DEPREpATIoSs ON THE TEXAS FRONTIER.
The secretary of the interior has re-
ceived from the war department extracts
from letter of the commanding general
Of the department Of Texas, in relation to
the removal Of the Kickapoo Indians now
in Mexico. He says they have been re-
tanned in Mexico by brides of money and
goods as set forth in the reports Of the
agent, Mills. The depredations on live
stock continue undated. The marau-
ders with their stolen stock have been
traced time and again to the Rio Grande,
and he is RELIABLY informed that parties
in pursuit can often see from the
north side of the river their stock in
possession of other parties, collect
ed in convenient droves on the
south side for sale or distribution to the
interior Of Mexico. This gradual, but
heavy loss Of property he says is very dis
couraging to the people, they are becoming
desperate, and seeing the determination of
the Mexican officials to retain the Kicka-
poo Indians in Mexico as q cloak for the
real deeds of the Mexican people, they
talk now quite freely Of organizing them
selves into armed bands, and crossing into
Mexico to recover their stolen property.
This feeling is universal on the frontier,
since the recent Developments with regard
10 the removal Of the Kickapoo Indians.
General Reynolds adds at is believed
that these depredations can be effectually
and permanently stopped by pursuing the
marauding bands into Mexico with troops,
accompanied by the owners of the missing
stock"
