of mules, intending to go eastwarfdly with
them. About the Sal Coloradol'it ls said,
the party were murdered and robbed.of
every thing. The property, it is rumored,
belsinged to Mr. Hunter, who resides near
Nachitoches, in your State. The neigh
borhood of theSan Colorado, is no doubt
infested by as desperate a hand of white
persons and Mexicanstas ever lived any
tihere.
Rumors of an expedition against Tampi

a naval force will co operate with the army.
The heavy pieces of artillery at Cunargis

Meinehly a.sally-Capt. Randolph
Ridgely.-TIhis gallant oificer, who has
won so-many laurels in the wvar, is supplo
sed to have lost his life at Monterey, about'
three weeks ago,. ini a mosst melancholy
manner. Our infosrmation, as derived from
Johna Deshon, Esqj., one of the owners of
the steamiship Sea, and who came passen.
ger in the ship U icas, which arrived here
) esterday from Brazoi, is to this effect.
Capt. 11111, U. S. Quartermaster at lBrazs's,
informed Mr. Deson that an express had
just arrived fromi Monuterey, commsunaien
ting thie sad inatelligenice, that Capt. iige.
Il, being oni an unruly horse, and ridiuig
cown a steelp hill, was throwni, the horse
falling upon him, and shoueingly mangled.
At the time the expre-sag1ft Monterey,
Capt Ridgely was wholIy'n~stosible, the
brains ooziqg out of his ears, and no hopss
were enteriained oif Isis recovery. Tlhe
Uncas spoke the steamship Virginian
aibout twenity-five miles from the S. W.
Pass on her-way from lirazos to this porit.
On board the Virginsia wais a bearer of des
patches from Mlonterey for Washingmon,
wvho -will probably arrive to-day. From
him we may expect ftdl-pariiculars of this
terrible catasutrophic. WVe must hope that
Capt. Itidgely will yet be spared to his,
