No further arrival from the South Mr. Wm B Smyth leaves here as bearer of despatches from the President for Mexico. I hope he will tske care not to have hia throat cut, and either to resort to stratagem or venture about without a proper escort. I believe that the selection of the gentleman is altogether presidential. I informed you some time ago, that there are various opinions in regard to the manner in which, the war ought to be prosecuted sgainst Mexico, how fsr, and for what ultimate purposes. The result of the election in Maryland may not be without effect on the deliberations of the Cabi net ; and as those of Pennsylvania are so near at hand, these also may be sufT-red to pass before a definite conclusion is come to. The question on which the grestest diversity of opinion may prevail, is probably the adoption of a line of permanent occupation and where that line is to strike. The most tistursl supposition would be that it should be the line srross the Isthmus oi'Tewutrpec, which would comprise all that we desired of Mexico, and which, in her fol ly she resolved upon refusing us. The line from Vera Crui to Mexico, and thence to Acsptilco, indicated in one of my lat letters comes very near it; but, of course, I would, submit to any thing that goes beyond it. The idea of "conquering a peace." held out from the commencement, is now wholly given up; but the ienninu a qito of the wsr may be come a ministerial question. It is a vital ques tion which csnnot be left to in historical conclu sion, as it will require a unanimous effort of all the branches of the government to bring it to a satisfactory tssue. The' time is precious, fir enmstsnces pressing, ever ts pending : within ths next hour the annihilation of Mexico aa an inde pendent nation may be resolved upon. The thought expressed cannot be called bark, mil lion of arms will be raised to realise it. Defuc to we are already masters of this Continent ; the question is whether we shall have the cnuiags to assert our sway. If the administration finally resolve upon thut, we have at h ast the consola tion to know that there never was a iieriod in the history of Europe and Asis more favorsble to the enterprise. Half way measures, however, will not answer, either in the Cabinet or the field I am glad to be able to inform you, thai the King of Prussia, who for a long time obstinately refused to grant the F.xequatur to II r. Charles Graebe, appointed some time ago Consul for the Rhenish provinces of Germany, has, at last, con sented to do so ; Mr. Buchanan having as obsti nately refused to nominate another- gentleman for the office. The consequence waa that there waa no U. S. Consul on the Rhine, and that the merchants and manufactures of those provinces were put to very great inconvenience, which at laat induced William IV to yield. This ia tbe only way in wbirb the Republic of the llMh cen tury will ever make itself respected by monar chy.

I take the liberty of informing yon of a tpld blooded murder, of a young mar. belnngii.g to the North Carolina Regiment, by their Colo-' nel'a own hand, (Col Payne) He had a wooden horse put up for the purpose of riding all of his men on, who did not obey all of hia commands. On the evening of tha Nth inst. tbe men belong ing to tba Virginia and Mississippi Regiments went en mass and rode his horse to death. He then made application to Col.

The majority for Governor, though not as large as has been polled heretofore, is still what may be termed a elever majority. Some of the county officers did not run so well owing to local matters, and circumstances that were not unknown prevoua to tbe election. The mor ning of the election gave promise of a fine day, but towards noon the weather became cold, blustering and rainy, and no doubt prevented many coming to the election. C7 The democratic victory ia greater than expected by either arty. Shnnk's majority will be from 10,000 to 15,000. The Native vote has fallen off. . The late rains have swollen the wsters consideiably, l?p the West Branch of the Sus quehanna, the rise of wster wss very rspid, and we presume corsidersble damace has been done to the public works as well as to individuals At Williamsport, we understand, the river was higher than it has been for thirty years pat.

A number of shocks were brought to shore, and yielded about two bushels of corn each, when hukked. The rise in the North Branch was not great, and consequently but little damage has been done here, aa well as up thst branch of tbe river. Canal navigation bas been suddenly checked, and that, too, at a season when mer chants sre laying in their stork. The Juniata has been very hie;h, and that canal, we presume, has suffered considerably. At Duncan's Island another tremendous break bas ncurrcd, neat the same place, we believe, that had been torn away in 1846. The rush of water was so sudden, as to carry away a small tavern stand near the break' On Friday afternoon one mile of ssw logs, thick as they could run, passed Williamsport. Tirt IisrCA t mr Cansl We under stand that a force of 200 men are st work at tbe break on the canal on Duncan's Island, and that it will be repaired in two weeks. The damage on the Juniata ia immense. Lewistown wss completely inundated, the wster being 30 feet above low water mark. Not a bridge ia left on the Juniata, and it is doubtful if navigation will be resumed this fall.'

WU.on, Vera Cms: My command reached thia place on the morning of the 20th inst. We have fought our way triumphantly eveiy inch of the route, but have had severe con test! nay, battles with the guerrillas; on the 10th at Paso Ovejas, (as before reported,) on the 12th August at the National Bridge, on the :."th of August at Cerro Gordo and on the 19th at Las Animas, only a mile and a half from this city. Not a wagon has fallen into the hands ofthe ene my. We have been opposed by at least 1 ,200 or I 500 guerrillas on these oecssions perhaps less st the last, for they were badly whipped at Cer ro Gordo, where their loss wss so large that they could uot reorganise. Father Jarauta comman ded them. Our loss is great. During the entire march 7 officers wonnded; 12 of rank and file killed; 5 mortally wounded; 66 wounded Of thia number, 4 killed and 4 wounded were at pla ces elsewhere thsn the four actions named above. I regret to ssy, that at the National Bridge Mr. George D. Twiggs (expecting a commission and to be A. D. C. to Gen. T ) was killed while gal lantly serving in my staff; Capt. .1 II. Caiwell, of voltigeura. and. Capt A C Cummings, llth in fantry, were wounded on the 10th. (as before re ported ) but are doing well now. At National Bridge, Lieut Jsmes A Winner, of voltigeiirs, snd Lieut George A Adams, of marine corps, were dangerously wounded; also, on the same day, Cspt W J Clsrk, 12th infuntry, in the thigh; 2d Lieut Charlea MCrenror, 12th infantry, not severely, in the leg. At Los Animas, on the 19th, Major F T Lally, 9th infantry, comman ding officer, was wounded in the neck, not se. verely, but has, for a few days, been disabled from command. A large number of sick hsve acenmulsted, be sides our wounded ; and we shall be compelled to remain here many days to recruit. I cannot too much praiae the gallantry of the officers the men, raw and uninstructed, hsve grsdusMy ac quired confidence. Col. Wynkoop arrived from Perote on the 24th having beard we were in dan ger at Cerro Gordo. We waited three days for your reinforcement, and hearing of it at Plan del Rio, aent back a body, nf dragoons tn National Bridge, who, finding it in possession ol tbe ene my, we concluded that it was repulsed. I am pained at the rumor we heard ofthe loss of some of its wagons. Dr. Cooper and 13 wagons rea ched ua. I cannot too earnestly recommend that you assume the authority to order the re occupa tion of thia city. Even if Gen. Scott was not before the. eity of Mexico, and beyond the reach of reinforcements, yoa perceive that trains are constantly endangered by guerrillas, and I am satisfied thst this city hss been their head quar ters, snd that their chief supplies bsve been for wsrded from here.. Their spirits have been rai sed by absence nf the troops. I am certain that Gen Scott, on the spot, would order its re occu pation. Col. Wynkoop concurs in its importance. Very truly yours. F, T. Lat.tv, Major 9th Infantry, commanding, We understand that Major Lally'a suggestion has been anticipated, and that orders were issued on the 12tb of August, from the office ofthe Ad jutant General, directing the re-occupation of Ja lapa. We presume that before this time a mili tary post hss been estsblisbed in that city. We cannot doubt that Maj.
