Crawford has any authority for this action, or not, I am not able to say, but it would seem from the fact that no notice is taken of it by tho propor authorities here, that he must have something to back him up.

Reed, and I suppose cau be considered authentic. -Everything is quiet on the Mexican sldo nt present.
