THE BORDER.

Gen. Ord passed through St. Louis OF
Friday: where he was captured BY repor
ter Of the republican. He said:
"The Mexican government arc sending
large force to the Rio Grande under Gen
Trevino. This for 10 composed Of regu
ars, aud 10 larger than that command BY
Gen. Taylor"
"By dsn. Taylor at P.io Alto and Resacs
de IL Palma, do you mean?"
'.No; by Gen. Taylor in the battle oi
Buena Vista. The Mexicans, besides thi'
force, have regular troops and militia along
be border"
"When did You leave San Antonio, gen.
Let, see this is Saturday.
"F,iday, general. Yesterday was
Thanksgiving" "Well, one losea his
r. exon ny on the cars, riding night and day
left San Antonio on Monday morning."
"Any late news, or have any recen, out.
RACES occurred, that have not been telegraph.
"None lately, but . state Of uncet ainty
prevails"
"Are not the rumors from that quarter
somewhst intensified or exaggerated just
at this time, in order to influence congress.
to send moro troops there, or increase the
army?'
"Not at all /; the situation is critical, and
more troops are needed. We should be in
su b condition that, if compelled to follow
hostile bands across the border, we may be
able t0 send aufficient force 20 as not to
come b.ck with our tails behind. us, 20 to
speak"
General, may not the reason for the
movement Of "a large regular force toward
the frontier be owing to The pressure upon
Diaz from the border departments-an ef-
fort to conciliate them, as it were, and to
retain his prestige"
No, it is the upper cl .sses that incline
to hostilities. The large body of adven
turers, speculators, and the contractors favor
. collision.
''The authorities are not controlled in
this respect by the masses, who are mostly
ignoran', and get all he information they
have from the cap tai. The common peo
pie don't know, nor care much about how
matters may turn. The Indians, who for.
merly went from our side, have Joined with
the Mexican Indians and Mexican outlaw.
and they are ready for plunder and robbery
A portion Of the country has suffered from
drouth, and provisions are scarce. These
classes are ready to join the outlaws and
60 on expeditions for plunder and rob
berry"
The general, in reply to a question as to
whether there had been raids into the
Mexican territory from our side Of the line
said that there had been some incursions Of
Indians from our reservations.

A new democratic newspaper, the Wash
ington Post has been started at the national
capital. The staff consists of stillson
Hutchins, proprietor; John A. Cockerell,
m .naging editor; o. ]. Bnell, editorial
writer, and Messrs. Aiken and Marks assis-
tants. The money man of the concern
must have good sized fortune to spare.
The house democratic caucus has voted to
support the enterprise individually and IS .

Secretary Schurz in his annual report
deyotes considerable space to the discussion
Of Indian matters, closing with the following
general comments
The Indian service has, in some of its
branches, long been the subject of popular
suspicion. Inquiries instituted by myself
since Was charged with the conduct of
this department have convinced me of this
fact. As result of such inquiries, presum-
,ivessevidence Of fraudulent practices Of a
gross character came to my notice, which
justified me in handing over number Of
cases to the department Of justice for Grim
While following the principal object of dis
thought tiny duty to extend, incidentally
euch Investigations over past transactions,
believing it we'll to impress officers Of the
government with the fact that they will no,
escape from their responsibility when they
leave their Offices, and contractors that neith.
er their plunder nor their persons will be
safe, although their accounts may have been
closed AMI the money gone into theiE
pockets.
do not deem the present machinery Of
the Indian service sufficient for the preven.
tion Or discovery of abuses and fraudulent
practices. The inspectors and superinten.
dents, who are charged, among other things,
with such duty, have in but rare instance,
been successful in ferreting out the willy ex.
pedients resorted to BY dishonsst contractor.
or agents. To discover evidences of fraud
and mismanagement by having an inspecto,
visit an agency, is like Catching birds with
brass band" What the Indian burcar
needs, perhaps more than any other brancl
of the government Is . special service, com
posed Of efficient agents, who, under th,
immediate control Of the department, csl
move secretly, and can pounce upon III,

tion. lventure to express the hope tha
congress will not refuse the appropriation

ado that the investigations carried on b1

respects, seriously hampered BY is want o
