ryoores, d ne siege Of 1rasamoras.


4 New ORLEANS, Oct 20.
Matamoras adVices state that no serious as
sault has been made by Liberal forces. Mejia
had 1900 well armed troops, and he is assisted
by a force Of citizens mostly foreigners, to de-
fend the place. Cortinas is in Drownville.-
He is said to have given up the command
Of his Liberal force becsuse he was refused
the privilege Of leading the assault upon Mat
aInoras. -
The Liberal force around Matarnoras is 1000
strong, commanded by Escafala. Mejia has
an iron gunboat patrolling the river above and
below Matamoras.
Firing was heard at BRACES on the 22d !;
doubtless the gunboat practising. No appre-
tensions are felt in Matamoras that the Liber-
ais viii be able to capture the city.
Canales was at Mier, levying contributions
upon the citizens, and committing outrages.
He had given orders that those merchants who
owed money to citizens of Matamoras should
pay such debts in full to hrm, or heiwould burn
their houses. s5ni s4i.l ~ 4Fg51 ssga
The Matamoras Moniteur has adyiees from
Belgium that 10000 volunteers are coming for
the ImIerialists. sa

Letters from Texas say that directly after
the war the people of that State were willing
to agree to almost anything for the sake Of
pacification, but owing to the dilatory move
ments of Provisional Gov. Hamilton, much
dissatisfaction begins to be manifested. The
State has made but little progress in restoring
her relations to the Union, nor are proper fa-
cilities offered throughout Texas for taking

a Couple of Rebel straws.


The Northern copperheads have shown an
unmistakeable disposition to repudiate our
national Indebtedness, but finding il an uphill
business to SOUL their craft against the strong
current of national good faith, they are now be
ginning to demand the assumption OF the reb-
Ell debt by the national government. We give
two examples.
The Chicago Tiaes, the leading Democratic
paper Of Illinois, says:
"There is no ground Of justice upon which
we can expect the Southern people to submit
willingly to the situation, unless we recognize
the same value in their funded obligations as

The Buffalo Courier, another Democratic or
gan, says:
'EWe vote for the Union and the payment of
the War debt of both the South and the
North"

MEMORIAL HALL-We are gratifed to
learn that Prof. Smyth has made excellent
progress in getting up subscriptions for this
fine addition to "Old Bowdoin," and is en-
couraged to hope for the early contamination
of the enterprise. OF the $4,000 which he as
singed to this city, he has already received all
but 5000. He will be in the city to. resume
work to-day, and it is hoped that before two
suns more shall set he may be able to see his
work accomplished, SO far as this city is con-
cerned.
Prof S. is persevering, hopeful and indomi-
table, and assures us that he shall camp on
the ground till the desired sum is raised, and
he advises, as a matter of economy, that what
is done be done quickly, for if he should die
before the sum is raised the citizens would
have to bury him, which, with suitable mon
ument, would cost much more than the 5000
now required.

SHUTTING THE STABLE Door AFTER THE

that men were employed in clearing the dirt
and distractions from the openings to the cul-

very well, but it should be somebody's business
to see that they are open during the rain
storms. During the rain storm last week
many of the openings were so DISTRACTED that
the water poured in torrents over the cross
walks, rendering them impossible. The fl til
collected in our sewers win never be cleaned
out unless the water has free access to the
culverts when it is raining.
