Latest News, see Postscript, on second 1b... The War Meeting at the Oldrourt House Last night,; was very large awl enthusiastic. excel : lent speeches was made by Col. Hamilton, Judge Patton, Col: S. W. Black and R. IL Kerr. We' will publish, the proceedings in full, on Monday mor ning. CE:).‘ye clip the following article from the Ga . tett* of Friday morning. Taus. A, ROWLET.—This person, who was nominated on Wednesday for Auditor, by the An timasonic. and Whig Convention, we: were quite 'minis - cid - to hear yesterday, is a member of the Mason Fraternity, having joined, report says, quite recently, If this report is true, his nomination to the " Convention for selection for office,was a fraud up on that body which should be owned upon .by every member of the party. The compact exis ting betweeh the Antintasons and Whigs of this county implies that no adhering Mason shall be nominated for office, and the united party are un der no..ebligatiens• to support any one thus clan destinely thrust upon them. We now give notice, that unless Mr. Rowtxr can clear. up these char ges, we shall „remove hist name from our paper, and urge upon the Convention the propriety of • meeting for the nomination of a new man. In 4 tine we believe we shall represent the views of ev ery consistent member of the party, Whig as well as Antiernison. We are satisfied that the Con veution could net have known, with probably a 'few exceptions, that Mr. ROWLEY was a Mason. Had the fact been publicly proclaimed he could hardly have received a vote beyond the person who nominated hint. Tile editor of the Gazette, if we have not been misinformed, should have included others in the above denunciatory article. Mr. HA.Ts rtes., the nominee for Congress, we are told was a Mason, and that when a resident of Somerset, was so zeal ous in the cause that he frequently traveled from that place to Fayette Co. to attend meetings of the Lodge. We have also heard it asserted by some that Itlr. Hastrrox, a few years since, renounced 'Masonry. If Mr. IListeros really did renounce Masonry, the editor of the Gazette, we presume. can give the public some evidence of the fact.— We are also informed by persons who ought to know, and who have examined the list of Delegate,. as published•in the Gazette, that there was several adhering Masons, members of this so called "..34ii tnasonic and IFlite Contention."' If the rumors in circulation are true, the sin _ cere . portion bt the Antimasonic party, have, in deed, been terribly humbugged ! On the 18th of April the annexed article appear ed in the Gazette. It will be iieen that the editor emphatically declamv that "there is one characteris tic of the Sons of Temperance, MORE DANGER- Erni than any thing in Masonry." Is characteristic of all stern societies, gene ral intheir organization. having State and Grand DiVisions, or Lodges. Odd Fellows have different degrees, which are constantly increasing, and so have Masons. There is the Masters Lodge, the Royal Arch Chapter, and the Knight Temptars .Encpapment. Now we have already in this near scczet society, Divisions of the Sons of Tempe rance, and 'Temples of Hoand"Fhe members of, 'the Divisions cannot have access to the Lodges of the 'Temples'—or Trinidars,—any more than members of an Emeeed Apprentice Lodge can to 'lt'tlaster Masons Ledge, or to be a Royal Arch, Chapter. They must pass the ordeal first, take the oath or pledge, and pay down their money. Another characteristic of Masonry and Odd. Fellowship is that no person can be admitted to the higher degrees, without passing through the lower. A man cannot be admitted to the lowest degree of a Chapter until he has passed the high est degree of a Lodge. This rule is carefully ob served iu the Order of . the Sons of Temperance. No one is admitted into the •gemple of Honor artless he is a member of the.lower Divisions. There is one thoracic' ristie of the Sons of Teper. ante more dangerous even than anything belonging to , Masonry. That is the frequent changing of the pase.srord=arhich is none every (hive months. This compels all the mernbers to be on the watch, to tie active, and to.look up to the Grand Divisions, whence these mysterious signs emanate, with awe and respect, retak!ring them honor and obedi ence. . ``' It really passes our comprehension how men, who have profeedjo oppose secret oath bound societies from principle, can unite with this new secret association, which is developing with marvellous rapidity all the characteristics of the older and blood stained societies; and we really hope this new devel opment-will cause many who have been entangled in - this well-laid Masonic net, to break loose at once from its meshes, and that it will stop the growth of this spreading, evil in this community." The editor of the Gazette •in his paper of yes terday having announced his determination to have DIG Rowtx T . fi name erased from the ticket because be is a Mason, we deem it proper to republish th e above and state that we have been assured that one or more of the candidates nominated on Wednesday, are active and influential members of the order de mon:iced above so unjustly and wickedly by the ed itor of the Gazette. The editor, we think, will certainly not be so inconsistent as to oppose Mr. RowLzr because he is a mason, and yet give his support to men who belong to an order which he very recently declared as in one respect, at.least, "more dangerous eren than anything telonging tonta• : .., : -1 ... , .-77::.-.'.• .

They have been harassed night and day, and all look haggard from their want of sleep. The enemy completely invested them, and they - were exposed to cross fires from every direction. Nothing but a special interposition from Divine Providence saved them. Two days before we arrived, Gen. Arista sent a communication to them, to the effect, that it was impossible for Gen. Taylor to 'come, to their as sistance, and he begged them for the sake of hu manity to surrender. They positively declined.— The enemy have fired at them some 2,700 shells and shot, and only killed one officer, one sergeant, and wounded 10 men. This has been done at a cost of $75,000'. Rather expensive work; at that rate the Mexican Government will be much surer to bust .up than their shells! The whole interior of the Fort is filled up with bomb proofs, in which the men took shelter. I would rather have fought fifty battles than have been confined in it during. the bombardment." NIVILDERS By RASEII F:LIOS.-A letter from Fort Polk says:—"We have just heard of some horrible murders, which were committed ou the Ist of May by a patty of Rancheros, on a party of sixteen cit izens coming across the country from Corpus Christi to - this place.

There need not, therefore, be much fear of a scarcity of guns. WORSLIT or IXITATION.—A highly respects- able commercial house in New Orleans (says the Cantrnercid rinws,) said: to their clerks--n Gentl emen, if you are disposed to enlist in your coun try's service, as volunteers, do so; your salaries will continue—and if you return, you shall be re instated in your presdut situation. Therefore serve your country; if yOu desire to do so." FAST Ittaisto.—The new; of the battles fought by Geneal TaYlor on the Bth and 9th, was taken from Montgontery to .I . obile--,-one hUndred and ninety milesin thirteen hours, by a boy fifteen years old, on horseback.; During the entire night he caught and saddled his horses—none of which were in readiness, as he was not looked for by those having the horses in charge. He was rewarded with a cotribution littrse of seventy dollars. Licesse LAW Nut.t.trir.u.—The Mayor of Brooklyn, acting on the decison of the people at the last election, has ordered the dealers in the ardent to close their shop`, but they continue to sell. deeming the law unconstitutional.

The elec tion was then postponed.i • A Poncitase.—P'alcenlitun, the;British Minister, has bought a suit of chamber furniture now in the National Fair, at en expense of $2OOO. The correspondent of a Baltimore paper thinks that this furniture is destined fin. the British Court as .a specimen of Yankee ingenuity and the mechanic's arts of this country. Monnoxs.—We learn from the St. Louis New Era that the last of the Saints were crossing the river on the 2.5 th ult., on their way to California. There were a few remaining in or about the Holy City, for the purpose of settling the affairs of the people, selling the Temple, and taking charge of what had been left behind. So soon as they get through with this business they will leave. and Nauvoo will he rid of the most bigoted set of fan atics that ever existed. A daughter of the Hon. Mr. G.

THE Mc xrnixs.—An American officer writing to the New York Spirit of the Times in relation to the recent battles, says:— „ The General had gained a glorious victory over the best appointed army that Mexico had ever sent into the field, confident of success, in a position se lected by themselves, and with an overwhelming force, at odds more than 3to 1. They had 2000 fresh troops, which were not in the battle of the Bth, and had come over in the morning expressly for the fight. They were veterans of twenty success ful battles, and in their own country, upon which ever side they fought, victory preched. Everything was in their favor—position, numbers, and confi dence, and yet with all these, they were badly whip ped. History does not furnish a parallel with.the battle of La Resca de la Palma. Such is the name of the battle of the 9th. So confident were they of victory; that Ampudia, speaking to Capt. Thornton who was then their prisoner. said that "it was ut- ' terly impossible that it'should be otherwise—that their nUmbers alone were sufficient, independent of those veteran regiments.” Gen. La Vega said that "ifhe had $200,000 in camp, he should have consid ered it as safe as if .at the city ofMexico, and he would have bet that amount, that no ten thousand' ' men could have driven them!" 13:7.A female named Mary King attempted ;o commit 'suicide, by hanging herself in, the. 17th district station house, N. Y. The entrance of another lodger, prevented the sad eatastrophY; when discovered she was nearly insensible, but by prompt attention she was recusitated and will probably re. cover. She, had been put in the Station House for improper conduct in the streets. For the Morning Post. THE OPENING OF THE CAMPAIGN.

As he air , poured without notice, Many of the ladies had not an opportunity of seeing him on his charger.

OFFICIAL AIISCTANT OEN'EIIL'S OFFICE, Harrisburg, June 2, 1846. GENERAL ORDERS, No. 3 In order to avoid a difficulty which exists, in consequence of the temporary absence of many members belonging to regularly organized Volunteer Companies, I deem it proper ;to state, that a copy of the original lull of the company, properly at tested -by the commanding Officer; will be suffi cient evidence of tender of services to the Gover nor. All new members, however, joining compa nies regularly organized, to make up the number required by the Act of Congress, will be required to attach their signatures to the roll. All new companies will be required to attach their signatures, individually, as diiected in Gene ral Orders Nos. I and 2. ARTILLERY and RIFLE COMPANIES, un der their present organization, will be accepted, in tendering their ben ices, to act in the capacity of Infantry. It is the intention of the Adjutant General to be caused to be properly entered on record, both in the military department of the Secretary's Office at Harrisburg, and the Adjubuit General's Office at Bedford, the names of all citizens who may ex hibit their patriotic devotion to the country and its cause, in volunteering, at this important crisis. their services; and he. ticill, also, make an offi4ial publication of the some after the regiments called for have been filled.

CONGRESSIONAL in the Senor, to-day, Mr Houston submitted an amendment to his resolution tendering the thanks of Congress to Gent Taylor and command, con doling with the friends of those who sacrificed their lives at the shrine of their country's rights and honors, at the battles of Palo Alto and Resa ca de la Palma, on the 6th and 9th of May last, and deploring their loss. Ater some conversa tion as to the manner in which the objects of the resolution should be accompliihed, it was referred to the Military Committee, 'together with the House joint resolutions of the same character. Mr. Lewis, from the Committee on Finance. ' submitted resolutions calling upon the President for estimates of the amount!of money required during the present and coming fiscal year, for a proper prosecution of the war with Mexico; also, inquiring the required amount ; as likely to be real ized in the present condition of our finances, with out resort to loans, treasury notes, or direct taxa tion; and if nut, what modification of the existing lawi are required to furnish ample means for the purpose aforementioned. Upno these resolutions and amendments submitted by Mr. Crittenden, an interesting debate ensued; a full report of which will be found under the proper head. Pending the discussion, the further considera tion of the bubje et was postpoued„ and the con sideration of the special onler, the bill to protect the rights of American citizens inpregon was re sumed, the question pending being upon the refer ence of Mr. Bancroft's instruciion to the commit tee haring charge of the bill. After discussion, the instructions, by unanimous consent, were laid upon the table. In reply to a question propounded by Mr. Han negau to any member of the Committee on Fi nance, Mr. Speight stated that the sub-treasury bill would be reported during the present week. The House postponed the special order—the ter ritorial business—until Thursday, and went into Committee of the Whole op the state of the Union on the bill supplementary to the Mexican war bill. The question is to be taken tcsmorrow.— Washington (»lion, June 2. MEXICAN PRESIDENTS In our paper of yesterday; we alluded to the Presidents of Mexico, but the great length of the article in which the allusion 4:as made forbid our publishing their names, and therefore we give them now: Ircaninc—Emperor of the limited monarchy established after the separationifrom Spain—exiled, returned and shot, 1822. GKS. VICTORIA, the first President, elected ) 82 ' 1 . with Gen. Bravo as Vice President, who denoun ced Victoria, but was beaten, surrendered and ban ished. GEN. PEDRAZA—was elected April, 1822, over his opponent, Geri. Guerrero, 1 - ho used violence to displace Lim; he was aided q a force with Santa Anna, at its head, who was defeated, and made his escape. In 1828 (October,) a mob headed by ex- Marquis Cadena seized the gdvernmeut, and Ped raza tied, and Gzunnzao was declared elected, with Busta mcnte for Vice President. Soon after that, Busta mente revolted, civil war ens4d, which ended in the execution of Guerrero in February, 1831, at Oajaca, leaving ; BINTANZNTS in the President's chair. In 1832 Santa Anna marched from Vera Cruz to the Cap ital, made Buttamente resign in favor of .Pedraza, then in exile in Philadelphia, who returned and served out the remainder of his time of the 1328 election; and then SANTA ANNA was elected in May, 1833—taken prisoner at the battle of Sah Jacinto in 1836; Bustamente was then in exile in France, but return ed on hearing of the capture of Santa Anna, and BUSTAMENTE was elected. ;Santa Anna on ob taining his liberty, was in retirement some time on his estate, then took the field 'against Bustamente in 1811, and drove him from tower; and SANTA ANNA became Pre4ident in 1841; and being deposed by GEN. HEnnsas, who sent him to Havana in ex ile; and then Herrera was depsed by Pantuns, who itnsurped dip Presidency, and is now, 18413, the military despu4.—N. N. Globe. HouninLE TUAGEDT.-1103 following horrible narrative is from the New Orleans Tropic of the 26th inst., and excels all doings of the. lend that has been received by us for sortie time: "We have just learned fonii a gentleman who reached the city yesterday, the particulars of a most thrilling tragedy which occured at the Mam moth Cave in Kentucky. A preacher from the neighborhood of the Case, arrived at Owensburg, Davis county, in that State, Where the General As sembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church is convened, and gave the follcaVing particulars:—A Mr. Bell, who was the lessee of the Mammoth Cave Hotel, had agreed to Sublet it to another person, name we have been tillable to learn, and had received a thousand dollars in advance. At about the time the money, MO paid, a_ gentleman arrived at the Hotel, and wished accommodation for himself and family. Bell persuaded the new lessee, who seemed reluctant to receive them, and as room was scarce, Bell agreed to share the bed of the stranger, whose daughter vitht he daughter of the new lessee, occupied the room in which Bell usually slept. This change was unknown to the new lessee, who had, it seems, conceived:the horrible plan of murdering Bell that night, and recovering the mo ney. At midnight he entered Bell's room with three accomplices, whose faces were disguised by being blackened, and murdered both the young la dy and his own daughter. lint the tragedy did not end here. The strange gentleman hearing a noise, came to the door of his room:with a revolving pis tol in his hand, and seeing four men, apparently negroes, coming from his daughter's room, shot three of them dead! The fourth fell on his knees, crying out that he was a white man, and begging for mercy, whiCh was granted, and he then confes sed the whole. He was imniediately committed to prison.. We are assured that these facts are in 1^; MEM! the main toriect, and that the greatest `excitement prevailed at Owensburgh, where the" story receiv ed implicit credit from the channel through which it came. We shall probably have further :particu lars soon. TUE RAVI:Ms or A Tonr.—The New York cor respondent of the Washington Union in ale.tter dated May :a, "To the general note; of praise and :exultation there is one exception iii our city, and one only,.so far as I have seen or heard, and that is Grceley r of the-whiff TribUne.: He'seems actually, mad :that our brave soldiers shoula have gained a victory at all He frets;" and` anti scolds, and ! says that "The World SHALL realize that there are friends of PEACE who dare be faithful to :their cause en_ dance of .whole Parka full of patriotic rowdies"--lrelerring to the great Park meeting of 4U,000 on the 21st,) Truly, Greeley is determined to he the reigning king among the PEACE party!

IS WICKED," AN ADMIRER Montezuma II ascended the Mexican thrtine A. D. 1502, at the age of twenty-three, before Mexico had been discovered by Europeans. He died 30th J une , 15 , 20, in the forty-second year of his age, of wounds inttc'ed by the Sraaish discoterers, Whom he had invited to his royal palace Historians!agree in admiring his ch: rater. On ascending the throne, not content with the spacious residence of his lather, he erected another, much- more magnificent, fronting on the 'plaza mayor of the present city of Mexico. So vast was this great structure, that, as one of the historians informs us, the space covered by its terraced roof might have afforded ample room for thirty knights to rim their courses in a regular tonruay.! His father's palace, although not so high, was so exten sile that the visitors were too much fatigued in wandering, through the apartments. ever to see the whole of it. The palaces were built of red orna mented with marble, the arms of the Montezuma family (an eagle bearing a tiger in his talon's) be ing-sculptured over the main entrance. Crystal fountains, teil by great reservoirs on the neighbor ing hills, played in the vast halls and gardens, and supplied water to hundreds of marble baths in the interior of the palaces. Crowds of nobles and tributary chieftains were continually sauntering through the halls, or loitering away their hours in attendance on the court. Rich carvings in wood adorned the ceilings, and beautiful mats of palm leaf covered the floors. The walls hung with cot ton richly Stained, the skins of wild animals, or gorgeous draperies of feather York wrought in im itation of birds, insects and flowers, in glowing' ra diance of colors. Clouds of incense from golden cesors dithised intoxicating odors through Splen did apartments occupied by the ruse hundred and eighty wives and flue thousand slaves of Monte zuma. He encouraged science and learning, and pub lic schools were established throughout the great est part of his empire. The city of Mexito in his day numbered twice as many inhabitants as at present, and one thousand men were daily einploy ed in watering and sweeping its streets, keeping them so clean that a man could traverse the whole city with . us little danger of soiling his feet as his hands. A careful police guarded the city. Exten sive arsenals, granaries, warehouses, an aviary for the most beautiful birds. menageries, houses for rep tiles and serpents, a collection of human mons ters, fish-ponds built of marble, and museums and public libraries, all on the most extensive scale, ad ded their attractions to the great city of the Aztecs. Gorgeous temples—in which human victims were sacrificed, and their blood baked in bread, or their bodies dressed for food to be devoured by the peo ple at religious festivals—reared their pyramidal altars far above the highest edifices. Thousands of their brother men were thus sacrificed annually. The temple of Maxtili, their war god, was an con structed that its great alarm gong, sounding to bat tle, roused the valley for three leagues around, and called three hundred , thousand armed Aztecs to the immediate relief of their monarch. So vast was the collection of birds of prey, in a building devoted to them, that :Jou turkeys, the cheapest meat in Mexico , were allowed for their daily con sumption. Such were the "Halls of the Montetti- mas!" The slimmer residence of monarch,', on the hill of Chapoltepec, overlooking the city, was surrounded by gardens of several miles in ex tent, and here were preserved until the middle of the last century, two statues of the Emperor and his father. The great cypress trees under Which the Aztecs sovereign and his asosciates once held their moon light revels, still Shade the royal gardens. Some of 'them fifty feet in circumfer ence, are several thousand years old, but are yet as green as in the days of Montezuma, whose ash es, or those of his ancestors, render sacred, in the eyes of the native Mexicans, the hill of Chapolte pee.
