His person itication of Crop. l ushes, Mr. Gregory, ichohs ( rowquiil, fcc. 5cc. is excellent, his Mr. Gregory in particular, is "sans parallel. " I think he should make that line of character "his hohhy." Mr. Masrr.Y is a young actor, who, if I mistake not, has a creat deal of natural talent hut it requires cultivation. One rannot be a good actor without years of intense study and practice. Mrs. Fitzgerald in Mariette, is very good; she is a useful actress, hut I think not as industrious as otie should be, who would wish to excel. I would respectfully hint to her, that she will do well to look over thr- part of Imosrine. in the Tratyrdv of Dertiam, ns it is by far the best character in the piece, If

"However, as the above mentioned communications from l'llisola showed some dignity, and Gen. Urrea bal ing informed me of the good f eling among his soldiers, Houston could not divine the true intentions of Gen.

General Jackson's answer is founded j on a misinterpretation ol my letter to bun. and by comparing the former with the latter it will he found so. Mv only intimation was that "he would mediate with the Texans" in onh r that they would fulfil their engagement with regard to my liberty, in the same manner I had partly fultiiied mine, and felt disposed to comply with the remainder when required, ilut his negative answer entirely settled that point; and my liberation from confinement wns more the eileet of a spontaneous decision and generosity of General Houston than the result of General Jackson's recommendation. Houston did not explain to me whether he was induced to act in the manner he did, in consequence of .mv information he might have had that
niv return to Mexico would cause a revolution in the country, by which Texas might Le benefited. He spoke to me about "generosity," and nothing else, and I feel grateful to him. "There existed three powerful motives for mv going to V.'a.-hmgion, two of which Vere indispensably necessary, and the third was mjuired for the good of the country. Far from alarming the Tex urn with my liberation, it w as, on the eonlrairv, necessary to persuade them of n.v au-
l.csum to tlietr plain and policy. A er would it have been prudent to go to . .ev Orleans there being no possibiliiv of e;)i;ig d.veet from Texas to Vera Cruz, for want of communication because Mew Orleans lias been the focus of the revolu tion of the Texan settlers, and I should hav e run rreat risk of beitm ill-used bv the cs . a . people there.
