THE RIO GRANDE.
PrOni the New Orleans Picayune, May 30.
The steamship Galveston arrived last evening
from Bram Santiago, which place she left on the
27th inst. She brings a confirmation of the news
brought by the Telegraph. Gen. Taylor has obtain
ed peaceable possession of Matamoros. The Mex
ican army left a large amount of amunition in the
city, which is of course, a valuable acquisition to
our army.
The Mexicans destroyed an immense quantity of
tlfsiv amunition by filling up the wells and throwing
other portions into the river.
General Taylor gave moat positive orders to his
men not to take the slightest article without giving
a fair equivalent.
The citizens were told by Gen. Taylor to continuo
ttfzir business operations, but prohibited them from
selling liquor to any of the army.
Commodore Connor, with most of his squadron,
had left for Pensacola, to refit and reinforce before
tfiaking an attack upon Vera Cruz. Ho intends
tatting with him three or four line of battle ships.
On her pas cage to the seat of war, the Galveston
was the scene of a terrible murder, a man named
Robert Mitchell, of the McKelvy Guards, having
stabbed William Malloy. The deceased was buried
at sea, Capt. Waddell reading the funeral service.
The murderer was immediately put in irons, and
placed in close custody on their arrival at Point
Isabel.
oth. Taylor very soon after taking possession of
Matamoros, despatched two companies of horse to
follow the Mexican army. They accordinly fol
lowed them about fifty miles, but never approached
nearer than six hours travel.
The Mexican army had retreated to
Camargo, about 200 miles from Matamo
ros, it is supposed for reinforcements.—
A party or Col. Twigg's Regiment of Dra
goons, under the command of Copts.
May, Arnold, and Carr, arrived at Point
Isabel on the 25th inst., for the purpose
of recruiting their horses.
Horrible Tragtdy.
We find, says the U, S. Ziaiette, in the
New (Means Tropic, the following pailic-
Wars of a most horrible tragedy, said to
have taken place at the Mammoth Cave,
(Ky.) We give it as we find it, remark
ing that notwitostanding the assurance of
the authenticity of the details, it is most
probable that it would have been heard of
sooner in this city than by way of New
Orleans. The following are particulars
as stated :
"A Mr. Bell, who was the lessee of the
Mammoth Cave Hotel had agreed to sub•
let it to andther person, whose name we
have been unable to learn, and received a
thousand dollars in advance. At about'
the tine the money was paid, a gentlemen
arrived at the Hotel, and wished accom
modation for himself and family. Bell
persuaded the new lessee , to receive them,
&as room was scarce, tell agreed to Share
the bed of the stranger—whose daugh
ter with the daughter of the new les
see—occupied the room in which Mr.
Bell usually slept. This change Was un
known to the new lessee, who had it seems
conceived the horrid plan of murdering
Bell that night, and recovering the money.
At midnight he entered Bell's room with
three accumplites, whose faces were dis
guised by being blackened; and murdele,l
both the young lady and his own daughter!
But the tragedy did not end here, The
strange gentleman hearing a noise, came to
the door of his room with a revolving pi--
tut in his hand, and seeing four men appar.
ently negroes coming from his daughter's
room, shut three ut them dead! The
tomtit tell on his knees, crying out that he
was a white man, and begging for mercy,
*hick was granted, and he confessed the
*hole. lie was immediately committed to
prison. We are assured that these lacts
are in the main, correct, and that the great
est excitement prevailed about Ownesburg,
where the story received imllicit eredit
from the channel through which it came.
We shall probably rectve further particu
lars soon.
Cc:r How puny and contemptible do pol
itical tricksters appear, when contrasted
with such men as Major Ringgold! how
heartless the demagogue who would un
necessarily involve his country in war, in
which brae hearts must bleed, and the tru
ly patriotic men become victima. Where
are the reckless. politicians of Congress
who would war for "the whole of Oregon
or none ;". and Who prate about handling
England as a "helpless infant 7" Are they
now seen, sword in hand, assisting to re
pel an interior foe from our toil, and court
ing honor at the cannon's mouth? No—
they brag, but do not perform: they kin
dle the flame, and thrust others for Ward
to extinguish it, they talk bravely of deeds
of arms but are careful to keep out of the
/way of harm to themselves ; they raise the
whirlwind, but avoid the storm. We
would direct such men to the tomb of Ma
jor Ringgold, to learn a lesson elf patriot
ism and of duty.—Lancaster Examiner.
The Washingtonn correspondent of the Balti
more American says :—Several members of Con
grew; are off or making ready to bo offfor " the wars"
against Mexico. Mr. Bakor, the Whig member
from Illinois, left some days since, it is said, for the
purpose of raising a regiment of men for the ser
vice in Mexico. Mr. Simms, of Mo., and Mr. Yell,
of Arkansas, it is also said, have left or aro about
leaving on the same mission,
The Boston Courier stales that EDWARD W.-
W.II, son of the distinguished Senator, is raising a
company of ‘olunteeis to march to the Rio Grande
DEATH OF THE SECRETARY OF LEGA
TION, AT LONDON.—Private letters of the
highest authority, state, says the New York
True Sun, that Mr. Gatisevourt Melville
died in London about the last of April.
His disease was an aflection of the main
artery of the throat. His sicknese was
protracted and painful. Mr. Melville was
a native of Lansinburgh, N. Y., and a des.
cendent of General Gansevoort. He
studied and practised law in New York,
and was a ready oW-handed speaker. Dur
tng the last Prestlential contest,he devoted
more time in travlling through the country,
and addredsibg public meetingg, than al
most any tither individual. He was a gen
tlemanly, well educated man, of amiable
character, and greatly beloved by his nu
merous friendti.
Mr. McLane was still so Unwell as to
be unable to leaie his rootn. He could
not even be present at the funeral ceremo
nies performed dyer the body of Mr. Mel
ville.
