G, 1847. ) To his Fredhney dev. Win Arid Scott, Commands in-Chi sos the Army of tke United State*: Sir-lU- th • note of your Excellency under thi?- cJ if •. 1 learn with surprise, that you consider that th ivil and inilitarv niithnrities of Mexico have vi -feted articles 7, 12. and 3 of the armistice whic h I r ■ .elude 1 with your Excellency on the24th day of list mouth. .• Tli - civil .a 1 military authorities of Mexico have not obstructed the oass.ige of provisions for the American army ; and if at times their transmission has been retarded, it has been owing to the impru dence of the American agents, who, without having a previous understanding with the proner authori ties. gave occasion for popular outbreaks, which if has cost tin- Mexican government much trouble t-. repress. Last night awl the night before the es corts for the provision train were ready to start, and wereonlv detained because Mr. Hargous, tin agent, desired it- The orders given to susoeud tin intercourse between the t wo armies were addressed to private individuals, and not to the agents of tin arm ,r of the United State's, and were intended pu*- pose b’ to expedite tin* transmission oi’provisions t the army, and to confine Ihe iniercourse to th.. object exclusively. In return for this conduct your Excellency has prevented the owners or man agers of the grain mills in the vicinity of the city Iran famishing any flour to the city, which is u true breach of the good faith your Excellency had pledged me. It is false that any new work or fortification has been undertaken, because one or two repairs have only served to place them in the san • condition they were in on the day that the armistice was en tered inf.-, accident or the convenience of the mo ment having caused the destruction of the then ex fa’’ works. Vou have had early notice of the es tald. liiiient of the battery covered w ith the mud walls < I the house of Garev, in this city, and did m -n must rate, because the peace of two great K bes could not be made to depend upon things g : >* a lu-mselves, hut of little value compared &• the result in whi h all the friends of humanity and of file prosperity of the American continent tako so great an interest. It is not without great grief and even indigna tion that 1 have received communications from the cifi< > and villages occupied by the army of your Excellency, in relation to the violation of the tern pis i ousecruted to the worship of God; to the phi.tdcrof the sacred vases, and to the profanation of the iuit.g. s venerated by tin- Mexican people. Pn>t\>uuUy have 1 been affected by the complaints of fathers uml hiishauds, of the violence offered t > their daughters and wives; and these same cities villa yes have been sucked not only iu violation oi the armistice, but of the sacred principles pro churned and respei ted by ci* ilized nations. 1 have observed siiei.ee to tlie pieseut moment, in oruer uottoobs rod the pi ogress of negotiations which h Id out the hope oi ‘ei in Mating a scandalous war, and one which your Ex. lh-ncy has characterised so justly as uuuatural. but i shall iiesist ottering apologies because I eunuot be blind to the truth tli ii the cause of th** threat* of reue wing hostilitie*. continued iu the note of your Excellency, is that l huv e not bt*eii w illing to sign u treaty whii li would I lessen consid* mbly the territory ol the Republic, and not onl . the territory of ihe Republic, but lliat dignity and integrity w liu h all nations defend to tli last extremity. And if thene,considerations have not the same weight in the mind of your Ex cellency, the responsibility before the world, who cun easily distinguish ou w hose side is moderation and justice, will fall upon you. 1 Hatter myself ih it your Excellency w ill be con vinced, on calm reflection, of the weight of my reasons. But, if my misfortune, you should seek only a pretext to depi lve the first city of the Ainer !cau continent of an opportunity to free the un armed popnlut.ou of he horrors of war, there will h'* left me no other means of salvation, but to repel force by l.uce, with the decisiou and energy which m. high obligations impose upou me. 1 have the honor to lie, your excellency’s humble servant.

The following is un extract of a letter iiom Julupa.in tin- Area Iris. The Picayune gives it without vouch j mg lor its correctness; j “ When Gen. Fare/ abandoned the .Mill del Key, a I hoiub discharged front Chaputicpec, tell among the ain i munition wagons of the enemy, in the yard ol the Mill, j causing icurol them toexphHie,by which 300 Amcri cans are said to have been blown up, (ouiuron,) includ ing Gen. Worth, who, according io oi • account, liau not been seen or heard ol in** iu*xi day at Tucubaya.” Another letter in the Jim, dated at Mexico on the lOih says: “ I he Government has taken $300,000 which were being sent by a commercial house to the camp of tlie enemy. “ Gen Smith lias expired, and by the enclosed slip you will see that the Americans mutilated uud cruelly | aanssinated in* unkntunate Iriab who wort taken at die battle ol Churubusco.” Another account slates that the deserters belonging to ill*- Le gion of St Patrick, alluded to above, were- all hung at San Angell on the 11th. \S e again copy iroin th** Picayune: This brings us to tlie 12th, but at what hour of the day the letter was closed we are not intormed Os th** eventful denuumeut we have only a brief account, but sufficient to assure us that our arms have achieved it brilliant triumph, and that our army is“ revelling iu the halls of the Alontezimias.” The only reliable account we have of the last struggle before the capital is in u letter addressed to Mr Dunond.our Collector at Vera Cruz, from Orizaba, which will be found below. Our correspondent at Vera Cruz vouches for its accuracy. and we have reason to believe it is from the same source as was the letter giving the first and a correct ac count ol the buttles of Contreras and Churubusco. Ori/.ua, Sept, 19 ,1847. Deal Sir I have the honor to inioim you that an •-xpress arrived here this evening from Mexico, which brought the intelligence that Gen. Scott wusm the city f Mexico ; and that on the 13th the American troops Mok Chapmt* p**c and the citadel,and went into the city (hat night. Gen. Bravo was killed, and Gen. Santa Anna was wounded in the arm and had retired with the l enminder of his troops, which had suffered much, to (j uadalupe Y our friend, &c , To F. M Dimono, Esq., Collector, Vera Cruz A letter from a creditable source confirms all that is ui the above, and only disagrees with it stating that the city was carried by assualt on the 14th. The Sun of \nahuac has it that on the 13th the heights and work* <>f Chapultepec were carried; that on the 14th and la the city was bombarded, and that a part of our army mitered it on the morning of the 16th, the balance re maining at Chapultepec. As we have, alteady stated, however, we place no reliance on any of these reports xcept that of the correspondent ol Mr. Diinond. As to our loss before the army entered the city, we °ve nothing authentic. We fear that this new victory i;*9 not been achieved without great loss of life. The Mexican accounts show that active hostilities comuien ed on the Bth,and were continued with more or less • ctivity until our army took possession oi the city. A <.:ssenger by the James L Day informs us that it was poited aihong the Mexicans at Vera Ciuz thnt we .-t i7UO men kitted and wounded, but he could trace t to no authentic source. Another p iss.- iger estimates (Jen. Scotfs loss at from one-iourth to one-third of his army, in killed and wounded, but upou what data he bases his opinion we cannot learn, and are inclined to think it is purely conjecture. Cion’s. Worth, smith and Pillow. The Picayune of the 26th, notices the fact, that the Christian name ot Gen. Smith is not given, and express es the hope that the person reported to be dead, is not Gen. Persifor F. Smith, who so greatly distinguished himself at the battle of Contreras. The Editor adds; “ The report is purely Mexican. We must hope, therefore j that our brave and meritorious fellow citizen is saved from so rude a fate as death from a Mexican bullet. But the brave often fall. Many a gallant spirit lias already fallen in our war with Mexico, and our lore bodmgs incline us to look lor sad and mournful intelli gence when we shall have had full particulars of the last battles. “After we had written the above, in our further peru "<il oi the Mexican journals—from which we are com pelled to translate the intelligence which we give our readers—we not.ee statements which lead to the possi bility, or probability, that amongst those who have fall -11 Victims to then valor, we have to add th** names of Gens. Worth and Pillow. God grant may all prove to be idle rumor Still w- shall look “ with tear and trembling” lor the list of killed and wounded ui the t anks of our valium and daring little army. Parades iu Scott’s Hear. The New Orleans Picayune ot the 28th ult. has the following item cfimportAdoe: In relation to Paredes, the Arco Iris of the 18th inst after mentioning that the Padre Jnrnuta had left Sol dad tor Julapa with a force of three hundred men, well mounted, anu aimed and equipped, with the intention ot attacking the first tram that went up, says it has re liable intelligence that the ex-President was in the slate j of Puebla with a force of six thousand men, prepared to prevent any reinforcements from reaching Gen. Scott. It is added that he declared it was In* intention in re luming to his native country, only to serve her in dif ficulties and not to foment a revolution for his personal advancement. Earlier advices state tint he had been sick at Tepeaca, from winch he had recovered. He had been appointed Inspector General of the National Guard, or militia ot Puebla , but the Arco Ins shrewdly observes that it is not probable he returned to Mexico lo obtain so entpty an honor as tins. The Government up to the last advices had made no attempt to arrest him in his proceedings. We come uovv to what our readers have looked ] for with great anxiety—the basis upon which Mr. ! Trist ami die Mexicans proposed to negotiate. It \ will l>e seta that from the commencement there* was no real intention on the part of the Mexicans to couclude a peace. Iu fact it is not saying too j much to assert that their propositions were fitrei- ; cal in the extreme, and originated in fraud uud de ception, the only motive which evidently actuated j them Uriug n desire to obtain time to strengthen , themselves for a re newed conflict. For w ant of time and space, we only give an outline of tlie proposition* of each party. The * first proposition we come to is that of Mr. Trist: Art. 1. There will he a firm and universal peace f between the U. States of America und the United 1 States of Mexico, without any exception whatso ever. All hostilities by seu or land shull cense im mediately and definitively as soon us the rutilicu tion shall have been exchanged by both parties. Ai t. *2. All prisoners of war made by both par ties, both 011 sea and laud, riiali be liberal*** 1 a.- soon as practicable after the exchange of ratifica tion* of this treaty. Besides it is agreed that il uuy Mexican citizens should be prisoners of the (JttiiMuches, or of any tribes of Indians within the limits of tln* I’. Slates, the government of the L. States w ill endeavor to obtain their return to tbeii homes, according to the treutn-s existing with those Indians. Art. 3. As soon us the present treaty shall have I , been duly ratified by the tinted Stales of Mexico, | orders will be issued without delay to the com manders u! both parlies, both ou s-a and land, that j hostilities ure suspended, uud that mu li suspension I shall be strictly observed. Immediately after tin cxchnuge of intificnlions of the present treaty, nil tin* polls, territory, towns and possession* of every kind, wlin h may have beeucuptureti by the Uuited States from the Uuited States 01 Mexico during tlie war, except those comprised within the limits of the United Mttilert, a* iietincd by uilule No. 4of this treaty, wall bo given up without and lay and without occusioiiing any uuUiugo, or without any exportation of artillery, or public property aptur# *1 originally iu said ports or tow..* or win 11 may be then ,11 at tin* ratificati .11 of this tie.ny. Art. 4. The dividing line hetwc 11 the two r * public*, wdi comment.<- in tin* Uuif 01 Mexico, 3 leagues of 1m i u niting the Uiouth us ihe Rio <iramie, them upwards by tin- iniddl* of said riv er to a point whore it reach*'* tin* meridian line of New Mexico; thence towaid* tfie wcsltotho lon gitude of the southern liinis of New Mexico, at the angle southwest tis the same ; thence towards tin* north to the longitude of th** northern line of .New Mexico, until it is iutersechd by the lust arm • f the Rio Gil , or if it should uni he intersected by uuy arm of that river, thence to the point of soul line nearest to said arm; thence iu a direct hue lo tu* same and descending by the said river Gila, un* til it* discharge into to*'river Colorado and the mi Idle of the Gull ot Ushfoinia to the l'ncihc Ocean. At. 5. In con* d'ration of tin-extension of terri tory, us defined by tlie preceding article and by tin* stipulations which will appear in article No. H. tin* I u*t* <1 Slat* h abandon, forever, till claims n :.un*t Tiiu United Stale* of Mexico, oil account ot :he expenses ot tlie Wat ; r ud besides tills ttglcu to pay the Uuited fltatrv of Mexico, (Tin *um is not *j*ei Hied.

In consideratiou of article No. 4 th* Unitod State agree to guarani# e i.ud pay to the ‘'brilliants all tin- obligation* vvhri h i.i'c now diic nid which may fill duo according to the conven tion concluded between the two Republics m ifi. ity of Mexico on the 30'h January, 1843. and t” provide 4<*f the jaylient of the ic*i*i*uiM given in iivor of the * bJnuuiU, given under a couveutinn n t I die M 1 It# 1 public, under data of the 11th April, IBJ9. Aud tba United StHt*** also agree to nssttuie the pay im n? ut claims nf citizens of the L’nited States not Previously decided against the Government of the United States of Mexico, up to a sum which shall not exceed three millions of dollars, and which idiull have originated previous to the 13th of May, 1846, and which also shall have been ucknowledg ed as just debts by a tribunal of commissioners ap pointed by tin.* Government of the United States, whose decisions shall be definitive und binding, provided that on deciding ou said demand*, the Miiil tribunal shall be governed by tlie principles > nd rules prescribed by articles Nos. 1 uml Sot the lonven ion, not ratified but concluded in the city of Mexico on the 20th of November, 1843; and in no i. se shall a decision be given in favor of any claim niileoK it is regulated by tin s-* principles and rules; and the l uitecl Slates by this, uud forever after ex onerat*- the United States of Mexico from all re sponsibility to these cloimants, whether rejected or admitted by said commissioners. Arj. 7. Merely states teat iu case ofony difficul ty io the settlements of the claims, tlie arvhivcsof the Government arc to beat the servo of tlie com mission to ascertain the validity of the claims. Art. 8. The United States shall have iu perpetu ity free ol any tax or claim whatsoever, for the pro duce of their own couutry or the produce introdu ced under their flag, the transportation of goods ! through the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, for or from 1 the Pacific, by any means of couvcyunce now iu CAi.'h-uc e, or to be established her*-altar, by cuimls or ruilroads. Alt. 9. All the goods introduced during the oc cupation of the country by the United States shall he free from either importation or iuterual duties, and tree from confiscation. Ast. 10. The article ot amity, commerce and navigation, concluded iu the city of Mexico on the Dili April, 1831, between the two powers, shall be renewed tor the period of eight years after the ratification of this treaty ; each party having the right after the expiration of that period, to termin-1 ate the same by a notice of one year. Art. 11. This treaty will he approved ami ratifi-1 ed by tin* President of the United States of Ameri-1 ca, with the approbation and consent of the Senate, and by the consent of the United States of Mexico w ith the toll approbation of th© General Congress; and th** ratifications will be exchanged in tlie city <f Washington within the period of month Irani the date on which it may be signed or as soon us possible. Leaving aside for the present the first instruc tions from Santa Anna to the Mexican commission ers, we proceed to give an outline of the ultimatum ottered by them under his renewed instruction, w liich differs slightly from the original proposition: Art. 1. Is merely an expression es a desire that there may he a firm und lasting peace between th* two Republics. Art. 2. Stipulates that all prisoners taken by land or sea shall be given up after the treaty is signed, and that any Mexicans who may be prison < rs of the savage tribes of Indians with ntln* limits of the United States, shall be given up by the Gov ernment of the United States ami returned to their homes. Art. 3. All the forts, towns or territory and artil lery taken by the forces of the United States shall he returned to Mexico. Art. 4. Tlio dividing line between the two Re publics shall commence iu the Gulf of Mexico, leagues from laud, in front, from tlie Southern mouth of the Bay of Corpus Christi, to run iu a straight line, through said Bay to the mouth of the Rio de laa Nueces, to follow theuce the course of that river to its source; from the source of the River Nueces a straight line will be traced until it meets the actual frontier of New Mexico by the east, north and west of New Mexico, until it meets latitude 37, which will serve as the boundary ol the two Republics: from the point at which i; touches the frontier of New Mexico to the Pacific The Government of Mexico agrees not to found any new establishment or colonies in the space of i ml which lies between the Rio Grande und the Nueces. A... In consideration of the extension of the territorial limits of the United States, the Govern ment of tin* said States agree to pay to the Gov ernment of th3 U. States of Mexico, $ ,at tin ‘ city of Mexico, on the day of the exchange of rati fication* of this treaty. Arts. 6 and 7. By these articles the U. State agree to release the Mexican Government from all claims of the Government or citizens of the United States. Art. 8. Provides for the settlement of claims in the same manner as is provided iu the proposition of Mr. Trist. Art. 9. Stipulates that the Catholic religion and the property belonging to that persuasion shall b respected in the territory ceded to the U. States. Art. 10, Citizens of Mexico who may happen t< be in the IT.l T . Slates to have the privilege of return ing to Mexico, without any tax being exacted from them. Art. 11, All grants of laud made l>y the Mexi cau Government previous to this cession of terri tory are to be respected by the Government m* l~ United States. Art. 12. The Republic of the United States bind itselt, solemnly, not to admit henceforward the an nexation of any district or territory comprised within the limit assigned by the present treaty t< the Mexican Republic. Tbs solemn compromise is one of the conditions under which Mexico makes a cession of territory to the Republic of North A m erica. Art. 13. All goods now in the ports occupied by the American troops will pay the duties establish ed by the Republic unless they have been pre pi,id ; otherwise they will be confiscated. Art. 14. The government ot the United States will satisfy justly the claims of Mexicon citizens for the damage the American troops have done them. Art. 13 merely relates to the rutifiention of tin treaty.

Our estimate of the quantity takcu f*r consump tion in tlie Cotton growing States; does not include a .. Cotton manufactured iu the States South und West of Virginia. The quantity of new Cotton received at the Shipping Porta up to the 1 tiust. amounted to 1121 bales, against about 200 bales last year. \N ** have this year made up our statement of the crop of the United States, without incitniiug the quantity received overland at Baltimore uml Phil adelphia, it being almost universally conceded that it has already been included in the shipments uj the Mississippi from New Orleans*—to show a fan comparison, however, with hist year, we have ap pended the amounts’ so received at those ports. The shipments given in the above statement from Texas, are those by sea only; u considerable portion of the crop of that State finds its wav to market via Red River, and is included in the it- eiptsut New Orleans—upwards of 4000 hales, r. is supposed, have thus been received during th* season.
