the direction OF the federal government, viii bo made in
Texas Recent intelligence from the East shows that
some 26oo or oC0 United States troops have boon cut
Of in that State Our Information is That Il has been de-
termned TO send reinfocements 70 the fugtiyes and
that tho departure Of United States soldiers from
Oregon Washington Territory and the more recent
sudden with iraw Of companies stationed In the northern
districts OF this State, movements made In compliance
with orders received from Washington. Is intended,
understand to raiee regiments Of volunteers In
San Francisco Sacramento md Marysville who will be
forwarded from this port with three OF United
