ELEVEN AMERICANS IMPRISONED IN MENICO.--;
The Cincituoti Daily Commercial contains a letter
a ddressed from Puebla, June 1, by W. M. McEl.
hang to his father, J. McElhany, a keeper of the
Cincinnati and Harrison turnpike, from which it
would appear that young McElhany and ten other
Americium are held in close confinement there on
a charge of r6bbing. His version of the affair runs
thus:
" On or about the sth of June, 1848, 1, went with
about twenty more young men, set out for Vera
Cruz on horseback. We were very badly armed.
When we arrived at a small town about twelve
miles from this city, we were persuaded to leave
the main mad, and take a nigher cut to Jalapa.—
We proceeded on this new road about forty miles
w hea - ue are attacked by a party of lancers, and all
ter killing eight of our party they made us prison
ers. Aftr securing us, we %ere robbed of every
thing but our shirts and pantaloons. and then taken
to a small town called St. Andres , 'where they held
a consultation whether they should shoot us or not,
and concluded to shoot us the next afternoon, but
they did not; some Colonel interceded for us.—
From that town tbev marched' us to another, and
kept us until Gen. Worth, with the remainder of
the American army, bad left for Jalapa, and then
marched us to this city. When we were coming
here we could see the last of the Art ericans going
on another road, about two miles distance from us,
but we could give them no sign. After we had
been here fifteen days they took us out and.tried us
for highway. robbery. Such a trial and court was
never seen before. The whole court consisted of
the judge and interpreter—no jury or witness. Af
ter trying us he sent us back to prison, where we
remained for seven months_ more, when we were
called nut again and tried after the same manner.
No witnesses have ever appeared. What ground
they have for charging us with this crime we can
not see. Yesterday we were told that they were
going to send our cause to another town, and have
it settled by, another court."

Tstioa Ass:marg.—A few weeks ago, an agent
was dispatched to our Government by the Cana
dian authorities, for the purpose of settling upon
some plan for the most effectual " reciprocity of
trade between the United States and Canada."—
The agent having had a lengthy interview with our
Secretary of State, was conducted' into the pres
ence of Old Zach. After the usual introduction
and civilities, the agent narrated to the Presi lent
the object of his mission.Aleciprocity of trade be
tween the two Governments. The words " Recip
rocity of trade,". seemed to have struck the old
General with awe and astonishment. He had
heard of "reciprocity of affections," " reciprocity
of kindness," etc., but never, reciprocity of trade.
in this dilemma, the General` directed attentitm to
his Secretary of State, and informed the agent that
Clayton attended to all reciprocities," and, in al
most the same breath, asked the agent whether
the " potato rot had vuited Canada." The sudden
change of the subject bewildered the intelligent
agent, and bidding Old Zech adieu he left the
White House.—Baft. Argus.
Miss Ross: Gianni.; alias Mrs. James alias Lo
la Montez, alias Countess of Lima%lA alias Mrs.
Heald, has been arrested in London for biga?py.—
Her first husband, a Mr. James, an officer as the
British East India service, is said to be living s and
she was not divorced at the time of her marriage
With Capt. Reek!. This woman has• .probably
achieved a greater notoriety than any other woman
of modern times. A danseuse, a mistress of lawns
—plebeian by birth, and yet raised to the title and
rank as the wages of her shame, She is now only
twenty-five years of age. She was belied, until it
could be ascertained that Mr. James had not died
precedent to her union with Mr. Heald.
Haulm Auvc.—Upon depositing a coffin in the
receiving vault of the-Light street burial ground, on
Sunday, a human hand was found protruding from
one of the coffins, which had been there since Fri
day last. When examintd closely, the coffin was
found berated open, and the body turned entirely
round. The hand was firmly clenched, and from
appearances, there can be no doubt that the unfor
tunate man was buried alive. lie had died sud
denly, and was buried' too soon.—Phaaddpina

Indians at. Fort Hal Lon the Plains. 'The 'Mai -

morning was rePelted, Itut.Whila the emigrants
were colteclinglheir **laidaelleaUs member: at
tack wis made in whiCh elite o 7 :the company
were killed. The writer then proceeds with the
narrative :
•
The emigrants at this lime mustered all their
men together, numbering from 150 to 200.. They
stationed themeelvea in and around their camp ;
mid about 4 o'clock in lbe A(lternoon, lbw, Indians
made their appearance end stnicknp atnimendous
yell, -which wild have been heard a -mile on - the
plains and rushed into the camp, whereupon Capt.
G. ordered his men to fire, which they Aid -with
great eflect-,killing-4 or 5 and-wounding some 18
or 20. The Indians sent up-their war-whoop, and
fought bravery, and caused the emigrants to retreat
some distance, killing John Ransom Joseph Spars,
Joseph Nevland and 2 or 8 others, whose 'names
are.not recollected; wounding Capt. C. Todd, Gray,
Dunlap and King.
hi the course of half an hour after their retreat,
the emigrants again rallied, and with renewedvig
or, met the red-skins face to face in open combat,
but were again repulsed; nothing daunted, the Yap.
preached the Indians the third time, and commenc
es a deadly attack, and, after a fierce struggle for
forty minutes, the red-skins were obliged' to retreat.
When he left the camp, the dead and dying In
dians were still on the ground. He also states that,
while the express was coming in, three wagons
that were some few miles behind the main train
were attacked by the India4s, and the emigrants
completely stripped.
It might here be proper to say that Capt. Cunn
ingham acted the part of a brave and daring officer ;
he never once flinched from his duty, but with the
most encouraging and consoling words urged his
men on, and like a true Christa in as4well a. a sot.
dier bade them to be merciful if possile. He is
brave as he is , daring, and as noble es he is patriot
ic. Messrs. Grey, Slose, Hetchingson,• and others
are spoken of in the most flatering terms, and in a
word tent whole company fought bravely and patri
otically.
We will now posh forward at as rapid a pace as
possible, and hope, that we may overtake ttrbse
ahead of us and be of some assistance to—them, lo
those who are fighting the battles before. We are
but few in number, 118, and ready.for a brush with
the red men any time. .
This information of this terrible battle comes from
an express rider who brought the intelligence from
where the other stopped off. An express rider
travels fnivn 30 to 40 miles, he then stops and an
other takes his place, and so on all through. I cop.
ied the greater part of this letter from the memo
randum of the rider I hope my next will g ive a
full account of the fight vridi the Indians. . Yours
in haste, JAMES 11•RRIS.

Friox THE PLAlxe.—The officers of the steamer
Cora informs us that they heard it Mated at Inde
pendence that a train of 1813 wagons, belonging to
companies that had started out last Spring for Cali
fornia, might soon be expected back. The infor
mation was brought down by a mountainer, who
gives as a reason for the return of these emigrants
the sickness and del.th among them. Although,
on account of its having ercited some interest -at
Independence, yet we cannot give it implicit cre
dence.
Another California train, comprising five wagons,
crossed the Missouri River on their way to the
plains on last Thursday. The emigrants are from
Niue and some of the adjoining counties. They
purpose to winter in the mountains.
It is stated that the Cholera has been raging to
some extent among the Indians, a short distance
back of Kansas. Thet_Sac, Fox and Kaw Indians
have all felt its effects seierely. While the dis
ease was at its worst, thirty Kaw Indians are said
to have died in a single day. The disease has on
ly very recently begun to abate.—St. Louis Rev.
ARMED EMIGRANTS TO CALIFORNIA IN MIZNIGO.
The National Intelligencer, of Yesterday, contains a
correspondence between the Mexican Envoy at
Washington and the Secretary of State relative to
outraxes committee by parties of armed Americans
passing through Mexico for California. Senor de
la Rosa says that at Paso, in the State of Chihua
hua, numerous parties have entered the country
without passports, destroyed the fields of grain of
the imbacetul inhabitants, and insulted the Mexican
officers so far as to oblige them to place guards for
the protection of theit houses. In some cases, these
adventurers have fired upon the people, under pre
tense that they have been robbed of beast of bur
den. In consequence, the Mexican Government
has given orders for arming the people of the set
tlements, and in future, unless such parties submit
to the laws of the country, they will be pursued
like highway robbers, and, if apprehended, duly
tried for their offenses. If . a bloody encounter
should ensue in consequence, Mexico will have
done no mom than use her legitimate right of resis
tance to aggression. The Envoy, however, hopes
that the United Slates will order such measures eh
will prevent these excesses, and obviate the dan
ger of conflict.
Ma. CLArrox, in reply, says he has Winded the
Envoy's letter to the Secretary of War, with a rec
ommendation that orders to meet the case should
be issued. Mr. CaswroaD, in a letter to Mr. Clay
ton, says that the U. S. Government , cannot inter
tare in the matter. It hastencounTed and" armed
emigration to the Pacific, and if the emigrants go
across the Mexican frontier to do mischief Mexico
must treat them like any other criminals that she
catches ; they must abide the consequences of
their rashness and violence, Mr. Crawford sug
gests finally that if Mexico objects to armed par
ties crossing het territory,, she should give due no
tice to that eflect.
Tel.r.casfutc lif,arrsas.--ThertelegraPh last night
brought ns something more about the Rey abduc
tion case. ft mums from his statement, publisfrted
in the New Orleans papers, that he was abduited,
that he stated to the American Consul at Havana
that he was not, that he applied to the Consul af
terward to be released, and that the Captiin-Gene
ral of Cuba gave him up without a formal demand.
He win now be used as a witness on the trial of
the Spanish Consul at 'New-Orleans; and at fast
