The schooner Mitie arrived at New Orleans on
the 20th ult., from Vera ( ruz, bringing papers to
the Bth, being eight days later than the adyicee by
the way of Havana:
The Indicador says that the Captain
General at Vera Cruz received des
patches on the sth inst., covering ano
ther from the Secretary of State of the
United States to the Mexican Secretary
of Foreign Affairs. The purport was
unknown to the editor, but he presumes
it to be another proposal on our part for
peace—Mr. Polk presuming that the fall
of Monterey will dispose the Mexicans
to submission. It will turn out to be a
good joke, says the editor bitterly, for
Mr. Polk, (the types make him say Pork)
when he finds out that misfortune has
produced an effect precisely contrary;
and that there is not a man in the na
tion who thinks of peace until the Uni
ted States has given satisfaction for the
injuries inflicted by their Vandal cru
sade. He goes on to say that the su
preme government neither wishes nor is
it authorized to enter upon negotiations.
The subject belongs to the Congress to
assemble in December, which assuredly
will not render null the eflbrts which
the nation is making to obtain by open
force complete justice. There will be
peace, he adds, if the Americans wish
at, but it will be upon these conditions,
and after the preliminaries have been
settled at San Luis, or further towards
the frontier.
Government received despatches on
the Ist. inst., from Santa Anna,
with a
statement of what measures for defence
he had taken, and expressing a hope
that he should be able to repair the
honor of the nation. Santa Anna also
wrote that Gen. Taylor had received
from Washington a million of dollars,
and reinforcements which carried the
humber of his troops to twenty-four
thousand.
A letter written from San Luis Potosi
on the 28th of October, says there were
then 18,000 troops there, and that in fif-
teen days more there would probably be
30,000. There was no room for peopie
in the city, and provisions were excess
ively scarce.
. . .
Gen. Santa Anna had ordered a num
ber of officers to leave their commands
in the army, and repair to the village of
Pews for trial on the charge of cow
ardice at Monterey.
We have a long despatch from Al
monte, giving directions for the execu
tion of a decree of Sales, commanding
people in the possession of arms to bring
them in for the use of the Government,
to be appraised, &c. We have no time
for the details, but the Government
shows itself in earnest in bringing out
all the materiel in the country.
Gen. Santa Anna has declined to re•
eeive any pay for his services. _
The doi , e;nment of the State of San
Luis Potosi has passed a decree expell
ing from its limits every Angfo-Ameri
can living there, giving them 3 days,
counting from Oct. 21, to take their de
parture.
We have the address of Gen. Valen
cia to the inhabitants of Guanajuato, da
ted 30th October, as he was to march to
join Santa Anna. The State is said to
have raised 6000 troops, in every way
perfectly equipped, and to have contri
buted most liberally to the war.
The election of Deputies to the Con
stitutional Congress took place on the
15th ult., in the different States. Senor
Rejon had been returned, and old Her
rera was elected at Jalapa by acclama
tion.
A large number of Indians, said to
reach 2000, had passed from Chihuahua
into Durango, and it was feared they
would enter Zacatecas. Five hundred
mounted troops left Zacatecas on the
22d of October to repel them, and Gen.
Reyes was to leave on the Ist November
and march against them in order to re
store confidence to the affrighted peo
ple.
The Monitor says that Gen. Taylor
had contracted for 25,000 sacks of corn
at $5 per sack. A Mexican to whom
the contract was tendered, refused to
execute it.
Advices from Mazatlan, to the 11th
Oct., state that the American possession
of the country is not peaceful. Several
insurrections had been attempted, and
with a little support they would be suc
cessful.
In Los Angeles there was in Septem
ber an insurrection against the Ameri
cans, The insurgents fortified them
selves in a house, but were attacked by
the Yankees, an action took place in
which the chief of the insurgents and
several others were killed, and many
were wounded.
The Squadron of Occupation was
much weakened, having so many ports
to blockade, and so few men who could
be spared to disembark.
The French Consul at Monterey, Mr.
Gasquet, had been put under arrest for
having protested against the occupation
of California, and an English vessel had
proceeded to the Marquesas to commu
aicat• the news.
The U. S. sloop of war Cyane arrived
at Guaymas and sent four bouts : carry ,
ing 80 men, to seize the brig Coudoc,
which was anchored ih the bay. The
brig opened a vigorous fire upon the
North Americans, and compelled them
Ito retire to the Cyane, which was all the
while bombarding the town, but without
doing much harm. The Cyane has more
than 20 wounded.
At Mazatlin there was, on the 18th of
October, but one of our vessels of war,
but strong reinforcements were expect
ed, bringing 2,500 men with which to
land.
CAPTURE OF TAMPICO.
The Washington Union contains the
following official letter from Corn. Con
ner to the Navy Department, announ
cing his success at Tampico :
U. S. STEAMER SPITFIRE,
Before the town of Tampico,
NOVEMBER 14, 1846.
Sut :—I have the honor to inform the
Department that I entered the river of
Tampico, this morning, with all the
small vessels of the squadron, and a
strong detachment of seamen and ma
rines, from the Cumberland, Mississippi,
St. Mary's, Princeton, and Porpoise.—
On my arrival at the city, I was met by
a deputation from the citizens, offering
the surrender of the place on condition
that their laws, institutions and proper
ty should be respected. I will hold the
place as long as possible ; its impor
tance requires that a garrison of five or
six hundred men should be sent to oc
cupy it as speedily as possible. To ob
tain this object, I have despatched Com
modore Perry to Matamoras, to make
arrangements with Gen. Patterson to
have a force here without delay. As I
deem it important the Mississippi should
sail without delay, I must defer a more
particular statement to another oppor
tunity. I have the honor to be, very
respectfully, your obedient servant,

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20, 1845.
Messrs. Robinson, Collins & Co.—Being
afflicted last spring with a very severe
cough, with pain in my side and breast,
soreness and weakness of the lungs,
shortness of breath, loss of apetite, &c.,
I tried various remedies, but to no good
effect, my cough still continuing and
growing worse. Such was the distress
ing nature of the cough, that I could
not lie in bed night nor day, but was
obliged to sit up in my chair, and could
sleep very little at best ; consequently I
was wearing out very fast, till you very
kindly recommended Dr. Davis's Com
pound Syrup of Wild Cherry and Tar,
the first bottle of which gave me relief,
checked my cough, loosened the phlegm,
caused me to expectorate freely, restored
my appetite, relieved the pain in my
side, healed the soreness of my breast,
and strengthened my lungs, causing me
to breathe freely. I have now taken ten
bottles ; it has entirely cured my cough.
I have gained considerably in flesh. I
think it a most valuable medicine, and
one that ought to be universally known,
that those afflicted with colds and coughs
may have a medicine both safe and sure
to cure, if taken properly. While taking
the medicine, I drunk freely of molasses
and water, which I found excellent to
keep the bowels open. If this state
ment can be found of any benefit to the
afflicted, you are at liberty to make such
use of it as you may think proper.

0 IX YEARS' EXPERIENCE has prov
ed that, for the cure of coughs, colds,
consumptions asthma, spitting of blood,
pain and oppression of the breast, there
is nothing equal to Hance's Compound
Syrup of Horehound.
Tliis medicine has now been in use
for six years, during which time there
has been a constant demand for it, and
its popularity, instead of declining, has
beeen always on the increase.
During this time many new medicines
have sprung up for the cure of the above
complaints, some of which lasted only a
few months, and others not as long; but
Hance's Syrup has readily gone on gain
ing favor with all classes of society, un
til it has now become identified by many
families as a
REGULAR FAMILY MEDICINE.
To those who have never used the
Compound Syrup of Horehound, this no
tice is particularly directed to, as those
who have once experienced its peculiar
ly happy effects, any praise of its merits
would be superfluous.

ANOTHER ASTONISHING CURE.
WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, AL
WAYS TRIUMPHANT ! CURE FOLLOWS
CURE! IN ITS ONWARD VICTORIOUS CA
REER!
DAYTON, Feb. 11, '45.
Mr. J. W. Whitomore:—Dear Sir:—
As you are the regular authorized agent
in Dayton, for the sale of "Dr. Wistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry," I take this
method of making a statement of facts
to you (which I hope may be published
to the world) in reference to an almost
miraculous Cure, wrought in my case
by means of the above Invaluable Bal
sam. _ _
Language fails to describe the salutary
effect it produced and the great benefit I
derived from its use.
The citizens of Dayton and vicinity,
well recollect, that on the Bth of August
last, I received serious injury from the
explosion of a cannon. A portion of its
contents entered my right side and
breast, and in all probability, some frag
ments or splinters of the ram-rod passed
through the plum' and pierced the
lungs.
After the lapse of six weeks, I was
attacked with a distressing cough and
violent pain in my right side. Some
ten days after this, when in a paroxysm
of coughing, suddenly an ulcer broke,
and a large quantity of offensive matter,
mixed with blood, was discharged, most
of which found passage through the
opening of the wound : from this open
ing there frequently passed a quantity
of air, supposed to issue from the lungs.
During all this time my sufferings were
almost intolerable.
My physicians, meanwhile, paid the
strictest attention to me and did all in
their power for my recovery. But with
all their skill they could not reach the
seat of distress, after the lungs had be
come affected. I was visited during this
time by at least twenty physicians.
It was now reduced lo a certainty,
that inflammation of the lungs was rap
idly taking place, and that this would
terminate my life in a short time, was
in the highest degree probable.
At this criticalstate,a a messenger was
dispatched to Cincinnati, and a celebra
ted physician of that place was consult
ed. When he was made acquainted
with my situation, he remarked that
nothing could be done by medical aid,
if the constitution itself was not suffi
cient to throw off the disease.
My friends now despaired of my re
covery, and had no earthly ground of
hope to survive many days. Fortunate
ly at this juncture I saw one of Dr.
Wistar's pamphlets, entitled "Family
Medical Gazette" or treaties on Con
sumption of the lungs, and had often
heard of dying men "catching at straws;"
I felt like doing so myself. By the con
sent of my physicians, I sent to you for
a bottle of medicine described, viz :
" Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,"
which relieved me almost immediately.
After I had used some 5 or 6 bottles, I
so far recovered as to be up and about.
My cough ceased, and my lungs were
restored to a healthy state—all from the
healing and balmy influence, and pow
erful medical virtues of Wistar's Bal
sam. Yours truly,
CHARLES R. SMITH
fly - Read the following from Dr. Jacob
Hoffman, a physician of extensive prac
tice in Huntingdon county :
Dear Sir :—I procured one bottle of
Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,
from Thomas Read, Esq., of this place,
and tried it in a case of obstinate Asth
ma ea a child of Paul Schweble, in which
many other remedies had been tried
without any relief. The balsam gave
sudden relief, and in my opinion the
child is effectually cured by its use.
Yours, &c.
