Late and interesting from Texas. --Mr. Smoot, who resides in Denton county, Texas, arrived in the city yesterday and reports that Gen. W. C. Young was in full pursuit of Montgomery and the Federal troops, and had over taken the baggage, supply and ammunition trains in seventeen wagons, which were taken possession of, together with some beeves and horses. Gen. Young had written for more troops, and 4,000 additional men responded to the call. Montgomery had evacnated Fort Ouachita, and was on his way to Fort Arbuckle. It was the determination of Gen. Young to take Forts Cobb and Arbuckle. Fifteen hundred Indians had joined his ranks. Montgomery is the Kansas ruflian and outlaw, and if the Texans catch him and his men, they will waste no powder on them, but the whole set will undoubtedly be roped.--N. O. Crescent, of Monday.
och's regiment had gone to garrison posts on the Red river; that Lieut. Col. Baylor's battalion was to leave that day to garrison other posts on the border; that Major Waller, with two companies of artillery, McCailister's company of infantry, and Capt. Buquor's company, were marching on similar service. Col. Young, of the Texas State troop had reported officially to the Governor respection the abandonment by the U. S. troops of Arbuckle and Washita, and of their retreat into Kansas, Fort Cobb, it was supposed, had also been abandoned. Governor Clark, the thoughtful and resolute Executive of the State, was in San Antonic, and the citizens of the place were giving him a very warm welcome. Lieutenant Whipple, of the third U. S. Infantry, was in bad odor. He had given his parole, before being 1st loose, to the gallant Col. Van Dorn, and violated it instantly. A letter written by him is published in the Ledger. It shows that he has disgraced the service; but no doubt he
manent peace with the Comanches, and their settlement upon Reserves. With the aid of the people of Texas I can do it. Let them not listen to lying reports, set on foot no one knows by whom, and attributing to the Comanches all the villainies of the Cai-a-was, who have refused to make peace, when that was insisted on by the Comanches, and demanded of them the peace-maker of the reserve Comanches, that they might kill him. It was the Cal-a-was who lately killed the son of Mr. Courtney, near Fort Cobb, though the lying Ton-ca-was said it was the Comanches; and I shall send word to these murderers that unless they make peace and atone for their murder. I will send a thousand Creeks and Seminoles and wipe them out. The Confederate States know the cost of an Indian war, and how very far the lives of our people outweigh in value those of the few Indians that from time to time we succeed in killing at immense cost. They wish peace on the frontier, that all our means, men, and energies
