'The report of the battle between Gen.
lPearce and the Mexicans was founded
upun.a rumor spread by the passengers
•fhdt arrived in the cars, and does not ap
pereeto be confirmed by the account fur
.nished to the Picayune by the captain
.of` he steamship Orleans. This vessel
left Vera Crux on the 14th, at which
time Gen. Pearce had marched with
2300 men and 150 wagons towards Pue
bla.
The Orleans arrived at Tampico on !
the 'lsth, where the Captain was inform-I
edty Col. Gates that Colonel De Russy
hail departed up the river, with 120
men, partly Baltimoreans, in search of
the prisoners released by the Mexicans,
•and landed 60 miles above, near Hujuetla -
Whore he was completely surrounded b'
t*Ove or fifteen hundred Mexicans;
'bdt after a desperate struggle he succee
ded in cutting his way through, and re
turned towards the river, where he was
posted, awaiting reinforcements. Col.
Gates despatched the Orleans back to
Vora Cruz, with a reqnisition upon Gov
ternor Wilson for four companies of
infantry, and at the same time sent 150
men up the river to the relief of Col. De
_ . .
'The Orleans arrived at Vera Cruz on
the 16th, and found the city in a state of
great excitement. Gen. Pearce had en
feumped ten miles from the city; when
scouts came in and reported a large
`force of the Mexicans at the National
kridge, marching towards Vera 'Cruz.—
gvery thing was got ready for the ex
pected attack, and the shipping was
removed from between the city andCas
+de.
Gen. Pearce came in, and mustering
'a reinforcement of 700 men, again
'marched out to meet the enemy. The
requisition of Colonel Gates could,
therefore, not be complied with, but 25
marines were put on board, and the Or
leans started for Tampico, where she
arrived on the li3th, where the captain
was informed that Col. De Russy's de
tachment had returned, and when near
Hujuetla, in a narrow defile, he had been
-again surrounded by the Mexican force
of twelve or fourteen hundred, who
commenced a heavy fire in all directions,
but fled through the chapparal after six
or eight rounds of grape. Col. De Rus
continued at intervals for several days
to fight his way back to the river, where
he was received by Col. Gates' reinforce
meats. His party reached Tampico on
the nightof the 16th, with a loss tiftwen
ty killed, ten wounded and two missing,
as well twenty horses and sixty pack
mules. Capt. Boyd and Lieut. Lanna
hill were killed. Several balls passed
through the clothes of Colonel Dc Rus
sy. Capt. Wyse had three horses shot
under him.
The Mexican loss is repotted nt 150.

Vera Cruz.
Lieut. Parker, of the Navy, died on
board the steamship Mississippi on the
12th.
Captain William Dufr died on the
16th.
The sun of Anahuac, of the 13th, says
that a private express from Puebla had
arrived, bringing intelligence that Gen
erals Cadwalader and Pillow had arrived
at Perote with the trains escorted by
them. They had been attacked at La
hoya, and completely routed the enemy,
with little loss to their troops. This
express left Puebla on the 3d. News
had been received there the day previ
ous that three commissioners had been
appointed to meet Mr. Trist at San Mar
tin Tesmalaucan on the Bth, (when he
leaves Puebla,) to learn through him 'the'
terms offered by the President.
A letter from the city of Mexico, da
ted the 2d, says that no doubts are en
tertained that the treaty will immediate

that the peace party is so strong that
Santa Anna will probably pronounce for
peace. The names of the commission

The German Lutheran Church ih
Philadeltibia, corner of Brown and St.
John's streets was struck by lightning on
Sunday afternoon last and destroyed.—
The cost of the structure was $20,000,
only $9,000 of which were covered by
insurance. The congregation had been
dismissed but fifteen minutes previous
to the catastrophe, and the sekton had
left the building only a moment before.
Had this not been the case, a melancho
ly loss of life might have ensued.
DEATH OF AN OFFICER.—The Louis
ville papers record the death of Capt.
A. R. Hetzel, U. S. A. which took place
in that city on the 20th inst. He had ar
rived at that' place but a few days pre
vious to his death from Vera Cruz,
where he had filled the office of assistent
quartermaster. He was a native of Har
risburg, and a graduate of West Point.
FOUND DEAD.-OD Friday last, a Mr,
Shade, lock-tender at Clark's ferry,
was found dead on the Clark's ferry
bridge. It is supposed, that while in
a state of intoxication, he climbed up to
the upper part of the bridge on to some
loose timbers to sleep, and while asleep
rolled off. His neck was found to be
dfslocated, and his hat upon the timbers
above.
re- At Lancaster on the 23d inst.,
Haggerty paid the penalty of the law
with his life, for the murder of the Ford
ney family. He Is said to have remained
perfectly calm and composed up to the
moment of execution, if not stoically in
different to his fate.
PITGLISTIC CONTEST.-A pitched fight
for 13500 aside, took place on the 20th
instant, about 25 miles from %% liming
ton, N. C. between two men from New
York, one of whom is called Reid, and
the other Barker. They had five rounds
and toeing the mark for the sixth, Ried's
shoulder was found to have been frac-
tured from a fall at the cloying of the
fifth round.
INSULTING COURT WITNESSES.--Among
the matters presented by the Philadel
phia grand jury of the July term, is that
of the unrestrained abuse of witnesses
by,members of the bar in Court. The
grand jury consider this license calcula
ted to abridge the dignity of the court
and to interfere with the proper course
of justice.
