Fort Pickens.

On Friday Gen. Bragg had all the plan,
necessary laid for taking Pickens. Senti-
nels of Slemmer are said to have been brib-
cd UP to his gates. "Nemo," alias Mat
thews, correspondent of the Pensacola OBJ
server, betrayed the plan informed the feet
and fort, and frustrated the movement. The
fort was reinforced that night. Gen. Bragg
spy stood upon the beach, and counted IS
men as they defled from the surf boats of
the Brooklyn into the fort.
1t was officially announced at the head
quarters Of the Colonies of each regiment
on Saturday that Gen. Bragg would have
taken Piekens the night before, perhaps
without the loss of O man or the firing of a
gun, had il not been for the treachery of
friend in whom he had confidence for years.

St0ckdale for G0ycrnOr.

We have frequently of late heard tho
name Of the Hon F. S. Stockdale of CAL
houn County mentioned in connection with
the approaching canvass for Governor of
this State. A kcntuckian by birth and
education, lie has fc + many years devoted
the flower and vigor Of his manhood to the
service of Texas, where his stirring elo-
quencc and commanding talents have made
for him name, that the best may well
envy. The distinguished position that his
friends seem willing to assign him, has
not been sought with assiduity by him,
nor accepted with indecent haste, when
rendered to him. We do not know even
that Mr.. Stockdalc has ever conferred Will
his friends upon this subject, but we know
that his unobtrusivc and manly dignity
his lofty patriotism and repugnance to Of
fee hunting, would preclude anything like
forestalling public sentiment by any active
efforts of himself or his friends. He will
abide the action of the Convention and
most assurcdly will his name be promi-
ncntly before that body.
We make these remarks because we have
been frequently requested by many
friends in various parts of the State 10
saw that Hon. F. S. Stockdalc of Calhoun,
will be supported warmly for the Office OF
Governor, subject however to the State
Convention of the friends Of the Confcder-
L. tn1.l
We speak by authority when we say that
Mr.. Stockdalc will receive n decided ana
heavy support throughout the State. HIS
position in the Senate, and his sterling
worth eptitle him TO the consideration OF
the whole people of Texas.

On the other hand, our whole extent of

who shed so much lustrc upon our coHqucsts

Southcrners or men with strong Southern
feelings. No great name with national
reputation remains among them' unless we
except that of Gen. Wool.
Scott, Bragg, Twiggs, the Lees, Van Dorm,

The steamship Matagorda, from Berwick
Bay via Sabine Pass Monday arrived off
the Bar this afternoon about o'clock. A
pilot boa went out, took off her mails and
the mail agent, and the steamer returned
the way she came.
We learn by this arrival that the steam
ship Charles Morgan, which left New Or
leans on Sunday, on reaching the Pass-a-
IOutre found it closed, by order of the
Governor, and she had to return to New
Orleans.
1t is rumored that several war vessels
had been seen together about thirteen miles
from the Pass, and hence, it is supposed,
the sudden closing of the only Pass left open
by the State Government.
The prize steamship Star of the West
with the so Galveston volunteers aboard,
under Capt. Van Buren,, arrived below New
Orleans early on Saturday evening last.
On passing Fort jackson, a salute was fred
