one of the head wtrof the Nuece river,
in which six of the L;panwrro killed.
A Mexican girl, about fourteen years old',
and a boy about ten, who had been.- pris

The girl was. firt iaLma Luttio about

ed and sent home by the people of San

them. Col. II ay also too(k a "numbef I of

Tho Spiral Colt-uew Invention.'
Mr.i.W.'T.Stef'ger, of tle Patent Lmd
Office,' nt Washington city, and.a njive
of Baltimore? liaa originated ab . invention,
for whiclihe ha obtioned a patent, and
which is . likely to become very usehit
when its advantages are o'ne generajty
known. It consists of a spiral bolt or
sjike to bo used in" every descjrtfiiob of
Iraiiie Vork, but moro particularly in buil
ibng ships and other marine . structures
Tht invention is remarkable Tor" its aim
nlkiiv. and, in the opinion of competent
iudeV. will bo higltlv important in impart.
tng great strength anu ourawmv w
object: as rcquiro tho.use of bolts orfsp.kes
in their construction. The following i .a
description of jt, taken from a communi
catjon in the Union of -the 4th inst:
These bolls are , made by simply redu
cing bus of4copper or iron of 'a square,
triangular, ortfuy otheir polygonal section,
to a regular spiral form, by iwistiug them,'
ur bv .any other convenient meabsby
which, the angles become the threads of It
screw; afiirward they ar curt into lengths
and formed into, bolis ol various siies, ei
tlter wijih.or without necks and headsl
What is remarkable; is, where the limbers
to be secured together lis in contact, thej?
require no head at all, but are spiral thro',
out iheir whole length, tho upper timber
being held.dowh by the-spiral UKead. ;
The points are made b) selling down
the spiral with half, round swedges' to a

the thrcadi; being sharpened,, by filing or
any other means, become a Te:uiao 1

are driven. like ovher bolts, with , a ham

minutes to traverse, u distance of about
three miles. ' The. lava continued to flow
for some time, and rapidly increased" ev.
