Mexico and the United States.
The news from Mexico, inserted below, is
of a stirring character.
The indications arc, that Mexico has,
ere this, determined upon some hostile
step. Whether war, direct or non-inter
cmirse, remains to be seen. The New
Orleans Bulletin, remarking upon the
news, says " the accounts from Mexico
represent the ignorant rabble, who form
the mass of the population, to be clamor
ous for war. Froin this tact, it is appa
rent that the Administration party, in or
der to court popularity, will be forced to
make some demonstration of hostility to
ward this country. As the interdiction of
commerce, by the declaration of an em
bargo, comes nearest to a state of hostil
ity, without amounting exactly to an open
act of war, it is altogether probable that
this will be the first step in the progress
to belligerency. It is also a kind of pas
sive warfare, better suited to the exhaus
tion and imhecility of Mexico, than more
active and vindictive demonstrations of
enmity, requiring the movement of ar
mies in the field and fleets upon the sea.
It is hardly possible to suppose that any
serious intention of prosecuting war can
be entertained by the Mexican Govern
ment. The total want of all the sinews
of Avar, and the entire destitution of the
resources and capabilities necessary for
a state of belligerency, forbid the idea.—
Whatever measures may be adopted,
therefore, by Mexico, indicative of a hos
tile purpose, may well be regarded only
as 'die demonstrations, designed to grat
ify a clamarous and discontented popu
lace. Without some bluster and bravado,
it would not be possible for the party in
power to maintain the ascendency during
the pending elections. A movement of
the kind, then., may well be expected."
Last week further advices were received frem
Mesioo, by way of New Orleans.
They were received at that port by the
Mexican schooner Relampago, from Vera
Cruz, her dates being to the 23rd ult.—
We annex all the items of importance, as
culled out by the Picayune, the Bee, the
Tropic, and the Bulletin :
Among the passengers be the R. was
Senor Arrangoiz, brother of' the Mexican
Consul here, and Mr. Mackay, an Amer
man. The latter brought despatches for
the Hon. Mr. Buchanan, from Mr. Di
mond, United States Consul at Vera Cruz
which were sent on to IVashington yes.
terday by mail.
War against the United Stateehad not
been declared when the Relampago sailed.
It was expected that the mail which ar
rived the previous day would bring the
intelligence, but if it did, it had not pub
licly transpired at Vera Cruz. That it
must be declared, however, was the gen
eral opinion, and we learn verbally that
the Government of Mexico is snaking
strenuous exertions to burrow $12,000,-
4)00 to carry it on. Perhaps the English
bondholders in London would like the job
of lending this money
Vera Crux was said to be very healthy.
They were landing shot and shells from
The Castle of San Juan de Ulua on the
wharves of the former, as was said from
the fear that the castle might fall into the
hands of the United States.
The only American merchant vessels
at Vera Cruz were the Ann Louisa, to
sail for New York on the 30th ult., and
the Water Witch, to sail for this port on
the 26th. By the latter we shall soon re
ceive further intelligence.
A fiery article is quoted from a Vera
Cruz paper, which coneludee thus ;
Mexicans ! to arms ! The common
enemy, taking advantage of our disunion,
menaces us, and is even now at the gates
of the Republic. In the name of inde
pendence, in the name of Mexican liber
ty, fly to inflict upon them the most ex
emplary chastisement, and God save the
nation !" •
The New Orleans Jeffersonian publish•
es an extract of a letter from Vera Cruz,
dated the 22nd ult., which says :
I have to conclude this in a hurry, as
the news is just in town that war has been
declakd against the Americans, and the
vessels arc going off immediately, to pre
vent being seized."
The Courier, after noticing the rumors
afloat, and the above extract, says :
" We have seen letters from Mexico of
July 22, which say war is inevitable.—
The Senate of Mexico bad assembled in
order to discuss the question of peace or
war, and the issue depended on their de
liberations. Until the result was known
the Mexican ports would continue open
as usual to Amer:can trade."
The Bee says:
We are informed yesterday that an
importing house in our city had applied to
the Mexican Consul to know whether he
could clear a vessel for one of the Mex
ican ports on Thursday next, and that the
reply of the Consul was that after Wed
nesday he would be unable to attend to
any such business. As the duty of the
Consul in such cases is to countersign the
manifest, his refusal looks as if there
were some truth in the rumors of war,
now sa prevalent."
It would seem from all this, that Mex
ico was about to adopt some hostile meas.
ure in relation to this country. Proba
bly an embargo has been declared. The
schr. Water-Witch was to sail from Vera
Cruz on the 26th; and by her we shall
probably receive definite intelligence.
California.
Extract of a letter to a gentleman in Ncw
York, dated
MONTEREY: 2001 March, J,845,
My Dear Sir—No doubt you will be
anxious to know the result of the revolu
tion in California, which has terminated
in the following manner :
A few days after you sailed from this
port, Gen. Sutter joined the governor
against Castro, with ninety riflemen and
eighty Indians. Castro, aware that his
force was inferior, left immediately for the
south. The general marched after him
and near the Puebla de los Angeles, he
was attacked by six hundred Californians
and fifty foreigners. They •exchanged a
few shots from their cannon, but the gen
eral, taking into consideration the advan
tages the Californians had over him, be
ing all mounted on horseback, and with
out money or means to support his troops,
he surrendered and complied with their
wishes.
He is now on board the barque Quixotte,
with all his troops, bound lor Mazatlan or
Sun Blas. Don Jose Castro is command
ant general, and Don Pico (of the Puebla)
governor.
Every person feels sorry fur the gener
al. H
Ile is a good kind-hearted man, but,
I really believe, no soldier. What the
consequences from Mexico will be, it is
hard to say. They ought to allow the
Californians to govern themselves.
Later from Texas.
We are indebted to the New Orleans
Picayune, for Galveston dates to the 30th
ult. A portion of the United States
troops under Gen. Taylor, had a►rived,
and been landed.
From all accounts, it would seem that
the Texas Convention is progressing rap
idly with the business before it. It is
thought that the members will get through
with every thing by the middle of this
month, August. The seat of Govern
went, it is said, will probably be contin
ued at Austin for the next lour or live
years.
Dr. D. A. Perry, of Washington county,
Texas. was murdered a few days since,
by a negro, formerly the property of the
doctor. Although there was no witness
to the act, the negro was suspected, ac
cused, confessed the deed and has been
hung.
According to the Civillian, the health
of Galveston continued remarkably good.
The weather had been dry, and rain was
much needed.
A semi-weekly mail has been establish
ed between lVashington and Austin, to
continue during the session.
ARANSAS BAY, July 28,'48.
On Saturday the 26th inst., the Amer
ican Flag was first planted in Texas by
authority, upon the south end of St. Jo
seph's Island, upon which I sin landing
the troops from the Alabama, inside the
Bay. There are now 500 men encamped
here, and the scene is full of interest.—
The other vessels with troops are nut ex
pected to arrive for several days.
The various committees in the Con
vention at Austin, have reported the dif
ferent provisions for a Constitudon of the
State of Texas, and these are published
at length in the Civillian of the 30th ult.
On — the frontiers of Texas all would
appear quiet—we see no account of In
dian disturbances in any quarter.
Tue Texas Dser.—Tho Germantown Tele
graph says that one of the principal questions
which will require the attention of the next Con
gress, will be that of Texas; and ono of the prin
cipal items on that question will be the assumption
of the debt of Texas. A guarantee to this effect,
was no doubt given by the U. S. Charge before an
nexation was consumated. This would be the
most ocjectionable kind of assumption. When
W. Cost Johnson proposed in
.Congress a few
years ago, that the General Government should as
sume the debts of the several States, to preserve
their characters fur integrity 'and honesty, it was
received with a burst of indignation from one end
of the Union to the other, and we shall see who it
will be to take the responsibility to advocate the
monstrous proposition to pay the debt of Texas.
Taker drank at Erie, Pennsylvania, last 9th of
July: „ Our noble oelrea—ao smiling us nature
around us, but nut half bo gran."
The Iron Monster.—The Steam-
ship Great Britian,
The modern wonder in the way of naval
architecture and steam mechanism,• is be
yond all question, the steamship Great
Britian, now at the port of New York.—
Her arrival, we are informed, produced a
scene of the deepest interest and excite
ment. Thousands and tens of thousands
poured down upon the battery, the mo
ment they knew the ship was approach
ing—all anxious to join in the enthusias
tic welcome. A brief notice of the pro
portions, &c., of This great steamer will
be read with interest. She was built at
Bristol, England, of iron, and is worked
with the screw propellor instead of pad
dle-wheels. Her keel was laid in July,
1839, and she was launched in July, 1844,
with her engines on board. In December,
1844, a trial of her steaming powers was
made, and it was proved that she was
completely under the power of her helm,
could make as rapid headway as was de
sired,and consumed coal very economical
ly. Her length of keel•is 289 feet; total
length, 322 feet; beam, 51 feet ; depth,
32 feet 6 inches ; feet of water when load
ed, 16 feet; displacement, 2984 tons;
tonage by old measurement, 3443 tons;
plates of keel nearly one inch thick ;
plates of bottom varying to 3.4 of an
inch at extremes, and to 5 fiths generally ;
topsides 1.2 an inch, and at the extreme
aft 7-16ths. The ribs are framed of an.
gle iron, 6 inches by 3-1 inches, 1-2 inch
thick, and 7-16ths. Distance of ribs
from centre to centre, amidships,l4 inches
increasing to 21 inches at the ends.. Ten
iron sleepers run from the engine room,
gradually diminishing in number to the
lore end of the ship and under the boilers
the platform of which they support—in
midships they are 3 feet 3 inches in depth
supported by angle irons in the form of
inverted archs, and a short distance from
each other. She has five water-tight par
titions; stows 1200 tons of coal ; 1000
tons of measurement ; the engines weigh
340 tons : the boilers 200 ditto, and hold
200 tone of water. The main shaft is 28
inches in diameter in the centre, and 24
inches in the bearings; in the rough, be
fore turned, it weighed 16 tons. It has
been lightened by a hole of ten inches
diameter bored through. A stream of
cold water passes through the cranks and
this hole when the engines are at work.
The screw shalt is in one long and two
short or coupling parts. The part next
the engine, solid, 29 feet by 16 inches
diameter. The hollow intermediate shaft
sixty-five feet, by two feet eight inches
diameter. The screw part is 25feet 6
inches, and also 16 inches diameter. The
total length is 130 feet, and it weighs al
together 58 tons. The screw is of six
arms, 15 feet 6 inches in diameter, 25
feet pitch, and weighs 4 tons. The main
drum is 18 feet diameter,:and drives 4
chains, weighing 7 tons. The screw
shaft drum is 6 feet diameter, and the
weight with the pull when working, is
equal to 85 tons on the bearings of the
main shaft. The cylinders are 4in num
ber, 88 inches each ; stroke, 6 feet ; pow
er, 1000 horses. The condensers are of
wrought iron, 12 feet by 8, and 5 deep.
Under the whole space of the engines up
to the top, the angle irons are &Wed.—
The upper, main and saloon decks arc of
wood; the 2 cargo decks are of iron.—
The officers and seaman are all accomrno
dated on two decks under the forecastle.
From the ship's bottom to the upper deck
runs on either side, for the whole length
of the engines and boiler space, a strong
i-on partition forming below the coal bun
kers; and above, the servants' accomo
dations on one side, engineers' cabins'
and stokers' accommodations on the
otber, besides 26 water closets. She has
six masts, fitted with iron rigging, adopt
ed in conseqnence of its offering two
thirds less resistance than hemp, a great
point going head to wind.
It was originally intended that this ship
should have but five masts, but there was
some difficulty in adjusting that number
and the alternative was either six or four.
As at present arranged, the Great Britian
needs only thirty seamen to work her
sails; but if rigged as ships usually are,
it would require, as many as a large frig
ate. The difference seems to be almost
incredible. 'There is but one sail, the
square mainsail, which requires all hands
to furl it. Five of the six masts are hin
ged for lowering, whenever head winds
set in.
The plain sales of a 52 gun frigate. i. e.
without counting royals, staysails, and
steering sails, number something short of
5,000 yards of canvass, and the plain
sails, i. e. omitting the steering sails, &c.,
of the Great Britian, amount to 4903
yards, or in Oh& words they are alike in
quantity. There are more points of sail
ing in which the centre of effort of the
frigate's or square rigged ship's canvass
will tell better, but there are some in
which the low canvass of the steamer will
have the advantage, and no steamer has
any business with lofty spars or flying
kites. If circumstances should bring the
Great Britian to canvass alone, as her mo
tive power, she will do as well or better
than her neighbors, although the screw will
stop her way perhaps fifteen per cent. In
such an emergency the Captain would dis
connect it, and it would revolve then in
the proportion due to the ship's way, or
not to impede her as if it were a fixture.
She carries four iron life-boats, and two
or wood in the davits, and has on deck
one large iron lifesboat of a new patent
construction, the whole capable of hold
ing four hundred persons. She is built
with lapped in preference to flush joints—
experience and different trials having pro
ved the lap joinst stronger by one fifth of
the whole strength.
The screw has been adopted in prefer.
ence to the paddle-wheel, in consequence
of a number of proved points of superior
ity, as, for instance, the facility afforded
in carrying canvass, the inclination or
heelipg over not affecting the motive of
the propellor, while in a paddle-wheel
craft, the power of one wheel is often use
less. It can only be in the highest sea,
that the screw even partially quits the
water, and then only for a few seconds,
while in the other craft both wheels ate
frequently exposed by the hollow of the
sea leaving them ; the breadth of beam
would make a diffeeence to the Great
Britian, for deck room of 80 feet to 51 ;
the diminished chances from collisions at
sea ; the difference of resistance to wind,
the paddle boxes and their appendages
creating nearly one half the whole resist
ance ; and also the getting rid of the top
weight of frames, shafts, wheels, &c. §•c.
The Great Britian is divided into com
partments, in each of which the engine
pumps cats be applied by means of pipes
and cocks ; the water-tight divisions ad
ding greatly to the strengths of the ship.--
The plan of state rooms and berths shows
that ample room and accommodation is
provided for two hundred and fifty-two
passengers, besides for the officers and
crew.
lancholly Accident.
EXPLOSION OF A PRIVATE GAS
FIXTURE,
The Pittsburg American of the 13th
says :—A accident occurred
last evening in Allegheny City. A Meth
odist Church, called the 'Radical Church'
has procured from some adventurer in
Cincinnati, a private gas establishment for
lighting the Church. Several of the con
gregation, with a view of doing some re
pairs,raised the gasometer out of the wat
er in which it was placed, when it explo
ded with much violence having taken fire
from the candles, and which immediately
communicated to the building, but was
quickly extinguished. The consequences
has been most inelancholly. The sexton,
Mr. Herron, was so badly burnt that he
has since died. We copy the following
from the Gazette :
Mr. Brown, a pedler, living on the But
ler Road,• badly burnt, supposed to be
dangerous.
Wm. Karns ' Esq., Postmaster of Alle
gheny City ba dly burnt, but thought not
to be dangerously injured.
Mr. James Russell, Carpenter, had his
head badly cut, and is supposed to be dan
gerously burnt.
Mr. Issler, very badly burnt, supposed
to be dangerous.
Mr. Henry Williams, Grocer, slightly
burnt.
The distress and confusion was so great
in the neighborhood, that we found it diffi
cult to obtain accurate intelligence. The
report of the explosion alarmed the whole
neighborhood, and the light was very
brilliant. The main body of the church
is not injured.
New and extensive Cotton
Factory.
Messrs. Kennedy, Childs & Co., are
putting up a very splendid building in
Allegheny, immediately above the Saint
Clair street bridge intended for a cotton
factory. It is tour stories high exclusive
of the basement, and is calculated to
drive 7000 spindles. The owners design
to have it in operation about the first of
January.
The building; is one of apparent great
strength and durability, the foundation
being of dressed blocks of atone in a wall
of SO inches. The second story is three
brick or 27 inches—the third 22 and the
fourth 18 inches or 2 brick.—. The beams
and other wood work is of corresponding
strength. The contractors for the build
ing are Messrs. Williaw and Jno. Alston.
Besides the entire building there is an
engine house, picking rosin and office.
The chimney of the engine furnace is a
splendid column, about 100 feet high,
with a base of 8 by 10 feet and tapering
off to 4 ft. 9 in. at the top.
The cost of the works is estimated at
$lOO,OOO. Besides the advantage to me
chanics and laborers in the outlay for
such extensive works, is to be considered
the permanent good which the country is
to derive from their erection,which, should
the wise policy of protection be continued,
must multiply beyond our means to calcu
late. It is certainly gratifying to see the
bold and enterprising spirit of our citizens,
but little less so to sec that enterprise sec
onded by as able and scientific mechanics
as are to be found in any othercity in the
Union.—Pillsbury American.
