and had' a long trip of it; for the tarnal go

length 'Nona Sala Anna just after the bat
tle of C" etro Gordo, and yon never seed a
feller le as had a humor . as he was. I
spoke to him and he'd have nothing to say
to Itriel -- 111Veit told hint f had despatches
from President Bilk for him, he gruffly
saidhOWthated to have aothin to du with
them.
thew told him he oughent to be angry
with'the President ; it was'ut his fault that
a Lietmmitt Clineral was'nt whited ; that
it was the fault of Congress. With that
he snatched the devatehqs from Inc. and
looked 'over and over them again and a
gain, and•stUdyin the matter over, he at
length . Said:
"Well, Major, I see that I can pull the

keep my dander down.
"I'liere." said he, "that's the Pass Polk

for old friends to git at loggerheads about

With that he dew into such a rage that
I thotight he iVould explode right off.
"Friends!" sex he, "friends again, in

it is to be President another term. But

storm- Gibraltar itself, and take it, if he
once put his head that way. There were
the Castle of San Juan' at Vera

every one who seen them thought so im
pregnable that no human army would dare
to face them—and he jist martthed up and

DITIFICULTIES IN THE ARMY.
CONF:IHMATION OF REPORTED
By the arrival of the Maria Qurt at New
Orleans, levers and papers to to the 15th
inst. from Vera,Croz have been received.
The dates from the capital are to the 97th
ult. The Mexican papers claim to have
obtained an advantage over a party of A
mericans, who having landed at Alttleje,
were relisted by the force there all day
and again embarked.
By the.courier from Queretaro, arrived
at the capital the day previous, a communi
cation had been received from the Secreta
ry of Legation, Mr. Thornton. covering
a protest trom Lord Palmerston, the Brit
ish Minister of Foreign Affairs, against
the forcible levying of taxes against the
English residents in Mexico for the pur
pose of supporting the war. These levies
were Made six months since, when the
residents protested against them.
A correspondent of the Monitor. writing
from Queretaro, says that the greater part
of the governors of the di Groot States
were present at the seat of government.
and that, with one exception, (the Gover
nor of San Luis) they were unanimous in
favor of peace. The sessions were soon
to commence, and President Annyi propo.
sea that no line of policy on the subject
should be followed except such
. as the
States suggest, in order to get at once at the
national will.
Gen. Ilustamente has been- ndtitted
by the Supreme Government gene in
chief of the'ariny of reserve; and' common&
ant general of the State.
SANTA ANNA AND HiSPARTIZANS...—Thei
correspondent at the capital, under 'date 'of
Nov. 9341, says : There has been"' rumor
in town for several days past that the par
iizans of Santa Anna had withdrawn from
Congress in compliance with the instruc
tions of dheir chief, for the purpose of-for
cing that body to dissolve, not having aqua
rum. ostensible, reasim iwthnit they
were enraged at the non-sum/as of Cam
pl ido in. reaching the Presidency, This
rumor has been gaining strength a and the
Monitor of this morning refers to it as be%
ing true, and threatens to publish the names
of the seceders, some of Whom, it says, are
now actually in this City. I hear, also,
from a private source. that as soon as A-1
naya found out their object, he expressed
his determination warrest the delinquinit
members. and compel them' to attend to
their duties, in consequence of which some
of them left Queretaro in a hurry. Thai,
partizans of Santa Anna all-belong to the
Pura party, and are for war to the knife.
The Ggyernors were in session and in
conference with the-Ministers. Some ex
citement was " occasioned by one of the
Governors, whose mien, is not, given,
king public the private. deliberations and
secrets of the council.. Ho is said to boa
partisan of Santa Anna when- finger-is
plainly to be seen in this.
TIME DIFFICULTI,INT TT/ Asxv,---The
difficulty- among prominent officers of our
army apppears to have been quite as seri
ous as was represented We publiSh here
the orders - of Gen. Scott, reflecting • upon
the officers who, were _said iu be under or.
GENERAL GRouts--No. 3.
The following regulation has been re
ceived from this War Deparintent :
WARD EST,
Wilkibill6teflallll: 28, 1947.
The President of the United Sixties di
rects that paragraph 850 of the General
Regulation. for the Army. established on
the Ist uf,March, 1825, and not included
in - offribose published..Tanuary 26,1841,
be now published:and that its observance
as a part of the general regulations be strict
ly- enjoined upon the army. ,By °nick of
the President ,
W., Iv MARCY, Sec'y.of War.
TIM following is, the. paragrapher Gen
eral Regulations .for the Army. established
on the lit of March, 1824, referred to a
bore :
880. Private letters or reports. relative
to milittivr.:marchert wruLniterstions, are
frequently mischievous in &sip', sod al
ways ilirgraceful to the army. They are,
therefore, strictly forbidden, and an odicer
found guilty of making such report for , pub
lication, without special permission, or of
placing the writing beyond his control, so
that it finds its way to the press, within
one month after the terininationof thecato
raign, to which it relates, shall be 'hernia

%V*. J. FREEMAN, ,An't Adj. Gen.
GENIMAL ORDIRE-..N0. 349.
Beashpuis tors of the Army,
Mexico, ,111 o?. 12, 1847. '.
The attention of certain *ricers of this
army is called to the foregoing regulation.
which the general-in-chief is resolved to
-enforce so far as it may he in his power.
As yet but two echoes from home of the
brilliant operations of our arms in this ba
sin have reached us; the first in a New
Orleans, and the second through a Tampi
co newspaper.
It requires not a little charity to believe
that the principal heroes of the scandalous
letters alluded to did not Write them, or
specially procure them to , be written, and
the intelligent can be at no loss in conjec
turing the authors—chiefs, partisans, and
pet familiars. To the honor of the ser
vice, the disease—pruriency of fame, not
earned—cannot have seized upon half a
dozen officers, (present,) all of whom, it
is believed, belong to the same two coteries.
False credit may, no doubt, be obtained
at home by such despicable self-put rings
and Malignant exclusion of others; but at
the expense of the just esteem and consid
eration of all honorable-officers who love
their country, their profession, and the
truth of history. The indignation of the
great number of the latter clads cannot fail,
in die end, to Wing down the conceited
and the envious to their proper level.
By command of Maj. Gen. Scott, •
11. L. SCOTT, A. A. A. 0.
The letters alluded to by Gen. Scott as
"the echoes front home," are evidently the
"Leonidas" letter, and a letter which-ap
peared first in the Pittsburg Post, was
thence transferred to the Union, whence
we copied it on the Btli October, with some
introductory remarks, and the whole ap
peared in a l'ampico paper. When Gen.
Scott's orders were published, Lieut. Col.
Duncan Caine out promptly in the North
American with a frank avowal of his con
nection with the "Tampico letter."
l After the publication of the letter con
taming this avowal, Col. Dunenn was pla
ced under arrest. and subsequently Gen.
Pillow was arrested, and next Gen. Worth.
The North American is of opinion that
Gen. Pillow was not arrested on account
of the "Leonidas" low r, but on the follow
hug grounds :
Gen. Pillow, having taken exceptions to
the finding of a court of inquiv, which
itsi.ling had been approved by Scott, addrea.
sled s paper relating to the matter to the
Secretary of IVar, through the command
er-in-ohicf, preserving a copy, which he
avowed In a letter accompanying, he halt
sent, or would send, direct/y 10 the Secre
tary ntA ItashinVon. This transaction
is judged to he a contempt, and for the so
judged contempt Gen. Pillow is arrested.
Not understanding the technicalities of tho
ease, we arc not advised whether part or
the whole transaction is regarded as the con
tempt—bin that is immaterial.
Gen. Worth's arrest is thus noticed it
the North American of the 26th ult :
The latest arrest occurred yesterday—
that of Brevet Major Gen. Worth, and the
charge is, we believe, &intern pt towers the
commander-in chief. Without a full know
ledge of the facts, we do riot prciribse to"
lengthen this article by any remarks upon
this proceeding.

Lombanlini, and tondo* eommiesions to them,
for the purpose of raising 11( now army to sustain

The North American, of the 14th inst., gives
as account of 'a anions army that occurred et the
Capital em Sunday, the Mat ult. Three men, of
she Intend second rengsybranie raitinventa - bad
been attacked by a mob of Leperos in the street
in the Western section of. the city. One, mined
Luke Flgd, was badly wounded. One of them
escaped and called out the guard to the rescue of
timpit)tions, when a general fight ensued. The
guard shot three Mexicans deed and wounded
several others.
The latest dates from the Mexican Congress,
received by this arrival, are to the 6th inst., when
a quorum was present, and business progressing.
Vonte rumors had reached Vera Crus of a design
entertained by Congress to seed the three Mexi
can Commissioners, appointer! to arrange terms of
peace, to Havana, to meet or rather invite the ap•
poinenent of American Commissioners to meet
them there. Mr. Trist had not yet arrived at Ve
ra Crux, though he was momentarily expected, on
his way to Washington.
STILL LATER.—Advices from the city of
Mezico to the 14th inst. have been received at Di,
Oaring% There is no additional intelligetwe bf
interest. The Mexican Congress was still in ses
sion it Queretaro, but the rumors as to its doings
were very contradictory.
Gitor. Scott has issued an army order dividing
the army 'into brigades, under the command of
Rotith, cadmallmler, and Col. Ribey. Be
has aleo issued a vary severe coder against the gu•
reds% who are said to be organizing in larger
numbers. They are to he treated as outlaws, and
no quarters to be given to known murderers and
robbers.
A Wealth:glen correspondent of the , N.
Y. Herald makes the following interesting
statement relative to the difficulties be
tween our principal army officers ;
"We have in item in relation to this sub
ject. from the lips of a gentleman who was
in the city of Mexico before the 4th of De
cember. He presumes that the writing of
the letters is not the origin of the difficulty,
though it is subsidiary ; but that the arrest
I was , in consequence of the disobedience of
orders by — Generk IVonTi, or by Worth
and Pillow conjointly, during the late bat
tles before the city of Mexico. Worth was
ordered to operate upon a certain point at
night, and to surprise the Mexican garri
son, and take the enemy prisoners. This,
however, he did not. He waited until the
next morning. By this time, the Mexicans,
apprised .of the design of the American
commander. prepared furs stout resistance.
The conflict ensued, and the brigade led by
Hen—Monk _lost night. tundre.d men !
Unfortunately I have not before me the
official accounts of the battles, and cannot,
therefore.. be specific. I must take the
words of my informant as true, he being a
man of truth, generally considered, until
south other statement shall be given from
a mare resoonsible source.
.. Major Geoceal Scott has the reputation
of possessing much humanity ; a quality,
which. coupled with bravery and skill,
makes the true soldier. When the army
entered the city of Mexico, he gave orders
not to molest the kperos ; they were, he
said, our friends. In this be is mistaken,
as we well know ; for the greasers made an
unprovoked auack on our troops, and had
to be restrained by powder and ball. To
this humanity we may attribute the anger
engendered against Worth, who. in the o.
Nemo of Scott, needlessly sacrificed eight
hundred men.
GRN. TAYLOit ON TRNPXRANCE.-A let
ter is published trom Gen. Taylor, addres
sed to JamtiVarter of Boston ; in which the
hero of Buena Vista says : "I am myself
virtually an observer of the rule of total
abstinence, and find my health and ability
to endure hardships greatly increased there
by but though in my own person I ob
serve this habit, yet when used in modera
tion, I am not an opponent to the use of ar
dent spirits."
THE SOLDIER ' S Tiamore.—The officers
and mcn of the New, Orleans Artillery
Battalion having invited Gen. TAYLOR to
dine with them on a certain day, were sad
ly disappointed, by learning that he should
leave for home that miming. But this
corps were determined that he should have
some mark of their gratitude and esteem
before leaving. accordingly caused
a huge pasteboard turkey to be made, close
ly resembling a well-baked natural one,
and sent it as a present to him. On the
turkey being opened, at the St. Charles,
on Sunday morning, there appeared with
in it a splendid pair of gold epaulets and a
beautiful sash.
SERIOUS AFFAIR AT YALE COLLEGE.-

inst., and appointed Josue IL 11111111311, the - Beni.
roost, and Joss M. Sotti•avr,the Ftepresetitative
delegates-to the Whig State Convention. Gam
W. SMITIII was nominated as ■ delegate to the
National Convention, with Instructions to support
WINTHELD Scorr for the Presidency. We copy
heveral of the resolution' :
Resolved, Thal, as true and unyielding
Whigs, we are utterly opposed to any po
litical movement having for its object the
abandonment of our present distinctive
party organization, and that we will not
support for any office, State or National,
any candidate who is not known to be a
thorough Whig in practice as well as
principle.
Resolved. That we are in favor of a Whig
Nistional Uonvention for the purpose of
nominating candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency, to be holden at such
time and place as may be designated by a
Caucus of the Whig members of Congress,
and that we will recognize no man as our
candidate who is not presented to us under
the sanction of such Convention.
Resoked, That we entertain the fullest
confidence in the statesmanship as well as
military ability of Gen. WINFIELD

dially recommend him for nomination to

LEBANOS.--The *tugs of Lebenen county

deMon delegates lo the State DanventiOn. The
following is one of the ma Motion, adopted at the

Resolved, That wa will cordially and
zealously unite in the, support of the can
didates nominated by , a National Conven
tion, feeling assured, as we do. that no
one will be placed in nomioation for P,nrs-
Went or Vice President,.who is not a firm
and unwavering Whig:; but that while we
thus pledge ourselves, in advance, to the
support of the nominees of such conven
tion, we avail ourselves of the , same occa
sion to make known our own preference
fur the Presidency by expressing the opin
ion, that in Gen. Warns:lx Bccrrr the
Whig, party would have a candidate for
that office. whose magnanimous conduct
in 1840 and, 1844, bears indubitable evi
dence of his fidelity as a noble, and genet'
ous-hearted Whig, which, combined with
hii high order of qualifications as a states
man, his
,infieaible intecity as a man, and
his unbounded popularity as a hem, a Pa
cificator, and a philanthropist. detwate
him as Tag MAY upon , Whorn the Whigs
should rally."
BLAIR.—Tba Whip of Blair county, on the
21st last. appointed S. S. DLit's, defecate to the
State Convention, and adopted resolutions in favor
of Coe Boott and a National Convention.
GENERAL wort—Rumors from the ar
my would 11105R1 to indict' see that some misunder
standing has arisen at Mimeo° between the Com
mander-in.chief and two or three officers of his
of hlicommand. In the absence of any authen
tic inkirmaticin on the subject, it would appear to
be due to justice and to the brilliant services and
and high character of those concerned, not to form
any opinion unfavorable till the whole facts of the
case are made known.
The duties of a Commanding General in tho
heart of an enemy's country, with an army flush
ed with victory yet inactive, and under the influ.
°noes incident to so perilous a position, aro very
delicate, and can only be met by firmness and the
maintenance of rigorous discipline. It would
seem, therefore, but an act of justice not to pre
judge the case, and certainly not to condemn the
Commander-in-chief until his reasons for what he
may have done are fully made known.— Trilune.
DENS. SCOTT AND SHIELDS.—General
Suisun, understood to be democratic in his po
litical views, speaking of Gen. Scorn, at Augusta,
Ga., remarked, "that though ho entered the army
prejudiced against Gen. Scott, ho considered him,
after his experience under his command, u har
ing OW firing superior in the qualities of a great
commander,"
CET The Butler County Whig runs up the

SERGT. WM. J. MILLER.—The friends of
this gentleman, for whose fate the gloomiest ap
prehension have been entertained fur some months,
will be pleased to learn that seveml letters were
received from him a few day's since, giving the
gratifying assunanceof his recovery from the severe
disease which hid confined him so long at Perot°.
We ire indebted to the:kindness of H. I. instal -
area, Esq., for the following extracts from a letter
received by him yesterday. It will be read with
interest by the writer's numerous friends :
Veen Cavz, Nov. 27, 1847.
DEAR Sta :—Since the emotion of Adam
:lawn to the prpsqnt dpy there never was
cif a warns,lrbuiliteivi that we
came out here to fight the Mexicans. Well,
we ha* - tbillet thertrimdsivhippetiAtheter

throats left to form ® him a bo Ely guard.—
Walter, Ohler and Tillui were in'all the
'attics on theyoute to , the city except Car-.
ro Gordo; they behaved like' men, and
were greatly praised by our ‘Captinh and
other officers. They fought so well thin
the General made them a present ofa neve
uniform. lam sorry to say that Pattern'
died it Matamorns—he was a clever fel
low.. was left at Pertne Castle with 'an
attack similar to that which Iliad while
with you—a yielent c opugh andtigh fever.
The doctor had bet poor hopes of my , re-
CoVery, and I had none at all. 'I lay there,
over four monthein a most critical state,
and c alifigvarry to my graie the seers that
diseausli l le left on - me, ''thecorieeqiiences
of illistiree a soldier's soft bed, inado.up of
rum plwt and et bhut.W. ;1 know that
you . have no idea of the suffering of sick
American soldiers in this country, and if I
were to tell you the naked" truth you would
not credit it. In the short space of four,
months while I was there, over oue thou
sand died with disease and neglect. Du
ring the month of August they buried from
eighteen
. ._to twepty-five daily—eight:outil,
tin in one hole-
Fighting the tWeatieans is not the bird
est part to be performed here ; it is the cli
mate; the, fatigues of the. march over a
mountainous and sandy country, with a
burning sun pouring down vengeance on
your head, and nothing but miserable stag
nant. water to drink: and then the water
ing places are so far apart.. For instance,
imagine yourself marching along—with a
knapenok ou your back weighing hot leak
than thirty pounds, a haversack with two
days' rations in it, a canteen containing
two quarts of water, your rifle and aceop
treMents--4rom starlight in the, morning
till dusk in . the evening; and after you get
your coffee, take your turn for guard at
night, which will be tiro hours on and four
off; then, when it comes to your turn to
sleep, pick out the softest place you can
find among , a bed of stones, with the
smoothest one you can find for a pillow.
If any of my Gettysburg friends fancy this
kind of soldiering, tell them to come out
and gain all thb glory they can.
Theis is a rumor' now afloat, (and I am !
told that it comes from good authority,)
that we will all be able to take dinner at
our homes on'next St. Patrick's day. If
it prove true, I shall gladly bid farewell to
Mexico and hereafter let well enough a
lone. The crackers that we have to eat
are so hard that each has to carry a l
sledge to beat them up fine enough to make
them eatable. Alas for our poor teeth !
they are all ground off, and gums have no ;
business with such hardware, I assure you.
Coffee averaging three grains, half brown
ed, to a gallon of water, and then weaken
ed for fear its strengtn might make you
nervous—oh, the luxuries of a foreign
eampaign t-
Give my regards. dm, to all my Gettys
burg friends, and allow me to remain
Your friend,
WM. J. MILLER.

'.Both the democratic papers of this city--the

ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER HIBERNIA
The British steamer Hibernia, arrived
st Boston on Saturday morning, with Oates
from Liverpool to the 4th inst.
The moss important intelligence by this
arrival is of a commercial nature. It is of
a favorable character, although a revival of
business was not so decisive as ninny had
hoped. The apprehension in regard to
the sufficiency of food had abated, which,
of course, is unfavorable to the prospects
of large imports of American grain and
flour at high prices. The demand for
American flour , during the month had be en
moderate, and the price had declined to a
small extent. Cotton had also declined.
The British Parliament had.been enga
ged for some duyb with the subject of trade
and the financial condition of the country,
which led to the expectation that measures
of a salutary Character would be introduced.
The state of Ireland is truly frightful.—
The land reeks with 'assassination from
one end to the other. Government has
proposed a coercion hill of a very mild
and moderate character.
, The afrairs of Italy are in a fair way of
adjustment. The l'ope has opened the
new Council of State at die Vatican, and
his speech has elicited unmixed approba
tion'.
The Royal Rank of Liverpool, the stop
page of which caused so much excitement
a short time since, has resumed bio4ii,css
under favorable circumstances.
The Asiatic cholera is stated to shave
ttlwatieed to the Prussian frontiers.
The most important twws is
that which relates to the etril war in
Switzerland. The great preponderance
of power on the part oh the Federal, or. as
they style themselves, Liberal or Radical
party, was such US to leave no doubt from
the beginning what must be the result of an
appeal to arms. At the date of our last
intelligence the troops of the Diet were on
the march to invest Priburg, which ulti
mately capitulated without resistance as
did subsequently several other cautions.—
There was; however, some fighting. An
arrangement had at last been entered into
between the five great Powers for an inter
vention for the settlement of differences,
and their respective Ministers were on
their way to a place of nnell9rg, which
seems not to have been defiuMely fixed.
A LIRRRAL PRopnsiTWN.—CHART.Es
CALVERT, Esq., of PrineC George's coun

individual shell execute a bond, at the time
of receiving the animal, to give hint good
treatment, and also to exhibithim for three
successive years, at the Annual Fair of the
Prinee George's Agricultural Society, or
forfeit and pay over to the Treasury of
said society the sum of ten dollars for each
and every such failure. The Gazette says,
that the ealVes thus liberally offered, would
readily sell for $3O or'*4o each.
YILLDING 1 , 0 PUISLIC SENTIMENT.--

BISHOP thielft l3 AMONG TIJE. PURITANS.
--..-Tlll3ltetfAl of the dinner of the Sons of
Near Ilnitand, at the Astor House, New
York,erntain thespeech of Bishop Hughes
on-thatrat tibion. lie was drawn out by
the fiiiloytitil teak, from the fre'sident:
"The present Sovereign Puntiffurlionte,
Pius IX."
Mr. V. P. Fessenden, in repeating it, ad
ded, ',two are glad to find any thing of N.
England about him!'
This called up Bishop Hughes, who re
cognized the compliment as one most high
ly appreciated. In reference to the Pope,
he had reason to believe him to be a man
ethinently qualified - ' fer'the great work to
which he was celled. As lo Myself, Said
he, so fiighl'y do I appreciate the compli
ment, which has been paid to him by this
Society, that' it:seems to rme that it can be
responded' urappropriately by no ono ex
cept a soiVof New - England, which I have
not the !tenor to be ; and yet I feel that I
have some claim to the honor, for I am at
least also a down easier. (Cheers.) To
recover from the embarrassment which I
have felt, and which I still feel, allow me
to tell - yod einnething in :the nature of - A
awry recorded among old English legends,
which may not be, after all, quite inappli
cable to my position. For when 4i l re
member how you may have appeared to
me in past times,anct how I, no doubt, must
linve appeared to you,—for i presume some
of you may have seen my name in the
newspaper.—and when I rcinentiber that
Pius IX is the Pope of Rome—by all these
circumstances this English legend is called to
mind at the present time. It appears that
there was in England a person named Giles
Merogginewliether lie was the same
gentleman who furnished thy ghost for the
song long after, I do not know,—but it ap
pears that as lie was jogging home from
town where he had been transacting busi
ness, he felt tieivy null sleep overtook hint
captive without his being at all conscious
of the fact. While he was thus resting by
the way, a passer-by took his horse from -
the cart and treated him to the hospitality
of a rack in the manger. The next day,
as the sun had made some way in the hea
vens, Giles returned to consciousness, bill
being a philosoper,—having been under
the tniiinng of a schoolmaster—lie called
to his aid the rules of Aristranc. to reason
out die case ; and said to himself—lf I am
Giles Seroggins, then I have-lost a horse;
and WI am not Giles Seroggins, then I have
gained a cart. (La ughtertind-cheers.)—
Barring all the antieedents and a •of the
circumstances, I feel something in the same
condition. !ro think that I, who used to
be culled Bishop Hughes, should find
myself in Um midst of the New Eng
land Society. and should hear the health
of Pop . e Pius IX.. proposed by yonr res
pected ehairman in terms so flattering and
received with so much enthusiasm by you
is indeed enough to make me
doubt the reality of things as they present
themselves here to-night. The very fact
of my being here of itself surprises me ;
I did not suppo.e that I should he distin

and in expres,s a 54411111WD( wlnrh has
