    Lata from Mealeo.
Indian Distubbancis. Tampico dates to the
26th nit. have been received at New Orleans,
which give an account of a sever contest be
tween the Mexicans and the Camanche and Ta
huacanos Indians, which shows that the Mexican
government lur the present has its hands full,
without undeKaking the subjugation of Texas,
for which it is ill prepared. The latter made an
incursion into the North of Mexico, and carried
off large number of women and children. The
Mexicans pursued them, and about the 9th nit.,
had a severe fight at the Paso de los Moros.
Forty tlx Mexican! toere killed, and twenty
wounded.
Cotemporary with this, at the rancho of Los
Moros, twenty-two were shot or burned in the
bouse attached to the rancho, and many women
and children carried off" captives.
On the 17th of October another engagement
took place. There were, according to Mexican
accounts, upwards of four hundred Indians en
gaged in this. The affair lasted over two hours,
a lively fire bing kept up all the while. The
Indians then abandoned the field, giving up the
fifty-five Mexicans, women and children, whom
they had previously carried o(T captives, a quan
tity of fire-arms, and some horses which they
had stolen. Twenty of the Indians were left
dead upon the. fivld, while many more were be-
lieved to have been carried oil in the fight, nc- J
cording to Indian usage, both dead ami wounded.
Onthesideof the Mexicans, nine were killed I
and thirty-four wounded. Immediately steps I
were taken by the aub-Prcf.-ct of Rcynosn to j
raise a sufficient force to cut off the retreat of j
the savages, who retired by the way of the North. !
The Mexican editors pretend that upon several j
of the Indians killed in th? fight were found me- j
dais of silver, with the bust of Mr. Van Rnren )
upon them, and on the reverse the anna of the ;
United States. This they imagine to b'.- a sien j
of the utmost sienifiennce of the hostile designs I
of this country upon their own.
11km vrkahi.e PitrcM-NTiMr.N t. In Dnyleston
(Pa.) Beniah Holdren, an aged man of 91 years,
after partaking a happy meal with his children,
apparently in perfect health, observed : "Now,
my friends, this is the last meal I shall ever eat :
I am about to die." He then proceeded to give
directions to his worldly concerns, his burial,
&c.,and when he had concluded was struck down
by a paralytic stroke.
Somk scamt tied a large grimalkin by her tail
to a clothes' line on Sunday night in Race street
Philadelphia, near 11th, and the whole neighbor
hood for hous was kept in a state of discordant a
larm by the shriek of the animal. She resist-d
all attempts to cut her loose too, und manifested
a disposition as savnge and as sanguinary as as J
as a regular Ca'-a line. Tha mewst were j
present. J
Caution io Sic;i.k Folks The statistics of
hospitals show that ''the unmarried are more
than four times as liable to b'come insane as
married people.'" Many young ladies who affect
great indifference on the subject of matrimony,
will, no doubt, on receiving the above informa
tion, consent to take partners merely to preserve
their intellects unimpaired.
Fast Grimunu. Beach's stone niiil, in this
town, manufactured 3 l.'tl barrels of flour in 0 davs
of last week, b-ing 3"ifi barrels per day. This is
using up 10.000 bushels of wheat in about the
shortest time wa have h -aid of. Akron ISeiicon.
Growth or I.nvnoN. We are apt to imagine
iiere in the Cuit-d States, that t lie growth of our
towns and cities greatly mi, passed in rapidity and
extent, those of any part ol the old world. Snie
facts about London would seem to contradict this
notion.
It is stated, for instance, in a recent report to
the Government, that '-in little more than twelve
years, twelve hundred new streets have been ad
ded to London, which is at the rate of 100 streets
a year.
These l'JOO new streets "contain 4S,000 houses,
most of them built on a large and commodious
scale, and in a style of superior comfort." With
all this wonderful increase, it is said, "that the
demand for houses, instead of dimishing. contin
ues to increas " and that w hile in many towns of
the inteiior, the number of unoccupied lionse it
augmenting, "scarcely is a new street in London,
finished, before almost every house in it is fully
occupied.
One great reason assigned fur the rapid growth
f London, is the extiaoidinary facility, econo
my and despatch with which people are now
ransported over Railroads terminating there.
)ving to this cause, "it is estimated that thedai
y influx of individuals is five times greater than
t was fifteen years ago."'
London is now about forty miles in circumfer
nce, and numbers more than two million of in
habitants. A'. Y. Amcr.
Thk Vasioi-s Sta'jis ok Lite. A French
statistical work states that the inclination of
crime is at its maximum in men, about the age
of 23 in women five years later ; that the great
est physical strength of man is developed be
tween the age of and 30, and the greatest men
tal powers between the age of 43 and SO; and
that gaming is the principal cause of suicide a
mong males, and disappointment in love affairs
amongst females.
Valuabuc Dous. The London Times of the
3d of October, contains an account of the sale of
pointer dogs, the property of Mr. Edge, of Stre
ney, near Nottingham. The highest price was
given for a dog two yesis old, which was pur
chased by tha Marquis of Anglesey, for X84
sterling (upwards of $400 ) Other dogs sold for
various prices from 10 guineas to 33.
