From Mexico.
By this arrival nt !\fbhi1e Point yostcrday of
the British stamper Clydo, we hnve reccivod
files oT the. MWnflEor'Republican^ from the city
' Mexico, to (ho 13th inst., inclusive,
ijews from San Luis Potosl to the 6th inst.
I be«n received at the capital, announcing
that a portion of the National Guard of that
Siate, together with some troops belonging to
Tamnulipas, hud appeared before tho rates of
Cuidad Victoria, for the purpose of re-establish
ing the constituted authpjrities and maintaining
the law. ' *
The cholera was rdf&ging certain portions of
San Luis and Tamaulipas.
In Durango them had lately been an irrup
tion of the wild Indians, who had robbed un<l
murdered several of the inhabitants with im
punity.

tho. Monarchists and Snntunists, or

i'he projectors of thegront rail road between
Vera C*uz wnd the city of Mexico, and between
the latter and the port of Alcapulco, on tho
Pacific, have preseftted n It^fcmouf of the' coir-
dittons under which they will oxeente the
work to tho Minister of Finance. Gen. Almonte
is tho soul of tlie undertaking, as he is also of
the batik for aiding private enterprise.
From Washington.—-The Washington Cor
respondent of the Baltimore Sun in his letter ot
Inst, says*!.
Mr. Calhoun’s speech is in type, as I learn,
and a copy of it has been sent to Now York,
v, here it will appear to-morrow morning. Some
say th$t it is-well calculated to increase tlie ex-
citemont stf4he South. The speech presents
new aqd strong .views.
I have some additional reasons for thlhking
that the project of Sonator Bill will meet with
favor in the South, and with the Texas people.
Mr. Webster, I am sorry to learn, has aban
doned tlie idea of offering any project for a com
promise. Ho U»d framed a scheme which the
Sou)horn Senators approved of and which could
have been carried through. The time to offer

strong manifestation of opiniqpat tho North in
favor of Mr, Clay’s resolutions; and Mr. Hell’s
B roject has also pre-occupied the ground. The
nion meetings at tho North qre, fin' tife most
part, Clay meetings, and aro intended tobecon-
verted to political •purposes. They could
scarcely have been successful had they not
brought to their aid the personal and political
popularity of Mr. Clay. Should Mr. Webster
now offer to take the lend which the Southern
Senators, and the Western Democratic Se
nators wished him to do, lfe would he at once
placed in antagonism to Mr. Clay and Mr. Clny’s
friqpds on thifcsubject, us ho has been on many
Iters. If, under these circumstances, he yield-
ed an inch more to tho South than Mr. Clay
j| does, ho would be politically sacrificed at the
' North, though he might have succeeded here.

An Arrest—Some three weeks ago, Mi.
John L. Martin missed from hi* warehouse
four hales of cotton. The cotton had disap
peared at night—hut there was no evidence
that the store hnd been forrifily entered, and
Mr. M. was exceedingly puzzled to account for
the manner of its abstraction. In order to de
tect tho rogue, he pluced a private ir.ork upon
his hags. Yesterday morning be missed an
other bag, and be accordingly took measures to
find out its whereabouts. A search warrant
whs procured arid placed in tho hands of offi
cers Sheftai.l and Maxwell, with- instruc
tions to search the' ! premises cf Joseph W.
Phillips, who keeps a kind of warehouse in
whnt is known as “ tho Toombs,” near the Ex
change. There tho officers discovered a bale
of cotton belonging to Mr. Martin, with his
private marks on it, being the snn/e which he
had missed in tho morning. Phillips was
immediately arrested und held to bail, which,
failing to procure, he was committed to juil.—
His examination will take plnce this morning
at 10 o’clock, before Justico Raiford.

The Steamer Ocmuloee.—This steamer,
as she now lies, in the inland passage between
the St. Johns and St. Marys, with all her ma
chinery, tackle, &c., was sold yesterday.before
the Exchange, by Messrs. Cohen i£j Fosdick.
She brought four thousand dollars, and was
purchased by F. A. Tupper, Esq.
Mr. Calhoun.—It is stated in'tlie Balti
more paporsthat Mr. Calhoun is still very fee
ble, having had aslight relapse of his former ut-
tnck. Tho Newark Advertiser aliuding to his
speech which was delivered in the Senate on
Monday last says, it is probably intended to be
Mr. Calhoun’s greatest effort—like the dying
notes of tho swan, tho loudest and the best.
The Cholera.—From the acccoqiits wretch
reach us from the sputh-west wo have raason
to apprehend that this drondftil.scourg# is about
to te-visit us us it did In 1830, tho year
ufter its first appearance in this'country. A
telegruphic despatch dated Montgomery Ala.
March 2d. says—
”The cholera is increasing. At Taylor's
seven dcuths occurred within the ‘last fifty
hours, Sevep new cases were reported yester
day.’’
It is said to be prevailing to an alarming
degree among tba emigrants on the Mississip
pi. The Nutchez Courier describes it among a
party of sevenfumilies from Georgia. They star*
ted from Memphis in a stock boat. The chole
ra exhibited itself among them Ht Vicksburg
and within six days ten were dead from it. The
party consisted of forty-eight whitos nhd five
negroes.
Discord in Virginia.—At a late meeting
of the citizens of Loudon county, Va., cornic
ed of both political parties,-resolutions were
passed refusing to .send do'.eg.ue^ijto the Sciflth
era CotjVentieln. !Thu meefjng H&solvhd thajit
was opposed to the Wiftno^;Pr»i$3o, $nd alpo
to' tho -Abolition ’Af SlaVt-ry in tho District
of Columbia, hut held thnt tho pcoplo of Cal
ifornia have aright to dOlermino tho slavery
question,so fur nsthqy urn coiicqriio$I,.fyr them
selves. The.prcss in this section of Virginia,
ljas^fffra long time indicated a (one of feeling
not altogether loyal to tho South, and difficul-
ies hnveon several net:omens arisen among the
citizen3, growing out of the promulgation of ab
olition sentiments, from the pulpit and t.trough
the press, in Accomac and tho adjoinfng dis
tricts of Virginia and Marylund.
It is to be regretted that such divisions should
occur at a time like tho present, when tho
northern public are so likely to construe any
thing like discord among us into an cviuonc^ ot
a want of unanimity of sentiment on the sub
ject of controversy bolween the two sections of
the Union. Tho opposition of one or more
counties in the west of Virginia will not pre
vent, though it may embarrass the action of
that State. Since :ne Nashville Convention has
been determined on by so large a majority of the
people of the Southern States, it becomes the
friends of.the South a M d of the Union, to pro
mote its harmony, ar.d to give it the benefit of
their best counsels.
The holding of the Convention is unimportant
compared with what may ha its action. Let
those who feel that there is no necessity for re
sistance on tho par* of the South, but who can
not prevent the holding of the proposed Con-
vention,avoid everything like a seeming opposi
tion to it, and when the proper time comes for
action they will ho in a position to influence its
deliberations, and, by their wise and patriotic
counsels, to prevent tho evil which they appre
hend from its convocation.
No one can he more devotedly attached to
the Union, nr would deprecate more any
measure calculated to endanger its permanen
cy, than ourself; nevertheless it is onr settled
conviction that, in the present crisis, the safdty
of the South and the Union, rests mainly on the
unanimity, moderation and unflinphipg firmness
of tho people of the slave States.

been bought of our southern lines to be remov

from scurvy and bronchitis, produced by a long

If ho had died at the letter place, tlie intelli

Terrible Storm and Loss of Life in Austria.
Alotter from Vionna, dated Jan. 30. says: “A
sad accident happened in tlie neighborhood of
Wuselburg seme days since. About 108 urtil-
lery men received orders to march from Nick-
olsdorf to Parendorf. Wiieij, on the roud
which leads across a great heath, they were
surprised by such a terrific, snow storm that they
soon completely last tiieir way, and many of
thdta were frozen to death. A few, after suffer
ing inexpressibly, managed to reach some of
the neighboring villages, and scut out the prsts-
nntry in search of their unfortunate comrades ;
but alas 1 tho twenty or twenty-five first found,
among whom was the captain of the company,
were already deud. Tho latter was on his
knees. Tha rost have since been brought in
either dead or so frozen that there is bat little
hope of their recovery.”
A New Rumor.—The Washington corres
pondent of the New York Daily Advertiser,
speaking of the Southern question, says:
Rumor says that English influence is secret
ly ot work in this matter. America is the great

the world. Whut ehe cannot do bv open jjnd
fair competition, therefore, ghe will bo sure to

who is now located at El Paso, writes under
date of .Jan 15:—
The preside of Eleasario is a small place
built up around very extensive barracks, ami
partly in ruins, formerly occupied by Ameri
can trobps. Here aro quartered two compv
tries of the 3d Infantry. Another oompany i»
posted some twenty miles above, oppesito the
town of El Paso. This and the neighboring
villages ol Socorro ond Islcta, contain some 1800
or 2000 inhabitants.
Of the Valley of El.Paso, it would be n tame
expression to cull it lovely or pretty. Imagine
it a Gu den of Eden, and you will not he far
wrong, though I would not pretend to say its
occupants display the industry aad taste of ou*
first parents in adorning and dressing it. The
soil is exceedingly fertile and in the hands of
Y’ankcos would blossom as the roet and produce
abundantly. But these people are too lazy to
do nny thing but raise a little corn a few peas
and “propagate.” Around every ‘'Jacob" you
may count at least a dozen children.
