An extra from the office of the St. Louis Re nublican of the 6th inst. contains the following intelligence from Santa Fe : Another Battle with Mexicans and Indians—Two Americans killed and three wounded—Loss of Government Cattle —Arrival of Col. Russell from California. We conversed this morning with Mr. Mur phy, an intelligent gentleman just from Santa Fe. He left on the 29th of May, and furnishes ns with details of very interesting occurrences in New Mexico. On the 27th of May an engagement took place at the Red River canon. 150 miles south east of Santa Fe, between a detachment of about 175 men, under Major Edmondson, and a band of Mexicans and Apache Indians, sup posed to number 400 men. These men were combined together for the purpose of commit ting depredations on American property, and a few days previous had succeeded in stealing 150 horses from traders and others. Maj. Edmondson had been ordered out for the purpose of routing them. At the place in dicated he came upon the enemy rather sudden ly, and not very advantageously. He was crossing a slough at the mouth of the canon, which was very miry, and many of his horses being in a weak condition, he was forced to abandon them. The engagement commenced on foot, and lasted for some two hours. It was not known how many of the enemy were killed : two Americans were killed, and a third was wounded and reluctantly left on the ground when the retreat was ordered. Lt. Elliott, in command of 27 men, principally Laclede Rangers, rendered very efficient ser vice at this juncture. He occupied a point of rocks, and kept the enemy from advancing upon the retreating forces, until they had got out of a dilficult position. He had two men wounded, M. Wash and J. Eldridge but not dangerously. All the horses were shot down or captured. On the 2d of June, Lt. Col. Willock, with 115 men. was met on his march from Taos, in pursuit of the Mexican and Indian forces. He had got upon their trail, and was resolved upon an engagement with them. We are sorry to hear that a garrison of only fifteen soldiers were left at Taos, all of whom were on the sick list. Col. Price was at Santa Fe. with portions of several companies of volunteers. Os his movements and plans we know nothing. Mr. Murphy met Mr. We the red, some other traders and two Government trains of wagons at the crossing of the Pawnee Fork. They had been detained there for three or four days by a freshet in the river, which prevented them from fording it. At this point the Indians an noyed them very much, and succeeded in kill ing a hundred and fifty head of cattle belonging to the Government train (under charge of Capt. Belt, wagon master) and Mr. Goodrich, of this city, also lost 27 animals in the same way. The cattle were all speared and their tails cut off close, to be used as trophies of victory. A Mr. Smith, of Platte county, who was on guard at the time, received seven spear wounds, one of which struck him in the throat, hut it was the opinion of the physician who was along, that hr would recover. About this time, or shortly after, this party, who were travelling the River road, heard the discharge of cannon on the Ridge road, and as a train of Government wagons, having a piece of artillery with them, were on that route, it is supposed that an attack had been made upon them by the Indians. Lieut. Love’s command of dragoons, with the money for the pay of the troops at Santa Fe, was met a few hours travel from the Pawnee Fork, going on well. Col. Wm. H. Russell, Secretary of the Ter ritory of California, came in with Mr. Murphy, and is the bearer of despatches from Col. Fre mont for the Government at Washington. Col. R., we learn, stopped at his residence in Calloway county, to see his family. He may be looked for in this city in a day or two, and we then expect a full account of operations in California. Mr. Murphy heard nothing of the news brought to Westport by the “ Delaware In dian,” some days ago, of the attack upon a train of Government wagons, and the killing ol some fifty teamsters and others, near the VVal nut Creek. It is, therefore, presumed to be totally unfounded. Independence, July 2, 1847. This morning Col Russell, Secretary of the Territory of California, arrived at this place with a party of eighteen men. He stales tha the Indians are growing worse upon the plains and he had three fights with them during hi march. It is expected that the companies and wagoi trains now going out will be attacked, as th Indians are said to be collecting together so the purpose of committing depredations on th trains. Ra.ii. Roao Accident.—A collision tool place on the 13th inst., by two freight engine with their trains, onthe Georgia Road near th Oconee bridge. This was occasioned princi pally by their being on a curve, so that th engineers could not see each other’s trains ti they were too near to be effectually stopped.- The hands escaped by jumping off. The tw engines and tenders were nearly ruined ; ti freight cars were much injured, slipping fro their trucks and scattering their contents abo 00 the ground. —Atlanta Luminary. Special Notices.

Profuse are the expressions of grate ful admiration that have been lavished bv groaning sufferers upon this preparation. This is an excellent article, and will cure the most violent toothache or pain in the gums in one minute. It is not unpleasant to the I taste, will not injure the teeth, and effects a permanent cure. So well and faithfully has the Clove Anodyne ' performed all that has been claimed for it, many at tempts have been made to imitate it, and many worth less compounds are offered under the name of Clove Anodyne. Purchasers must be sure and ask for Johnson’s Toothache Drops, and observe that the name of Henry Johnson is on the wrapper of every genuine vial. Price 25 cents.

Rowe, one bottle ot the Balsam of Wild Cherry, which relieved me very much. I have continued to use the same, as the disease returns upon me, and find it always relieves when nothing else will; and, farth er, I have no doubt, could I have had the Wild Cher ry in the first stages of the disease, but that it would have entirely cured me. I can confidently recom mend it as a very valuable medicine for all lung com plaints. Benjamin Robinson. None genuine unless signed I. Butts, on the wrap per.

NEW 4 ORK, July 15, 6 P- M. —There contin ues to be an improved feelirag in Breadstull's with a good demand. The sales to-day of Flour are to the extent of about 9000 barrels, at prices ranging from $5.62 to $5.75 for Michigan and Ohio, and $6.06 a $5.12£ for Genesee. There has also been considerable sales of Wheat at 110 a 112 cts. fiir red, and 118 a 127 cts. for mixed. There was also a sale of 3000 bushels prime white Genesee at 140 cts. per bushel. The demand for Corn is also good, and the prices firm. About 40,000 bushels have been sold to-day at 62 a 64 cts. for mixed, 65 for round mixed, 63 for flat yellow, and 68 a 70 for round yellow. There is some inquiry to-day for Cotton. Sales to a moderate extent—prices remain unchanged. Our merchants are now looking anxiously for the Britannia’s news. Shelias had favorable winds, and a short trip is anticipated. Exchange.—There has been quite a heavy business transacted in foreign bills for transmission by the Caledonia. The supply of sterling bills is large, and has rather pressed upon the market, causing some lit tle decline in the rates towards the close. Continen tal bills are firmer, and there is no change in the rates. We quote bills on London 106 and 1061; on : Paris sf. 31f ass 30. f , CHARLESTON, July 17. — Cotton —We stated in our report of the 10th inst., that the transactions in I Cotton for several days, prior to this date, although on quite a limited scale, had been made at the prices I prevailing previous to the receipt of the advices per the Caledonia. During the first three days of the present week between 7 and 800 bales changed hands; and when we closed our report on Tuesday last, prepara- tory to the publication of our semi-weekly report, there was no perceptible change in prices ; on Wed i nesday, however, near 800 bales were sold, and pur i chasers obtained a decided advantage on all classifica s tions below fair and fully fair. Within the last two i days some 450 bales have been sold, at somewhat un ; settled rates. In the present position of affairs, it is j impossible to give quotations for most qualities with any degree of accuracy, but the fair and fully fair sorts sustain the quotations of the preceding week, " viz: Ilf al2 cents. The actual transactions since » our last embrace 1930 bales, at the following prices ; i 11 bales stained at 94 ;28 at 10* ; 279 at 10J ; 367 at lOf ; 32 at 10|; lOOallOf; 100 at, 11 ; 228 all If ; - 367 at Ilf; 144 at 114 ;64 at Ilf ; 162 at Ilf, and , 59 bales at 12c.

In the putting forth of the above Schedule, we have been guided aud admonished by the knowledge we have of v/hat other Lines have already suffered in giving the Traveller false information respecting their Schedule time, and have, to the best of our knowledge and belief made an average time of the arrival and departure between Charleston and Baltimore, by the Bay Route, for the last two months, during which pe *i~‘* “T ' Ho to arrive at Baltimore in time to take the Morning Train for Philadelphia and the several Routes going North, South, East and West. The Bay Company have been in existence upward of Twenty Years, and through this long period, their Boats, built expressly for the route, have successfully run without loss of Life or Property—this fact alone should, and wc believe will, be satisfactory to the Travelling Public, that the Chesapeake Bay Route is one of the safest in the whole Union. We were prepared and fully expected to meet with strong opposition from the Monopoly Line, but had hoped that the warfare would have been conducted in a business like and honorable way, and that their Cards would have contained none of that misrepre sentation and false inuendoes with which they are fill ed against the Bay Line. However, we care not, knowing that we have the cheapest and most pleasant route ; pledging ourselves to convey the travelling public by our schedule, we are willing to abide the issue and leave the result to their choice.
