The Houston Mills are turning out about sixty barrels of flour per day. Its capacity isonehun-dred and fifty and will soon work up to it.—Age. A Mr. Asbury, living near Scyene, bad, on Monday last, fif-teen of what are known as “Screw flies,” taken from his nose and throat, in which they were imbed-dcd. Mr. Asbury was removing this species of worm or fly from a bruisod shoulder of one of his horses, some time ago, and in some way, it is supposed, they got upon his person and finally into his flesh. His nose, throat and mouth were very much swol-len and inflamed by their pros-ence.— Dallas Herald. The following from the Deni-ison News, confirms the report that McKenzie has badly whip-ped the Indians. The following official dispatch from J. A. Taylor, A. A. Gener-al, San Antonio, has been reoeiv-ed by Col. Strang, of this city. Mackenzie struck the Indians at daylight, on the 28th of Sept, in a canon on Red river, at the mouth of the Canaditas Bjancos. He destroyed five small camps and captured fourteen hundred and twenty four ponies, colts and mules, of which he killed ten hun-dred and forty-eight. Several In-diana were wounded. Gen. Me Kenzie lost three horses, and four men. The General was camped, Octo-her 1st., on Tulo creek, Staked Plains. The elections so far as heard from indicate that Ohio has gone Democratic by about 10,000 ma-jority; Indiana has gone Demo-cratic; but in the Senatorial eleo-tion the Independents have the balance of power; Arkansas has elected the conservative ticket; Iowa and Nebraska both wont Republican, while West Virginia is not reported. These results are very satisfactory. The time can not be very far distant when all the States will blow On the brakes and check the headlong course of the United States down-ward to destruction. It will bo seen by reference to our dispatches that Santanta and Big Tree are once more captured. The best way to do with those red handed rod skins is to turn them over to the people on the frontier. It Sheridan and Mac- Kenzie can have their way, that copper colored couple will return to plague Texas no more. But the “peaco policy”—peace to the Indians and murder to the set-tiers— and the quakers will be apt to liberate them again.upon prom-ise of good behavior. There will be trouble just as long as there are quakers and Indians, one be-ing just as bad as the other. A girl, Elizabeth Love, came all the way from Jackson county, Mo., to marry John Arnold, at Rock Bluff, in the Nation. She found him a husband of three hours standing, John having giv-on her out, because she started on the 11th inst. instead of the 10th. The girl had been engaged to him four years, sho be-ing a true Love. John backed out of his morning’s bargain, took the old girl, and left the Nation, j his three hours father-in-law giv- | ing him about half a minute to vamoose in. TELEGRAPHIC.
