NEWg FROM MEXICO.
MEXICO-HIGHLY IMPORTANT, IF TRUE.
—We receiVed late on Thursday even'
ing, says the New York G erald, intelli
gence df the highest " r . from
the Rio Grande and the cabinet at Wash
ington. A courier is now in New York
despatched by Gen. Taylor from the
Mead-quarters of the American army,
and we are informed on the most reli
able authority that "no proposals for
peace whatever have yet been made ei
ther by the Mexiean dr Anierican gov
trnment, or by any df their accredited
agents." This Messenger left after
Santa Anna's arrival in Mexico, and af
ter he had had sufficient time to make
advances, if he intended to do so, to
'wards our government. This news we
hardly expected, but it is all explained
by the fact, which the New York Her
ald was the first to proclaim, namely,
that Santa Anna had given assurance to
his friends that, in returning to resume
'the command of the army, he should
most implicitly follow the public will
and inclinations of the people of Mex
ico, in regard to the war. He is now
waiting to learn the popular feeling.—
This is one item.
The second item of intelligence
brought by this courier is " that the
Ministers of England, France and Spain,
in the Capitol of Mexico, have given the
gravest assurance to Santa Anna, that
neither he nor his government shall re
ceive from them one dollar or the slight-
Rat encouragement in prosecuting this
war."
The third item is,
"that up to last Tues
day, no decision had ever been come to
by the Cabinet to attack the Castle of San
Juan d'Ulloa." If these facts be so, and
we havethem on authority which we can
not but credit, the future is all uncertain
ty, but time the great regulator, will de
cide it all.
THE MORMONS.—Affairs at Nauvoo are
rapidly approaching a crisis. The Anti-
Mormons have assembled in large num
bers in the neighborhood of that city,
under a constable named Carlin, and ex
press their determination to destroy the
Temple and remove the remaining Mor
mons. The city and Temple will be de
fended by the new citizens and Mormons,
and it is thought bloody work will ensue,
unless prevented by the authorities.
SUICIDE OF A MEMBER OF CONGRESS.-
We learn by Telegraph from Washing
ton, that the Hon. Felix G. McConnell,
member of Congress from Alabama,
committed suicide at his Hotel, in that
city, yesterday morning, by shooting
himself through the head with a pistol.
Daily Chronicle.
Since the above was in type, we learn
from the same paper that Mr. McConnell
did not shoot himself, but as the fact is
made certain, he stabbed himself with a
large clasp knife three times in the neck
and five times in the stomach. He had
been for two days previous laboring un
der the influence of mania potu. It is
supposed that he died instantly.
Another victim to rum!!
ATTEMPT TO MURDER THE DEPUTY WAti-
DEN OF THE CONNECTICUT STATE PRISON.
~-On Monday, as Mr. Walker, the dep
uty warden, was
_passing a colored prise
oner, named Wilson, the latter struck
him on the forehead with an axe with
which he was chopping wood in the
prison yard. The blow knocked the
warden down and partially stunned him.
The murderer aimed another blow at
his head, but Mr. W. warded it off, so
that the stroke fell upon the calf of his
leg, cutting nearly through the small
bone. A third blow was received on
his arms. As the wretch was in the
act of aiming the fourth blow, a ball
froint the gun of one of the guards en
tered the thigh of the villain and put an
end to his diabolical efforts, just in time
to prevent his putting an end to poor
Walker. The same brute attempted
the life of Mr. Strong, former deputy
Warden.
ID- The Whigs of Lycoming passed
the following resolution at their late
county meeting:
Resolved, That in Gen. JAS. IRVIN we
have a man every way qualified to dis
charge the duties of Governor of this
Commonwealth—a Democrat in action
as well as in principlQ, an honest man, a
firm and consistent friend of all the
great interests of the country, and a
man above the influence of British Free
Trade, and a man who would grace the
Executive chair of this great Common
monwealth, in which we intend to place
him at the very first opportunity.
ALL HE HAD TO SAY.—Anecdotes about
old " Rough and Ready" are all in the
fashion. Here is one said to be " from
the highest authority." Marcy, it is
s t aid, complained to Taylor, "that his des
patches were not sufficiently in detail ;"
to which the old General replied that he
"was sorry for it; that he had put into
them all he had to say !"
