NEWS FROM SANTA FE.


We are in possession to-day of further news
rom the pruiries. Our townsman, Mr.. Samuel
hallson, has just returned from Santa Fe after an
unprecedented trip Of eighty days. He, in compa-
ny with Messrs. Weick, Blumner, and others, left
here with their goods in May and arrived in Santa
re, making journey Of forty days. After COM
peung their arrangements, a small company, con.
sistng of Messrs. Rallston and Hill Of our place
and MIR. Hutchinson and John Mcknight, from Chi
huahua, started IN, and here in thirty-seyen
days from Santa Fe.


Previously TO Mr.. Raston's departure there was
good deal of excitement created by the numerous
reports IN circulation respecting our troops. Ex-
presses had been out in every direction by the
governor and private citizens, to ascertain their
truth, but many Of them, after being out two or
three days, returned, having learned nothing salts.
| factory.


The whole country is in a state Of alarm. Farm
ers adjoining Santa Fe are driving their stock into
the mountains, securing their possessions and put
tlng themselves in position that they be out Of
harms way at a moments warning. Provender OF
every description is exceedingly scarce, (there not
having been rain for nearly three months;) the
vegetation is nearly exhausted. Our informant
thinks the troops will have some difficulty in Sc.
curing enough for the maintenance Of their animals
even for month.


Provisions must of necessity also be very hard to
got, and unless some other means Of securing them
be found out than such was anticipated previous
TO their departure, they will be in a very bad way
this winter Ii was pretty certainly known before
they left, that there would not be even a show of
hight on the part Of the Mexicans unless a very
small force was sent along rst for the assertion
OF the governor was made, and word sent to Gen.
hearney by our lnformants TO that effect; and he
further says that if respectable force comes upon
him, he shall Immediately abandon the country and
remove south of the Rio del Norte


The common people, and especially the Puebla
Indians are averse to fighting the Americans for an
order for volunteers from the governor met with no
response from them at all and he has now not more
than three hundred soldiers in Santa Fe miserably
clad and poorly fed Neither were any soldiers to
be had below, for Chihuahua had not and could not
furnish any, and Mr. Mcknight says that there is
no probability Of any being gotten there. Some of
the traders had arrived at Santa Fe but no business
being done, they had gone below


Speyers had bought out all the governors wagons
and goods, and other small lots Of goods from ira
ders, and gone on. Mr.. VIM. Mcknight Webb,
and Doane had also gone. Gen. Kearney and ali
the troops and traders had passed up the Arkansas
to Bents fort. The company of Armiios going out
from here, were met at different points, progressing
slowly Mr. William Magoffin at or near Arkan-
sas; Samuel Magofin, little nearer, this way, and
Gentry and others at Council Grove, and some 9th.
ers, still this side.


Almost every day provision wagons were seen
upon the road, vending their way along; carcasses
of horses oxen, and buffalo were strewed along at
intervals The great scarcity Of water so frequent
~ spoken Of proves to be fabrication. On this
side of the Arkansas there is grass and water in
sufficient abundance for all that have or may 60 out


Col Price's regiment was met, just getting fairly
into the plains, about two three days. ride from
the fort. This is all the news | can gather for
you now There will be an express to the garrison
to-day or to morrow; he ought to have been here
before, but his animals broke down. Through him,
probably, you will he ar more particularly.
