King of Naples by .Napoleon, was burn in die year 1771, on a culd winter night, in a tavern,- in the neighborhood of (Jahors. lie grew up at the tavern dour; his friends the horses and pos- tillions. One -fine-morning, when he was fifteen; young Murat mounted a horse and turned .trouper. After a while he deserted and came to Paris,-pour and almust destitute of .clothing, and hired himself as a servant hoy at an : eating-house. - This was at the lime of the French revo lution.. Louis the 1 Sill’s throne had already begun to tottei'. There" were no more faith ful subjects—all Frenchmen were revolu tionists. Murat entered heartily, inti) the spirit of the times, and declared hiingpll violently opposed to all kings and nobles.i— Little did be then think that he himself was to wear a crown and,lie addressed as ’-‘Your Majesty.” ' by degrees every tiling took a new form. Tlio old order of society Was overturned, established men gave way to new ones, and among others to Captain boniiparte. Murat, with a crowd of other soldiers, ac companied Bonaparte into Italy, and accom plished under lus direction, more wonders than even Hannibal’s soldiers themselves. Soon another change, and Murat, was Uu napaite’s aid-de-camp. It was Murat that Napoleon sent to take possession of con quered cities. It Was Mural whom he sent to the envious authorities.in Paris who dis- puted his glory.

BATTLE OP THE RANCH. • The people in that paft of Mexico kndwn as the ‘Department of Santa Fe,’ have'fur many years been liarpassed and annoyed by the depredations pt the American Indians. An : American by-the name ofKurfcur, at at the time of our visit, had just entered into contract with the government-to whip-the Indians and bring them to a permanent treaty, for the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, of which was paid to him in ad vance, to'commence operations. Korkur is now’carrying on tlic war, and his first skir mishes occurred while we were at Teas within two miles of the, town in which we were sojourning. He is a man of dating and reckless disposition, who has himscll suffered from the villainy of the Indians, and he now hunts them as much in revenge for injuries they have dune him as in prusp.ect of the'emolument. , - The battle which forms the subject of the present sketch, occurred close under the black mountain of Teas, in' the valley of the same name, near to a small town called the ‘Ranch.’ K.urkur, with, about fifty men, was here encamped, when a,party ot thiev ing Apachus crept upon them, in the night and stole a number of horses. The Indians were not aware that K.urkur?s party were prepared for war, but supposed they were stealing from an encampment of 1 traders who. would not dure‘to pjtisue them. The rob i bury had scarcely been committed when it. I was discovered, and in a few moments mure, I JCurker and his fifty m(;n w ere inf.close pur fsuil of the .In.dia'ns’. Knowing, that ' the thieves-’would endeavor to escape over the mountains, by ascending a ravine that open-,' fd in the vuHey near, the spntjvhere thCTibts ; ’ uery was committed, Kurkur led his men quickly round a by-path, up the mountain side, and as the grey light of morning spread over the.valley r llie 'pursuers found them selves upon an-,eminence commanding the ravine up which the'lndians were hurrying, mounted on abe stolen horses.
