NEW ORLEANS, July g.
A careful consideration Of the reports
of Brvt. Mai Gen. Charles Griffin, u. s.
A. shows that j. w. ThrOckmortOnp

governor of Texas in his stead, and will
be obeyed and respected accordingly.
By command Of MaJ-Gen. j. y. sheridan.

The Republicans issue Of the 3lst
states that Pease was recommended by
A. J.. Hamilton. Pease is a native Of
Connecticut, has been a resident Of Texas
since 1888, and a lawyer at the Texas
bar. He has served in both branches Of
the Texas legislature, and was thrice
elected governor, serving from 1858 to
1857, and was a consistent union man
during the war.
WAsHINGT0N, July 30.-It is expected
that the commissioners appointed by act
Of congress totreat with hostile Indians, /
will assemble at st. Louis on the 9Th of
August, for organization and arrange
meut of programme. Those now in the
Atlantic states will start for the point of
rendezvous at once. No difficulty is ap-
pretended that the territory proposed
will be appropriated as q permanent
home for the Indians. That portion Of
it comprising the northwestern section
of Texas is cut off from the residue of
that state by what is called Stake Plains
and Sandy Waste, and the consent of
tho e4Qfa TF that fpdaaI - Ahaaz Ng-.ra |
should be deemed necessary can be pro-
cured at a comparative trifie. It is esti-
mated that the whole expense Of this
plan Of ending forever the Indian diff
~culties, viii not exceed the cost Of car
rying on the present quasi warfare a sim
gle year.
In the Surratt trial, Darlington again
consumed the whole day in arguing this
case.
Judge Blactchford has denied the mo-
ton to vscate the attachment against
Vernon K. Stevenson, quartermaster Of
transportation in the Confederate army,
aud alledged defraUder Of the United

A letter from Monterey says Lopez,

rested by the governor of Oaxaea and

New YORK, July S0.-The Tri6une's
Florence correspondent says the present
Prime Minister Rstazzi is not as uncondi-
tional a champion Of complete separation
between church and state as was his pre-
decessOr, Ricssoli, but he also is willing
TO give liberty to the church whenever
she is made to abandon her prerOgatives.
The majority of the chamber still holds
to the old European views, that the
powers Of the state government extend
also over religious affairs.
Garibaldi is exceedingly amazed at the
absurd attempt made TO cross the RO-
frontier. It is true, that he remains
the continent in hopes Of assistance,
10 the solution of the Roman question,
be had given arms and money, that
Mszzini had sent no arms but
the programme was, that the Romans
commence, and that the Italians
outside should assist them by means of
A second Marcalla expedition, but too
many were let into the secret, and a
Frementi, melted by an ex-minister,
thought to raise a laurel crown for them
and failed. Gen. Adj, in an an
cry letter to the Gazette, says: De To-
ronO has raised q storm about his head,
but he declares he and his friends in
tend to fight for possession Of the capitol
Of Italy, and he will keep his word.
