THE LATEST FROM THE ARMY.
ARRIVAL OF THE NEW YORK.
The steamship N. York, Capt. Phillips,
arrived in the course of the forenoon yes
terday from Brazos Santiago and Gal
veston, having left the former place on
the 29th and the latter on the 80th nit., —
Among the passengers on the New ork
were Col. Morgan, Cant. Holllon and
Lieut. Alyord, of the U. S. Army; Col.
Maiks, Adjt. Hunter, Lieut. Harris, of
the Andrew Jackson Regiment Louisiana
Volunteers; Col. Dakin, Major McCall,
Capis. Fowles and Clark, and Lieuten
ant Mace, of Dakin’s Regiment; and Col.
Walton, Lieut. Col. Forno, Major Breed
love, and Dr. Wilson, of the Washing'on.
The New Yoik reports that the propel
ler Massachusetts arrived at the Brazos
on the 25ih nit. The brig Crusoe struck
on Brazos bar in going over, and upon !
making the landing sunk. The clerk of I
the New York reports that he saw on the
29ih the hark Kazan, hence for BrAszoa
Santiago, ashore ten miles to the oast of
the Brazos. The troops on board were
«I1 saved. Her cargo consisted of Gov.
eminent stores which were saved; the
vessel was a total loss. The New York
on the 81st nit., when 90 miles from S,
VV. Pass, passed the ship Nhannnga from
Brazos Santiago to this port with volun- !
leers.
The steamer Galveston arrived at Gal- ■
ve.-don on the 80lh. It was reported at
Galveston that the steamboat Panama
had been on her voyage from that
port for Point Isabel, though the News
>a vs -In; was at Point Cuvalioon the 24th
ul iiTlO.
'Hie 11. S. steamer Whitevillo, Capt.
Dunn, arrived at Galveston on the 251 h
from this city hound to the Rio Grande.
Oni correspondent, Mr. Haile, was a pas
senger on this boat.
The intelligence from the interior of
Texas is totally devoid of interest.
We learn that Mr. Lumsden and his
party reached Point Isabel on Friday, the
21th inst., and the next day proceeded to
Malamoros. It was thought that they
would j in one of the companies of
•unit d Rangers.
The American Flag of the 24th ult.,
has the following paragiaphs:
A gentleman arrived in tow n yester
day from Monclovu, direct, and in a re
markably short time, passing through
Candala, Tlascala, Willa Altama, Sabi
nas, Mier, Camargo and Reynosu, and
states that every thing was perfectly quiet
on the route, and that the people are ex
pecting the appioach of our army. He
learned on the load that there had been
no further arrival of troops at Monterey.
At Monclova letters had been received
stating that Paredes had arrived at San
Luis Potosi at the heat! of 9000 men, but
having received despatches, by express,
countermarched his command, and pro
ceeded to retrace his steps to the city of
Me xico. The reason of this sudden about j
face is only to be attributed to some pro- ,
nttnciamcn/o at the capital.
A new company has been formed for
the protection of the country bordering on
the Nueces. They leave here to-morrow
or next day fir Corpus Chrisli. A large |
portion of the men comprising this com
pany were attached ’o Capt. Bell’s corps
of “Corpus Chrisli Rangers,” lately dis
banded, and are returning to their old
cruising ground to hold in check the Ca- !
manche Indians ami marauding Me.xi- j
cans. The following officers have been
chosen by the company: M. B. Gray, I
captain; Dewitt Lyons, Ist lieutenant;
John Castloman, 2d lieutenant; VV. B,
Saver, orderly sergeant. A good com
pany anil well officered.
An officer who arrived here yesterday
from the upper encampment, states that
lie saw the body of a murdered man about
three miles from here on the road. He ;
could not get his horse near enough to ex- i
amino the corpse closely, but from w hat 1
fie could see, he was of opinion the de.
ceased had been a non-commissioned offi.
cer. We have more than once cautioned
people against “knocking about” un
armed. Volunteers and sojourners are
daily seen far from town and the camp
unarmed, and it is a matter of wonder that
ipore are not killed.
Unfortunate Occurrence. —On Wednes
day evening last a difficulty arose be
tween oue of the Rangers and a Dragoon,
which /exulted in the death of the latter.
We are not advised of the particulars of
the affair, hut understand that the Dra
goon was shot througli the head. His
name was McCormick. The murderer
, I was a Texan, named Mathew Rvan.
It w'as reported in town yesterday that
some 3000 twelve months volunteers
reached the Point on Wednesday.
LATER FROM TEXAS.
By the arrival of the schooner Native,
we have received Galveston papers to the
25th ult.
We learn from the Civilian and the
News, that Dr. Niles F. Smith, who ar
rived at Galveston from the Sabine on
Wednesday, the 22d ult., reported that
the beach some forty miles east of Gal
veston was strewn with the fragments of
an upper cabin steamer, which had pro
bably bt eu wrecked or foundered at sea ,
somewhere in the vicinity of the mouth of
the Sabine. Most of tfie pieces which
along the beach were parts
of her upper cabin, doors, shutters, &c., i
1 together with tables, chairs, and other ar.
tides ot furniture. There were also se
| veral bales of tobacco, such as is carried
to the Mexican market, but nothing to
: indicate the name of the boat. She was
| doubtless on her way from New Orleans
j to the Rio Grande; but nothing more •
; could be safely interred from these facts.
: No living person or dead body bad come
; ashore; but whether those who had been
i on board had gotten off in boats or on any !
; other vessel, or all perished, was uncer
| tain.
The Texan Advocate of the fill) of July
announces the arrival at Victoria of Mr. j
Lumsden and his associates of the Gaines j
' Rangers, on their way to the army, via ;
: Corpus Christi. They arrived there on ;
the Wlh, and we presume in the best health j
j and spirit, from the lone in which the
1 editor greets them.
The schooner Vesta, which left Gal- j
| voston three weeks ago with Capt. Seefeld
and twenty or thirty volunteers for Brazos
Santiago, returned to Galveston on the I
23d ult., it having been impossible to j
complete the voyage, owing to the severi
ty of the weather.
'j he sloop Sarah arrived at Galveston j
on llie 24th ult. from Aransas Pass. She *
reported that the steamer Sea, Captain
Pitt field, which left Brazos Santiago for
I New Orleans on the 20 h ult., went I
j ashore on the north breakers of Aransas |
i Pass that night. A heavy gale was blow
i ing from the S. E. at the time, and while
: the captain was endeavoring to enter that
| Pass to lake in an additional supply of
1 coal, a sudden squall came on and drove
i the boat upon the breakers in spite of all
i her steam power to resist it. [She was
subsequently got otf, and readied Gal
! veston on the 29th, and was to sail for
■ this port on the 30th ]
! A s.ooji from Galveston was wrecked |
j at about the same time and near the same j
; place.
On board the J?ea were Capt. Know 1 ton, :
] of the Ist U. S. Artillery, who, together j
i with six or eight volunteers and two re- ;
gular soldiers, discharged on account ot
; bad health, came passenger on thfe Sarah. :
; Capt. Kuowltou, who is on his way to i
; the East on the recruiting service, had j
‘ been for some lime past stationed at Point
1 Isabel, and to him had been assigned the i
duly of mustering the Texas volunteers j
into service and organizing them. Two !
j full regiments of Texas cavalry have i
j now been organized—the first under Col. ]
Hays, the second under Col. Wood.—
One regiment of infantry, under Col. !
Johnson, is fully organized and complete, )
I with the exception of Capt. Seefeld’s com
pany, w hich is not filled in consequence
of his long detention on the Vesta, on \
w Inch the residucof his company embark
ed three w eeks since. These three regi
i ineots make about 2000 men, each hav- !
ing between G and 700. A small part
only of the Texas troops had been sup- |
plied with tents by Government, and these j
' they made up for themselves.
The pilot-boat Black Hawk swamped j
on the 21st ult. off Galveston, and a ne- i
gro drowned. The captain of the boat !
and two men were saved by the energy of i
the pilot, Capt. Symptom, who bravely
I periled bis life in the service.
The schooner Virginia, Capt. Thomp- j
son, arrived at Galveston on tlie 23d ult. i
having left Brazos Santiago it ballast on i
the 13th ult. She was bound for New
Orleans, but was unable to get within
. about one hundred miles of Balize, ;
and was finally compelled strong
| easterly winds to put into Galveston.
The schooner J. G. McNeil, which left
New York on the 11th June, arrived offi
the bar of Galveston on the 16th ult., but ;
! on account of the heavy sea and strong |
wind was unable to come over till the !
2lst, After coming to anchor, she was |
even compelled to slip the cable.and put
back to sea.
j The schooner Mary, Capt. Brown, also
! arrived yesterday from Matagorda Bay.
Capt. B. reports the loss of the schooner |
S Two Friends, on the 22d, on Matagorda
i bar. Her cargo consisted of coal for the
j Government, Both vessel and cargo |
I were a total loss.
The baik Mopaugand schooner Brazos ]
were the only two vessels that had arrived
j at Matagorda with troops and Govern- \
: mem stores.
The Austin Democrat of the 16th ult. j
says, that on the morning of the I,2th a
German butcher was fired upon hv two j
Indians, while on his way* to market, a
short distance below tow n. The Demo
crat says—
“ Soon after daylight it was di-covered
that some five or six horses had been
taken from the neighborhood, and Indian
‘signs’ were discovered in various direc
tions. As soon as these facts were ascer
tained by Capt. Highsmith, he oidered
out a party of his ranging company in
I pursuit, but we are sorry to say they re-
I turned in the course of a few hours, after
going as far as the foot of the mountain,
without being able to make any disco,
veries or even get on their trail. To
what tribe these thieving rascals belong
• ” &
; is, ot course, impossible to tell,”
THE LAST HOURS OF CAPT. PAGE.
The New Orleans Bulletin contains
I some items of intelligence concerning the
! last hours of the gallant but unfortunate
Captain Page, tiiat will be read with me
lancHMy interest. We copy the article:
Captain Page. —-We have already
mentioned the death of this gallant but
unfortunate officer. When be embarked
at Point Isabel, for this city, although
feared that he would be for life a helpless
victim of his terrible wound, yet he was
regarded as convalescent; but his expo
. sure during the voyage caused a relapse,
fiom which he never recovered. When
we saw him on board the Missouri , on
Tuesday, 7th July, he was quite help
less. He was fed by means of a silver
lube, and expressed his wishes on a slate.
: He was accompanied by his devoted wife,
who continued to nurse him with true
j conjugal tenderness, denying herself all
relief and rest, until she was taken e.v
hausted from his bedside a few hours
1 before his death. His faithful Orderly,
! John Halliday, was also *viih him, from
the time he received his wound, until he
breathed his last. Brother soldiers, the
diffierences of rank were forgotten, and he
nursed his commander with fraternal
affection and fidelity.
At 12 o’clock on’Saturday the 11th,
; the unfortunate officer became sensible ;
that his death hour was approaching.— j
When asked if he was reconciled to die, j
Ihe made a sign that be was. Mrs. Page \
1 being exhausted and having been re- |
moved from his bedside, the wife of the j
Captain of the boat, and a lady who was |
a passenger, took her place, and did not i
quit if until 4 o’clock on Sunday morning, i
when, clasping the hand of one of them in i
his cold, damp fingers, and with appealing I
eyes endeavoring to express the feelings
he could not speak, he expired.
It is consoling to reflect that though lie j
did not die, like the gallant Ringgold*, on ;
111** field of glory, with the shout of triumph
in his ears, yet in his last moments, his ;
i suffering was lightened by the cares, the
: sympathies, and the tears of woman, and
1 by tiie love unto death of his devoted wife,
i The brave soldier now rests in his last
| repose beneath the turf of Jefferson Bar- |
racks, whither his remains were taken
| for burial.
It would he unjust to the living to close i
this notice without referring to the con- ;
duct of Capt. Tvvichell. Had the dying j
! man been bis bosom friend, instead of a j
passenger on his boat, he could not have ‘
i received from him more kindness and at
: tention. j
I , ■—- !
ihe Moon in Lord Rosse’s Telescope. — !
i Dr. Scoresby of Ireland, whose admira
i ble discourses on Astronomy have been :
ananged after the examination of the
1 stellar system through the magnificent in- !
. strumem ot Lord Rosse, remarks in a re- i
, cent lecture, that with regard to the lunar
orb, every object on the moon’s surface j
is now distinctly to be seen; and, he had |
no doubt that under very favorable cir- !
cuiustances, it would be so with objects I
sixty feet in height. On its surface were j
craters of extinct volcanoes, rocks, and
t masses of stones almost innumerable.—
i He had no doubt whatever that if such a j
building as he was then in were upon tfie \
• surface of the moon, it would be tendered |
j distinctly visible by these instruments.—
But there were no signs of habitations |
such as ours—no vestiges of arcbitectur
! al remains to show that the moon is or
ever was inhabited by a race of mortals
similar to ourselves. It represented no
| appearance which could lead to the sup
; position that it contained anything like the :
green fields and lovely verdure of this '
beautiful world of ours. There was no
water visible—-Mot a sea, or a river, or
even the measure of a reservoir for sup
plying town or factory—all seemed deso
late. Hence would arise the reflection in
the mind of the Christian philosopher—
whv had this devastation been? It might I
■ be further inquired—was it a lost world?
i Had it suffered for its transgression?—
Analogy might suggest the question—had
it met the fate which Scripture told us
was reserved for our world? ft was ob
vious that all this was mysterious con
jecture.
Dreadful Destitution. —A Physician
residing a short distance from Baltimore, I
was called up a few nights since, by a
j young woman, who sent him to see a sick
lady in haste, staling that she would at- |
tend his office until his return. He went, j
ascertained that he had been tricked, re- i
| turned to his office, and found the poor
I girl a mother. When asked why she
1 had practised the deceit, she burst into
tears, and stated that she could not help
it —she had no home, The doctor hu- ,
manely gave up his office bed, and re
iicved her necessities.

A New Planet. —A French philoso
pher, Mr. Leverrier, at the meeting of
! the Paris Academy of Sciences on the :
30th June, read a paper which attracted
| a great deal of attention. It related to !
nothing less than a new world which he i
affirmed he had discovered. He said I
there existed in the celestial space a plan- i
• el which nobody had yet seen, not even
! himself, but the existence of which he
i could prove. “It was in-the depth of his j
i study,” says the French paper from which
1 we translate, “without opening his win
! dow, by a combination ol figures and the
x, that Air. Leverrier discovered tiie planet |
! in question, and calculated its orbit and
measured its mass. It remains for the
astronomer to verify this calculation by
actual observation with instruments. Mr. !
Leverrier is not uneasy as to the results
of this proof; ha indicates the region of
the heavens to which observers must drop |
their glasses, and the precise moment |
when the star will pass them, i. e. Ist of
June. 1847.”
| The writer goes on to state the circum
stances which led the savan to this im
portant discovery, if such it be. It seems j
I that certain irregular movements in the I
j planet U ranus have long been the despair !
jof astronomers. While the other stars !
move in the most orderly manner in their j
appointed places, this distant member of
i the solar system at times plays the most !
unaccountable pranks. Some have im- !
puted these to errors in the calculations of
the geometricians, and others to some dis
-1 turbing influences on the part of Saturn - '
4 and Jupiter. But Mr. Leverrier says j
that neither of these conjectures is right;
but that Uranus is exposed to the effects
I of another planet not yet revealed to sight.
This is beyond Uranus, and at double tfie
distance of that planet fiom the sun. Mr,
Leverrier professes to he able to prove
j this by the most unquestionable nmlhe
j matics.
A ROMANTIC INCIDENT.
The Pa ris correspondent of the New-
York Courier des Etas Unis, in describ
, ing a recent fete in Paris, tells the follow-
I ing story:
At cne of the last soirees given bv the
•i minister of foreign affairs, the concourse
was very great of ladies of the diplomat
ic corps, when Ibrahim Pacha was an
nounced. His Egyptian highness passed
smiling along the front of the charming
line, when, having reached the extremity
of the circle w here stood Madame X., the
lace of the prince became suddenly flush
ed, and he immediately passed on, with
difficulty concealing the traces of lively
emotion. It was still more difficult for
the lady to hide her confusion. We hap
j pen to have it in our power to give the
true motive of his embarrassment, the
disclosure of which can in no wise, at the
present time, be injurious to any one.
Some time before the battle of Homs,
which preceded that of Konieh, and during
the negotiations which were carried on
| between Mehemet Aliand Hussien Pacha
j for a definitive arrangement, the Sultan
| Mahmoud, in order to hasten things to a
' favorable conclusion, conceived a myste
i nous project of which Ibrahim Pacha
was to bo the victim. In the Sultan’s
j harem was a young girl of (L eek origin,
j of illustrious birth and of rare beauty ;
; affecting great zeal for her interest, the
! Sultan told her that lie had resolved to
present her to Ibrahim Pacha, who was
j then in Syria; he drew a brilliant picture
I of the happiness and glory that awaited
i her there, if she could secure his heart.
| “To succeed infallibly in this,” added he,
; “here is an irresistible talisman,” and he
slipped a ring upon her finger. Itisknown
; that in .Turkey, people give read} 7 cre
j deuce to the virtue of talismans in awak-
I ening the heart, and giving birth to love.
! “Profit by a favorable mement,” added
; he, “and when Ibrahim is asleep, dip this
| ring in the beverage which you will give
: him to drink on awakening, and his heart
' and his hand will be forever secured to
j you.”
i Th 6 innocent child set forth, and it was
: only at Aleppo, that, with a numerous
| suit of slaves loaded with presents for the
prince, she succeeded in joining him.—
1 Hut this extraordinary liberality, under
I existingei rcumstances, aw akened his sus
| pictons, and he would not keep up the
i young girl but sent her to Sidiaga, the j
Governor of Alexandria, Always ere- |
dulous, and con fid ini; in the virtue of her
1 .
talisman, the fair Greek administered to
this new master the beverage which the ;
Sultan destined for the conqueror of Acre j
and Damascus, and the Aga immediately j
expired. Being accused of having poi- ]
soned him, “Here is,” said she, “in proof
of my innocence, the glass and here is
the ring.” The ring was in fact found
uninjured, but the little stone with which
| it was ornamented had disappeared.—
I Ibrahim, informed of the event and all the
| circumstances, extended a generous pro- |
tectiou to the young Greek, and took care
afterwards to have her restored to her
family. He never saw her again till he
met her in Paris, in the saloon ol M.
Guizot and as Madame X.
