The Arkansas regiment of cavalry had reached camp some hours before us, and had ilieir fires lighted. Some of us gath ered round the tent of the field officers, to dry our clothes and tell over the trou bles ot the day's march. Having talked off aome of the ill humor gathered on the road, one of the infantry officers turned to Col. Yell, aud addressed him: "Well, Colonel, that's a good story they told of one of your men, at the Pre sidio." "What is that?" enquired the Colonel. "One of your Arkansas boys was stan ding guard just after dark, when the offi cer of the day came round. Who comes ihcic!' hailed tne scniincl- ;Tlie officer of the day,' was the reply. Well, said the sentry, you had be better be getting to your tent, for the officer of the night J will be round here presently, and he will give you Jefse."' "They tell a heap of stories on my men that are not true," said the Colonel, after a hearty camp laugh had subsided, "and that is one of them. But I will tell you one that actually did happen to me when I was officer of the day." "I was going the rounds after midnight, and came to one of my men who had never been on guard before. He hailed, Who comes there?' in a thundering voice. I answered, 'The officer of the day.' I don't know any such man,' said the sen tinel,' bringing his gun down to a 'ready.' 'Stand back,' he shouted. 'Well, but,' said I, 'vou know me, and I am officer of the day".'" "I don't know any body in the night," said he. "But I have the countersign, and am going the rounds." "1 don't know . any think about the rounds," said the sentinel, getting mad, thinking I was tampering with him; "my orders were to let nobody pass, sign or countersign, and I tell you what it is, Mr. officer, you'd better be off, for she's cock ed." , "Well, what did yor do, Colonel?" asked a dozen at a time. "Why, what could I do? I heard the tick, as he brought" the gun to his face, and saw the fellow would shoot, so 1 sloped. It won't do to fool with a Rack ensackcr." HIGH STAGE OF WATER. The Concordia Intelligencer, of the 20th inst., in speaking of the state of the river, fays: ' "The swollen and swelling condition of the Mississippi, ha3 now given rise to se rious fears of an overflow throughout the lowlands of the Mississippi. The river, at this point, comes within 2j feet of the highest mark of 1811, and the rise every twenty-four hours, varies from ljto3 inches. At Batchelor's Bend and other points in the St-te of Mississippi on the bank of the river, above ns, planters are in still greater danger, for there the water is within one foot of being up to the me morable mark of 164-1, and is going clo ser up to the mark every hour. At the mouth of the Arkansas and in the neigh borhood below it, a good deal of damage has already been done, imd this damage will increase to another year of ruin to the planters in the lowlands unless they are relieved by a sudden fall in some of the rivers above. Of this, the latest ac counts furnish but a poor prospect, for thev assure us that the Ar w vum- beriand and Ohio were still rising and ' there was still a large body of snow to I find its wav down the last named rivpr. I It behooves all planters now to be on their plantations as in the event of a continu ance of the rise of the water, their over seers will need their counsel." : FROM THE RIO GRANDE. The Picayune furnishes the following' intelligence, received by the steamship Telegraph, which left Brazos Santiago on the 24th ultimo. V - "No positive information had been re ceived from Gen. Taylor's . camp since the 2d of March. From the . best infor mation obtained it appears that Santa An na had retired to Matehuala with the ar my under his command where he ,was endeavoring to effect 'a reorganization of his broken forces, and from whjch place a gasconading proclamation was issued, claiming a victory at BuenaYista'to'the Mexican arms. . t..J... "Geh Taylor had removed his camp from Buena.Vista to his ' former posi tion at Agua Nueva; and, as the Tele graph was casting off from the landing a Brasos Island, certain intelligence was re ceived to the effect that Gen. Taylor had come through to Seralvo with 1,000 hor ses in pursuit of Gen. Urrea, who fled in the direction of Victoria o'doii learning that Gen. Taylor was after him. The communication between Uamargo and Monterey may thererore be considered as open aud uninterrupted. ' ' ""' " "Col. Cushirtg's regiment of Massachu setts volunteers had been ordered by Gen. Taylo- to remain and occupy Matamoras. all the other tried regiments being order ed to Agua Nueva, from which place he will shortly take up his line of march for San Luis Potosi. "The ship Remittance arrived off the Brasos on the 23d, with four companies of Msssachusetts volunteers on board. -They were landed on the morning of the 24th. The remaining companies of the North Carolina regiment had arrived, and were being disembarked on the morning of the 24th. : ' "Supplies were being pushed forward by the river boats to Camargo," and. wa gons, mules, &c, being hastened forward to replace those captured and detroyed by j the enemy. All excitement had subsided and the Quartermaster's Department at the Brasos and mouth of the Rio Grande were exerting their utmost energies to supply the necessary means of transpor tation required for the additional force of Gen. Taylor, and replacing the recent heavy losses. "Among the passengers by. the Tele graph, are Major Chas. Thomas, Quar termaster U. S. Army, and Mr. A, C. Wakeman, his Secretary, ordered to this place on duty. "The above intelligence, in regard to Gen. Taylor's movements, is confirmed by a letter from a responsible source at Camargo, from which we make an ex tract: . "Camargo. Mexico, March 19, '47. "I have just seen and conversed with a gentleman direct from Monterey. His information, I think, can be relied on. He states that Gen. Taylor has returned, since his last battle, to Monterey, with, a portion of eawalry eihd four pieces of Iigif artillery, and left Menterey with about 1? 500 to look up Gen.' Urrea, who is on this side of the mountains, arid said to have 6,000 troops cavalrv and infantry. Gen. Taylor marched in the direction of Montemorales, a small town 120 miles south of this, and report says on last Tuesday night Gen. T. and his little band were within twelve or fifteen miles of the Mexicans. Il Gen. T. overtakes them peace be to their ashes! He whipped Santa Anna on the other side of the mountains, and now he has come to clear out ail this bottom land." FROM VERA CRUZ. By the arrival at New Orleans of the revenue cutter Ewing we had a little la ter news from Vera Cruz, which is thus chronicled by the Picayune: "We hare our correspondence to the 15th ultimo. A continuance ofnor'hers had prevented the operations of landing stores and heavy ortlnancne. "The Mexicans had been throwing round shot and heavy shells at our lines trom the castle, and have done no consid erable if any harm. "During the night (between the 12th and 13th instant) a reinforcement of 800 Mexicans entered the town by the beach, norh of Gen. Twigsr's position, the in vestment not being there quite complete. "The wound of Lieut. Col. Dickson, of the Pa!mett regiment, is doing well. No other officers than before mentioned have been killed or wounded. "Communications have passed between the French and Spanish Consuls in Vera Cruz and Gen: Scott. They demand protection, &c, which will be granted as far as possible. ' "The vessel which had Col. Harney's command on board went ashore on Blan quilla Shoal. The Alabama went to her assistance. It is known that upwards of one hundred men had been taken out of her in safety. There were said to be five feet of water in her hold.-'' In announcing the same arrival the Delta says: "Through the polite attention of Lieut. Chandock, of the Lwing, we are indebt ed for the prompt delivery of our corres pondence. The news of Gen. Taylor's great victory was received on the morning of the IGth, and of course caused great j rejoicing in our army more especially as unfavorable rumors from the same quarter had reached them on the day pre vious. Many a shout went up for Gen. Taylor and the brave men under his com mand. "Owing to the rough weather but a portion of the heavy artillery intended for the attack had been landed previous to the sailing of the Ewing. "Gen. Scott gave the foreign residents notice to leave the town. They are gen erally on board of the foreign vessels of war off ihat port. --."Many of the citizens of Vera Cruz. seeing, the inevitable reduction '-. of the 1 place, Hre in favor of an early capitula tion.' The military, however, violently oppose any movement of that kind; and it Ls reported by the foreign residents that several citizens had been shot for propo sing a surrender, although few doubt that our troops will carry the place in a short time. :r : ' " -v' ,tfCol. Harney's dragoons arrived, at Vera Cruz on the IGth inst., 'after having been cast away near Anton Lizardo. They rtached the scene. ol operation in good condition. ; ' "On the evening of the 12th the South Carolina regiment had a brush with a body of some 200 lancers, and defeated them. "We regret to learn that the report of the recapture of ' Midshipman Rogers was-premature. . lie was still unfortu ly, a. prisoner. .- "Capt. Edson, of the Marines, is on shore with 180 men, and is - attached to the 3d artiilejy. Capt. Backus, of the 1st infantry, has found an 18-pound gun immediately op posite where the troops landed, but the descent was so well arranged and con dueted with such dispatch that the Mexi cans had not lime to plant it before oe.r forces were on shore. "The steamship . Mississippi, Com. Perry,' had not arrived at the sailing of the Ewing. ; i ' '' "The-Ewing brings despatches from Gen. Scott." FROM VERA CRUZ. correspondence of the Picayune. Camp near Vera Crcz, March 14. I have just got hold of a report, direct from Vera Cruz - by one of the foreign vessels, which I believe. It is said that the revolution against Gomez Farias in the city of Mexico is making headway, and it is thought he will be put down. The coalition now is, "Santa Anna and the Clergy," and it is reported that the priests have already sent him on $200, 000 as an earnest of their determination to support him. . Day before yesterday Gen. Scott re ceived notes fhjin the French and Spanish Consuls in Vera Cruz, or rather they were dated on that day aud came to hand last night. The writers ask his protec tion for the subjects of their respective Governments, and this morning lie sent two officers of his stuff, Capts. Lee and Scott, under a white flag to the city, with answers to these notes. Whether these officers will be permitted to, enter the ci ty i questionable. Gen. Scott sends a safeguard to the Consuls, and promises that the property of their citizens shall be protected as far as possible; yet this will afford from little safety from a bom bardment of the city. The safeguards will protect them storm or assault, as the penalty of torcing them to death. At this time half-past 3 o'clock, they are throwing 13-inch shells from the cas-i tie of San Juan d'UIua, and one of them has just bursted a short distance from where I am writing, yet without doing any harm. 1 wish you could hear one of these huge projectiles in the air as they are coming, and see the scattering they make. The roar they make may be compared to that of a tornado, and even man within a quarter of a mile of the spot where they strike thinks they are about to fall on his individual head. The con sequence is, that there is a general scam pering to and fro I mean when the men are lying idly about camp and so decep tive is the sound that one is just as apt to i run directly towards as from them. It takes two men to pack the mere shell it self, yet I intend sending one of them to New Orleans if possible as a sample. A large number of vessels have come in within the last twenty-four hours, some of them doubtless laden with ordinance and ordinance stores. So soon as the norther blows over they will be landed and placed in position, and then we shall be able to talk back at the Mexicans. So far, they have had the argument entirely on their own side, if I may except the skirmishing with light arms, of which there has been far from inconsiderable. P. S. Captains Lee and Scott, who went out with the white flag with notes to the Consuls, have returned. As was supposed, they were not allowed to enter the city, but were detained some three or four hundred yards outside the walls. Three officers came out to meet them, one of whom took the notes, and after wards brought a receipt that they had been delivered. Many of the inhabitants ladies among them were seen upon the walls and adjoining houses. The line of investment is now com plete, and all communication with the ci ty landward cut gff. Two French ves sels have succeeded in eluding the block ade, favored by ihe wind, and have doubt less taken in "aid and comfort to the ene my. The firing from the- castle and also from the batteries continues. A Crash. A serious destruction of property occurred on the Cambria rail road on Wednesday last, which will cost the State ten or twelve thousand dollars. It appears that in consequence of the snow storm, a train of burthen cars were left on the track at Oakland. This was unknown to the engineer of one of the upward burthen trains, and was not dis covered until he had approached so near that it was impossible to arrest the en gine and train. The trains came togeth or with a tremendous crash, dismantling the engine and breaking the cars very much. Fortunately the engineer and a gents. escaped by springing off of the train.
