The following extracts from lettersreceived by the writer tell the story of the necessity for early actionon the part of Congress, in urgent terms.

Affa...irs in the Territory have not improved. A party of Americans (ourcountrymen) had made an "excursion" into Sonora, captured a train ofmules, and killed several Mexicans. Upon their return to the Territorywith their ill-gotten booty, the citizens formed a company and took theproperty away from them, and returned it to the owners in Magdalena, [atown of Sonora--Ed. ] and delivered the robbers up to Major Steen, commanding first dragoons, to be held in custody until Courts should beorganized.
