving into the set
Elements for protection.
Let determination be the watclword in regard to
the Red Man in Texas, and let it not cease to sound
until the whole of Texas is left free and untramcl-
ed by barbarons foe, that can do naught but re-
tard and injure the progress of the Americans.

heightened out and varied to suit the different parts
of the poem, it was the same as an oratorio; and
none needed time whilst the music lasted. Several
of the singers who sung solos, and one lady in par

with all the force, precision and melody for which
Germans are renowned, all the world over. 1t was

PARsoS BRowNLow SrEAKs.-Pars0n Brownlow
improves the occasion of the Brown rebellion to
attack his old antagonist Parson Pryne, to whom
he addresses long letter. Mr.. Pryne, having de-
clared that he had personally assisted Brown to
buy rifles for use in Kansas, the Parson retorts
upon him as follows: 4 zls5aSas.
The cowardice of absconding and leaving ssplo-
rious Old John Brown to help himself, also s1ita
you. Add to this your challenge to me Of last
month, dated at Williamson, N. Y, to renew the
debate on slavery-which was intended to throw
us off our guard as to your whereabouts it Il
clear to my mind that you were in this movement.
And until you prove where you were on the 18th.
18th and 18th days of October 1859, shall regard
you as one of the murderous and cowardly hypo-
critics in the Harper's Ferry nsurrection under q
false and assumed name.
Brownow concludes his letter in the following
| strain:
honestly believe you have been at Harper's
Ferry in person, and inglorionsly fed when danger
stared you in the face. II you were not there IN
person, your letters to GLORIOUS Old John Brown
are in the possession of Coy Wise showing that
you were aiding and abetting in this murderous
work. l hope the letters will be published. and
that requsition will be made upon the New York
Governor for you Should you be brought to Vir-
ginia and hung, it will be curious fact. If Il am
there, and present on the scaold to administer Ia
you, in your dying agonies the consultations Of the

IMPORTANT TO PERSONS WHO HAVE APPLIED FOR
STATE LANDs--under rule which the Register of
the Land Office has found it necessary to adopt,
says the Baton Rouge Gazette of the sth inst. ap-
plicants to enter State land must be ready when
their applications come up to take the land they
have applied for lose their place ON the list and
apply anew at the bottom of the same. This is a
great disadvantage to applicants, as their chance
to get what they ask for is materially lessened :
but the rule is good one and operates to the ad-
vantage Of the people and the disadvantage of
spectators. If some such rule had not been
adopted by the Register, dealer in lands in the
northern part of the State might have come here
and made application for several entire townships,
and after getting maps of the same, have gone
back home and opened private land office, selling
out at his leisure, and getting the patents from
headquarters in the name of each customer as
wanted. When the million of acres of State land
came into the market under the act of 80 in May
last the applications to enter were very numerous
and have been daily increasing since that time. So
heavy is the work of the office now on hand that
an application to enter land to-day will hardly be
reached in regular course before the month of
January next

New YORK, Nov. l0.-The steamship City of Bal
timore, Captain Leitch, arrived at this port this
morning.
She left Liverpool on Wednesday, the 26th ult.,
and touched at Queenstown on the following day,
bringing one day later advices by telegraph from
Liverpool and London, than were received by the
North American and Vanderbilt.
The loss of the Australian steamship Royal
Charter off Bangor, the coast of Wales, is fully
confirmed.
The steamer went ashore in terrible gale,
which ragged all along the coast, and nearly four
hundred persons persisted.
The ship England, bound from Liverpool for
New Orleans, encountered the severe gale which
proved disastrous to the ill-fated Royal Charter
and in attempting to put into Holyhead got aground
in the harbor.
The steamship Great Eastern, which was an
chored in the harbor of Holyhcad, rode out the
gale admirably. There is no prospect of hel
making transatlantic voyage this season.
Adyces from Turin and Naples represent thu
state of affairs as growing more and more serious

the provisional army of Central Italy, was consid

SHOCKING FATALITY-In the N. Y. Tribune of
the 5th we find the following
On Thursday night Mr.. Charles Lambert Ger
man butcher at Clifton, Staten Island, was burned
to death in consequence of camphene explosion.
Lamberts wife also nearly lost her life by the acc
dent. 1t appears that Mr.. Lambert was beaten on
Thursday by some Staten Island rowdies, who
struck him with stone, in consequence of which
he was sick in bed at the time the disaster oc-
cured. In the course of the night Mrs. Lambert
rose to light camphene lamp, and when she was
filling the lamp with camphene, which was done
very imprudenty while the wick was lighted, the
camphene exploded, and Mrs. Lambert's dress
caught fire and she was almost Immediately envel-
oped in flames. At this instant Mr.. Lambert
rushed out of the bed and attempted to extnguisll
the fire to save Mrs. Lambert from being burned to
death. In doing so his night-clothes took fire, and
he was himself almost instantly burned to death.
His wife lies in horribly disfgured condition.

rom Leavenworth says:
The Overland Express with Denver City dates to

$1,000 in gold dust on consignment, and $23 900 in
the hands of passengers.
The weather continued unusally favorable in the

An election had been held for officers under the
Provisional Government but the result was not
definitely known. Steele, for Governor had ma
jority as far as ascertained.
Efforts We're being made to induce the people to
participate in the election for delegate to Con-
gress from Kansas, which takes place on the sth
inst. The project, however, is opposed by the
local papers. which argue in favor of nonnter-
ventions in Kansas affairs, having but recently
elected delegate of their own, who is expected
to urge the immediate organization of the Territory
of jefferson.

The lRREPREssIBLE CoNFLIcT.,' - Giddines,
speech on the Ten Million Bill will bear quotation
now, in view of the attempted servile war at Har-
per's Ferry. Giddings' followers have pretended
to deny that he ever uttered sentiments SO atroci-
GUS as the following, but the denial is mere hair
splitting qnibble as to the meaning of language
which no one can misunderstood. Here is what he
said:
LOOK forward to the day when there shall be a
servile lnsurrection in the South when the black
man. armed with British bayonets and led on BY
British officers, shall assert his freedom and wage
war of determination against his master: when the
torch of the ncendiary shall light up the towns and
cities OF the South and blot out the last vesge Of
slavery. And though / may not mock at their
calamity nor laugh when their fear cometh vet I
wi hail it as the dawn of political Millennium.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.-A series of experiments
and improvements have b en- made on the ma
chincry of the United States stcam-frgate Niagara
since that vessels return from the Atlantic Gable
and "A African Philanthropic" expedition. The
latest of these improvements has just been COM
pleted, and its successful working was demon
strated yesterday by Chief Engineer Ring. This
consists of the attachment to the reversing gear of
new cylinder that will start and stop the engines
by steam, instead of the old method by hand As
this innovation is of considerable Importance, it
will doubtless be extensively used. Mr.. Ring is
making quite a revolution in the old time-worn
machinery of the Navy Yard. For a number of
years eleven steam boilers have been making
steam for nine engines, and eyaporating only about
four or five pounds of water to pound of coal.
These are to be removed and replaced by new ones
the construction of which will soon commence, The
latter will all be placed in one boiler house, with
steam pipes leading to the different engines and to
suit buildings as need heating by steam. From
seven hundred to eight hundred tons of coal can
be thus saved annually without ever running the
risk of tre-as the boiler houses are intended to be
freproof-which is at present so imminent

RowDYIsM IN THE ST. BERNARD MARKET.-Alex-

the st. Bernard market, lin the back part of the
Third District0 where he sells coffee, fruit and
fried fish, day and night, has made the following
complaint to Recorder Long: That at IL o'clock on
Sunday night last he visited in the market by
crowdof about fifteen persons, who helped them
selves to what they wanted, destroyed his fixtures
and what he had left, and shot at hinl-some COM
ing up with pistols in their hands, and others with
knives. Mossich stated that the men were un-
known to him. We have it from one source, that
the crowd were Independent Americans = trying
10 create SUBURBAN terror, to operate to their
advantage on election day. From another source
we have it, that the party was headed by some
rivals of Mossich in the market, who took advan-
tage of the prevalent political excitement to wreak
| their personal vengeance.

PRIsoNER's ErIoUETrE.--A curious case Of
prison etiquette recently occurred in Delaware A
number of prisoners broke jail, and among them
was one named Turner, under sentence Of death for
rape. He called upon the Attorney General, coolly
seated himself in his Office and informed the gentle-
man that number of prisoners had escaped
eng them himself; that he was prepared to 10
back again whenever he could be assured that hs
would be safe in SO doing. Several of his social
companions had been discharged, and in their
stead a woman had been placed in jail who was
afflicted thscarlet fever; he had formally notified
the deputy sheriff that such conduct was persisted
in he would feel obliged to change his quarters,
and that receiving no satisfactory evidence on the
part of the officers of the jail that his grievances
would receive attention. he had thus availed him
self of the first favorable opportunity of giving
practical turn to his indignation by leaving the
premises. He did not care straw about the SEN
tence of death hanging over him, but he didn't
want to catch the scarlet fever. The escaped
prisoner was escorted back to his quarters

Weather and Crops.

The North Louisiana Baptist of the Sd has the
following:
On last Saturday and Sunday mornings there
was frost enough to kill tender vegetation in the
open fields. Cotton leaves are killed, but the
bolls little injured. Indeed cotton is generally
benefited by the frost
The weather is now dry. Save your potatoes
before it rains and sobs them. They will be sweeter
and keep better.
The Claiborne Advocate of the I'd says:
The weather here during the past week, as
general thing, has been COOL bright and pleasant.
Several white frosts have occurred in the time and
vegetation of every character around us bears the
appearance of the change of seasons.
The Minden Monitor of the 4th has the follow
ing:
We had several days the past week quite cool,
bracing weather, with frost two or three mornings.
1t is likely that frost just now will njure the late
cotton crop; but it will matter but little, doubt
less, as we believe farmers are making fully
as much as they can save From all we can learn,
our three parishes -Benville, Bossier and Clai.
borne-are yielding this season splendid crops,
both of corn and cotton.
The Central Organ of Saturday says:
The weather has been very pleasant for the past
week-leaving the dust ont of consideration. We
have had Jack Frost with us for several nights.
We feel confident now that there is no danger of
yellow fever in Marksville.
