which mav, at no remote day, be of much inter-
ust to the United States. It was recently viewed
as a part of the United States, althou_t:h Spain
had not acknowledged it as ours. By the recent
treaty the U. States abandons all claim to Texas;
anti if ratified, that line country will be, like ma-
ny other appendages of the Spanish monarchy,
entirely without the power and influence of the
Spanish‘government. The people partake of the
character of the inhabitants of the Mississippi
and Red River; and finding themselves’abandon-
ed by the Uuited States government, ' will not
hesitate to raise the standard of independence.-—
An expedition has already been fitted out, but
with some apparent desire for secrecy, from
Natchez‘ and certain places on the Red River;
and we may shortly see an indt’/lL’7ldE1l! state on
our border, .made up of emigrants from among
us. Texas lies between the Sabine and the Rio
Grande, and between the Bay o‘f"Mexico and the
lucky Mountains.; in width’ about 600 miles;
in length about 1000; embracing one of the li-
nest l‘t‘§_»;l0l)S of North America. This country
will produce sugar,cotton and coffee. in the great-
est abundance, besides all other products com-
mon to Western America.-C'oZum6z'an.
A Natches paper, speaking of the expedition
;-.guinsv_ ’]‘exas, says—‘Their plan, we understand,
is’ to drive out the ‘small "number of Royalists,
which yet remain there, and immediately ‘organ-
ize a form of government similar to our own.
\Vhen this is accomplished, their endeavors are
to be directed in such a manner as to invite a rap-
id and an immediate emigration from the U'nito_-cl
States. Lands,'it is said, will be given. and fa-
cilities afforded to such as are desirous of becom-
ing: citizens of the newly created Republic of
Texas.
are led to suppose that in a short time the Amer-
ican weight of population will prcponderate, or,
ernment purely American, as well in character
as in administration. This sounds well ; but
whilst we present ‘.0 the public all the fond hopes'..
of the revolutionists, common honesty compels
us to acknowledge that there are many bars to the
enterprise. Texas is tmdoubtedfy a rich and fer-
tile tract of country, wide in extent, and ample in.
resources; but from the deisultory and savage’
warfare which has desolated the land, that vast“
extent presents almost literally a vast and noise-
less dcsart, the inhabitants have been either mur-
dered or driven farther in the interior to seek a
precarious shelter from the barbarity ofthe Span-
iards ; the same hand that desolated the-field and
moistened it with the blood of the native, at the
same moment dried up every channel of l't.‘.SOUi'l-309
and time and labor can alone replenish them.—--
‘What may he the present resources of the party,
we know not, but it is very certain that the mo-
ment they rcndezvous upon the Sabine the Span-
iards will dtive every horse, mule, and every head
of cattle over the Rio Grandc, and unless they
have been provident enough to lay in sullici-;-nt
stores to supply them until something»el‘fec‘.ive
be done; want, misery, and fatigue must attend
them, whithersoever they turn.’
The Louisiana Herald of June 22d, states that.
orders had been given for the troops at N-.tchito-
chcz to march to the Sabine, to prevent the pas-
sing of auxiliaries or supplies to the Independ-
ents in the province of Texas.

of June last. -
Lluring the Visit, a very unfortunate accident
happened ; one of the young Princes, in passing
about to view the equipments of the ship, had the

\-rune severely injured. ,

On the 31st of December, 1818, James Dil-
lingham. captain and owner ofthe ship Warring-
ton, being-in lat. 47, N..lon. 50, \V. meredian of
Paris, discovered a brig entirely dismantled and
apparently in the greatest distress. It was the
Robert of Blyth, capt. t_Ilarke, who sailed from
Liverpool for New-York,_ and had been bulfetted
by the waves during 102 days. She had 18 pas-
sengers on board,amongst whom were 5 children,
the ladies was not more than 23’. At the mo.
ment when these unfortunate beings were seen
from the VV-arrington, the sea was horrific ; the
brig halfopened, made water in every direction ;
her captain lashed to the helm, struggled in vain
against the billows; and during the last 24 hours,
even the ladies had worked atwthe pumps with
the sailors, still endeavoring to delay, for a short
time, a death which seemed inevitable.
lingham‘, forgetting his own safety, immediately
résolveclto save them. He succeeded at first in"
launchinga boat; but it required all his authori-
ty to,make the sailorstset out, as the greatness of
the danger appalled them. Indeed their fears’
weie not without cause, for the boat foundered
at the very moment it neared the brig", and the
men had only time to grapple the vessel. Del-
lingham’s courage increased with the danger.-—
Another boat was launched and followed by some
intrepid seamen, he threw himself into it and
steared straight for the wreck. By his skill and
daring, he succeeded in boarding her. All on
board wished to escape at once-—but Dillingham
by blending much firmness with mildness, suc-
heading in restraining their eagerness, and the
deliverance of some was deferred, to secure the
safety of all. Having taken as many on board
as the boat could hold without danger, he regain-
ed his -vessel, and in two trips more, not less per-
ilous, as night was approaching, he succeeded in
saving all on board the wreck. One child, alone,
l8 months old, died in Capt. Dillinghatrfs arms.
The bare perusal of the particulars just stated,
is sufficient to gives. trué idea of the courage
and presence of mind of this intrepid captain;
but to justly appreciate the good qualities of his
generous soul, we ‘must read the modest and un-
varnished account he gave to the prefect of the
Gironcle, who had expi‘cssed a wish to learn the
particulars. \Ve shall cite the concluding sen-
tnnce of this report as it is iemarkable :—
‘ \Vhen all those unfortunate beings had reach- .
ed my ship, I forgot the dangers I had run. I
even forgot the risk of wanting food for so many
additional mouths—-Nothing like that occupied
my thoughts. I felt nothing btitthe satisfaction
of havmg contributed to save the lives of those
distressed beings—they loaded me with their ben-
dictions, and I was happy. Their grateful pray-
ers doubtless reached the throne of the Most
High, for I had only :32 days passage.’
The brother of one of the ladies came from,
London to Bordeaux for the express purpose of
thanking captain Dillingh-am. It is in like thanks,
coming from the hearts of those he saved, and
in his own breast, that such a man as capt. Dil-
lingham finds his sweetest reward.
GLASGOW, June 8.
It isour painful duty to record one of the most
serious accidents that has occurred in the neigh-
borhood of Carlisle for many years. A great
number of farmers, cattle-dealers, and others,
from the Scottish side of the Solway Frith, who
hadbeen attending Rosley-hill fair, had, unden
the direction ofa guide from Browness, safely
passed the ford _about ' one o’clock on Tuesday
evening ; but having along tract of sand to cross,
a "strong south west wind blowing, and it being
very dark, some of them separated from the
main body. .Instead of holding directly north,
they deviated to the westward, and, ere they were
aware of the danger, plunged at full gallop into
a very dangerous creek, many fathoms in depth,
called the Stonepit. Distressing to relate, the
