mpaign. In a military point of view, everything is quiet in the Trans-Mississippi. The rivers are higher now than they have been for many years; but no apprehension is felt of a land incursion by the Yankees. Blockade-running between Galveston and the West Indies is carried on very successfully; perhaps rivalling, in this respect, the ports of Wilmington and Charleston. Quite a number of steamers ran in and out of Galveston harbor in the course of a fortnight. The Government stores in Texas and at Shreveport are full of clothing and other necessaries. The expedition fitting out at New Orleans is believed, by high authority in the Trans- Mississippi, to be intended for Galveston and not for Mobile. The Army of the Trans-Mississippi is in excellent spirits and condition. The troops are well supplied with clothing, food and munitions of war. All that is required to satisfy them completely is new issue, and plenty of it, to pay off dues. The message of Go

s since, brought the captain and crew of the Rattlesnake, which, in attempting to enter Charleston harbor, was driven ashore, and afterwards burned, with her cargo. The Chicora (formerly Let Her Be) and the Coquette arrived about the same time. The steamers are gradually leaving this port. The Colonel Lamb, General Whiting, Edith, Watson, Caroline, Little Hatty and others, have gone to Havana. The Owl, commanded by Captain Maffit, formerly of the Florida, has also left.--She went to Galveston but, unable to enter that port, made for Havana, and arrived there safely a few days ago.--The Chamelion, formerly the Tallahassee, sailed on the 7th instant for Bermuda. She will bear looking after. It is said she will go to Madeira, and thence to England. Some of those who left for Havana, thinking that some other opening might offer, have returned to this port, and will probably remain until they slink back to England, from which place they originally came. The affair of the Hano

it is not unreasonable to suppose that the penalty will be excommunication. I do not know if Juarez is excommunicated; but he is the one who deserves it, and not Maximilian, for this latter found the points in question already established as among the laws of the land, and has only respected them as such. A Catholic President of the United States would be just as liable to the Pope's censure for respecting and enforcing the laws which guarantee liberty of conscience and worship to all. Upon this thing of liberty of conscience, as it is called, I am sorry to say his Holiness and I differ; and if he will only show me fair play, I can convince him he is wrong, whether he admits himself beaten or not. By way of Matamoras we learn that there is considerable movement among the Texan military. Something is going on which is kept secret. Perhaps they have determined to hold Galveston, which they think threatened, since it is the only port to which blockade-runners have any access.

A very desirable reconstruction movement is exhibited in the energy which marks the reopening of the railroads throughout the Southern States, and the plans on foot for extending the old lines and establishing new ones. A dispatch from Kansas City reports that those representing the railroad interests of that section and Texas are in consultation to perfect arrangements for the rapid completion of the important road running from Kansas City to Galveston, and the lines which are to connect with it.
