To OUR PATiONH.
After this day the Advocate will cease to have a sepa- ’
rate existence. It has been united with the Times, and j
the two will be hereafter published together, under the j
name of the “Arkansas Times and Advocate”—edited
by Albert Pike & J. H. Reed.
Of the many reasons which have led the editor of the ;
Advocate to this step, it is necessary to say no more,
than that the onerotls duties of a profession inter; ;re too
much with his vocation as editor, and by this change he
will be relieved from all other duties save that of writing
for the press. |
As to the political aspect of the matter, wo belie, o
jpur patrons will be pleased with a change-which v. ill
insure to us unity of effort, purpose and action. A di
vided force is ever powerless. None ot the great objects
for which we have hitherto contended will ho lost sight
of—and the “Times and Advocate” will continue to sus
tain the same high principles which the Advocate has
always taken as guides and land marks in its political
course.
0^7“A11 business of every kind, connected with the
office will ho transacted solely by Mr. Reed, the junior
editor, and to him all letters must be directed. The vo
cation of the senior editor will not extend to the business
of the firm. His connection with it extends only to as
sist in editing the paper.
Those in arrears to the Advocate will please make
immediate payment to its Agents. It is a virtue hard to
practice and therefore worthy of the more honor.
The acts of the last legislature have been printed, and
we acknowledge the receipt of a copy through the polite
ness of the publishers, Messrs. Wbodruff & Pew. »\t o
understand they have refused to print the journals at the
price fixed by law. In tact, we have been so informed,
as well by them as by the Governor. They consider the
price too srna.IK. The journals of the last session of the
Territorial legislature are not yet printed. This should
not be. The doings of our great men should hot be hid
den under a bushel.
Jlr. Stephenson, U. S. Minister-to the Court of St.
James, has written home a letter, indignantly disavow
ing the authorship of certain letters published from
abroad, last summer, in the Globe, and attributed to him.
He states, that, in his official character of Foreign Min
ister, he disdains the base idea of intermeddling, either
directly or indirectly /with the political concerns of the
United States. This manly declaration, and honest too,
(for it is a virtue in these days to bo honest,) has caller,
down upon him the wrath ot the («lobe—and be is de
nounced in that paper with a most holy indignation.—
Truly, it was rather a cutting sarcasm upon Mr. Van
Buren’s instructions to Mr, Mcl.ane, when minister to
the same court.
Michigan has appropriated $80,000 for a geological
survey of the state. In matters of public policy, she is
every way ahead of A rkansas. Our first legislature wen
zealous enough as party men, but it would be difficult to
show whal they did for the state. No penitentiary—no
appropriations for roads or canals—nothing to develope
the resources of the state, to increase its prosperity at
at home, or its character abroad.
By the following extract from a letter, addressed by
Santa Alia to the Minister of War of Mexico, it seems
that he has resolved to falsify all his pledges with Texas
and the United Htatcs, and to violate every thing that
men of honor hold sacred. lie says—
“ I should protest to your Excellency, and in the face
of the entire world, that I obtained my liberty without
subscribing to any conditions whatever ; that neither be
fore nor since that conjuncture, 1 have not made with
any one, let him be who he may, any contract that might
bring reproach upon the national independence or honor,
or place in jeopardy the integrity of the territory ; that,
accordingly, I could have given no guaranties whatever,
to any individual or government, relative to those pre
tended stipulations ; and before consenting, either wil
lingly or through force, to any such conditions, 1 would
have suffered a thousand deaths before subscribing to
such terms.”
Vicissittides of Forlu7ie.~lr.tha year I 't3 or !14, Ira
Ingram was a school teacher in the village oi ! tica,
where he committed a forgery, for which lie was sen
tenced to imprisonment in the state prison at New York.
After his release, lie assumed another name, and became
a bookseller, in a small way, somewhere in the state of
Kentucky. We perceive by the N. York papers, that a
law on the subject of slavery has been recently enacted
in the Nation of Texas. and that one fra Ingram has
signed the same as speaker of the Mouse of Representa
tives of that republic. Jtohdtok Courier.
And was not the Charles E. Hawkins, who -ecentl}'
died in N. Orleans holding the ollice ut Commodore ul
the Texas Navy, the same individual who some H or 10
vears ago committed a most kavaire, cold blooded and de
liberate murder in Key West, Florida, upon Vt illiam
Allison McRea, Esq., the talented, high-minded ar.d
honorable Attorney of the Un'ted States for that District;
and escaped the gallows only because the deed was so
atrocious that a jury of the District could not be had,
who had not “formed and expressed an opinion” on
the subject. The Territory could not demand a change
(•of venue—the prisoner would not—he was therefore dis
charged after two terms of the court V We ask for in
formation, J\'ashcillc Earner.
We know nothing about the foregoing statements—but
we arc very certain that the “vicissitudes of fortune ”
have transformed a multitude of cut-throats, desperadoes,
outlaws and criminals, into Texian heroes and states
men. Robert Rotter and Closely Baker, both great men
in that new republic, are not unknown to the criminal
records of our country. , A fellow who ran away from his
creditors ar,d floated'do\vn the Arkansas in a pirogue,
was for a time acting Governor of Texas—and against
some of the heroes of Pan Jacinto indictments for rnpr
der, Arc., arc now pending in this very .county.—>luv.
Important Decision,—The upre i - Court of Massa>
enusetts have decided that a bond binding the signer not
to carry on any given kind of business—as lor. instance, j
on selling out his business to another, is illegal and ViUd. j
being agiinrt good policy and the pubHi interest. j

At a large and respectable meeting ofcitiztins of Pu. . 1
ki county held at the Court House in Little Rock on t!w
doth April, instant. Cen. R.ChiWres. was called to the j
chair, and Albert Riko appointed Secretary.
On motion of Jas. Lawson, the ohair appointed Me-af;;.1
Noah H. Badgott. F. \. i\ic Williams, and Richard*'.;
Hawkins, a committee, in conjunction wftts'tho Necro
taTyi-te draft resolutions expressive of the feelings ot .
this meeting;—who, after some time .spent therein, re-i
ported the following;
Whereas! at the present term of the I’ulaski Circuit
(mart, VVm. T. McKkk, indicted for tho murder ol tea- ,
ford l3. Scull Ins been convicted of that high and at.ro- j
cious crime ; and whereas Alexander AlcKee, charged »
jointly in the same indictment, has been acquitted, be- ;
cause testimony adduced against his brother could not, j
by the law of the land, be adduced against him; and
whereas the said Alexander McKee, since his acquittal, ;
with a hardihood not oft in to be met with.—a daring ui- '
frontery, scoffing at law and justice,—and a defiance of
society and public opinion conveying a living insult to ev
ery member of the community, has tiled in said Court his
affidavit for the purpose of obtaining a new trial tor the
said Wm. F. McKee, that might cud in liis acquittal,
where in he has averred as of kin own knowledge that the
said \V m. F. McKee was neither privy to nor knowing of
said murder, nor actually nor constructively present, aid
ing and abetting the same, whereby he has virtually con
fessed that he himself did that foul dead. Therefore, we,
a portion of the people of said County, finding the laws
inadequate to protect us, and binding together to exer
cise the sacred right of self defence, do resolve:
1st. That the said Alexander McKee be distinctly
and imperatively informed that his presence will no long
er betoleratad by this community, that the cup of bis vil
liany is full, and if again found among us he will be held
and treated as a fejon and an outlaw.
2d. That all good citizens be rt quested to unite with
us in effecting the laudable and peaceable remedy which
we propose to ourselves in order that the force of public
opinion and the strength of popular indignation may by
their solemn tones of warning to the guilty miscreant, ef
fect that which the law could not do.
!!d. That no portion of our proceedings is to be held
as in the remotest degree impugning the conduct of the
jury who acquitted the said McKee, inasmuch as none
will deny thut their verdict was according to law and evi
dence as before them,
Which resolutions were unanimously adopted.
On motion, it was resolved that the proceedings of this
meeting be published in the several newspapers printed 1
in this city.
More Creek Disturbances—.Mori Murders—This war
will apparently never terminate. The fugitive Creeks ,
still occasion uneasiness to the inhabitants on the sea
coast, in the neighborhood of • Black water Bay, near
Pensacola. They are making way towards a desert re
gion of 70 miles along the Golf from the Choctaw lutchee j
river. This strip of land is s&ne 40 miles broad, and j
has no settlements except a few families at Alaqua. A
bony of Creeks recently passed down the Choctawhatchee
in.their canoes, add killed the 1'imily of Mr. Alberson,
near the ferry, plundering as they went. Two or three
other families are misting, supposed to bo murdered_
The number ot Creeks is stated at BOO, and are the same
j that committed the recent, outrages at (Jowaggee creek.
They are on their way towards the mouth of Pea River.
Cther gangs are on their way south. These Creeks are
not disposed to go to Arkansas, in consequence of which
the squaws have murdered their small children and light
as men. At Pensacola, Com. Dallas is taking measures
to send boats and men to [Backwater Bay, where also a
| company of horse has proceeded. Col. Morton is to com
mand the forces to be raised. „V. Y. Ev. Slur.

La'c and Important from the army—Cheering tnfeUi
gene(.—By an Express which arrived last, night from
Port Dti.de we have intelligence to the 26th and of the
most gratifying character.' .Many of the chiefs and their
bands have come in and some have gone to Tampa Bay,
—and there is a strong prospect of peace.—Our savage
foe has been compelled to consent to remove beyond the
Mississippi, and preparations are making to accomplish
the desirable object speedily.
\A c have been politely favored with the following ex
tract of a letter to a gentleman of this citv, dated Fort
Dade, March 26.
“i on undoubtedly have bad minute details of all the
doings with us since our visit to Topkalika. It seems
that the Indians were as sick of the war as ourselves, ami
were happy to t ike advantage of the first chance of com
ing to terms. There is no doubt, that the war is ended
so far as the chiefs have power to contract. < Jut Camp is
! inundated with Seminoles who are moving South of the
j Hillsboro’, in conformity with the treaty stipulations,
I which requires them all to be there by the 1st proximo.
LATEST FROM TEXAS.
JYew-Orhans, April 7.—By tho arrival of (he fast
sailing schooner Southerner, in 4 days from Velasco,
we learn by a psssenger, that the country was verv
tranquil. The farmers had returned to their planta
tions, and the crops, particularly of corn, would be
abundant.
The army of Texas are encamped on the La Baca,
and muster twenty-five hundred men ; they are daily
reinforced by emigration from the United States. All
volunteers arriving at the camp are obliged to serve
during the war or- for two years; they arc treated as
regulars, and are kept in strict discipline. They have
plenty of provisions and are all in a perfect state of
health. Gen. Johnson, successor to Gen. Felix
Huston, is at present the commander of the army ; he
is much respected by the soldiers for his gentlemanly
department and military talents. Gen. Felix Huston
is also a favorite with the officers of the army; they
have expressed their regret in a public body at his
leaving them even for a limited time for the United
States.*
I he dent with his cabinet contemplated re
moving tl.-. "seat of government to the new city of
Houston, on Buffalo Bayou, on or about the 15th
April. The city already numbers 1G Huge bouses,
and others arc erecting; sales of building lots of 50
feet front by 100 in depth, were sold in Houston, from
fc2,500 to $3,500, for good locations. President
Houston is the most popular man in Texas ; his frank
manners, his pure patriotic motives, his even handed
justice, have gained him the admiration of all dorses,
iiis cabinet is composed of gentlemen of correct habits
who have the confidence of the community.
The schooners of war Brutus and Invincible aro
both at Galveston waiting supplies of men and stores.
Capt. Brown has resigned and his resignation is ac
cepted. Capt. Hurd has also resigned, and after ao
c«iinting with the government would leave. Some
other officers have also retired. Henry L. Thompson
has been ordered to take command of the schooner
Invincible.
A fatal rencontre occurred on the evening of The
2Gth April, between (dipt. Snell, commander of the
Fort at Vela-co, and his Lieutenant, Sprovrl. Cap
tain Snell made the attack upon his officer tsaid to he
for disobedience of orders') and was disarmed of his
sword by tUo Lieutenant; he then resorted to his pistols
and shot the officer in the forehead. Snell was io be
tried at Brazoria by the civil court, on Tuesday tho !
30th April. The excitement of4he citizeasHW»»-*n!

to-day, 50 per cent discount; and there was no doubt,
of this circumstance alone, producing a convulsion in
this distracted country, and our citizens fear n snqueo,

Mexico, 1 Oth March, 1837.
Mv 5)i-:ar ?ir — I had the pleasure ofaddressing
you on 1 he 8th inst. via Tampico. On the morning of
the Oth there was manifest distrust through the capi
ta! ; about 10 o'clock the government published a ]5an
do relative to the copper coin, rodiu ir.g its nominal val
ue to 5:) per cent discount. About 1! o'clock the
whole city manifested stmil); svmu(orris of com
otion,
collecting near the palace and marke t place, the dense
mass ol poor miserable lepros moving niton l like the
waves of a troubled sea — driven !e desperation by the
depreciation cl the millions of valueless copper curren
cy <!»e Government have issued. In u few minutes ni
ter 11 there was a gennvl rush ti rough the tirref.-, hnd
:|H doors instantly closed and barricaded, expecting a
saqueo. In the mean time the troops made their’nn
pearance, and cannon were drown out in the plaza do
Pglacio, and about 12 o'clock, the military succeeded
in restoring tranquility, and the Government issued
threatening handhii!; through the citv against hit: per
sons who should refuse copper at the fixed value, and
j die Governor of I ho city another, ordetiug al’ loots
■opened under a line of0 to ti o-e who did . A
’regular patrol was established through the city, and
kept Up till morning. All was quick but by no mentis
settled down so.
Saturday, 11th 12 o’clock—I walked out to the Por
tal.;, met a Mexican gentleman, who told roe the coun
try was on the eve of ft bloody revolution, and that
nothing could avert it; the wretched policy of the pre
sent government have brought the country to this lam
entable condition, which he rematked. I expect every
moment to see burst out into violence from the popu
lace, who are driven to desperation hy their miserable
condition. I passed on to a merchants strire, nnd had
been these but a few moments before the human tide
came furiously by ; every door was instantly slambed
to and barricaded. I aided my friend with his and pas
sed out the back way, passed through the turbulent"
crowd to the Plaza cie Paiacio, bcjfire which, Opposite
the Presidents apartment, were sejjfral thousand ieuros
crying out that they could get nothing to ent with the
copper. I passed on to my oluce—from the window
I observed the market place one mass of people. Ir
a few moments the troops charged and fired on the
the scene that followed was th: tiling—men, women and
children were scon flying amiaercamh.-g in all direc
tions. In the mean tune thousands were collected
near the Cathedral in the. Plaza, and about 2 o’clock
the populace commenced throwing .stones at the ’north
corner of the Portal, by the Parian, and broke in ail
liie windows of 2!7 or 30 Stores, French, English a„j
American. Haying no instruments to force the massy
dooi-3 of the Stores or courts, ti. military suffered this
with impunity, pleased that the attention could be turn
ed from the emtsr of their misery, the government, to
the foreigners, against, whom they cried out with every
opprohious epithet. All is apparently quiet, strong
patrols, cavalry and foot paraded through tho city, but
can it last; the p >or ragged wretches have had nothing
to eat to-day—all shops are closed; it is now 7 P. M.
and there is no prospect of any thing further.
If a dreadful saqueo does not take place, it will be
by interposition of a merciful Providence. If it does
