cumbcut, is, from all that 1 can learn, a mosi worth) man, and for that reason not very well calculated for the Chief Magistrate of a state composing of multifarious element as Texas, in fact, the army is the Government. It is its breath which makes and unmakes its PresidentVCabinets, and Generals; and under its pot« nt sway ) ou may, with reason, look for the repetition of the same scenes which have mar-1 lt;jeern jt unnecessary to say any thing about the ked the progress of the Spanish American | cia.ims or qualifications* of Mr. Linton—he wasone among the first settlers of the village andby Jas. \V.

The seeds of dissension, furious and creel dissension,and thickly sown among them, and they will spring up moistened by a thousand streams of blood.Gen. Houston has recently sent a force of about 9j men to visit the Indians lying north between lied river and the white settlements to reclaim all plunder that may be fonnd amongthem, and to ascertain if they have hostile iu-teniiou or not towards the Texians; in otherwords, as I have no doubt, to commitsuch outrages under color of their purposes as will provoke the Indians to acts that may give the Texian General a pretence to pounce uponthem, and be the means of drawing Gen. Gaines to the western side of that imaginary lin«*, the Sabine, to protect the Texians from tne nostile inroads of our Indians! This is a favorite measure with Houston, and he hopes to succeed in it, by the well known facility of General Gaines in listening to the reports which have been brought to him repeatedly since he firstarrived at Port Jessup last spring. Some of which were the cause of his advance to this place, and nearly all of which he has had the satisfac ion of ascertaining, since, were totally false.Six companies of the 7th Infantry and three they are now, for good purpose nobody knows. 'Tis sertain as the noon day that it is in violation of our relations with Mexico is equivalent to a declaration of war on our part.— On what ground it is pretended to be justified, 1 cannot imagine. I have been induced sometimes to believe that occasson for the injury of Gen. Gaines has been sought by the administration, with which he is said not to be in high favor. You will recollect, he was invested with discretionary powers as far as the of Dragoons, from Fort Gihson arrived aboutthe first of tins month at Nacogdoches, whereconcerned; and it may he very convenient for the Adrninistiation to disparage his discretion should affairs turn out differently from what they hope, and thereby enable to slip out of adiscreditable piece of business.”BOSTON SLaVK CASE.The extraordinary interest which the case excited will eommend the opinion to every reader, espec ially after the following evidence oi the feeling wnich prevails on the subject in theSJUtf.From the (Geo) Sentinel.OUTRAGE UPOH bOUl'nERN RIGHTS.We furnish our readers this morning with adecision which gives an entire new feature to the slave question, it has just been decided by the supreme c urt of Massachusetts, that a slave carried into that state by his owner, becomes eo ins*.anti free! Wnut think you of that, people of the south. If a southerner carries a servant or a nurse with him into the state of Massachusetts, the highest judicial tribunal of that state is ready with its writs and processes to wrest that servant from shim and pronounce him a freeman before his face! And then, as if to add the grossest insult to the deepest injury, we are told that this decision is no interference with the rights of the -1 slave holder, but that rattier, the carrying of a si *tve intoastate which does not tolerate slavery, is an interference with the laws of that state!
