TExAs-INDIAN troubles The Dallas
Herald has exciting news from the frontier.
A letter dated Montague, Dec. 18th, says:
"The Indians, in large bodies. are collect
ing at the mouth of Farmers Creek. on Red
River, and dancing war dances, and Ne are
satisfied that they are dancing over the
scalps that were taken in Jack and Parker.
The Shawnees, Caddoes, Kickapoos, and
other tribes are together, and they have two
large droves of horses (AmeFcan) that they
have stolen; and that is not all-they arc
stealing daily from our citizens. The people
of Clay have all come to this place, and we
are well assured that this is a move of the
Abolitonists and Indians together to over
come Texas. Come to our rescue, and that
in haste"

WHAT THE PosIrIoN OF MAJ. ANDERSON WAS
IN FoUr MouLTRIE.-The following, bearing
date December 24th at Fort Moultrie, is from
a private letter to a gentleman in New York,
written by Major Anderson
DEc 24-When inform you that my gar
rison consists of only sixty effective men, and
that we are in very Indifferent work, the
walls of which are only fourteen feet high,
and that we have within one hundred and
sixty yards of our walls, sand hills which
command our work. and which afford admir-
able sites for batteries, and the finest covers
for sharp shooters, and that besides this,
there are numerous houses, some of them
within pistol shot, you will at once see that il
attacked in force, headed by any one but a
simpleton, there is scarce a possibility of our
being able to hold out long enough to enable
our friends to come to our succor
Trusting that God will not desert us in our
hour of trial, am sincerely yours,

In the opinion of the South Carolina dis
unionists Major Anderson committed a great
outrage against them in abandoning Fort
Moultrie, and occupying Fort Sumpter. Now
as both these forts belong to the Federal Gov
ernment, it could be no business the people
of South Carolina which of them was occu-
pied by Federal troops 1t could be no busi-
ness of theirs, under any law of right. The
fact of the matter is, they wanted TO man
Fort Sumter themselves, and take Fort Moul-
trie and Major Andersons command also. -
They were toiled, and hence their rage
