The Abolition Plot In Texas.
A letter oftlic Oth ult., from Unnvillrt Montgomery
county, to the lluntsville htm, ><ays:
Yesterday Sir. Jonathan Kidway come up to
make report of discoveries on the Sail Jacinto.
A number of negroes on Judge Uoldthwaite's
plantation, separately examined, report ulike
the smite fact, to wit : tlint in the thick woods
of the San Jaciuto riror, near them, five white
men had been camped for several day.., who
had frequently communicated with them, stating
that there was to be an insurrection everywhere,
on the first Monday in August : that these negroea
muat join, and they would assist them.
A boy was taken out to show the camp and
tl.o white men. When about 800 yards distant
from it, ho was told to whoop, and he was dis
tinctly answered, lie was then sent forward
to bring the person back with him, hut on returning,
stated that his whoop was answered
by a negro minding horse* in ihc bottom. The
camp was examined, and it was evident that
many persons had camped there for several
days, which? as there had been no hunting
parties out, and the place not suited for a party
of hunters?verifies the sepnrnte statement made
by the negroes. A negro from another plantation
stated that he had been spoken to on the
subject by a white man (new coiner) near Danville.
Karly one mornitig, some ten days since,
a negro wotuau at a well outside of town was
spoken to by two travelers who came for water,
and told her that the negroes were to In: free
shortly.
Arms ami ammunition have been found, but
nothing to induce a belief that any supplies of
eitlier have been brought hero to supply the ucgroes.
The Henderson Timr* of tlie 11th says:
"Wo have seen a note written from near Danville,
by Col. Dunn's overseer, to Itis son
Charles Dunn, which said that a negro hoy
named Allen, formerly belonging to Mr. Dutiii,
bad confessed bis connection with this insurrectionary
movement, and was to have been
hung yi stordny."
The eitir.ens of Wood county were to hold a
public meeting <-n the 20th, to consider the
condition of the country and deviso means for
protecting life and property.
The citizens of Milville, Husk county, held a
public meeting on the tit It, to examine into the
character of certain suspicious persons anil to
organize patrols. Col. Allen (Jibson presided,
and Dr. K. il. Graham was the Sevrctary.
Sundry individuals were ordered to leave the
country.
The Quitman //< rati/ of the 1 At It says:
"A gentleman from Idttle Kim. in Denton
county, on Saturday last, informed us that the
citizens of Denton arc as much excited as elsewhere
in the Stale. A ttegr > had been arrested
in that county, in whose possession twentyfour
bottles of strychnine were found."
Tho Husk Kuquitrrr 'earns that a Yankee
Abolition school master was hung on the Ditlt,

tlie negroes to insurrection.

The New York 7Y??r? announces, on what
that Journal considers the boat authority, that
France. Kngtand. Spain anil Prussia have siguvd
a convention for the pacificutiou of Mexico,
an<l that they invite the I'uited Staler to join
with them. ShouM the Uuited States however
refuse, they willcarry out what they propose
without her co-operation. The story is of very
probable, yet the '1 tines even states the conditions.
It says:
The bases of toleration for till religious opinions,
and a modified establishment for the Roman
Catholic Church, are understood to havo
been already accepted by the constitutionalist*
uii< ?r Juarez on the one part a id by the chri
c il party under .Miraim>n on the other. Ati armistice
of twelve month*' duration is to be declared
between the respective leaders, and during
thin period those portions of Mexico occupied
by each are to he held without dispute by
the actual occupant*, joint notion being taken
to secure the carrying on of the necessary business
of the public administration and the
mainianaucn of order. At a time to be hereafter
fixed, the people of Mexico arc to bo called
upon to elect between the pi inciplcs represented
by the two factions, and the respective
loaders pledge themselves to resign all their authority
and arms int > the hands of the Government
thus designated under the sanction of the
intervening powTu*.
The New York Sum emphatically contradicts
the a atomci.t of its cntQinp riry, and calls it a
story of the sensation order.

of his negroes. The permission was given, the
negroes sent, und the coffin interred. On the
next day one of the negroes remarked to his
master that the coffin that had been buried was
exceedingly heavy. This excited inquiry, and
the coffin was dug up by a committee, wheu it
