Pay of Toinuteers—illt St wart's Speech.
On the 11th instant, in the House of Ileptesen

personal:explanation in relation to the printed
speech of Mr. SrswAnr, of Pennsylvania, in which
he asserts as a fact that but eight DfillOcriftB vo
ted'to increase the pay of volunteers to $lO per
month. Mr. SAWS' Ell pronounced the statement

The vote given by Mr..c..vart in the speech re_ I

Sawyer:is the vote by which the \ House agreed to

FALT7VL Occunnzscs.—..A. very painful
renc e happened in Athens, Ga. on the (RA inst.
A student in the University, named Dupree, was
in the act of filling his lamp with a mixture Of al
cholaol and camphine, when, by some casualty, it s
coming ignited, it exploded, and in an instant'
was covered with the blazing fluid. Frantic with
pain and terror, be tore himself from his room
mates, who attempted to hold bim, and rushing to
the window, leaped headlong from the second sto.;
:‘. ry, cutting and bruising himself by the fall in al
ftightful manner. His companions ran below im
mediately, and were shocked to find him rolling on
the ground, covered with fire and blood, and groan
ing and crying most pitiously. The fire was ex
tinguished, mid medical aid obtained without delay,
but his recovery was very doubtful. From the
double injury sustained he was suffering the great
est ttony.
(3.liTnisn, of the New York Courier, and GuEE
LT, of the Tribune, two of the leading IVitfg edi
tors of the Union, must be, according to the ac
count each gives of the other, not a whit better
than they ought to be.
Webb speaking of Greely says:—"No reflecting
Man would willingly leave his purse, (the contents
unknown) in the possession of an editor who pro
claims himself a SCOUNDREL by the publication
of .private letters, srotsit from the owner."
Grcely says of Webb, that -4he is almost the
only entxxx.a. he ever helped to run or! ruort
THE STATE PRISON.
RE3IATMARLE.—The last arrival, says the New
York news, ;brings the remarkable intelligence
that a lad, aged 17 years, died recently in the hos
pital of Navin, of glanders, which he had con
tracted from a horse which he attended. The in
fection was received by the boy through a slight
cut on- one of his fingers. Horses, it appears, can
be cured of this frightful disease, but a remedy for
the human subject has hitherto been beyond the
reach of medicine. There must be some mistake
here. It cannot be possible for the human frame
to.contract the revolting and dreadful disease allu
ded to.
3117 was in the Florida service, and one,
day, says a southern paper, while scouting, saw an
- Indian taking aim at him from behind a tree,
Whereupon he put spurs to his horse and rede fu
riously towards the fellow, and struck ills gun i
just in time to give the bullet a direction through
Ida hat. He then deliberately seized the Indian by
the scalplock, jerked him-on his saddle, and, riding
back to the camp, dung him on the ground, saying,
"there, d—n you, lie there."

it is a habit with him, .when he feels a call to thrash
any one, to ask a temporary dismissal from the

ren's tromps left' for Quincy lust week, to be mus
tered into the U. S. service New settlers are
fast arriving at 'Sanyo°, and the city of the Mor-.
mons will soon be filled with an indastrions and
christian Population. The Eagle says:
"The lilnited number of Mormons left in this
county, Continue their Preparations for departure.
One himdred and forty-siX teams have Crossed-the
river at this place since the date 'Of last - week . ., re
port by the troops, and a large number have been
ferried over at Fort Madison.
Many are leaviug in Steamboats, and as far as
we can judge by observation; the number of Mor
mons who !depart by this conveyance about equals
that of thelnew settlers who arrive.
We perceive that most " of those who now cross
the river With their teams, push.directly forward
fur their destination.
With tWo or three exceptions the, camps on the
lowa side ;have disappeared, and we understand
that the road to the Des Moines river is literally
thronged ‘ , .ith wagons and cattle.
If the . Mormons do not starve upon the way side
before they! reach Mexico ; they will come off bet
ter than we anticipate The last accounts.from
the Camp 6f Israel, represent their condition as
any thing hut comfortable. Provisions were be
coming scarce, and an additional' supply could, not
be procuicq. A small portion of their whole
number, only, have as yet crossed the Missouri
river."
The Morinons aie anxious to sell the temple
imniediatel3t. and the Eagle expresses the opinion
that a sale of it be concluded in a few days.
There are a number of thieves in the neighborhood,
who continue their depredations, in the absehce of,
an efficient imlice. The new settlers have held a
meeting fur the purpose of organizing on adequate
police, and fcir starting schools.
"Lieut. Ridgely, who was entitled to a vote in
the council, was at the time in attendance on the
lamented Ringgold, and therefore had no voice in
the matter, but as he galloped up to the battery, on
returning from his visit to the Major, some one
said, "Ridgely were you at the council?" and he
replied "no, I did nouknow that one had been cal
led. hut I hope old Zach will go ahead and bring
the matter to close quarters."
A full account of the battle is now given, and
ample justice is done to the brave men who par
ticipated in the struggle. Alluding to the charge
of May the writer says:—
"The enemy again wavered. Gen. Taylor or

The Yew Orleans Picayune gives the substance ,
of a corresponde4e with Mr. M. Dimond, our for
iner Consul at Venn Cmz, who returned in the
_Mississippi, from which we extract the following.
"In regard to the large English squadron upon
the Pacific, Mr. Dimond is of the opinion that those
sessels had been slot out with reference to the Or
egon question. He does not think it probable that
they hue any instructions respecting the war with
Mexico, or the seizure of California in consequence
01 the war. Touching this matter, however, there
is room for doubt.; The British &et off 'Western
Mexico was quite large, and if the other fleets in
the Pacific join it as was expected by some, it
would be a very fclrmidable force.
-It happened that on one of the Mexican ves
sels released by Captain Gregory, there was a Col.
onel of the Mexican anny—a nephew of General
la Vega. Some. drinks arose as to the propriety
of allowing a rmlitaq prisoner to return to his
country. Captain Gregory asked him if he was
willing to give his parole. "Yea," was the reply.
But," said the colonel, "I am a prisoner now—l
was one of the pei l sons who declared for Santa
Ana, and I MU nowia prisotter sent from Tobasro
to the fort of San Jtian de Ultra." He was allow-'
ed to go ashore without his parole.
The castle of Sari Juan de Ultra is represented
to be in the highest 'atate of preparation. A water ]
battery has been erected in connexion with the I
old fort, and they mount between them two hun
dred guns of the largeat calibre. It appears to be
well understood, hoWever, in our naval service.
that the strength rd . the castle by no means
ensures the stately f the city of Vera Cruz.—
Whenever our
gove ,
nment may determine upon
an attack upon that City, we shall look for its re
duction with as much confidence as we did upon
that of Matamoras, and at no very severe cost.
Recruiting for the 'army was going on at Vera
Cntz; but only a few men, and those of the lowest
sort, were found willMg to enlist. In the city of
Mexico, government expresses arrived frequently
from the army; but a i s nothing of their contests
were allowed to transpire of late, the impression
was that the Mexicana had met with disaster.
The death of the archbishop was a heavy blow
to the monarchical party. Upon his deale bed the
ambitious prelate regretted that his life could not
be spared to assist in Consummating the schemes
of that faction. With ',him the hopes of the nion•
archists have died. I

brim, RC DR ER B/IlDfit.'---Arelltioll has been
made of an order given; for the construction of an
India Rubber Bridge fox, the army in Mexico. It
appears that a similar'bridge was invented some
time ago, and used cluing the Creek war in Ala
anat. The following is a description of it
"It consisted of large hags, or pontons, something
lik cotton bags in' shape, made of India Rubber
clot which being tilled with air and attached tat
\
erall}\together, formed Via ,bridge of fourteen feet
width, and of any length according to the number
of bags used; upon these, were laid light timber to
support 'boards placed latterally, which forming a
smooth lc el surface, adniitted the passage of wag
ons, horses Sze. A detachment of six hundred men
with all the arms and 'accoutrements, including
the field officers mountedi upon horses, marched on
it at once, andt\iften remaining, a 'quarter of hour
going .through the evolutirins to test its strength,
they.cminter marched, Wfth as much facility as if
on terra firma. kiehl pieces with their comple-
ment of matrasses l and their caissons filled with
ammunition, and loaded W l agons, weraalso driven
overit with. the same ease. It was 'mid, that a
troop of horse arriving :at' night .at a river where'
this - bridge was, and seeing it stretched across the
stream, crossed it under \ e impression that'it was]
a common_.bridgc. " The great advantage of. this

EWIDENTS OF THE BATTLE 'FIELD.
The N. o .. Delta, df the 9th, contains quite an
interesting letter, dated Point Isabel, May 20th."
llt is too long to give at length in our columnsi
but several passages deserve to be noticed,-
ter alluding to the battle of the Bth the writer
"The first care of General Taylor was to visit
the wounded and see that every comfort was sup.
plied—ghe constant' and well directed energies of
the medical department left but little for him to
do, every one, whether. Officer or soldier, had been
attended with unwearying care and watchfulness.
The troops having partaken of their meal, the or
der was given to get the command under arms.—
Gen. Taylor here summoned a council of war,
compoied of the heads of the different commands,
in all thirteen, excluding, the commander in chief.
The general after returning thanks for their sup
port and bravery on the Stb, and wising to be
advised as to what they thought best t i be done,
called on each to give :.his , opinion. It was then
ascertained that but four out of the thir een were
in favor of going ahead; the other officers compos- i
ing the council voted, some to entrench where they
were and await the assistance of the Volunteers,'
and others to retire at once to Point . Isiabel, but
the general said, "I will be at Fort Brown before:
night, if I live.""
He adds ' •
"Those who voted for going ahead, as they
watched the countenance of the General, might
have seen the smile of apprObation that lighted up
the old man's honest thee at the moment, though
he bowed with respect to the opinions of those who
differed from him, and in saying engrave on the sa
cred banner of the.stari and stripes the names of Tay
lor, Mclntosh, Morris, Scott and Duncan, I mean no
reflection upon those who voted against them—
they were men tried in 'many a field before, and
their deeds on that day proved them equal to the
best.
Z-lire understand that General Gaine-,
aid, Capt. Calhoun, arrived in Washington th e
evening, by the southern route. His orders from
the War department were received on the 10th by
him, and on the 11th he started fur this city—
traveling night
. and day. We' are happy to hear
that he is in most excellent health, and in finespir

T HE citizens of,Pittsburgh continue to be offered-..
an opportunity to effect insurance upon Abair:
property, by a Domestic institution located,-among
themselves, based upon domestic capital; and con
ducted by directors, in whose prudence, integrity and
good faith they'can readily ascertain whether they
may repose that undoubted security which should
ever attend an assurance transaction.
To persons whoie property has already . been dam
aged_ or destroyed by fire or cater, the advantage of
personally adjtisting the loss with =institution-AT—
noux, will be strikingly evident. To those who suffer.
ed by the Great Fire, this particidar corporation,needs
no recommendation. The prompt paytrient of the
whole amount of its lossess---rte.AutT Two HUNDRED:
THOUSAND DOLLARS--.-DI to them a thacient guarantee
of future security.
It is the part of all prudent men, however forte-- •
nate, to anticipate calamity for the purpose of aTOid- - ;
ing its effects. To such as have hitherto escaped;as
well as to those who have sustained loss,:the facility -
of protectionand. indemnity, offered by this ittstitn
tion, will be the strongest inducement . to avoid the , '
reflections and regrets which must be experienced
by those who suffer without hope of restitution.
