Extract of a letter from nn officer in tho army to his friend in Washington, dated City of Mexico, Sept. 21,1S17. I promised to write to you occasionally, and havo just two reasons for not complying—first, no time since our arrival at Vera Cruz, aud, second, on almost perfect certainty that the guerrillas would get my letters if I did write. I now write a few words, to assure you that I am alive, and retain the same regard for you that I havo cher ished for twenty years. Yon are quite aware that no two appointments were more illiberally denounced than those of Maj. Gen. Pillow and Brig. Gen. Shields. I have had die amplest opportunities of observAing the conduct of both for several hundred miles of a most trying march, and in the battles of Contre ras, ChurubuscQ, San Antonio, Molino del Rey, Chapultcpcc, San Cosmo, and Tacnbaya. At a most critical moment, at Chapultcpcc, General Scott sent word to the gallant Pillow, command ing the party storming die almost impregnable for tress of Chapiiilepcc, Umt all was lost if thoy fail ed. “Tell General Scott that the men under my command shall carry it, or I will be loft dead on the field.” He was dion badly wouuded, and giv ing his orders os he lay on die field. The preju dices of die enemies of the President, and, what is worse and most incurable, the prejudices cf the old army, have given way before the brilliant and successful conduct of Generals Pillow and Shields. Congress meets soon. I pray you to use your influence to cause tho speedy enactment of a strin gent law against the maltreatment of wagoners and soldiers by the officers of die army. * »••«»« f or exain p| 0f thinks nothing of giving the first fifty lashes, and of clubbing, gag ging, Ac., the latter.

A gentleman with a villai nous segar; a lady with a screaming “ responsi bility an urchin with a muddy pair of shoes, and at night a head. that nods and bobs about without any regard to the invasion of personal rights, arc all disagreeable neighbours in a Stage- Coach. know of no pleasurable change iu tho motions of this Imrburous conveyance. If it drags slowly through the sand, one is tantalized almost to ex haustion by the tedious monotony of sound and of movement; if it dashes rapidly down a hill, ono feels squeamish about the neck, thinks about broken collar bones, and conversation immediate ly turns upon capsizing, ruu-a-woys, etc. etc.— Ifyou are sleepy, and give yourself up for a mo ment to old Morpheus, bob goes your head against somo infamous wood-work or iron-work, and you have a knot on your cranium os big os a pigeon’s egg. If your neighbor should chance to broach politics, and you wax warm in the dis cussion, just as you arc about to prove, by an ir resistible climax of argument, that “the march to tho Rio Grande” did not produce the war, slain- bang goos the coach over a rocky hill, or a mis called Rail-way over a swamp, and your elo- queuce is lost in tho screams of tho baby, and the hysterical oxclamatiou of its frightened moth- And then comes the foudling of the husband aud the father, perfectly hideous to behold, unless it is indulged in by the first person of the singular number towards his own better half, and his own especial bantling. Politics are knocked out of your head ! and you settle down again into a state of silent misery', and feel as ifyou were rid ing through an earthly purgatory. However, all things have an end; and . here wo are at last, at the dawn of day, rattling across the Chattahoochee upon a covered bridge. Beauti ful stream ! whether it meanders through the sweet vale of Naucoochce, washing the feet of Mount Yonnh, or thunders over the grey rocks near Columbus, or rolls hero deep and dark, without a murmur, overflowing tho soul with ‘the beauty of its stillness.” About this time eight years ago, I crossed the same river, over tho same bridge, and entered a country which had not very long been abandoned by the Creek In dians, and which still retained many traces of its old masters. Now how deplorably changed!— The forests then covered the greater portion of the earth; tall, old trees which had been standing for centuries in tho woods; all beneath open ns fur as tho oye could see, fertile Indian custom of burning the dry loaves in the Autumn, had pre vented the under-growth from springnig up.Thoso forestshave fallen beneath the axe, and the hunt ing ground of tho Warrior is now the snowy cotton field of the raoney-mukiug planter. I had seen but few more beautiful regions of country than that inhabited by the Creeks on the banks of the Chattahoochee, and I was not unprepared to hoar that some of that race had been most re luctant to bid it adieu. Rumor said, at tho time, that nn old chieftain had refused to accompany the departing tribe, aud that he had been slain by his friends in n species of savage mercy. A skull dug up from a cubiu floor (where these Iudiaus were in the habit of burying their dead) aud which had been cleft through by the blow of a toma hawk, seemed to confirm the truth of the story. The following Hues are suggested by it. When from the fuir ami fertile lands That on the Chattahoochee lie, The CiO'iks preparer’, with weakened bands, To move towards tho western sky, A white-haired chieftain, loved and feared, As children love and fear their sire, Spoke in their councils,—every word Fell on their souls like liquid fire. Go! sock ho said, tho western woods, New hunting-grounds uud burial place, Revivo among those solitudes Tho broken spirit of our race; Your sons to sterner manhood train Than that which graced their humbled sires, That they surrender not again, Iu slmme, their homes and council fires.

But recollect, the lute of birth Alone may change their natal skies; The aged tree, torn from the earth, Takes root no more, but droops aud dies!

Ye love the living—I the dead, And I prefer their shameless sleep; I think of them, and drop iny head, And scarcely am too proud to weep, For I have lived before the sun Of glory covered up his face, And all I prized of life was gono, When life itself became disgrace. But go! the westernskie3 ore clear, And fish are plenteous in the floods, And herds of buffalo and deer Roam thro’ the dark and pathless woods; Porclianco ye’ll find a home as fuir As that which tempts the white mau’s eye, Yet, when you love it most—beware!

Soon after Mr. Shunk entered the room, and was received amid enthusiastic cheering. These two distinguished gentlemen spent an hour or more with their friends, and retired. During the eutire evening, the large room was crowded with persons retir ing and others retiring. The street in front of tho house, was also filled.

(From tho Wo*hiugton Union, 23d in*L] Letter from Gen. Shields. MEXICO, Sept 27,18-17. To the Editor of the Union: Dear Sin: I hope you will permit me to nvnil myself of your columns to notice an article,which first appeared in tho New York Herald,and after wards obtained circulation inother papers through out the Union, reflecting severly upon tho medi- cnl department of tho army, and referring to tho treatment of my first wound as ail instance of the iguorance ofthe surgeons of that department.— The following is tho article to which 1 allude t “Jinny members of tho medical department of tho army are lamentably deficient in skill and ex perience. In proof of this, I would point to the fact that the surgeons in attendaucc on Gen. Shields did not discover tho extent of his injuries for a month after he received his wounds, being for all that time ignorant that two of his ribs were injured. Gen. Butler will, in all probability, be lame for life, through either the ignorance or tiie neglect of tho surgeon who dressed his wound.— Many other instances of a like nature are within my knowledge.” I regard it ns an net ofsimplo justice to at tempt to rescue tiie character ol the surgeons who attended me, in my time of trial und suffering, from the imputations contained in this article. 1 received tiie wound to which allusion is made on the 18th of April, at Corro Gordo, while assault ing a battery of five guns, with a portion of my commaud in front—another portion of my command having attacked it at thesame time, pur suant to my orders, on tiie flank. The wound was made by a leaden or iron grope nearly three times the.size of a musket-ball. It eutered my right broast, just tinder the uipple, and passed out of my hack within about half nn inch of the spine. From tiie spot where I fell I was carried on tiie arms of soldiers (under the direction of my aids, Lieuts. Hammond and Davis) about two miles to the gen eral hospital. During the whole of thu route my course might be tracked by tiie blood which streamed out of the wound. The agony I suffer ed was so intolerable that I longed for death, uud often requested to be stretched on some green spot where I might breathe my last within near ing of tiie victorious shouts of my troops. My aids remonstrated with me on this, und had mu borne onwards to die hospital. Here my wound was dressed, aud the blood staunched by Dr. Wright, of the regular army, nud Dr. McMillan, then at tached to one of my regiment* as acting surgeon. From the hospital I was again home on a litter the «aino day about two millo* and a half to a little hut on the Julapa road. Here I was attended for several days by Dr. McMillan—every one expect ing that every hour would he my last. From this f -laco I was borne iu a few days on a litter to Ja- ipa, where I remained until luy recovery. I was attended during thef whole of my illness hv Dr. McMillan, who exhibited during tint time not on ly the most consumate skill as a surgeon, but such care, assiduity, and devotion, a* to endear him to me for life. I must not omit to mention that Dr. VnnderHnden, Surgeon-General of the Mexican army, (who had been made prisoner by my coiuinad) rendered efficient aid to Dr. McMil lan during a portion of this time. The broken ribs to which allusion is made in the article were not only known to the surgeons ivho attended me. but to myself, tho moment I was striped and ex amined; hut this was considered so trifling a mut ter,compared with the terrible nature of my wound, that it excited but little uneasiness and attention. It bocomes me to say here—what l sincerely feel— that my recovery has been providential; medical skill aud surgical talent could do but little for such a terrible wound. I understand there is no in stance recorded of such a recovery. I attribute, therefore, with a grateful heart, my preservation aud recovery to God alone*, but next to God, my gratitude is due, and iny recovery attributable, to the skill and devotion of my attending surgeon, Dr. McMillan, recently. I am happy to say, per manently appointed. But I will go farther uud assert that the medical department ofthe regular army will compare, in professional skill nml in telligence, with that of any other medical body of equal sizo the world. Some of tiie more re- centappointments 1 know also to bo excellent; but there are doubtless some who are confessedly deficient iu all the attributes of surgical skill anil experience. This could scarcely be avoided un der the circumstances; and considering the hur ried manner iu which tiie appointments Imd to be made. I regret to say that I aui again suffering under the ullliction of another wound, received at tiie storming of Chnpultepec. Tho wound is from n musket ball, received in the left arm, whichhos occasioned mo much pain, but my sur geons assure me the arm is sufe. So entire has been my recovery from the effects of the for mer wound, that at Puebla I assumed command of a brigade, consisting of tho New York nml South Carolina volunteers, und the marine corps, under Lieut. Col. Watson. We marched from Puubln nml entered the valley of Mexico with an armv amounting iu all to ten thousand two hun dred men. Our inarch was one of extreme dif ficulty—over roads broken up nml filled with rocks. We reached San Augustin on the 18th of August,, from whence we could see the en emy’s troops and work* at Contreras.— <Ju the 19th I led two regiments—the New Yorker.* nml Palmettos—across a route that was deemed impassable by Mexican* for everything l»ul goats; joined the other forces in the night; re mained most of tiie night without shelter or cover ing, under incessant raiii; nml joined in the attack in the morning which carried the position, and cut Valencia’s whole force to pieces. .Ml this I encountered without suffering nnyinjury from the effects of my former wound. From Contreras I joined ill pursuit of the enemy towards Mexico. We came up with tho main ho-.ly of his army at Churubusco. The enemy’s force was about thir ty thousand. Tho position was most formidable. The fortifications were not only exceedingly strong, but their infantry was posted trader cover of em bankment*, which afforded them such protection us to enable them to lire on us with security. The battle at this place was not only a bloody but a terrible one. The .Mexicans determined to make it their last great struggle, and the Ameri can.* fought with desperation; knowing that noth ing was left for them but success. llere I lost o ver half my command in killed ami jvounded. Some of the noblest officers and bravest men that ever marched to buttle fell on that bloody field. Yet we routed the whole Mexican array, and drove it, panic-struck into tiie city; and had I, who happeimed to be in the advance, only been permitted to continue the jiurstiit into the city, I doubt not, from what wo have since hoard of their fright, that they would have run through tho city, uud sought shelter in the moun tains. Peace however being tiie great ob ject, it was hoped that tiie moment was favorable for that purpose. Santa Anna, however, whose whole being is a composition of falsehood and treachery, employed the time in preparation for defence, and imposed upon us the further neces sity of carrying Chupultepec and taking the city. This was all done, too, in the most glorious man ner. The whole American force on the ground, exclusive of killed and wounded, when .Mexico was taken, was less than 8,000; the whole force employed was little more than 6,000. So, my dear friend, you may tell tho world that an army of between 0,000 uud 7,000 American* has taken the city of Mexico, strongly fortified, with an ar my of between twenty uud thirty thousand men within its walls. True, we have suffered, uud suf fered aoverely. Many a noble spirit ha* breath ed his last in the valley of Mexico; but the glori ous result* have proved to the world the invinci bility of the American arms. I have been thus diffusive, to show that my recovery has been test ed by every specie* of trial and endurance to which tho human system can be subjected. It is a hard case therefore, that the physicians who con tributed so much to tiiis recovery should be ac cused of incapacity, aud that my recovery ill itself so wonderful, should bo vouched a* nil instance to provo this incapacity. I trust those journal* that gave place, inconsiderately, to the article to which 1 allude, will do me the favor, in justice to my physiciau mid tiie medical department of the army, to insert this letter. I have thehouor to be your friend and obedi ent servant, JAMES SHIELDS. was ono of the most violent which has occurred in our city for many years.

Ono ofthe parties name John Bond, rending, m Richmond st, received . hall in the left: hi ng. He Was taken home, ant Dr. Baxley, with other physicians, called in, but owing to the nature of the wound they cOuld do little, and the^man expired this morning in Conse quence of iuward hemorrhage. Several others are also roported to have been slightly wounded. Timothy Costello, an adherent of tho New Market, received a very severe wound from aflyingbrick. The police were on the ground, and aided by somo members ofthe Fire Department, did all iu their power to stop the riot. Two of tho officers, Messrs. League and Gross were struck by the fly? in» missiles nud injured; Mr. Gross quite severely. The following arrest* were made by tiie police, John Petera, Georgo Showacre, Edward Salis bury, L. O. Willis, llobt Elliott, Lewis Diffen- dalc, Wm. Miller, John Cammerons,John Dykes, Joseph Eaglcston, John Matthews, George Phil lips, Edward Lucens, and Martin Ilgenfrttz, all of whom were fined for throwing stones and also sent to court on the charge of rioting. Tho parties charged with a participation in the riot were brought before the court this morning and the following named person* convicted, Ed ward Salisbury, John Petera, Lewis Diffetidale, Wm. Miller, John Cnuimerous, John Dykes, and Joseph Eagleston.—Each of the parties convicted were sentenced to one month’s imprisonment, to pay a line of $20 with costs, and to give Becurit for their good behavior. In passing the sentences Judge Brice remarked thut it was the intention of the court to do all in their power to put an end to these disgraceful riots and, that each tune that parties were convicted be fore the Court of being concerned in them, the former punishment will be doubled. The other parties, whose arrest by the Polico is mentioned above, have demanded jury trial*, and their cases will therefore have to go over to the noxt term of tiie court, in order that indictments maybe found against them by the Grand Jury.— Baltimore Patriot, 23d inst.

As every man iu the Uuiou i* interested in se curing a proper arrangement ofthe Telegraphic System, and as Public and Private Right* are as sailed by the monopolizing pretension* of Messri. F. O. J. Smith and Amos Kendall, controllers of -Morse’s Patent, it is now become a nutter of gen eral importance to ascertain whether those per sonages ran really monopolize and control tho whole business of Telegraphing in the United States. With the purpose of bringing their arro gant pretensions to the test ofhtw nnd justice. 1 challenged them to put their threats iuto exe cution, IF THEY dare, by instituting such legal proceedings ns would effectually show to the American people which patent (Morse’s or mine) was most or least valid, and which ofthe inven tions (his or mine) was the most valuable for ac curacy and safety, a* well as expeditious iu transacting Telegraphic business. Mr. F. 0. J. Smith and Mr. Amos Kendall have visitod Cincinnati, threatening summary “prose cution*,” for alleged “infringement of Morse’* Patent.” My Letter Printing Telegraph “was worked successfully to show its power, oil the long lino*” between Pittsburg und Cincinnati, and Cincinnati nnd Louisville—thus falsifying their assertions and defying their threats. I addressed them a private letter, and after wards challenged them publicly to commence prosecution njninst me, that the American People could thus officially determine whether they or I were right or wrong. fST But Messrs. F. O. J. Smith nnd Kendall, after ail their calumnies uud tiireuts of prosecution, instead of promptly bringing tho matter before the tribunals of the U. States—SHRUNK FROM THE CONFLICT which they had denounced against me—NOT DARING to encounter that THOROUGH SCRUTINY which their MO NOPOLIZING PRETENSIONS would meet in the COURTS ofthe UNITED STATES. Under these circumstances, I now no longer delay my return to the citv of New York, to fur nish the “LIGHTNLVG LETTER PRIN TERS” required for use on the new Telegraph line now costriicting by the “New Jersey Tele, graph Company” between Philadelphia aud New York—at either or both of which cities, I will al ways be ready to test the question, in legal form, “whether Morse’s Patent or my Patent is MOST or LEAST VALID; atul whether -Messrs. F. O. J. Smith and Kendall (controllers of Morse’s Pa tent) have an exclusive monopoly of the Tele graph system in the United States.” X* for tiie calumnies published by a Ken tucky paper since .Mr. Kendall’s visit to that re gion, tho best refutation of them is, that, so far from the experiments with iny Instruments prov ing “unsatisfactory” on the lino when tried be tween Pittsburgh nnd Cincinnati, nud Cincinnati und Louisville, the constructor of that line (Mr. O'Reilly) has ordered a large supply to he ready for use either independently, or in connection with other instruments, on the lines which lie ha* already or inay hereafter construct, ill completing tho “Atlantic, Lake and .Mississippi Telegraph;” and the only reason why the two ♦ Letter Printers’ made for Mr. O’Reilly are now “boxed up” for New York, is because he has consented to let them ho used far models in constructing others with greater expedition thnn could he done from mere drawings of tho machinery—Mr. O'Reilly having a!>o consented that these models should be used for working the New Jersey Company’s Telegraph Line in case other instruments cannot be constructed in season—as requested from Mr. O’Reilly by that Company. As allusions have been made to the English Patent, gristed for my Letter-Printing Tele- grnp has an original ixyextiox, when Morse’s Telegraph was refused an English Patent for its want of originality, it is proner for me to men tion that mv partner* (beside Mr. Ballard) in the British Patent are ABRAHAM BKLL& SON, of New York, one ofthe oldest and most respect ed commercial houses in America; at whose ex pense and trouble, or nt the expense of persons with whom they made arrangements, Patents were secured for my invention, not only in Great Britain and her Colonies, but in various oilier countries of Europe. My assailants, NOT DAR ING to submit their pretension* and their calum nies to the ordeal of the UNITED STATES COURT, are welcome to all tho capital they can now manufacture from their falsehoods about my nationality, as well a* about the Letter-Printing Telegraph—which Telegraph, whatever its other characteristics may be, has one important merit, in uiding (with other inventions) to render tho AMERICAN PEOPLE INDEPENDENT of tiie MONOPOLIZING OPERATIONS of Messrs. F. O. J. Smith and Kendall in the busi ness of Telegraphing. ROYAL E. HOUSE.

Our last roport left the market very unsettled, with light sales, consequent upon the European news of the 19th.ult.—middling cottons were quo led 9jc. For the week now under review the transactions havo been somewhat extended, bill the business is still light, in view of tho stock on hand. Some 1900 hales have found purchasers at a further reduction of fully jc. on die current rates at the close of last week. The purchases have been nearly equally divided betweon Eng lish and Continental buyer.*; a few small lot* only having been taken for tiie northern ports. The market has assumed a steadier and more regular tone—and although some holders still refuse tiie present prices, generally they are more disposed to meet buyers. Wo are again unable to give our full scale of quotations, which as before re marked, are fully 4c under the prevailing rates of last week.

A sale of 150 bids. Howard street was made in the morning at 6,50, and on ’change the market closed with more sellers than buyers at these figures. The former are asking a concession.
