Clarke, of the 21 Mississippi Rifl -s was at Maiamoros on the 3J inst., with a detachment of recruits, on the way to his regiment at Uuena Vista. Caps. t linch was at the month of the river n the 6ih inst. with a detachment of rerniils for ihe 13th infantry, and would have the next d.iy for Gen. Cushin'a c imp a! El Sabinito. Dispatches have pissed through Matanioios for Gen. Marshallat Monterey, to proceed tr. Vera Cniz without delay. Col. II. E. Temple arrived at Maiamoius l ie lt inst., with four companies of his rejrimenl of tin; lOih infantry. The Fiag says that Col. Ttbbatts, who was proceeding from Monterey with sis companies of the Gih Infantry, escorting ;ilr:un, was attacked by a large body of Mexicans near Ranos, and succeeded in driving them nlf. witir a loss of two wounded. We have the best reason for believing that the whols object of the Mexicans in this attack was plunder. Only the day before Lieut. Givens passed up from Cerralvo to Monterey with only twenty dragoon, and General dishing, ( n ho met Col. Tihballs at R iuos,) passed down the day after with a guard of only twenty -five mounted men. and neither of them s uv any thing of the guerrillas. Col.

First Despatch lliphly Important frvtn Mexico I he Capital taken iSanla Anna ttoittutetl. W ASHiHGTON City, Oci.2, 4 P. M. The Postmaster General has this mo ment received me lotiowing iroui me Postmastes at N. Orleans a day latei t!ian any previous advances. New Orleans; Sept.JiGih. The J. L- Day arrived here last evening from Vera Cruz. The news by her is highly important, though details are meagre, and uncertain. The main points are that the armistice lias been concluded without a treaty of peace, and alter considerable hard fighting, the City of Mexico has been taken, and our victorious troops are now in the Capital. Gen. Dravos was killed. Santa Anna was wounded, and has retired with his scattered forces to Gaudaloupe about 12 miles from the city The troops entered the Ciiy on the 8ih. The loss of Gen. Scott is said to be from 1000 to 1500 in killed and wounded. The Mexican loss is not staled. Petershcrgh, Oct. 2d. The McKim left Veiacmz on Ihe 1st and has not since been herd of. Considerable anxiety is felt for her safety. Sev eral of ihe army and Navy were on board. Officers of high rank in the Navy wrote from Vera Cruz under date of the 16ih, that (he Americans had recommenced hostilities, and had entered the city. The Sun says that the tram under the command of Maj. Lally left Jalappa, and lhat il had sustained but little loss in its engagements with the Guerillas. Nothing was said in relation to Dasansan of Henderson being with Msj. Lally, The Pensacola Gazette of the 15ih, gives the news brought by the Oseola, and says that the Mexicans agreed to cede California as an indemnity to our citizens, but refused to entertain the proposition of the Rio Grande boundary -line. Valencia's defence against Santa Anna's charges has been published. He lays the whole blame on Santa Anna for not reinforcing him. One mher letter published says Gen. Worth is dangerously wounded. One tenth of onr force occupied one half ihe City of Mexico, and a terrible conflict is still raging in the other parts of the city. Second Despatch Very late from Mexico Further paitic n'ar of the Haiti e. Petersbchgh, Va., Oct. 2,11P.M. The Steamer James L. Day arrived at N. Orleans on the night of the25ih, with the most important intelligence yet receieved from the seal of war. From the Picayune extra of the 2fth, received this moment by prompt express. I extract the following particulars. The Accoiras has receivedjelters from Mex ico dated Ihe 10th, staling that on theTih the Mexican commissioners declared that the propositions made by Mr. Trist were inadmissable, in consequence or which, anta Auna invoked a council r . ..... oi i.enerais, who decided that notice should be given immediately to General Scott that the armistice was at an end. Gen Scott occused Santa Anna of viola ting the armistice to obtain supplies. A severe correspondence passed between Scott and Santa Anna on the subject, and the latter accused the former of sacking towns, robbing Churches, find destroying articles esteemed sacred by the Mexi cans. On the 8ih, General Scotl attacked King's Mill in the vicinity of Chesapeak, and our army after a severe loss of four hundred killed, and six to seven hundred wounded, fell back upon Tacubaya. This battle is represented to have been the most bloody that has been fought since tne commencement of ihe Mexican war The Mexicans account of this baitle is that our troops retreated to Tacubava abandoning the forts previously occupied. I he reported loss in retreating is set down al 100 killed and 250 wounded In the attack on the mills, the Mexi cans were repulsed three times and final ly abandoned the Mills, leaving 1000 dead on the field of battle and carrying off 400 dead and seven hundred wounded. anta Anna led th attack in nerson. unereour iroops were repulsed. uomos were discharged from Cliunullapecu wnicn leil among ihe ammunition wagons of the enemy in the ardof the miii, captured by our troops four of which exploded, killing three hundred Ameri. cans, and General onh is reported to nave been among them, not having been heard from. General Pierce abandoned the Mill. The Americans took Chanultaneck on the 13th, and in this engagement Gen. Draro was Killed and Santa Anna wounded. Letters of ihe 12th report our victory as most complete, and our army revelling in me nans ol Montezumas and Orizaba. Gen. Scotl was in the citr. and nart of ine troops entered on the I6th, while the balance remained in possession of Cha pullapeck. Active hostilities commenced on the 8ih and continued until the city w as ta ken, some Mexicans say Gen Scott lost 1,700 men; and others one-third or onefourth of his whole army. un the 8 h the notorious Rilev and hi. legion, numoering 70 men. orde red io be hung, were executed in the orenenro oi our army and ihe enemy.

Vou are aware Ihal this command could have lefl for the pra:nes nearly tuo mouths sitice, if the necessary provision had been made for iheir outfit. As it is, we have to remain almost in idleness until spring-say Aprl or May. Why can't we be sent to Mexico or some place here we can do some set vice? There has been some dissatisfaction among a few ol Ihe companies composing this battalion, o ing to the election. The Colonel has pursued, so far, a very correct course, and I have no doubt but we will be all content and well satisfied with him.

M Tlia D.....I tt.l a . iichiijsi :unii steamer ninernia arrived at Boston from Liverpool esterdav afternoon at 20 minutes before 2 o'clock wiih London dates to the 18ih. and Liverpool to the 19th of September. J here has been a reaction in the Corn market, and a considerable advance was realized for Flour and Wheat about the middle of the month, caused by a large increased demand both for fore i en and home consumption. J he continued heavy falluie in the Coin trade, sufficiently accounts for the further depression of ihe Corn market curing ihe first week of the present montn, and on the G.h nil. prices still continued lo reced, but towaidsthe close of the second week both h Dal a i A Flour were in active demand, at:d the improvement was maintained ill lti I !t Ii w hen Wheat advanced 5s per quarter as me quotations of the 8 h, an 1 Floor, for wiitrh there was an immense demand in London and Liverpool, advanced 3io4s. pr. btl. The lop quotations for the batter description of W beat was 62s per quarter in Liverpool. Besl Western Canal Fiour, which on the Gih was dull at 2 was selling on ihe ll;h at 28 to 30 per barrel. Indian Coin has also been in great demand at hih rates, anJ the Corn market al the latest moments appeared fii m; but as large supplies was still expected from abroad, and as ihe English harvest was admitted to be an abundant yield, it was very doubtful whether fluctuations would not lake place, before prices reached their natural level. Considerable uichases have been made in London and Liverpool for Belgium and Holland, in consequence of the diseased slate of the Potato crop in mose countries, and these purchases lend greatly to strengthen the mniket. I The state ofCoaiinerri.il tflaira and of the Corn market especially, render il a matter of great difficulty to form a cor rect judgment of the future course of pri ces at Mark Lane. At ihe markets held on the 15ih and I7ih, Breadstuff were a little higher. The suoplr of Wheal was limited.

the fact of ihe consumption di I coniiuuing upon a very contracted H-ale, together with the alledged iniiemuueraiing stale of Ira le throughout the week receeding the 17th, tended to considerably depress the Liverpool Market, and to reduce quotations three eights ol a penny per pound for the qualities which have mostly been acted upon.

One Sergeant Harris, who was wounded al the storming of Monterey, and ordered home for the recovery of his health, related the following characteristic anecdotes of "old Rough and Ready" Io a conespondent of the N. V. Herald. They are of course interesting: The character of General Taylor is pretty much what is represented. He is mild and affable, yet firm and unflinching, II a soldier under his command thinks he is aggrieved, il is to the General he looks for redress, and never fails in gelling il in case General Taylor, on inquiry, as certains il lo be w ell founded! The "old man, 'hs he is familiarly termed by the officers and men, is approachable al all hours. lie will sel and talk with ihe commor.esl soldier in the most affable manner, and my informant tells me that he lias often wondered at seeing htm enter minutely into the pnvale affairs of the soiaters under Ins command, give ihrm his advice when asked, as it frequently is when that is over, read lo ihem from the newspapers the anecdotes of the army. w hich have made ils way into print in the .... r . . . .1 northern cities, at which he would laugh at as heartily as any of them. He is be loved by all his command, officers and men. All take pleasure in obejing his commands; and when an order i given by him, there is emulation among all who hear it, lo obey il. His treatment of ihe Mexicans is marked with the same urnanity. Ihey accoiding lo my informalion, al least such of Ihem as have been in habit of serving the camp with milk and other little r.ic nacs, love him. as much as his own soldiers lo On a renaio nee,Bion nn nf poor creatures complained to Im Captana that a volunteer had entered his rancho. and appropriated lo his own use some of L ... .. . n.s eauo.es rv.moui paying lor them.- ;" u cailI t,i oruer, w men Gen Taylor could not overlook, so he hftii I h t rT.aroiirlAa.iiiAiilifinJ k f ........r,..u.uc ..j, llIC wiexnan, anu oroi.g.n neiore him.

At the end of which he gave him a few words about not doing the like again, &c. and sent him back lo his quarters. Oc asinnally it occurs that a man will want to write a letter to some of his friends, and has no materials lo do so. W iihout hesitation he applies to the "old man," and gels all he wants, pen, ink, and paper, and wafer, wnicn comes rrom his private stock, which always at ihe seivice of the soldicis. We have all heard of ihe souberipuet of Rough and Ready had its origin in Ihe Floridi war, in which Gen.

do so again, my boy, jihout leave," aud directed him to his quarters. Thai man, says my Informant, thinks lhat General Tavlor is the best man living, and would willingly loose liife al his bidding. Gen. Taylor's modesty is equalled by magnanimity. It was uol known in camp until three weeks after it was known io the General himself, that he had received a Brevet, and all the at my heard f the sword presented lo him, wis through the papeis.

Or, shall lisneli heart thrilling tones, Proclaim my own death knell? Is not the grave's distending jaws Wide gp lug lo be fed? And may not I in short be called A viclim for its bread? , Around me, fall the young as well As those advanced in years; The blooming cheek Is often paled, And yet, have I no fears? Am J impervious to ailMr body proof 'gainst death? To me is immortality Bequeathed, while yet on earth? Ah no! this form is week and frail And soon must pass away, And like the Autumn leaves which now Are green, must fade decay. This heart, that vibrates in my breast, Must shortly cease lo beat; Its pulse, all chill, must cease to flow. And life resign its seat. These limbs, now filled with lusty life, By vigorous impulse moved, Must soon be motionless In death, And al! on earth I've loved Must pass away like meteor lights My ownself gone the whileSwept by the blighting hand of death, All to the funeral pile. And is it ? Ah! yel it is; And the time is near al hand For like a fierce tornado, death Is raging 'thro our land. And as I heard that soft, sad chime, In solemn tones resound, Methinks ten thousand answering swells; Reverberate the sound. This day a hoast of infani buds, Oh death have found Iheir graves And many, too, of hoaiy heads, Have fallen in thy waves. Mothers, berefiof tender babes, I Are weeping o'er their loss

With streaming eyes and bleading heatts, They scarce can bear the cross. Bui weep nol, mothers, who have lst Your infant blossoms from four breast! God's love has only sought them on', To take ihem home to rest. Then mourn not, parents, tho' they're gone, The day will soon arrive When you should mount the azure arc b And meet them in the 6kies. Old time, as the lightnings w ing Is onward rolling, on; While generations as he goes, Hang bleeding pale and wan. Upon his goary charriot it heels, While death wiih well trirced daits. Attends and at each moments flight Strikes cold a thousand hearts. What moment then is it that we Should be prepared io die; Sj ihal our hearts may meet, approved, Our Gjd'n o.nnicienl eye. Great God; alternate and divine. With one sweet Heaven-born breath Disperse our heaiis long hoarded sin, And save our souls from death. Oh! set our glorious standard hioh Alone Ihe o'rlds vain show; And upward let its brighl folds wave, Nor let il sink below. And now, in love our every hearl, Touch deep and sensitive; Help us to live prepared lo die "That, dying, we may live." Brookville, Sert. 25, 1847.
