PEcos GOLD HUNTERs.-Wc had
the pleasure of meeting, on ycstcr-
day, our friends, Potor Wynno and
David Griffin, of tho gold hunting
expedition that left here last spring,
and from them obtained items, which
will probably interest our readers :
About thirty ofthc company were
encampcd at Eagle Springs, in Lat
itudc 3Oa o north, Longitude 2S
west, in the Aguilla mountains, TWEEN
ty-five miles north oftho Rio Grande
river, in Preside county, where they
arrived about tho 25th of june
They had seer no Indians, and ap-
pretended no danger from thom.-
They had found gold, but our infor-
mant "didn'tsec it," Werc in good
spirits, had provisions sufficient to
last until Christmas, and were about
one hundred miles from the town of
Franklin, where they could obtain
supplies.
Messrs. Wynn & Griffin left the
encampment on the 18th of July, in
company with twenty others. We
did not obtain the particulars ofthc
success or failure Of the expedition,
as from fatigue and anxiety to meet
their friends at homo, or some other
cause, they were not disposed to be
communicative on tho subject.
They also bring the melancholy
intelligence of the death of our
youthful friend Newton Bingham,
who died near Fort Davis on their
way out.-Belton Journal.
We are informed that some horse
thieves were ovortaken near where
the Fort Graham road crosses North
Bosque, and the stolen horses in
t h possession recovered. AS
some of these horses were probably
stolen in this county, we publish
the brands, as far as we could learn
them. They arc as follows LID

W. havo on our table the first
cotton we have seer open and fully
developed, this year. 1t came from
the farm of Mr.. Sergeant near this
place, and was taken from tho field
on the first day of August fully five
bales could have been picked from
his field on that day, and the bolls
are opening ~rapidly.-MiHicdn

The moving has commenced.
Messrs. d. r.. Iglehart g. Co., have
torn down their building and moved

The Jefferson papers h have a
lengthy account of the assassination
of Col. W. II. Fowler, Deputy Col
lector of Internal Revenue of Ma
rion County, by Davis B. Bonfocy,
Principal Collector for the District,
which occurred in Jefferson early
on the morning of the 10th inst.
Cause is not known; 1t was not oven
known that there had been any
difficulty between the parties.
On Wednesday, the 9th inst, there
was received in New York a ship
ment of 4,541 bushels of wheat from
Chattanooga. This wheat went by
railroad 400 miles to Savannah and
thence by steamer to New York
If wheat can be proftably raised in
North Georgia and East Tennessee,
and shipped thus to New York in
August, what may we not look for
in Dallas county, when the Texas
Central railroad reaches that re-
gion Houston Telegraph.

heat as your market, or any other
