The boat in which he came was escorted by four others --crowded with citizens anxious to pay their respects to him, mid the whole five approached the city side by side, thas forming a splendi I spectacle. The constant firing of cannon from each of the boats, which was an swered by cannon from the shore, the repeated shouts of the joyous multitude, the flaunting banners, and the vast crowds of happy people which thronged the wharf; combined to make the scene highly interesting mat exciting. The Cincinnati Gazette, a prominent whig paper admits that the reception was a glorious one, but objects to the "shouting," which, it thinks, was more "earnest" than "enthusiastic." The Ga. setter must surely have very acute powers of diem imi eatioe, to enable it to.tell, when a crowd mf men are showing at the top of their lungs, whether they at. "enthusiastic" or merely "earnest." But however willing the Gazette is to admit that the shouting was in "earnest," it seems disposed to think that the pro- cession and other ceremonies were not so. The President elect was addressed by Judge N C RSZD t and replied to him in a brief and appropriate speech. The address and reply both seem to have met this approval of the whiga, who have nothing special testy against them. Fram.what we have seen relative to the - reception in Cincinnati, we have no doubt it was highly creditable to the Democracy of that city and gratifyin g to the President Elect--and will contribute much to the en lightenment of our innocent friends the whigs, who will be able to learn, in the course of time, from that and similar demonstrations, who James IC Polk Tag PRESIDISNT ET.ECT. —The Committee of Re• veption appointed to receive President Polk, left for Wheeling yesterday, on the Steamer McLain, limn' which place t y will escort him to Pittsburgh if he should not hje pasted Orough previously to their ar tivah If y meet him, they will probably return to the city with their distinguished guest on Wednesday morning.

Btsuor O'CeNsott's Lecruax.—The second Lee tureof this Rev. gentleman was delivered on Sunday evening in St. Pa..l's Cathedral, to a large and attentive audience. The subject, "The immutability of the .Catholic Church," was one well (*knitted to draw forth the talent of the orator, and was treated in a clear and cormWebensive manner. The fairness and liberality of the Bishop, in his explanation of the doc trines of the Catholic Church, firmly declaring what they are, yet carefully refraining from wounding the feelings of any one of his audience, who might differ with him in matters of belief; is worthy of imitation. "The principles of the Catholic Church, regarding the authority and the use of the Sacred Scriptures," will form the subject of a series of lectures, commen cing mith Thursday evening. Rasrearog Cosixtsitozzas.--We learn from the tision that tho bill of last sessicia, creating a board of revenue comrniaisiuners, for the equalizatio n of State 'Poste, bar been repealed in Senate, by a vote of 20 to -8. It has not yet been acted on by the FIOU3C of Rep. -resentatives. "New JEttsEr —A resolution was adopted in the Rouse of Assembly of New Jersey, on iVednesday, by a.vote 0f33 to , /3, and in the Senate unanimously, re •flattating their Representatives to use their influence and exertiois te prevent the passage of the resolutions for the annexation of TESLIS to the United States, re manly passed by the (lease of Representatives, Packet Ships.—The - United States soiled kw Liverpool on the 27th November, and consequent • liy bas been at sea sixty-four days; the England sailed eat the 2d December, and has been e n fifty-nine days. In summer season, or in ordinary wea•her, much anxi ety would not exist on account of these vessels, but the weather has been unusually severe, and much mom than usual damage done. Several vessels have been diamassed, and on 3 cew ship lost three - mastsly the force of one wave breaking higher than the maintop }nth only . Fa chance of safety for these vessels is having Lt. yaL or some other port of the Western Isles. As no vessel has arrived from these isles, and as the packet ship Erie was oece out of port sonic , - thing like ninety days, as well as the Switzerland, these two vessels, now missing, may not be entirely given up, are although hopes of their ever again entering tbis harbor very small. These ships have large and valuable cargoes, one of them amounting to neatly half a rail hoe of dollars,. The number of passengers in them was smalL r paper. M==l severity. The gale must have been severe on the coast. We learn from the officers of the vessels that arrived yester dgy that it was a perfect hurricane. The U S steam ship Princeton was boarded on Tues day morning, off the Tavern House, and a pilot put on board. When last seen, she had all her sails furled, and was standing off shore, right in the teeth of th e gale, wider steam. This shows the greet value of the submerged propellors to all vessels in storms, especi ally when they are on a lee shore. The Princeton, from a cruise, went to the assistance of the schooner John Hill, which was totally dismasted in the gale, while at anchor in the lower Bay, and was Rowed to town. The Princeton had all of her top gallant masts down. The old packet ship Sheffield is below, said to be safe. Site was in a dangerous position in the gale. The New. York Sun of Thursday thus alludes to an accident mentioned in their paper of Wednesday, which has not yet come to hand. The accident in 26th street, to which we alluded yesterday, is more disastrous than at first supposed The number of houses partially blown down is about twenty-three. Commodore De Kay is owner. The houses had only their fronts and two sides up, the rear wall not having yet been commenced, which caused the disaster. The wind had full sweep upon the front and side walls as upon the sails of a ship. The workmen very fortumualy bad lelft the build ings at dinner time, and had not retained, finding it to cold to work. Afore of the storm.—Th e New York Herald of Thursday says: Information was received in town yesterday from Mr Smith, en officer of the customs, residing at hemp. stead, Long Island. that there was a ship ashore near his house, and that he wanted assistance. He also sent word that he bad not boarded her, and had not ascertained her name. Three officers of the custom house were yesterday afternoon despatched in sleighs to their assistance. ~The revenue cotter will sail this morning for the same place. The steamship 'Princeton mien. ) having seen a large ship ashore at Barnegat. • - There is a report of a ship being ashore near the Woodlands. The north side Staten Island steamboat Cinderel la, on her passage down yesterday afternoon; got in the ice, and with great difficulty succeeded in getting` out, after baying been in two haunt. The South and Fulton Ferry !steamboats found it hard work in crossing during the day in consequence of the immense quantities of ice in the river. They stopped running at about 7 o'clock last night. Tho Jersey City Ferry steamboats were compelled to land their passengers at Whitehall, having beon una ble to effect a landing at their own ferries. Fields of large ko blockaded the East River througho u t the day; the Upper Bay is also full of floating ice. By the New Haven, Hartford. and Providence pa pers, we learn that the storm was equally severe as in the neigh borhoodef New York, blocking up the streets and almost obstructing locomotion. HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO. Surrender of Santa Ana—Probable End of the War for the Present.--The fast sailing brig Roman de Zaldo, Capt. Kingbury, arrived at New York on Wednesday, in a remarkably short Passage from Ye: ra Cruz, with letters and papers from that city to the 4th ult. The intelligence is of the utmost impor- A correspondent of the Herald, under the date o Vera Cruz, Jan 13, 184.5, says:— "This city is still in a state of great excitetnent. Citizens and the milita ry-are on guard every night. Santa Anna attacked Puebla on the Bth instant, but was driven eff with some loss. On the 9th he again attacked it, and was again repulsed. In the last attack he lost eight hun dred men. He then mired to a small town near Pe rote, and thence seat three commissiortere to the city of Mezirn, to offer to surrender on conditions. Find ing that fighting will lilt avail him, be resorts to di plomacy to save his head." The following is the official notice of the surren der:— From Dario de Vera Cruz, Jan 13.] General in Chief and Secretary's Office, Puebla. Jan. 11, 1845. Bulletin, No 15--Aresy of Operation. His Excellency Don Antonio de Hero of Tamed, and Don Jose Maria Mendoza yesterday took depart urefor the capital of Mexico. On the same night they were followed by Gen. Don Pedro Cortazer. These three officers are despatched to treat with the Su preme Government fur the settlement of all difficul ties now existing in the Republic, and for the preven tion of further bloodshed. therefore, order all the forces that cover the lines around this city, and now under my comand, to suspend all acts oflostilidell: to abandon the positions they now occupy, and to retire t* the town of Amzoc, there to await the result of the negotiations of those officers. in view of thiscommisorioc, I doubt not that second. ing the philanthropy by which Z am animated, yew will order the forces under your command to sus pend, on their part, all hostilities, and avoid the Ora 'ion of blood, which should be carefully preserved, to be shed only when necessary, and against a foreign foe. God and Liberty. Head Quarters, Jan 10, 7 P. M. ANTONto LocZ DE ToGen Dom feezAco Da YNTCTAN. S•NTA AN•. It may be that this is only a ruse on the part of San k Ana to gain time, in order to strike 'a more deci sive blow. He is too shrewd a tactician not to see a check mate in a brief delay. It is very evident, how. ever, that thus far he has had the worst of the ' fight and has been driven into diplomacy. The Mexican steamer Montezuma arrived in Vera Cruz with troops from Campeachy, as the Roman came out. These troops were to oppose Santa Are, and protect Vera Cruz. Vera Cray, Jan 13, 184 5.—Genetal Santa Ana, after having made five different attacks on the city of Puebla, and being repulsed in each attack with some considerable loss, has been obliged to decamp, with all his troops, (some 4,000 men,) and according to the latest news from Jalapa, is on his way to this city, but must first pass a defile about 15 miles from Jalapa, which is well fortified, and commanded by Gen Jose Rincon in person. If Santa Ana should be successful here, he will again meet with obitacles from the troops stationed in Perote Nationals, after passing which place there will be ncthing to prevent his coming with in three miles of this city. Here the fortifications. although not complete. are sufficently well attended to prevent his taking the city; but, possibly, he may be able to effect his escape on laud an English frigate, stationed at Sacraficois, with orders, as report says, to receive him and protect his person. Should he, however, determine to beseige the place, Generals Bravo and Paredes, wbo left Puebla, co the 10th ham., with 10,000 good sokiiors, between cavalry and hkfantry, will soon be on his rear, and.his fate must be determined: and if taken prisoners, as be is iglaw*imay.yieh, havift; as is paritivety known,. more tlBO twelve /trillions of dollars in England, jt is nioPe than probable that, by using this' money in a good way, he will save hie own and the live. of his akin; although. by big more than brutal conduct in Puebla, he has fie feited all claim to the indulgence of either Mexicang or foreignei 5. The officers commanding the city ere Gens. Nora and kfunandes; the castle is under command of Gen Juan Soto, a moat sterling man, and an inveterate enemy of Santa Ana.

FLOUR AND WHEAT EXPORT OF OHIO. At the clam of the wheat season, in each year, we have taken occasion togive a view of the wheat pro duction. In our last article we esteemed the produc tion of wheat in Ohio at about eighteen millions of bushels, and the export at about eight millimw,--eome what less than half. As this is by far the largest crop, and the largest export produced in any State -of the Union, it is a very important matter to the general re sults of commerce. The report of the Board of Public Works and the Statistics of several towers enable us to ascertain very nearly the exact amount of the wheat export of Ohio. We have compiled a view of the entire wheat trade, which the reader will find below. Considering the age of the Stale it is quite a remarkable result. Terms I. &tipsiest, of Flour-Oki° canal.
