DEAR
Feeling Severely the fatigue of two days' march
in a hot southern sun, I deferred`writingto you for;
a short period. I suppose yap Will haVe learned l
before my letter reaches yob,, of the manner inj l
which the 'American arms have again l meCtlik

head, and gained a complete - victory ; opening al
clear and unobstructed passage to thel city from;

When
,our arms took up their lirre of march from
Vera Virtz, Gen. Twiggs headed one , day in ad- ' I
vance of. the rest with his division, an fellowingl
i
in his rear were Generals Patterson and Worth.— 1
We received no intimation of an oppoiltion at any'
point between Vera Ortiz and 3Olatta, until we II
reached within a few -mites of. Cdrro Gordo, a dis-
Nike of about 60 miles from Vera Cruz, when the'
sound of artillery announced it,—as the foe was
before us, and our first impression was ain't Gen. I
Twiggs was is the midst of an engagement ; which
wake found, however, to.lre en error, all it arose from
our MotiCanuopponentssliscoveringtbat our army
was' pursuingtheir • onward course. ;When Gen.
Tivigge. discovered that they had erected fortifica
tioes and'breastWorks to oppose our d,ourse, hefell
back to a river known as the Rio de la Plana, to
await the arrival of reinforcements. , As soon as
they had arrived, reconnoitering parties were sent
forward, to find the strength of the epemy's forti
fications, breatworks,'&c., and select positions for
the different divisions of the army.
• I should mention here, that, upon the evening oil
our arrival, being
in advance of Gen. Worth's-di-I

further, that his and their deportment, since first
I had the pleasure of meeting them in Mexi

have referred. to this, is from perusing a scurrilous
article, which appeared in a Berks county paper,
reflecting upon his and theirleharacter ; and which,

to the Captain's ;deportment, remarkably to the
contrary In every particular. My friend, Lieut.

on Monday. on foot, from Newark, Wayne county,
bringing with him the sum of twenty dollars, which
he bad saved from his hard earnings during the
past winter, and which Was not required for, the
support of his family. This money he had been
hoarding for the purpose of forwarding to his
brothers and sisters in Ireland, to relieve the cra

it, and it would do him no good to keep it in his

Revolution in Stearn Propidsion.—Under this head,
the Liverpool Tirries describes an invention recently
perfectetthy Mi.. Parkhurst, a gentleman of great
mechanical imfinuity, which, in the opinion of the
editor, must supersede the existing modes of steam
propulsion and revolutionize the traffic by sea. This
invention is discribed by the Times to be entirely
original, and like most useful inventions. beautifully
simple. ;The advantages are threefold—a greatly
increased rate "of speed, a vastly increased power
of stowage, by the reduction of the present cum
brous Machinery in the holds of steamers, and
reduced eXpenditure in the cost ofthe engine power.
A nirditier of 'submerged vertical propellers are
to be fixed on each side of the vessel; these revolve
in unison, and by the force with which they take
hold of the water, and the power which this com
bined aCtion gives them, must send forward the
ship at a ipeed altogether unattainable by ihe pre.
sent or any known system. .It is said by practical
men, that a vessel. so Propelled would cross the
Atlantic in nearly half the time of the best steam
ers nuw:Tmployed in ocean navigation. Experi
ments haye been tried by the aplication of steam
Tower to theselimpellers, one of which, six feet
high, and SO inches,diameter, was.diiven by a six
horse power engine, 204 revolutions per minute,
which a: prettiest gentleman present stated would

The Bed .Roont—The bed room ought not be
heatedjut on the.centrary, to be kept cool as is
consistent with the-feelings and health, and means
ought always to; be • taken to secure a constant
change:of air in it. For these purposes, either
the door ought•to be left partly Open, or windows
opened:rat the top. No fire ought to be allowed,
unless hauler very particular circumstances, if the
room is not unusually large, and even then the fire
ought to be a small one. The curtain of the bed
ought to be of nelight`a tekture, and should be as
little drawn as possible, the floor only in part car
peted,,and there aught to be only necessary chairs.
-tables, &c. Furniture to a remarkable degree,
prevents ventillation, and all woollens, as carpets,
absorbthe moisture, whether from breath or in
damp weather, and so render the air less pure and
more relaxing. A light ought not to ha allowed
in a bed room, if it can be astoided, if it is neces•
sary let it be put into the fireplace. Gas ought
never to be burned in a bed room.
