W. W. BLISS,
, Ass. Adj. Gen.
We are glad to bear that the report
'brought over by the McKim of the death
of CoL McClung, of the Mississipi vol
"wntcers, wes totally unfounded. An offi
cer who left Monterey on the Gili
'instant says that he was improving, and
it was thought he would recover.
Jiis friends will regret to hear that
Lieut. Dilworth, of the first Infantry, has
died of his wounds. Lieut. Graham, of
"the fourth infantry, was still alive, and
'hopes were even entertained that
lie would recover. He is so desperately

deemed a miracle, but he has great
5t-fcngib of constitution, and his numerous
friends do not despair. Major Lear, of
thefhirrl infantrv. is dom well, and it is
believed that he will recover. The death
of Mr. H erman S. Thomas, of Hartford
county Maryland, will be deeply felt in
his native State. He had joined McCuI
Joch'sRangers to see activc,servicc& fell in
storming the second height. We fear
that we must have lost a package of letters
from 'our correspondent, in which he
nvould enter into details in regard to the
wounded. He alludes to such letters in
a private communication
Capt. Owen, (formerly Lieutenant,)
of the Baltimore Battalion, left Monterey
on the Gib inst, and wc are indebted to
Lira for many interesting details. He
informs us that the American loss in the
three actions is set down at five hundred i
rtnd nixly-onc killed and wounded. i
Our correspondent, writing on the 29th
ultimo, makes the loss a little less, but it i
had not then been ascertained with precis
ion. The Mexican loss has not been,
smd probably never will be, ascertained
with certainty. is believed to exceed
ant thousand. Other accounts say
from COO to 800.
In the American Flag we find announ
ced the death of Capt. Robert Mitchell,
Assistant Quartermaster to the Indiana
Volunteers, lie died at Malamoras on
the 7th instant. A warm culogium is
paid to him in die Flag.
The Meamer Major Brown has left
Camargo to go up the river to .ascertain
how far the river may be navigable, and
the "Flag" says it is intended to estab
lish a military depot at the furthest navi
jgablc point, so as to luive stores at a
place as near as possible to the route
taken by Gen. Wool, marching from San
Autouio into Chihuahua. At the last
accounts she had readied Mier without
meeting obstruction, and was proceding
ion up. An officer was on board to sur
ey the river and select the extreme nav
igable point
: Wr regret to say that certain difficul
ties hi;d occurred at Camargo which it
M'ns grievously feared would lead to two
private hostile meetings, in which two of
our citizens were to take part. It is sla
ted that Brig. Gen. Marshall, of Kentuek
V, had demanded satisfaction from Col.
Balie Peyton, cf this city, and that a meet
ing would take place probably on the
1 lib. instant. Another difficulty was to
lis arranged at about the same time, and
in a similar mode, by Capt. Musson.of this
city, and Capt. Shives, of Texas. Most
riiipcrely do we hope that an adjustment
ray liave geeu effected whheut resort to
crms.
THE EVACUATION OF MONTE-
. -, Monteeey, Sept. 29.
We are rt length in quiet possession of
(his place the last division of Ampudia's
tsrmy having marched cut yesterday i
morning. The first division marched out
on the 2Gdi, the second on the 27th, and
balance on the 28th. I saw the two last
and was able lo form a tolerably good
idea of the number of men in them.
There could not have been fewer than
two thousand five hundred in each divis
ion of regular soldiers, well armed and
cquimcJ. Add to these some two thou
sand horsemen whe left the ci'y in sinall
parties during the four days' fight, and at
least five thousand citizens of the town
who took up arms in its defence, and you
have a orcttv slrong force for the defence
of a place which nature and art havecoin
' biucd to render as strong as any in die
world. How such an army, thus situa
ted, could ever allow itself lo be conquer
ed by a force of less than seven thousand
men will always appear strange to ine.
The cowardice of Ampudia is now estab
lished Ix-yoml a doubt. So careful was
he of his person thai it is said he never
once left his house when any firing was
going on. What a pity dial one of our
shells could not have dropped into his
bedroom.
1 felt perfectly satisfied, when I saw
the Mexican troops pass out of town,
with the arrangements which Gen Taylor
iiad made with them. To have taken all
thes.:e men prisoners would have been
useless. Their arms we did not want;
their horses were worthless with few
exceptions, and would have been very
expensive and troublesome to feed and
so many men; and, moreover, it would
i t i i r K
have cost many a valuable use io nae
carried the city at the point of the bayo
net. 1 rede out with the head of the column
day before yesterday; when their second
division lei't town. That scene alone
would almost have remunerated one fur
the long journey to Monterey. At the
head ei' the column rode the commander
of the division with his staff, accompanied
by Major Scott, of the 5th infantry, with
his Adjutant. (Lieut. Deas,) and .Liev.ts.
Hanson, Robinson, and M thaws. Col
onel Pcvton rode by the side cf the chief,
;;r.d received a very affectionate embrace
from him as we turned out lo let the col
umn march on, when the head had reach
ed Pahu-e II ill. And now was present
ed a scene that I can never forget. Two
regiments of infantry led off. with colors
flying, drums heating, and the trumpeters
blowing with all their might; the lifers
made all the noise they could. - The men
were all well armed, and the whole divis
ion seemed to be well appointed, with the
exception of shoes, in lieu of which most
of them wore sandals. Three pieces of
artillery were in the centre of the column
one six, one nine, and one twelve
pounder. The line, marching four a
breast, extended about one mile.
The army was accompanied by a great
many females; officers' wives on horse
back, their faces mufiljd, and with hats
on; soldiers' wives mounted on donkej's
or on foot, some of them carrying bur
dens that I would scarcely think of pack
ing upon mules; young women with short
petticoats and hats, tripping lightly alonj.?;
young girls trudging along with their lit
tle valuables in their arms. I noticed
one pretty little creature, about nine years
old, with a pet chicken on one arm and a
parrot perched upon her hand. The ug
liest woman I ever heard of was walking
behind a poor little flea-bit donkey, be
laboring him with a large slick. The
donkey was ridden by a young woman, a
second edition to the old one. A pre
cious pair, that mother and daughter.
Most of the soldiers looked sullen, and
their eves gleamed with hatred and de
sire for revenge. One of McCulloch's
horses, a valuable animal, which a man
was leading out of the way of the Mexi
can troops, was seized and led off, the
soldiers levelling their muskets at the
hostler when ho endeavored to recover
his licrse. The animal was promptly
returned, however, oa the circumstance
being mentioned to the commanding of
ficer. Yesterday morning the last division
was drawn out in the plaza next to the
citadel that is, all that the pbza could
hold and Capt. Miles, who .is stationed
there with his regiment, (seventh infantry)
drew up his command and saluted the
regiments us they passed him. 1 never
heard a noise until yesterday morning.
Pandemonium never contained as noisy a
gang as these Mexicans arc. It seemed
to be the particular endeavor of .every
man lo make all the noise that lay in his
power. There must have been fifty bu
gles and as many fifcrs and drummers
playing at the same time, and no three of
them attempting the same tune.
I saw several regiments of fine look in
soldiers, men of goou tize, young, active,
and athletic.
The first division is encamped in the
grove three miles east cf of the town
one of the lovliest spots in the world, sha
ded by laie pecan and live-oak trees.
This grove seems lo be the only wood-
la
:r.u m lias reg ion, and is resorted to by
the citizens of Monterey ?s a place for
holding pic-nie parties. The third, a vol
unteer division, is also encamped in this
grove. Gen. Worth's division occupies
the town, The chizens are beginning to
return in great numbers, and appear to
feel glad that the Mexican army has left
them.
Our army has taken, or rather retained,
thirty-five pieces cf artillery, many of
which are valuable, and as much ammu
nition as will ever be needed to use with
them. The killed and wounded of the
enemy cannot be ascertained with any
degree of rcrtaiuty, but it is known now
that their loss far exceeded ours. The
reports of the different commanders in!
Gen. Taylor's army have not all been !
sent in yet, but enough is known to ren-j
der it certain that our loss will not vary
twenty from five hundred killed and .
wounded. A considerable number of the marsh (on Water stteet, in another block) !
wounded will die, so that the number who , were enveloped in flames, and befo-c th- !
JhrrVZw. lhrir Viv ft;ldawVf!iedayevcr3rho"se between the
three hundred. Gen. W orth lost eighty, 1 bank budding, corner of Water and Cen-1
killed and wounded;abouttvrenty killed or
have died since the battle. The large
fort'on the noith of the town is a very
strong work, and it would have cost a
heavy sacrifice o! life to have taken it.
It is i built scienitfically has four salients,
each of which is pierced for eight guns.
Insideofihe vails, whicharc apparentlynew
and which enclose an area of some two or
three acres, are the thick walls of a large
unfinished cathedral, inside of which are
twelve very large pillars, intended for the
support of the roof. These pillars are at
least twelve Teet square at the base, and,
like the walls, are twenty feet high. The
walls of the fort are solid and neatly
built, having a gateway and drawbridge
on the side next to the city.
Brcaslfiil Htsrrlcaiie at Eey
West.
Our thanks are due to Commodore
Sloat and Lieut. W. C. Pease for the
following narrative of disasters at Key
West, and the vicinity during thehurri-j
cane on the 11th inst. The destruction!
effected by this calamitous visitation is al -
must imnrr"P:!cntcd. Key West has
1
been completely devastated, while a vast
amount of shipping has been wrecked
and destroyed. All the warehouses on
the island were either blown down or un
roofed, and of the six hundred houses but
six have escaped the effects of the tem
pest. The current ran through the town
at the rate of six miles an hour, and was
live feet in depth. The Lighthouses at
Key West and Sand Key are all washed
away, and not a vestige is left to mark the
spot where they stood. Among the ship
ping the havffc was frightful. The Bar
racks were but slightly injured, the chim
neys being blown off the roofs.
The U. S. brig Perry, Lieut. Blake
commanding, having on board Commo-
dore Sloat. went ashore near Sombrero
shoal, inside the reef, with both masts
gone, anchor, yns, tc. thrown overboard.
She lay in ten lVct water, and might be
got off. All hands saved.
The' revenue cutter Morris went ashore
about three miles from Key West, in two
and a half feet water, with the loss of
both masts, anchor, chains, guns, boats,
bulwarks, fcc. She lay one mile from
the channel, and is probably a total loss.
No lives lost.
The pilot boat Lafayette was sunk, and
all on board lost; two ladies picked up
by the cutter Morris. The Spanish
schooner Villa Nueva, for Neuviias, a
shorc; vessel and twenty lives lost, in
cluding a woman and child; one man be
ing saved by the U. S. brig Perry. The
schooner Sarah Churchman rode out the
gale on Bahama Banks, in company with
ship Adeline, with fifty passengers on
board, bound for New Orleans.
Most of the vessels engaged in wreck
ing were lost or sustained great injury.
Only one wrecker was left to continue
business.
The Eliza Catharine was high
and dry in a garden at Key Vaccas, and
one of the brigs ashore was three? hundred
feet above high water mark. Four or
five vessels in the vicinity of Key West
were bottom up, and one upon the reef
was known to have been lost, with all
nanus, adoui twenty vessels were asnore
on the reef, their cargoes being of no
i l ti i lit i . .
value.
The Government will loss by the loss
of the brig Peary, revenue cutter Morris,
two light-houses, fortiucations, custom
house, and hospital, not far from $300,
000. Many vessels will doubtless get
ashore, from the fact of Sand Key light
house being gone.
Dead bodies were occasionally being
dug out from under the ruins, and no one
can tell how many there are remaining.
As fas as has been ascertained fifty per
sons have lost their lives, and it i3 singu
lar that so few are deed or injured, when
wc remember that the air was full of
boards, timber, slate, &c. and buildings
falling in every direction. Stone itself
could not withstand the gde. Many per
sons escaped in boats and held on to trees,
expecting every moment to be washed
away. The scene was awful beyond all
power of description. N. O. Bee.
The account in the Bee gives the
names ol a great number of vessels, in
addition to the above, that have suffered
shipwreck or serious disaster; but, though
the loss of property must be very great,
we do not observe any olher wrecks
which were accompanied with loss of
life.
TREMENDOUS FIRE ! GREAT
DESRUCTION OF PROPERTY ! !
From the Apalachicola Com. Adv. 17.
Yesterday morning our city was near
ly laid in ruins by the villianyof incendia
ries. Three houses were fired simulta
neously, an at the fourth attempt, the
villian was shot at, and narrowly escaped
with his life.
About 2 o'clock yesterday morning, our
citizens were aroused from' their slumbers
by the cry of fire on nulling into the
street, three buildings were discovered
wrapped in flames, bursting through fire
proof windows, doors and roofs, spread
ing destruction all around. By dint of the
greatest exertions cn the part of the citi
zens, our city was after four hours un
ceasing labor, saved from utter destruc
tion. The flames were first discovered in R.
J. Floyd's building on Commerce street,
destroyed entirely communicating then
with T. L. Mitchell's large house corner
of Commerce and Chesnut sLieets, it was
also swept away together with the tene
ments adjoining; thence east every build
ing between Floyd's and Simmons comer
were levelled lo" the ground the whole
square pone.
Near the Kam mnmnnt
of B. Ellison At. r ,i v i nru:,
tre streets, and. Green and Connery'a
store, were in smoking ruins.
The total loss some $00,000 or $70,
000 not more than half insured.
From tlie Pacific Squadron.
The Journal of Commerce has the fol
lowing letter dated at Tepic oa the 12th
September :
Commodore Stockton has declared
the whole of the coast of Mexico on the
Pacific in a a state of blockade. Com
modore Stockton has established himself
Governor in the capital of LTupper Cali
fornia. It is reported that the ports of
Lower California are to be taken posses
sion of, and San Bias made a rendezvous
for the squadron and their prizes.
" The Cyane arrived off san Bias on
the 2d of this month, and sent the notifi
cation of the blockade to the authorities.
She is cruising off the coast, occasionally
anchors in the bay,-and has seized a coup
le of coasting vessels. Another vessel has
aso arrived off Mazatlan, and has cut out
j that harbor a coasting vessel.

Price.
The N. O. Tropic of the 15th, says
that '-intelligence was received at Natchez
on Monday last of the fate of Lieut. Ezra
K. Price, who, in company with two oth
er U. S. Volunteers, left Camargo some
weeks since to join the command of Gen.
Taylor during his advance to Monterey.
The informant states that the bodies of
of Mr. Prifrt ' liis Iwn pniiimnlniis wnr
found lying on the grass some distance
j from the road leading" from Camargo to
Monterey, completely riddled with bul
let holes. The bodies of seventeen Jilex
ican soldiers'wjre lying scultered around
them ! Mr. Price was the brother-in-law
of Lewis Sanders, Jr., of Natchez, and
was associated with him in the practise of
: tne law. W lien liie requisition was
j made upon the State of Louisiana for vo
lunteers, he enrolled himself in the Spar
row Guards," then raised at Concordia,
and was elected 2d Lieutenant of the
company. Upon the disbanding of the
Louisiana Volunteers, he determined still
to devote himself to the cause of his
country, and proceceed to Camargo for
that purpose, meeting with the above un
timely fate. As he and his two compan
ions were armed with revolving pistols, it
is supposed they must have killed the
se'entecn Mexicans in a most desperate
encounter."
Movement of Gen. Wool.
The following extract from a letter da
ted Camp Crockett, near San Antonio,
October 2d, is the latest notice that has
reached here of the movements of Gen.
W ool:
"Messrs Editors: When I wrote to
you last I expected ere this to have been
on the inarch for tiie Rio Grande; bnt
here we are yet, and presume it will be
several days before we leave. The whole
of lbs army have left except eight com
panies of die 2d regiment of Illinois vol
unteers, and it is not pleasant to our feel-
. l . 1 .1 1 TI .1.-
mgs to e oeiiiuu. now ever, uiu army
will again concentrate at the Presidio, and
the good book says the first shall be last,
and the last first.' Gen. Wool and stall
left San Antonio on Tuesday last, escort
ed by two companies of U. S. dragoons,
and will make a forced march until they
overtake the advance forces under Col.
Harney. The 1st regiment of Illinois
volunteers and the remaining four com
panies of Arkansas troops left to-day."

Wc understand that the United States
Marshal for this district has procured him
"a strong box," wherein to keep his de
positcs; and, that the box aforesaid may
be safely kept, he has placed it for secu
rity in the vault of the Branch Bank of
Cape Fear in this city. Can any thing
more strongly illustrate the absurdity of
the Subtrcasury scheme? The Govern
ment will not keep its deposites in a bank;
oh, no, tha. would be monstrous! But
its agents put them in a box, and then
put that box in a bank! If this is not

know not what is. fia!e:gh liegisler.

rgIHS Stove combines all that is val
j liable in existing Cooking Stoves
with certain improvements peculiar to
itself. It is constructed upon a new and
entirely distinct principle truly philo
sophical, so as to pass the flue entirely
round the oven, thus making it enveloped
or jiame encircled, without impairing the
necessary draught of the stove. This
method of thus passing twice round,
once over and once under the oven, is the
secret of its great economy in the use of
fuel, while the enlargement of the air
chamber affords increased space for the
rarefaction of air and compensates for
the usual disadvantages of a circular
draught, It bakes, leasts, and boils,
easier and better than any Stove yet of
fered to the public, with the advantage
over most of iheci of saving one half the
fuel. It is superior to the "Qaeen of
the Wmj," "Bock's Patent," "Eclipse"
or 4 Hatha ways Patent," for the follow
ing reasons: In these Stoves the upper
side of the oven is dependant for heat
and can have from no other source than
what radiates through die plate on which
t . f '
I lU" ,UC IS
made. If the ashes be lifted
clean, too much heat will radiate ami
burn the bread on the upper j
side, if too much ashes be hfi, the bread
will not b:.';e n the upper side. Of this
defect all :;nod cooks complain. This
Stove is entirely free of this objection,
the oven always heating exactly alike
top and bottom, and ends. Mawy buy
the Premium or step stove and others of
similar model. These Stoves ronsume
much fuel, for first the fire chamber is
tuo deep, the pots fec, are too high a
bove the fire. Second when using ihe
oven, all the heat which passes off under
the oven being one half, never comes in
contact with the boiling utensils, passcseff
into the pipe and is lost. Also our Stove
is ?u ui i .myru wiin a oaniv fir ejcvaiion
in the fire chamber as to ensure the u?ej
of the flame upon the forward part of
the Store first, and it then passes back!
afterward besting all alike whereas I
Stoves like the Hathaway,' bavin one I
vest chamber, allow too wide a range
for the fiame without suffrient concen
tration. We manufacture two sizes of this

most of the pots commonly used in the
