Services of the Correo Atlantico

pr Flash. New Orleans 23 August 1836.

Gen. S. F. Austin Texas

My dear Sir.

Enclosed I send you press Copy of part of my last letter to you, in regard of the "Correo Atlantico" which as you will see has been silenced for want of the needful, thus giving to the enemies of Texas a full sway to say what they think proper, without meeting with a Contradiction— I have forwarded regular files of the Correo Atlantico to the "Times" and "Morning Post" London.—"Gallignani's Messenger" Paris,—"Boersenhallen Liste" and "Correspondent" Hamburg—and "Algemeine Zeitung" Augsburg— Thus you may shortly see the European Papers teaming with the Cause of Texas, and deprecating the butcheries and barbarities of Santa Anna.— It is necessary to enlist the sympathies of the English and french people in favor of Texas, and we are succeeding in it to my best expectations. The troubles and difficulties of Texas are by far not over yet, and it is necessary to call the sympathising aid of Europe in its favor.— This afternoon I am going to put on board Steamer Teche for Louisville, Cincinnati &c: and am Yours truly

George Fisher
