Later from Texas. By the Palmetto, Wblch arrived last night, we are placed in possession of our Texas files of a late date. We take the following from the Corpus Christ i Slur, of the 7th. A large portion of the news is rery interesting. Attack ok k I. S. Train A gentleman in this town received a letter from Laredo on Monday laat, which stated, that news had boen received there that the Indians bad attacked a train ol U. S. wagons between Bexar and Eagle Pass, an3 killed thirteen teamster's, taking all their mules. But one canister eseipod. The letter does not atate what escort the wilgonaliad, if any: or whether the Indiana destroy ed the public, property1, but as their ' vfctorf. 'Appears to have been complete, no doubt thia was done: A company of flying artilleiy had arrived at Laredo on their way to the Lcona, but on the 27th ult., they j were ordered back to Rio Grande city. Some of the citizens of Luredp, however, wailed upon the officer in command and represented tho exposed state of that place and their apprhonsiona of an attack from the Ifcdlans, and induced him to remain until an answer could be received from (Jen. Harney, to whom an express had, been sent with a request to j have the company stationed at Laredo for the pres ent. A writer adds: "Agcncral Indian war will exist it, le-tlian a month." Piiom-rrciAMKNTO ro Sa.vta Anna A letter from a gentleman in Laredo, received here a duy or ; two siuce, says ttint Parcdes has pronounced for k Snntu Anna. No particulars are given, but the writer adds that the gTcatost excitement prevails on the ; opposite'side of the Rio Grande. All the Mexican (tegular) troops have left their station opposite Lar edo, and the National Guard iiru ordered from the frontier to Victoria. A revolution in the Northern province of Mexico was deemed inevitable, and a pioclamation of the Republic if llie Sierra M.idre v. ;ih daily expected.

The paper of the 14th contains two proclamations of Gen. Riley, Govei nor of California, one of which, issued June 2d, declares his official character to have been assumed " In accordance with instruction from the Secretary of War, not as a MUUaru Uurcrnoi . but as tho Executive of the existing Civil Govern ment." He then proceeds to call attention to the means he deems best calculated tn avoid the embar rassments tf the present position of California Con gress having failed to legislate for it and suggests the mode of electing such officers as are recognized by the laws now governing the Territory, among which area Territorial Legislature; a Superior Court consisting of four Judges and a Fiscal a Prefect and Sub-Prefect in each district, Alcaldes, dec. i pres-1 cribes 37 as the number of delegates to compose Ihe Convention ; apportions the representation among the several districts, fixes the day of election of hiein- , bers of the Convention andNJodicial Officers on the , first of August next j and summons the Convention . to mecal Monterey the Ural of September next ' Qualifications of electors are 21 years of age, U. S. citizenship, and actual residence in the distr.ct. The other proclamation, dated Monterey, June 4di, warna the settlers not to countenance "TheLe- gislative Assembly of the District of San Francis- ' co," either y paying ttxes or by .sopporting or abetting tlMi officers" of thai "illegal and unauthori- ) led body," and calls upon all good citizens to assist in " restoring to their lawful keeper," the Public Re cords of the District of San Francisco, which were , ' forcibly taken" from tile custody of the First Al- , cable of said district. The Alta Caliorniun condemns Vie terms of (Jen Riley's proclamation, and defends tile action of the Legislative Assembly alluded to. Thu hitter body has published an address, in w hich they complain bitterly of the failure by Congress to give them a form of government of its courae in "taxing them without giving them a government ut , all." After a recital of their grievances, and a clear, ; explicit and intelligent statement of the necessities for immediate, united and determined action on the I part of Mie people, the Assembly "earnestly rccom- : mended lo their fellow c'tizens, the propriety Of electing at least twelve delegates from each district, i to attend a general Convention to be held at the Pu- , eblo San Jose, on the 3d Monday in August next lor the purpose of organizing a Government for liie The Mary had five hundred tons of freight for New Orleans; the Phoenix, one hundred tons for Ohio, principally hemp and lend.
