    militia captured General Com and ttcven hurt
Jrril Mexican soldiers.
In 1836, at Alamo, ISO held out 13 days a
gainst Santa Anna and 8,000 men, fichtinir at
last until every Texan fell dead, killing 001 of
the enemy; 4P0 at Culletta beat olTlOOO under
Gen. Urea.but next day were treachcronsly de
ceived into a surrender, 700, of their own spon
taneous will, killed or captured 1500 Mexicans,
t San Jacinto, taking prisoner the President of
Mexico, General Santa Anna; and twenty un
der Deaf Smith routed 120 Mexicans the same
year.
In 1830, one hundred and four boat 1000 Mex
icans at Saltillo and retreated into Texas with
the loss of only four men. In 1812, only 201
of them repulsed Gen. Wolland 1300 troops at
Arrnya Salndo; 201 drove 2.500 Mexicans in
'to Mcir, fought nineteen hours, killed 700 of
'the enemy, but at last where deceived into a
surrender and horribly butchered or enslaved.
In 1913, two hundred unarmed Texan prison
ers at Salado attacked four hundred armed
Mexican guards, beat and dispersed them. Same
year. Commodore Moore, of Yucatan, silenced
ten times his naval force and compelled them
to retire. Tin last victory resulted in a treaty,
or alliance, bttveen Yucatan and Texas, by
which the former bound herself to remain pas- j
five in any contest which Mexico rniplit there
after engage tr. with Texas, and most faithful
ly have the gallant Yucatecos performed their
contract.

FLOUR. The transactions in Howard Street
Flour, have been quite limited to-day. Sales on
Saturday of a few hundred bbls. mixed brands at
$1.12 J. To day holders generally are willing to
sell at this rate, and 4110 bbls. were taken. The
receipt price from cars is $1.
The stock of City Mills Flour is very light.
Holders ask SI. 37 J, but the article is without
inquiry.
GRAIN. The receipts of wheat are trifling.
A lot of very prime Md. red was taken to-day
t 91 cts. and a parcel of white, not fit for family
flour, at 97 cts.
Corn is dull. Sales to day at CGa07 cts. for
vhite, and 57 cts. for yellow.
We quote Oats at 39a 1 1 cts.
WHISKEY. The stock is quite light, but c
lal to the demand, which is very limited.
Small sales are making at 21 cts for hhds. and
22 cts. for bbls.
DrsrKrti. The nerves of the human body
those necessary agents which immediHtcly connect
man wilh external nature are siugularly prone to
Jiave their functions disordered by an oppressed
condition of the stomach ; the minute termination
uf that portion of the nerves expanded upon the or
i;ans of digestion conveying the morbid impression
to the Drain. And although the Head can, un
louhledly, like other organs, le the seat of primary
li-ouler, yet, in the great majority of esses, the un
asy sensations there experienced are symptomatic
f disordered Slomach; and forlher, there is ahun
hint evidence to prove that crudities in the Sto
nach and Bowels can, in every grade of human
xistenrs give rise to spasmodic action in every
rgan of the body ; and whether we survey it in
he agonising form of Tic Dolorcaux the alarming
onvulsions of the F.pileptie seizure or in ihit ir
liable condition of the nerves of the heart occasion
nu palpitation they ran all frequently be traced
o the source above mentioned, and be cured hy
liU evancuant and tonic remedies. To relieve a
tale of so much suturing and distress, (in which
ody and mind also participate.) Uramirktii'
ills are confidently recommended; as, by com
ining aromatic, tonic and clcansihg roiierties,
icy remove hII oppressive accumulations, strength
n the Stomach, induce a healthy appetite, and im
art tranquility to the nervous system,

IHE extraordinary and well authenticated cure
wrought by the celebratej Scoar Coatkr
is, or Dr. Smith's Improved Indian Vegetable
s, have naturally drawn pulilie attention to
n. Perhaps in the history of Medicine, from
time of Hippocrates In the present day, there is
videnreaf a medical compound obtaining equal
mity in so short a time. There was never a
ecine recommended by such high authority as
Smith's Pills. Besides their greAt curative
cnies, (possessing as they do, such astonish
powers to open all the nalur.il drains of tbe bo.
riz: the lungs, Kidney, Skin and Bowels,)
are unlike all other pills, extremely pleasant,
g coaled with sugar, and aa they do not gripe,
uroduee nausea, or any other unp'easant con
mces, they have become very popular fur Dys
.a, Headache, Cottiveness, Bilious complaints,
Stomach, Fevers, Worms, Want of Appelite,
iriiies of the Blood, Obstructions and Female
plaints generally, Colds, &e. One of the most
filial and lenevolent ladies in New York,
. t A. Gould, Matron of the IT. 8. Naval Ho.
, says, "There is no medicine in her knowledge
ell adapted to the numerous ailments of man
, as Dr. Smith's Sugar Coated Pills." She
ciaily recommends them to ladies. .
y CAUTION.-A a miserable imitation has
made, by the name of "Sugar Coated Pills"
icccssary to be sure that Da. G. Uesj. Smith's
ituie is on every box. Price 25 cents.

continues the system of "no ahatemenl in in'frt,"

desires to call the special attention orthe public to
it as the only trite tVm of retail business, and
which is decidedly In the interest of the purchaser

done away with, ns, nine limes out of ten, they are

duction) than the like Myte and quality can be pur
chased at the "Ono Price Store."
A. B. M. is in regular receipt of the newest and
cheapest seasonable goods, and when any article
depreciates in value the price is at once marked
down so low that it cannot be undersold. By this
system the purchaser can at all limes buy with
confidence and sati-faction, and without waste of
time in useless bargaining. He has at this time
