RcmlnlHceuces of a Texa Veteran.
Editor Fk Pbeks: la series of lt
tent I intend to give your reador portions
of the history of the Santa Fe expedition not
coutuiued in George Wilkius Kendall's two
volume. : Mino will eoinmeuoe, where the
com mud fro:n uocessity separated, and he,
Keudtll, starting off in Hdvanoo, could not
know the history of the main command
under Gen. McLeod. ; .
Again, my narrative rolnting principally
ou my personal experience, I being the
ouly prisoner in the hospital of San Luis
Putosi, iu State of name name, and also re
le vied there, my fate aud history is entirely
different from the reHt of the prisoners, for
I never was ih the city of Mexico, nor at
Perote or Vera Cruz, nor was I chained like
the balance of my companioas.
To explain to those who are not conver
sant with the history of the Itepublio. of
Texas nor have road George Wilkins Kendall's
description of the Santa Fe Expedition, I
will hive to mike some introductory re
mark 4, to explain the aim and object of said
expedition, and the authority uuder which
it started.' . '
Under the treaty of Sam Houston and San
ta Anna, after the latter was taken prisoner
by the Texans, Santa Anna ceded all the terr
itory this side of' the Bio Grande to Texas.
' The regular army of Texas was dwbpnded
in 1840. Geu. Mirabeau Limar being pres
ident of the Republic of Texas, started the
Santa Fe expedition by virtue of this au
thority. ;
; He invited merchants of Texas to open a
trade with New Mexico, for at that time that
trade, as well as that of Chihuahua, was un
der the control of meruhauts of St. Louis,
Mo. Texas being in nearer proximity ought
by right have had that important trade.
President Lamar appointed commissioners
of treaty, only wishing to claim the coun
try this side of the Rio Grande according to
treaty, aud also wishing to establish com
mercial relations with New1 Mexico. Under
these auspices the expidition started from
.Austin ubont the middle of Juue, 1841, ','
But my future, will Bhow, that neither
Santa Anna regarded the treaty, for the
Mexicans claimed the Nueces as the only
boundary, nor did the Governor of Santa
Fe, regard the treaty Gen. MoLeod made
with the Governor ; only under these con:
ditions the Texans gave up their arms. "We
could have whipped his cohorts, but we
were betrayed by one of our own officers,
and the Mexicans, treacherous and ignorant
as they were, felt not bound by our treaty
stipulations. But years afterwards retribu
tion met them.

Editor Feeb Pkess j Democratic ma
jorities throughout the country are causing
much excitement in the city and the Demo
crats seem nearly as much surprised as their
foes at this Anti-Republican tidal wave. The
city elections are over and the battle between
the parties is about a "draw," and the spoils
about equally divided. Bribery, corruption,
and all manner of "ways that are dark and
tricks that are vain" were practiced in the
local; scramble for office. The five judges
elect will unseat their opponents next Mon
day, the bets will all be "squared," and it is
confidently hope,d that tbe feverish citizen
will settle down to business again. Mayor
a vin arrived here from El Paso, Texas,
yesterday. He is in custody of Michigan
officers who will hold him to answer for ex
tensive forgeries of the "Adrian Water
bonds" while acting as mayor of Adrian,
Michigan.

.1 New Jot, Not. 10, i8J. -It
would seem that October baa beeu a
fatal month for New York. For the most
part th weather has resembled murky
London. A bright October sun wm a rari
ty indeed, and there musjt haye been some
thing in the muggy atmosphere to breed ca
lamities. First, we had a crazy French
man running amuck in a thoroughfare crowd
ed with lady shoppers, and dealing death
blows right and left with a pair of compass.,
ets. - Then an employe of the Third Aveu
ue Horse Railroad Company tries to Bhoot
his unule. the president of the company,
and uuder the impression that his shot was, .
effective, blows out his own brains, with
the itame weapon. Then the Park Theater
fire, which missed only by a few hours
being a human hlocusJt. Tbe- climax of
horrors was capped h,0weyer, on tho last day
of the month by tbe murder of three bean
tlfnl and innocent children,' by a lunatic
mother, who subsequently takes her pwa ,
life. Dr. Seguin. the father of the murder- ,
4 children aud the husband of the lunatio.
in question, i mftn known to entertain
peculiar views on the $ubject 4t infancy. .
That phase of insanity resuming fxom ner.
vous disorders he has mode special a study.
It is reported that he would hae been call, .,
ed an insanity expert in the Gi(eau cse '
for his peculiar ideas No one qujsstions
the Doctor's high standing in ,hia profes- ;
siou, and tbe most , profound sympathy is ,
extended on all sides for his . dreadful mis ,!
fortune. But it is( rather remarkable that a ,
man supposed to pe aa aaept m giagnosmg
the insane ' phase of morbid nervousness, .
hysteria, etc, should have failed to discover it
that his Own wife was a lunatio. . ,
The present sensation in New York ia Mrs. 4
Trfincrtrv. The Bernhardt boom was never .
so great aj the interest in the "Jersey Lily.". ' ,
who is a cooimon BUbject or conversation
Her piotures are for sale in all the shop win- ;
dows. in the elevated railway stations, and
on vendors' carts in the streets. . Some of-
the photographs are highly colored, and not :
in the least like the original. Her beautiful
face is now bo well known that Yhea. she .
ventures forth in tbe street people Htace i4.
hor with abominable persistency, and even u
follow, her about. ;'The Park Theatre fire,
was a' costly advertisement to Mr. AbbeV ;
the manager, his loss being $100,000, but it," t
has not been without i,ts advantages, in,
spite of the delay of one week and the aiy.o
noyance to eager ticket holders,, I soy ea- ..,
ger advisedly, becaiwe people wo ushe4 j
forward to pay $ 18 and $20 for a single se4,",
and $320 for boxes must be some what., en ,
thusiostio. ODe advantage of the lire is ,,
that the debut was made in a more euitable, ,
place, Wallack's new theatre being ho
handsomest as well as one of Jthe targets ,
phtces of entertainment iu the country.
A great deal has been written ot late ,
about the closing of the greaj house of A.
T. Stewart A Co., and some writers have,
grown sentimental over the closing of bos-;
iness that has been so prominent before
the public for a quarter of a centurv. The
truth, of tho matter is that the business
is going on the same as ever, only under a
different name. Judge Hilton, since his
memorable attack upon the Jews, baa found
the trade of the house steadily decreasing.
It is an open secret that the house has lost '
money every year .since Stewart's death.
Mrs. Stewart, while nominally the proprie- ;
tor of the business, left everything to the '
control of Judge Hilton. Mrs. Stewart
must be over seventy years of age, yet
she affects girlish airs and always appears
resplendent in a brown wig, youthful tress.
e. and a lavish display of diamonds- J,t
became apparent that something must be
done to stop the waning fortunes of the
house of A. T. Stewart & Co. Nothing
licw than heroic treatment could hope to
remedy matters that were going from bad
to worse. Judge Hilton hit upon the hap,
Ey idea of changing the business in name,
ut not in fact. The retail department had
long been under the control .of Mr. E. J.
Denning as superintendent. That branch
of the business- could therefore be readily
turned over to him. The disposition of
the wholesale branch of the business is a
more doubtful experiment. A Mr. Gross
cock had been at the head of wholesale af- "
fairs, and to kirn, in conjunction with
three young Hi! tons, is intrusted the bus
iness for the futnre. The branches in
other cities have been long non-supporting,
and they were all closed. Judge HJL
ton says the new arrangement will innce
to Mrs. Stewart's benefit and relieve hiru
of many cares. Folks say that Judge Hil
ton will not be a loser under the new ad
ministration of affairs. He will still act as
steward for Mrs. Stewart and collect the
rents of her other numerous properties.
