The New Orleans Delta, of the 4th, says
The Marshall Guards and the Star Rifles,
the former from Harrison county, Texas, and
the latter from Caes county, in the same
State, have arrived here In the steamer Texas,
Captain Stinde, en- ronte for Virginia. The
Mar hall Guards are acknowledged to be the
most efficient corps In Eastern Texas, COM
posed of the flower Of the manhood OF Harri-

MISSOURI.
The Jefferson City correspondent Of the St.
Louis Republican, writing on the 2sth ult.,
says:
You are probably aware that a message was
recently received from Gen. Harvey, directed
TO Gen. Price and Gov. Jackson, asking
whether it would be a violation of the COM
pact TO march a regiment through the State 10
some point upon the border, to opera te again /
any invasion from the frontier. This request,
! am informed was politely declined Snch
4 procedure, in the present infianInable sts te
of the public mind, could not fail 10 precipi-
tate revolution and bring war. y OF
course, we have every reason TO believe that
1t was net entertained afterwards. There is
no doubt but that the Black Republicans are
dissatisfied with the aruistice Their object /

the cOurse of the Democrat and the leaders -
Lot them beware.
HINTS ABOUT CAIBo.
The Mobile Tribune learns from a gentle
man just from Iorinth, Miss, that there are
some tWenty-One thousand Iaen under arms
at that place. They were Ia high spirits and
had every soldieTly comfort, especially an
abundance of yegs tables. Gen. Clark, who
| Is in command, was satisfied that these troops
could be- thrown within twenty four hours TO
any point on the border meuaCed by the hire
! Iings at Cairo-many of whom by the way,
were deserving and joining our army. This
force at Corinth, Within forty EIGHT hours, Ii
was understood, could be increased TO nearly
forty thOusaad. SO that there is proba-
hIlity that the scum at Cairo, even though it
be brought up TO eighty thousand-as is stated
| to be the purpQse of a. Lean do much harm
| 10 the border of Kentucky, Tennessee or Mis-
sissippi. We hope that they may march into
| that region. They and the hen -roosts are
| likely to be the only sufferers. The men, we
are certain, Will never return to tIo soil which
may yomit them forth ;or the wicked purpose
| OF subjugatir@ the Confederate States. Their
! dead bodies will manure il, and nothing else
| good will come OF the Invasion.
