NTA PE &CHIHUAHUA.
LATEST FROM S
Accounts frotn'Sa to Fe to the 17th ult., add
from Chihuahua to the 24th of
,May, have reached
St. Louis. Our latest previDus accounts wero to
the 3d of May. At .hat time Gen. Price was under
orders from Gen. Butiler 'to surrender the property
captured at Santa Cruz, and fall back—evacuating
Chihuahua—to the place where the first intelligence
of the armistice reached him.
Title order Gen. Price had not carried into execu
tion; and it was probable that he would, not lease
Chihuahua on his ret irn to Santa Fe and the United
States, until the return of the express which he had
despatched to Washington for ;instructions for his
future movements, depending, of coarse, upon the
relations existing bet Ween the United States and
Mexico. It was believed that Gov. Fries, who was
re-organizing his army at Panel, meditated mis
chief. He had no artillery, however. Lt. Colonel
Lane had been tried for using insulting language
toward his superior officer, Col. Rails. The result
had been mado public..•
Major Spaulding, paymaster at Chihuahua, was
dangerously sick with a disease of the heart.
Cul Newby, of the Ist Illinois, had chastised the
Navajoes, and they had sued for pence, which we
granted. The substande of the terms is as follows:
A mutual trade shall be carried on between the
parties: the people of the'United States and those
of New Mexico, during its occupation by the Uni
ted States, being permitted to visit parts of the Na-
Navajo country, and the Navajo Indiana to visit all
patia of the United States and t of New Nexico du:
hinfits occupation as above, Without molestation,
ao with full protection.
There shell be restoration of all prisoners held at
the date of this treaty, by either of the parties.
The peoplo of the United States guarantee, du
ring their occupation of New Mexico, the strict ob
servance of this' treaty by the people of the terri
tory. -
The Navajo Indians will deliver to the acting as
sistant quarter-master of the United States, three
hundred sheep, and one hundred mules and horses;
such delivery to be made as indemnity in full for the
expense incurred by the people of the United States
In the campaign.
MURDER IDI ILmvots.—The following particulars
of a murder in Waynesville, Pulaski county, 111.,
are given in an exclienge paper. The crime was
'perpetrated on the Nth ult. The names of the par
ties were Edward H. Dorrell, Esq., a lawyer of the
place, and Dr. Joseph Dallenger. The cause of ill
blood, was one of un aggravated nature. It, appears
that Dallenger made a charge, publicly, predjudicial
to the hitherto irreproachable character of Mils.
Harrel. On Sunday,'Mr: Horrel, in the presence of
witnesses, refuted the slander Mis charge by unmis
takeable evidence. Ile then told the doefor that it
was his intention to Jcill him, and would do it at that
time if it were any other day but Sunday. On the
Monday following, Dr. Dallenger rode to Waynes
ville. On the road he was told that HOrrell await
ed his arrival, swearing to take his life. He did not
heed the warning, however, but went on, and as he
passed into town, liorrel, w itit a rhle, from acovert,
shot him dead. The grand jury of the county has
found a bill of murder in the first degree against
Morrell. Dr. D. was formerly of Cole county.
GENERA La BUTLER xxn TA YLOR.—The recent ap
pearance in Court at New Orleans, of these two dis
tinguished soldiers, who were summoned to answer
in regard to the complaints of some of the volunteers
who wanted to be discharged, is spoken of by many
of the Southern papers, as a remarkable coincidence,
and not likely to occur again ih many years. But
these prints do not say, what they could have said
quite as truly, that this very coincidence furnishes
the occasion for a contrast 'at least as worthy of no
tice and of record. ‘Ve do not allude to that which
must have impressed every spectator on the occa
sion alluded to—the vast intellectual superiority of
Gen. Butler, over his heroic competitor and com
peer—as proved by the easy, eloquent vindication of
himself and the administration, in regard to the
charge of hating been privy to the alteration in the
final order fur the disbanding of the troops. We do
not allude to this contrast, strong and significant as
it was. There was another, more general in its char
ecter, and quite us striking.
Here were two military leaders, both heroes in
the present wen—the one severely wounded at Mon
terey—the other, more lucky, having commended at
four battles without receiving a! scratch. Return
ing home, they find themselves named, Taylor, for
the highest, Butler, for the next highest office in the
gift of the American people. But, strange to say,
not by the seine party! Heroes in the same war, it
was natural that they should have beeu candidates
of the same party—at least while the war was de-,!
nounced by one division, and defended by another
division, of the people of the cowry. .
But not so! Wu. Tuylor is the nominee of those
who have been his ouni.bitteiest foes, during his ab-,
- seine; fo u r it is sadly true, that if the expedients of
present friends had succeeded, while lie was in
Mexico, he never would have liYed to conic home to
accept their tardy honors—he would have tilled one
of Mr. Corwin's "hospitable graves." Look at his
backers! To find out their names-, take the proceed
ings of Congress, of the various State Legislatures,
and of the town and county meetings, held all over
the Union, since the present war broke out, and you
will find them eminent among . those_ who by their
Notes and by their. speeches, ha f ve been aiding and
,coniforting.theMexicans, prof acting the war, and
annoying and impeding the operations of Gen. Tay
lor. It may be said with truth that the great mass
of the anti-war champions are the friends of Gen.
Taylor! •
Nowlook at the men who gathered around Wit
liam 0. Butler! You will flul that wherever there
has been all eloquent voice raised for the war,at home,
or a stout sword drawn for it abroad, that voice is
now raised, and that sword noW sheathed, as a tri
bute to the cause of the countri , , in the person of the
Democratic candidate for the Vice Presidency! The
soldier who would like to support Taylor, shrinks
back with horror when he seek who are his friends,
but rejoices that the bannerol Butler is still upborne,
and flies in the air of heaven unstained either by in
consistency or,insult.
Gen. Taylor stands at the head of his friends tutor
lified.and "ashamed of his associates"—and not the
.lees eso when his eye glance-`i at ths masses who
'gather around Butler, and then he observes the
proud and triumphant air of that gallant General.
Is not the contrast one that leeerves to be record
ed in the newspapers?—Pennkylvernian.
LAND SALES IN 1Ilk: Mt:lulu
Lake Superior News contains
oP.Lond Sales in 'Hurt region:,
The proceeds of the sales of the public lands at the
land office in this place trom t e 10th of June to the
- end of the quarter, June 30t 1, amounted to $!3,-
340 730 f which $1.2. 487 83 was for mineral lauds,
at $2,50 per acre, and 9371 88 for agricultural lands,
token by pre-emptors in small tracts. We are in
formed by the officers, that, aloes the Ist of July,
rthe sales amount to little more than two thousand
•dollorafrom the disposal of agricultural lands—some
.taken 'by pre-emtors aad some bid carat the sale.—
Several small parcels contain gypsum of superior
quality, sold from $3 to -1 50 per acre. The island
, of St. Helena, in the vicinity Of Mackinaw, was pur
chased we understand, by a French gentleman, not
only fin-its-beautiful situation,. but probably for the
- old recollections that cluster around the memory of
ontrenthusiastically admired by every Frenchman.
Several preemtion claims were proven upon Big Bea
ver Island—several at Little Bay de Noquet, and al
so at L'Anse. Among the latter, was one by Rev.
Frederic Baratta, who is well known on the Lake
Superior as one of those devoted missionaries of the
Church of Rome, who have sit often advanced in the
forest for the purpose of chriStanizing the Indian
race. Of this class father Baraga is an excellent
example—modest and unassuming in hip manners,
but classically learned and possessed of rare energy,
and purely interested in spiritual affairs, he has built
houses, established schools, and a church, at his own
expense--teinehing - the childtjen himself, devoting
'his life to the service of the dusky suns of the for
est, and serving God devoutly by doing good to his
'fellows.
The sales of the mineral la de will commence on
'the 81st inst., nud largo quainities, no ,doubt, will
'be sold even at the extravaga price that Congress
has seen fit to place upon them. If the Capitalists
of our country could but see the imniert.e masses of
copper from the Lake Superior region that are hour
ly pasiing our office, sJme othem presenting sides

THOV ALL OF CturiA.—A work on China receu -
ly publisheil in England; says that the great Wa I
which divides China from Tanury, is reputed t
be more thin 3000 miles in length—but the re a l
length does not exceed 1500 miles. Its course is
not always even, sometimes descending into deep
valleys, at others rising to the top of lofty moun
tains. Its height constantly° varies, being much
greater in certain situations, especially in the val
leys, Whilst in some places it does not rise hig4r
than fifteen feet. In some parts this " wall is built
entirely of stone in others of brick, in others of stone
and brick mixed; and such is its breadth that carri6-
g,es can drive along the top with ease. The writbr
aids:{

Upon xamining, this work I was greatly astonish

eight n haulred years ago, it is still so perfect that
it doe not appear to have been finished above acr

Gen. Tailor certainly is f iready to swallow theltthole of
C l üba anti all of Mexico, without stopping nt
the Sierra Mahe, or at any point short of the fistliOis
of Pan:m i ta. Let us see hew Gen. Taylor stantls on the
subject of the extension of our territory.
The following is an extract from a letter Men b y
Gen. Taylor when on the Rio Grande line of operations:
"I do not intend to carry on my operations previ
aisle bUlted) beyond Saltillo, deeming it next to imprac
tical-de to do so. It then becalm:, a question as Ito what
is best to be done. It scents to ma the most judicious

expense of carrying on a war—at The saute tirn , closely
blockading all her ports on the Pacific and the Gulf. A
course of this kind, if perseveral in for n short time,
would soon laiiug her to her proper senses, itittl compel
her to sne for pawe, provided there is a government in
the country sutlicianly stable for us to treat with, which I
fear, will hardly be the case fur many years to come."

Snort after Gan. Taylor's return from Me:Oco, he was
invited Ibv the I..gislaturo of Mississippi to visit that
I •
state. and a committee of thirty was'appointcd to receive
hint. Rumors of what passed in tho interview between
ethe Gen. and the Committee, having reached Washing
ton,,
Mt. Thompson, M. C. from that state, at the instance
of Mr. Botts, wrote to the chairman of the committee of
thirty, M know the purport of tho conversation. The
1
chairman replied as follows :
"In regard to the conversation had with Gen. Taylor, I
have to!, say, we did not talk on the tariff—we did on the I
war. Ho expressed himself IN FAVOR OF THE '
WAR HE SAID HE WAS DECIDEDLY, IN FA-'
VOR OF PROSECUTING IT VIGOROUSLY. till
they shOuld yield an honorable peace ; II E WAS FOR
I NDEMN IT Y CERTAIN, AND THAT 'rE MUM
RIM, I was not wedded to any line particularly, but
though perhaps, as a kind of compromise with'the Wil
mot prdviso men, we had bettor go up to'32 4eg,, making
the Rio Graudo the western boundary up to that degree.
and said THE SOUTH SHOULD NEVER AGREE
TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE WILMOT PRO-
VISO ; although he did not believe there ever would be '
slavery there, yet, if thn country was acquired, the citi
zen should be left free on that subject. lIESAYS ALL
MEXICO WILL EVENTUALLY cy_mE: INTO'
OUR GOVERNMENT BY DEGREES; THAT IT
CANNOT BE AVOIDED. On tho subject of politics,
he said ho was no politician; had been three-fourths of
his life in the army; devoted his time and mind to that
,service and paid but little attention to any thing else."
So 'much for the General's territorial views in that di
rection. But turning from "all of Mexico," let us see
what are his notions in regard to tho annexation of Cu
ha. On this point, if his friends do not belie him, he
is an out-and-out "manifest destiny" extentionist, The
New ;York Mirror, an original Taylor paper, makes Gen.
Taylchspeak thus in regard to the annexation of Cuba:
"llissaid that ho considered that any law passed, pro
hibiting the annexation of any slave territory, was mak
ing- difficulties for future years, of an almostinsurmoune
able character, for said he, Providence, by the course of
events! points opt, that at sonic future .time CUBA .
MUST BECOME EITHER AN INTERGRAL
PART; OR A DEPENDENCY UPON THE ;UNITED
STATES; that it was the only. part of the North Amer
ican Continent worth having, that we do not possess;
and as that country, if ever cause( to be annoied to the
United States, by European into ferenee, must be ad
mitted as a slave; the Wilmot prvise , without having
any present value, is calculated to be A'STUIMBLING
BLOCK WITH REGARD TO C ÜBA; that many em
barrass our action as a govcrnmen , and force us to vio
late ,our own laws, to secure our b Min from a foreign
foe.l' r
If Gen. Taylor be not among th so who reillly "covet
• Cubs," ho certainly does not look recisely with the hor
ror that some Of his plutizams do, ( n the acquisition of
"all of Mexico," "bydegrees"cif , atitudesix or seven
states at a -dash . More than thi s, it would appear from
his conversation with the Miss s ippi committee—that
whilst ho not only. "covets" "a .of Mexico," he is de.
cidedly averse to any ' , proviso"o other restriction on the

"My reasons for stopping the paper I would give you,
