IMPORTANT NEWS FROM GEN.
SCOTT'S ARMY.
At length
we have some intelligence
from Gen. Scott's army at Mexico. The
details are few, but they are full of sor
row and will shroud many a domestic cir
.cle through the land in mourning; for they
tell cf many more brave and beloved vic
tims to the demon of War. Wc have
not to bear the mortification of defeat
wo have ths consolation that our arms
r.rc victorious but all else is sad indeed.
-We have the. names of only some fifty o
the gallant spirits who have fallen the
chief victias those cf the great mass
r.ra yet to come. Thxie thousand is our
lowest stated loss in the field since Gen.
Scott marched front Puebla ! Nat. Int.
T?vOM THE X. O. DELTA OF OCT. I I.
We have full details of the killed,
wounded, and missing; copies of the gen
eral orders issued by the commander-in-chief
from the lime of the capture of the
city up to the latest date; the manifesto of
Gen. Bravo, addressed to the Minister of
War and Marine, descriptive of the ope
rations of the Mexican forces at and a
bout Chapultcpec on the ISih of Septem
ber; resignation of the Presidency by
General Santa Anna, ic; all of which we
will endeavor to lay before our reader lo
triorrcw. Our less hns be?n severe. The previ
ous m mors of Gen's Pillow, Worth and
Sinith being killed, we are graiiued to
learn, were without foundation. Among
the wounded we regret to see the name ot
Mr. Kendal!, tf the Picayune. We trust,
liowever, his wound is but a slight one.
! The American prisoners, who were
tent from the city of Mexico to Toluca on
the approach of Gen. Scott to the capital,
have been sent back to the city of Mexi
co, still as prisoners of wartmder pa
role. It is said they were cent by the
Governor of Mexico on hi3 own respon
fibilit)'. The names of the officers thns
liberated on paralo are, Capt's Chv, Hea
dy, rnd Smith, Lieut's Churci ,i!l," Davidson,-
and Barbour, and sixteen privates.
The city cf Mexico was quiet at the
latest dates, though daily reports of the
rising of the populace, and the assassina
tion of our men were rife. Little fear
however, was entertained by our armv of 1

The Mexican Congress were to nseet

not known at the capital on the2Sth Sep

of Puehla.
Col's Dickinson, Baxter, and M'lntosh
hare died of their wounds; Gen's Pillow
and Shields are recovering slowly. Our
eoncspomlent inake out our total loss lo
be in killed, wounded, and missing-
sixteen hundred and twenty-one. ;
The American Star of the 20th Sept.,
in rpeaking of the execnion of the. de
ecrtcrs, says that sixteen of them were-!
hung at ban Angel on, the 9:h; and, imme
diately after, some ten "ir twelve were
whipped and branded on the cheek with
the letter D. Riley, the chiel of the
crowd, came in for a fdiarc of the whip
ping and branding. The next morning
four others were executed at Miscoac; and
on the 13th, thirty mote were hung upon
one gallows at the same place. It ap
pears that Rih?y, according to our milita
ry laws, could not be hung, he having de
serted before the commencement of hos
tilities. Rumors xvcre rife in Ver3 Cruz of San
ta Anna being in Puebla at the head of
ome 300 men. Speaking on this sub
ject, the American Star of Sept. 23, pub
lished in the city of Mexico, says that
Gen. Rra with a guerrilla force had en
tered Puebla a few days previous, and the
force tinder CoL Childs being so smalL,
he withdrew them to the heights com
manding the place, where he was quite
secure, and from whence he could bom
bard the city at will.
The summary of the Picayune is sub
stantially the same as that of the Delta,
except that the former gives a more com
prehensive statement of the extent of our
loss, as follows:
"The news is glorious, ever-glorious,
for the American arms. At the same
lime our losses are severe, and the details
of the killed and wounded heart-sickening.
Thank God, none of our Generals
are killed, but Maj. Gen. Pillow and Bri
gadier Geu. Shields were both wounded
severely, hut were doinj well at last ac
counts. Col's Mcintosh and C. Ransom,
Lieut. Col. Martin Scott, Lieut. Col. Gra
ham, of Infantry, Lieut. Col. Baxter of
the New York regiment, asd Lieut. Col.
Dickinson, of the South Carolina regi
ment are dead. For the rest of the de
plorable lost, we refer to Kendall's letters.
'In tSte battle of King's Mill, seven
hundred. Of the 8th, Gen. Worth's di
vision lost about six hundred men in kil
led and wounded, in the battle. Of the
13th, the storming of Chepultepcc and
the attack on the citadel, Quitman's divi
sion lost 300 men.Twigg's 263, Pillow's
142, and Worth's 138 making the loss
81S in all. Worth had scarcely 1000

"Our entire los? since leaving Puebla,
in killed, wounded, and misting, Kendall
sets down at full 3000. Another author
ity mikes it 4000, and yet Gen. Scott en
tered the valley of Mexico with an army
of cj ul v a little exceeding ten thousand
men. What wonders have these 10,000
men achieved !
'The Mexican accounts representing
that uo were at any time seriously repul
sed, arc not true. The Mexican loss is
not definitely ascertained, but Was enor
mous. "Gc:i. Bravo W2S hot killed, but taken
prisoner. We do notice that Santa An

Alarming FrcsSteL Great Dcs
trucUoii of Prcpcfiy.
The heavy rami of last week, added to
the swollen slate of the streams produced
by the recent rains, caused a flood which
has been very destructive all along ihe
line of our public improvements. Penn
sylvania has suflered severely. The Ca
nal at Duncan's Island, above this place,
is entirely swept a way, as much so as af
ter the flood of 1846.
The J::iu.i'.a C;mai has been so serious
ly damaged, thai it will be impossible to
repair it during the present season while
the Y. Branch division it is thought, can
not be rendered navigable for two or three
weeks. Two or three ccqueducts have

he Pennsylvania Canal, between Har-

liuimport Inundated. Immune De
struction of Property.
Extract of a letter, dated ' ,
Hcntincdon, Oct. 8, 1847.
DEAR Sib: The raine ..f U'
bwcufffd tae greatest flood in. the Ju-
niata which bas'occurred since the memo
rable pumpkin flood of 1793. Last night
the rain came down in torrents, which
continued up to about 12 o'clock, ibis day.
This morning the valley opposite this
town, up to the base of the hill, was one
vast waste of waters. The destruction to f
public and private properly has been im
mense. I ana as yet unable to ascertain
the extent of the damage, but sufficient to
say, that all here concur in the opinion
that the damage to the Canal above this is
as great, if not greater, than that occasion
ed by the freshet of 1838. The Lock at
Huntingdon dam has been carried away,
as also a portion of thelam. The Pack
et Boat Mohongahela arrived here about
10 o'clock lasi night, and CnpU Kama
very prudently, on account of the rapid ri
sing ol the waters, tied up at this wbarC
It is the general belief that boating for
this season is over, at least between this
acdilollidaysburg. I have heard nothing
from below, ns the turnpike to-day has
been impassable. A number of turnpike
bridges in this neighborhood have been
swept away. Several boats were carried
over the dam above this place, together
with an immense quantity ot flood-wood,
saw-mills, lumber, chicken-coops, pig
pens, houses, &c. &,c. Sic. were carried
past this place on the bosom of the mighty
torrent, which has during the whole of
this day, been sweeping apast us.
The rain had ceased, but at the present
writing, (7 P. M.) has again commenced.
I am unable to give you any further par
Jiculars at this time.
It will be impossible for stages to travel
betweeu this and Ilolhdaysbttrg for some
time. Yours &c.
Additional accounts from the Juniata
and West Branch represent the damages
sustained by the late freshet to be infinite
ly greater than was first believed. The
loss of property has been immense; and it
is not likely that the canals can be placed
in navigable order again before next
season. On the Juniata, there has been
a terrible destruction of property. The
rise in the river was greater than was
ever known before. The Huntingdon
locks and part of the dam have been
swept away, and upon the whole, the
damage is as great, if not greater, than that
sustained by the memorable flood of 1833
A correspondent at Huntingdon writes:
"Houses have been washed from their
foundations boats from the moorings
and the people cf the valley have fled for
refuge to the mountains.
Wc have letters from Williamsport
which give a fearful picture of the disas
ters caused by the almost unprecedented
rise in the West Branca. On trtday
the river commenced rising with alarming
rapidity; and late on Friday evening the
ctttzens of Yv llhamsport were alarmed
with the ringing of bells and loud cries o
turn out,' 'turn out,' 'the flood,' 'the flood,
&c. &c. Men, women, and chik.ren
uv,iv w -v - .-rrvtt v irtlllitgj, unt slann,
trepidation, and excitement seemed to be
ihe order of the night. Every effort was
made to guard cgainst an inundation; but
at about 4 o'clock on Saturday morning,
the river broke over ihe embankment at
the Foundry, and came through the town
with a rush, filling the houses on the low
grounds to the second floor. A corre
spomlenl writes us that he found no difli
cully in making his way in a boat from
. t r www
me iagie Hotel, which is on the main
street, to the packet boat landing. Pine
Creek ncqueduet is reported to have been
swept away; and on the creek above it the
destruction of property has been immense.
On Friday afternoon, at one time, one
mile of saw logs, as thick as thev could
run, passed bv Williamsport. The flood
in the West Branch is said la be 2i feet
higher than that of 1810. We have no
direct or reliable intelligence from the
North Branch. Phil. Bulletin.
The Freshet. The Sutguchanns.-
Accounts have been received from the
whole line of the Tide Water Canal, that
it lias received no injury by the late fresh
ct. A report was published that ihe Port
Deposite bridge had been carried away.
This is a mistake. Some staging that had
been erected under the bridge to make
some repairs, was carried off, but the
bridge itself was not injured. The tele-
grapn wires over it were swept away.
Preparations arc making to have them re
placed, as well as for putting up some
poles that have been washed down on the
tow-pr.th of the canal. The tide was ve-
(ry high at Havre de Grace on Saturday
and
anday, overflowing most of the
wharves; but there was no damage of any
consequence done to cither the wharves
or the property on them.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
Loch Haven hnmdatcd.-Great Destruc
tion of Properly.
Letters from Lock Haven dated the
10th inst. state that the destruction of
property by the flood of last week was im
mense. The West Branch was swelled
to a greater height than has been known
since 1810, the river being eight feet high
er than it was at the time of the memo
rable Tumpkin flood. Lock Haven was
completely inundated, the water being ten
feet deep in Main street. The citizens
were obliged to take their horses, cattle,
&c. into their dwelling houses to save
them. The destruction of property in
the town is very great. The steam Saw
Mill of Mr. G. E. Kinzcr was complete
ly overflowed, and the machinery some
what damaged. The destruction of pro
perty all along the river about Lock Ha
ven was immense. Houses, Slables, Saw
Mills, Grist-Mills, Fences, &c. were
swept off, and many farmers lost all their
grain, cattle, &c . v

Piles Specific.
AX INTERNAL REMEDY :
A CERTAIN AND RADICAL CURE-.
Whether Internal, Dxltrnal, Dieedinsc
'or Blind:
Has made radical cures in even-ease of the a-
bove mentioned complaints, as can be proved by
personal reference, and sevcrjl thousand certifi
cates from all par;s of the country.
The specific is an internal rrmcrfy, has a gen
tle action on the bowels, is pleasant to take,and
perfectly harmless in the most delicate casrs,
male or female. Females before and after con
finement are often troubled wi'.h- constipation of
the bowels, or costiveness, as well as the piles.
In all such cases the Specific can be taken n idi
perfect safety, and is a certain remedy.
PU KG ATI V US NOT NECESSA RY,
So severe in their effects, and so liable to injure
when used (being in mast cases the cause, of piles
when taken during; fever and ague end many
blhcr diseases,) are thus done away, with, as
costivexess is easily removed by using this
medicine, and the bowels restored to a vigorous
and healthy action without leaving any perceptible
effect on the system.
PILES Or SEVEN TEAR'S STANDING CURED.
Dkar DocTon: I have been a perfect victim
to the complaint called Pile, contracted in the
West Indies in 1S38. and during a term of seven
years ha e suffered beyond unvihing that could
be conceived of loss of appetite, food tameless,
want of rest, burning pain, weakncBs in the kid
neys, and a total want cf strength. So decided
ly opposed to anything hearing a resemblance to
quackery, that I have abstained from any inward
or outward application. From the recommen
dation of our mutual friend rotter. No. 4 Han
over st, I tas induced to give your mcdicina a

50,000 Victims every year
fall a prey to consump
tion, ASTHMA AND RAI
SING BLOOD, HECTIC
FEVER AND NIGHT
SWEATS.
Mrs. Adams, I2Gih street, Harlem,"
suffered a year with a cough, pain in ihe
chest, nighlsweats. and all the aggrava
ted symptons of Consumption; nothing
relieved her till she tried Sherman'
Balsam half a bottlecnred her.
ULCERATED LUNGS AND LIVER.
Mr. E. T. Lawrence, Jackson street.
Brooklyn, after Jyears of suffering, and
treated by various physici ins, was pro
nounced incurable from ulcerated lungi
and liver.
DYING,
as was supposed, he tried the Balsam;
its effects were most miraculous; two
bottles cured him.
PLEURISY AND CONSUMPTION".
Mrs. IJaggas, residing a 83 Sheriff

attacks of pleurisy and consumptive
coughs for years. The Balsam has
saved her from very great sufTerintr.
ASTHMA AND CONSUMPTION.
L J. Beats, 89 Delancy sireet gave it
to his sister-in-law who had been an in
talid for years from Asthma; to another
considered as in consumption, (t re
lieved them at once, so that thev travel
led several hundred miles.
SPITTING BLOOD
Is always alarming. It leads to the
worst kind of Consumption, and unless
arrested in time is generally fatal. Sher
man's All-Healing Balsam is the best
remedy it heals the wounded or ruptured
blocd vessels of the lungs, and thereby
effects a permanent cure, while other
remedies only stop the blond for some
time. A few doses of this Balsam will
satisfy the most skeptical that it is the
medicine required It has been success
ful in many cases, and that too whirs
they had ran into a rapid decline, or. a
more gererallv expressed, "HASTY"
CONSUMPTION." You ng person,
or those of middle age, are more subject
lo these attacks than the aged.
Price 25 cents and Si per bottle.
