Western Texas.—The Galveston
Globe, of the 24th inst.; thus speaks of
Western matters:—“The health in the
West during the seasons has generally
been good, and the crops have yielded
abundantly; and what is still more fa
vorable, the planters have found the Uni
ted States army a ready market for all
their surplus produce, stock, See. But
notwithstanding these propitious times,
we regret to learn that there is still com
plaint about protection. The citizens of
late have been more or less annoyed by
Indians, who now and then are making
predatory excursions into the settlements,
stealing. horses, and committing other
petty depredations. The United States
army gives very little protection to any
portion of Texas other than Corpus
Christi. The army as we understand,
has only been ordered to Texas to pre
vent an invasion from Mexico, during
the pending of the question of annexa
tion ; consequently the 1 Commander is
not authorized to separate or divide his
troops further than necessary to watch
the movements of that country.”
Camanches Killed. 1 —The Houston
Star of the 18th inst. says:—“We have
been informed by a gentleman who left
Austin a few days since that it was re
ported in that city that Col. Hays lately
found two hostile Camanches in the Li-
E an Camp. They had two American
orses with them, and it appeared evi
dent that they had been engaged in some
of the depredations in that section. He
required the Lipaus to yield them up.
and bad them execoted in presence of
the whole tribe. This act of summary
justice may have a salutary effect upon
the few refractory Lipaus who have
been disposed to adhere to Juan Castro.”

Galveston dates up to Monday last, the
24th inst. The news is of little impor
tance.
An arrival at Galveston brings the in
telligence of the loss of the barque Mary
Walker, Capt. Thrane, on the bar at
Aransas. No farther particulars are giv
en.
Speaking of the business and pros
pects of Galveston, the Civilian has the
following:
Galveston is now full of strange faces,
both European and American. The
number of arrivals, thus far, has been
greater, we believe, than during the cor
responding period of any previous sea
son. The usual period of activity has
just arrived, yet the animated appear
ance of things for a month and more past
is such as we have only been in the hab
it of seeing in a much later portion of
Tjjfie season.
r .President Jones has issued a procla
mation, appointing the 15th of Decem-
bei'mext as the day for holding the elec
tion for Governor, Lieutenant Governor,
and Senators and Representatives to the
Legislature of the State of Texas.
The 4 barque Strabo had arrived at
Galveston from Antwerp with 200 emi
grants.

He immediately took him to their camp,
and came to town for assistance. * The
wound is represented as a very bad one,
but it is not known, whether it will prove
mortal or not. The men were not a
ware whose plantation they were on, or
to whom the negro befonged, ds they are
both strangers to this vicinity.—Savan

A “ Feast of Honor.
Capt. Freemont relates that when ’he
was at Fort Laramie, duriug his expedi
tion to the Rocky Mountains, he was of
ten invited by the Iudians to “ a feast of
honor, a dog feast.” He went to one . of
them, the women and children were sit
ting round the lodge, and the host and
his guests took seats on buffalo robes.—
The dog was in a large pot over the firjs,
in the middle of the lodge; immediate
ly on their arrival, it was dished up in
large wooden bowls, one of which was
handed to each person. The flesh ap
peared very glutinous, with something of
the flavor and appearance of mutton.—
“Feeling something move behind me,
(says Captain Fremont,) I looked round,
and found that I had taken my seat a-
mong a litter of fat young puppies. Had
I been nice in such matters the prejudi
ces of civilization might have interfered
with my tranquility; but, fortunately, 1
am.not of delicate nerves, and continued
quietly to empty my platter.
Earthquakes.
Sixty-one earthquakes have occurred
on the coast of Chili. An earthquake at
Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, in 1775,
shook all the seas of Europe, the north of
Africa, and the West Indies and even
Lake Ontario! It lasted only six se
conds, but in that time it destroyed one
quarter of the dwelling houses, all the
public buildings, and 30,000 inhabitants
of Lisbon. During an earthquake at Li
ma, the officer of a ship says that the
ship was violently tossed, the surface of
the water boiled, and was covered with
fishes. One of the-chain cables belong
ing to the ship suffered partial fusion.—
In 1765, three quarters of Lima, and
120,000 of its inhabitants were destroy
ed by an earthquake. n ;
