From Texas.-The arrival of the steam er Columbia, last night, puts us in posses sion of news frorn Texas to the 12th inst. of which the following may he considered the principal items. Soume sickness prevailed in Houston. It was reported that an army of 4000 Mexicans had advanced to Matators. This intelligence made little impression on the minds of the Texi'ans, whose attention was principally turned to the lndiatt frou tier. A large hody of Texians, regulatrs, volunteers, and militia, had marched to the Northern frontier. where it was under stood Indian parties fromn 20 tribes, were about to meet them, The result was ex peeted anxiously. The Texians it was said, were determined to compel the In dians to abandon the Northern counties, and it was thought the savages would give battle ratherthan consent. We shall not know tho result. ofthis meeting for somne weeks. More than 1000 persons are said to have already squatted ott the site of the new capital of Texas on the Colorado; and it was thought the competition would he very great at the approachine sale of the lots. The citizens of Houtston atppear to a ave lad a very serious brush with the gam blers. It is said the cotton crop of Eastern Texas, will this year fall little short of 20, 000 hales. Besides the marauding parties of Ca manches on theWestern frontier, t he trade bet wen Texas and the cottntry beyond Rio Grandedel Norte is nowsaid tosuiler from the depredations of land pirates, or armed bands of white men, who plunder alike Mexicans and Texians, when the oppor tunity offers. Tie Houston Star of'the 10th inst. says: "Colenel Karnes arrived in thi- city on1 Saturdav, the Cth inst. from San Atonio. lie brings no news of particular importance Patrties of ludians occasionally nake their appearnuce in the neighborhood of Bexar; bmtl do comparatively little damage. ex cept in the way of plinder. It seens; that the white "land pirates" are much more troublesome than any of our enemies. One ofthe worst features in their robieri es is that they are priincipally confined to Mexican traders, between whom and our citizens, Congress, at its last session, at tempted to encourage trade. They are by no mneans particular, however-anv thing in the way of plunder is acceptable. W e learn that a company is about to be raised to proceed to the West, to preserve the citizens and rtaders from further vio lence." A REMARKABLE HISTORY. Zerah Cotburn.-No phenomena in the whole history of intellectual man, have been more remarkable tman those attend ing the lifeof Zerah Golhurn, whosedeath 0I has been recently announced. lie was born at Cabot, Vermont. on the I lt ol'Septenber. 1804, and was the sixth child of pour, but respectable parents. Ili,& father was a farmet, an&e first discover ed his son's peculiar fanitily sonte time in August, 1810, the boy beingt then about six vears old. The child had been at a district school only about six weeks, which comprised all hisopportunity for education and the first indication he gave of his un commlon) command of numubers wvas bv running through the nuiplicatiott table, while sittin; on the floor of a carpenter's. shop. atnd watchuitng chips as they were thrown olf by the tool. was taken to several places in Ver mon , and examined by distinguished me', who were astonished at his power. w'hichI wvas no less incomprehentsibmle to themn thatr to himnself. By the advice of friends, hisfather was induced to take Zerah a bout for exhibition, though several capital offers w~ere made (especially by Pr febsor' Adams. of Dartmouth College,) to take himn in charge and give hitn a complete education. All thte offers were refused by the mercenary spirit of the father. In Boston the father receivted a mttmifi-r cient otler to educate the boy, which his mercenary temper indluced hitm to refuse. Jas. Perkins, Daniel Sargeani, ,Josiah Qtuitncy, Isaac P. Davis, WVni. Sullivan,r atnd ty. S.

This o-r1 was refusedl. Zerah was soon taken to England, whecre he exci'ed as mauch wontder as he land dotne here. The destultory chatracter oflhis fath * .cr, however, ruined his prospects, anad made enemiea. After travelling~ through the United Kinugdotns, receiving mnch money, andI borrowing more, this wicked .1 fat her took the boy to France. wihere, itt 1814, without giving any intimnationt of his natme, prerson, otr character, he was taken to Dr. Gall. the father orphrenology, who immnediately remnarked tuponu the promi-t nence of the organs of numnber. andI desiredl to make a umask of his face. Hcre, also. great astonishmnent was excited, anti vast sums of money taken by the exhibition or --receivedi itn loantta bht it was all expended, and they returned in poverty and distress to Enulatnd. In Jutly, 1816, the Earl of Bristol, wvith a prineely liberality, took itp the patronage of the hoy. with the hope that, itt the coursec of a good education, he might be enabled to reveal the secret of his mysterious pov. e'r of comtputtationl. lie ofl'ered to pay the expenuse of his edttention at Westmuinster;, CI and, in the meantime, to allow the father twenty-five potuntds per antnzm, A t this institution they had a quarrel and left on accounet of the practice of fagging, amtd went to the Rev, M'. Bnlieo.in Btucking hamnshire, w~here the Earl of Bristol con -sented still to defray the expenses of private tuaition. Zerah wvas taken from Mr. Bullen's in 1819, on aeccount of some freak -of his father, and wvas taken to Edinbutrgh to he purepu~redl 1hr the stage .After sttudy'ing snme t ime with several nctorsinr. .im hm . it was imposslile for the father to agree, Zerah was-put under the care of Charles Kemble. and received lessons flow him. lie was taken round to Ireland and the provincial iheatris withoutsuccess.during 1820 and 1821; and in 122. having been redneed to destitutioln. application was made to the Earl of Bristol for farther as istance. The Earl very properly said lie would do nothing for the father, but sepa 'ate and indep.-odent of him or hiscontrol. be would assist the son. then 18 years olM. Compelled to labor by necessity. Zerah i that year took a small school in the :ountry, which he continued until near the Jeath of his father, which happened in Feb. l8W4; and inl May, by the renewed liberality of the Earl of Bristol, he sailed or this counttrv. There is nothing more to relate of Zerah Colhurn, ht that the lie has lived in Ver mont e 'ver since, a Methodisi clergiytiln. kith no distineiot or eminence of any kind. llis talents were far below mediocrity as i scholar and as a thinker lie had not ,ven the gift of clear conception or sttron axpression of thoughi but dwindled down nto one of the lower ( lasses of those who. bough pious and useful to a certain extent it the ministry, are not enabled to shine His power ofc aleulation was lost sotne .ime belbre he left England.
