CALiPoRS!A EaIGRANTs.--'A tram oil "
wagons, with fifteen OF twenty families from
California, passed through town on Monday
bound for this and adjoining counties. lhey
started on the 18th Of March, and have tray-
ellctl every day, having found grass and wa
ter very scarce over great portion of the
route. They seem to be very dcsierablc i'm
migronts-lhen of energy and means, and
well pleased with the country which they
think far preferable toCalif6Tnia. Among
the families we heard the names of Lowrie,
Noble. Brown and Carsou-two of the broth
ers of the celebrated Kit Carson being in
the company. In one family there were cle-
ven children. All the company were in good
health and spirits, and true southern men.
They report having met several companies
of Unionists, boEld for California, and
abusing Texas. These disaffcctcd persons,
they fear, are making great pecuniary
sacrifice for their principles. After q very
severe and laborious journey they, will ar
rive stnngcrs in country where 1t is fan
more difficult than in Texas, to. procure TIC
neccssarics of life. suTering must consc-
oucntly be the consequence. NO Indians
were seen on the route, although the COM
pany buried several Americans who had
been recently killed by them. large
