SIMPSON invites the attention of .I.TJL. Capitalists to the statements contained in the following Advertisements, relating to the past, present, and prospective per manency of Rentals and the value of Land, confirming, as they do, the predictions which he ventured to make last April, in a speech at Norwich, in which he observed, that " although he had been a thorough-going Protectionist, he was proud to say, that sliding and all other scales had fallen from his eyes ;—that it was his firm and honest conviction, that Rents which had been set on fair and liberal principles within the last seven years would be permanent ; that the year's purchase on such Rentals had risen within the last six months, and in all probability would continue to rise ; and that in adopting free trade measures, Sir Robert Peel had proved himself to be one of the most talented, far-sighted, and fearlessly honest Ministers that had ever lived in the tide of time." The present circumstances of the country, from a general scarcity of food throughout Europe, fully justify the opinion here expressed of the eminent talents mad courage displayed by Sir Robert Peel. (t is stated by the most com petent judges that if his wise measures of free trade had not been carried out, the prices of Corn and produce would have risen to a famine height. Mr. Simpson has also been assured by the most re spectable salesmen in Smithfield Market, that if it had not been or the alteration of the Tariff, the price of Meat would long since have risen to one shilling per pound, and even now the general impression is, that before next harvest the prices of provisions will reach a height beyond what would be conducive to the general prosperity of the country. Mr. Simpson, in conclusion, cannot refrain from al luding to the opinion of that eminent man, the late Sir Charles We therell, on the subject. A high Tory and firm Protectionist, the fears he entertained as to the probable results of the Repeal of the Corn Laws induced him to determine on selling his landed property, but his better judgment prevailed, and he not only retained pos session of it, but was in the comae of making further investments when he met his lamentable fate. THE PROTECTIONISTS — WHERE ARE THEY? WHERE ARE NOW YOUR PROPHETS WHO PROPHESIED UNTO YOU ? NORTHAMPTONSHIRE. Within TWO MILES of the WELLINGUOROUII STATION, ex ceedingly VAITABLE ESTATE, consisting of 468 ACRES of very excellent ARABLE, MEADOW, DAIRY, and GRAZING LAND, lying within a RING FENCE. MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received instructions from the Trustees of the late John Christie, Esq., to SEk k l. by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on TUESDAY, November if, at Twelve o'clock, An exceedingly valuable FREEHOLD and COPYIIOLD ESTATE, eligibly situate in the parishes of Irchester. and Wymington, within three miles of the capital market town of Wellingborough, and two miles only from the railway station, which is within about half an hour's transit by railway to the important town of Northampton. It comprises a farmhouse and suitable agricultural buildings, toge ther with 304 acres of land, including 237 acres of arable, generally of easy tillage and deep staple. much the larger surface of which, under proper cultivation, adapts itself to the turnip and barley course of husbandry; and the entire arable surface of the estate is grateful, and in fair average seasons yields abundantly in corn, leguminous, and green crops in all their varieties. The meadow end pasture lands are to a considerable extent of good feeding and dairy quality ; still they are, however, susceptible of improvements relating to draining, Sm., which, if carried out, would increase their present pro ductiveness; the same observation will apply to certain portions of the arable surface of the estate. As it would not be prudent for tenants of uncertain tenure to incur this expenditure, the following clause is inserted in the agreements:—" In addition to the rent, the tenants are to pay six per cent. on the outlay of the landlord for drainage, which Irainage the landlord is to do according,to a specifica tion to be agreed upon between the tenants and Mr. W. W. Gardner, the agent to the vendors." The above farm is in the occupation of Mr. James Mather, yearly tenant, who renewed his agreement at Michaelmas, 1845, at a rent of 5821. 10s. per annum. Mr. Mather and Lis family have been located on the estate for nearly a century. Mr. Mather is not only wealthy, but of excellent character ; a first class cultivator and manager generally ; he stocks highly, and, at the present period has a flock of 600 sheep, between the Leicester and Down, superior in regard to frame and quality of wool. Also a desirable Farm adjoining, with farm-house and agricultural build ings, and about 138 Acres of deep surfaced and exceedingly produc tive arable land, including a small field of pasture, in the occupation of Miss Elizabeth Frost, a highly respectable yearly tenant, from Michaelmas, 1845, at a rent of 2201. per annum. The family of Miss Frost have been tenants on this estate upwards of 40 years. The arable surface partakes very much of the same description and qua lity as Mr. Mather's occupation, with the exception that there is not quite so large a proportion kindly to the turnip course; still there are very few fields on the entire estate where turnips are not grown and folded off. Also about 24 acres of excellent arable land, called Avenue Close, in the occupation of the Rev. Charles Partridge, vicar, tenant from year to year, at a rent of 471. 10s. per annum, for the purpose of being let to labourers as allotments. The cOpyhold por tion of the above property is in the parish of Irchester, and pays an annual quit-rent of 31. 16s. 3d., and a fine of the like amount on alienation or death, to the lord of the manor of Irchester : it is, therefore. equal in value to freehold. The apportioned tithe rent-charge on the whole estate amounts to 61. I4s. 3d. only, and which is paid by the tenants, therefore it may be considered virtually tithe rent-charge free. In respect to the permanency of the rentals Mr. Simpson refers to that best test, namely the character of the tenants, who have so re cently taken their occupation at the present rents, added to the de sire expressed by them to be continued on their farms in the event of the estate being sold. Mr. Simpson having made a most minute survey, field by field, and careful estimate of the property, fearlessly asserts it is one of the most desirable estates for occupation and the secure investment of capital he has seen in the course of his ex tensive experience. The property may be viewed, and particulars (with plans annexed) may now - be obtained of Mr. William Henry Cotterill, solicitor, 32, Throgmorton-street, City ; of George Burnham, Esq., solicitor, Wellingborough ; of Mr. W. W. Gardner, Biggleswade; 'and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury, London.

The comedy is admirably written ; the dialogue is always smart, and not unfrequently witty, and there is a vast deal of character about the play, The characters, in fact, are all individualities, living, breathing, walking, talking people—not mere generali ties. It was capitally acted, and put upon the stage in the best possible style. It was announced for repetition amidst the loud applause of a crowded house, and we con gratulate Mr. Webster in having added one more to the already numerous managerial triumphs which he has achieved, and an excellent comedy to the Hay market repertoire. AMERICAN NEWS. ARRIVAL OF EHE HIBERNIA. EIGIIT DAYS LATER FROM THE UNITED STATES. CAPTURE OF MONTEREY AFTER HARD FIGHTING. LIVE RPOOL, THURSDAY. The Royal Mail steam-ship Hibernia, Captain Ryrie, arrived here this morning at a quarter to six o'clock with the usual mails and fifty-five passengers. By her we have received our usual files of papers to the day of sailing, the 16th instant, she having made the trip, including her calling and stay at Halifax, in twelve days and a half. She brings very important intelligence. The American arms have.been success ful against the Mexicans at Monterey, which city, after a gallant defence, was compelled to capitulate on the 24th of September. The following are extracts from the papers : Since the sailing of the last steamer, we have received intelligence of a very startling nature from the, army. After a' tedious march,- General Taylor , and the 'forces under his command came in sight of Monterey on the 18th of September. The men were much wearied, and began to give out, their food having been spoiled by severe rains. The advance were immediately saluted with a heavy cannonade, the sound of which acted like a charm on the jaded men. All became life and motion, and severe fighting followed. On the 20th, a successful attack was made by General Worth on the Mexican forts, routing the artillery and capturing their ordnance. On the 22d, the well-fortified palace of the Bishop of Monterey was attacked, and after a severe struggle was captured. On the 23d, the whole Mexican force, about double the American, was driven into the plaza, where, unable to runaway, the Mexican soldiery occupied the houses which surrounded the square, keeping up an in cessant fire from the windows. The conflict was tre mendous, lasting from early morning till late night. The 24th brought a cessation of hostilities, by the capitula tion of General Ampudia. The American loss is 500 in killed and wounded. ..- ..., .., . . ^ it -4 1, 1 1 ...,..,,,, , , - ' 4 .....q.

Sir,—l have the gratification to report that the Bishop's Palace was gallantly carried yesterday by the troops of the 2d division. In the course of the night the batteries below the town, with one exception, were abandoned by the enemy, and this morning occupied by our troops To-day the 3d Infantry, with the field artillery of the Ist division, the Mississippi and Tennessee Regiments, and the 2d regiment of Texas Riflemen, (dismounted), have been warmly engaged with the enemy in the town, and have driven him with considerable loss to the plaza and its vicinity, which is yet strongly occupied. A portion of the 2d division has also advanced into the town on the right, and holds a position there. The enemy still main tains herself in the plaza and citadel, and seems deter mined to make a stubborn resistance. I am particularly gratified to report that our successes of yesterday and to-day, though disastrous to the enemy harckbesa.nahiered withoutzugerial Joss. I cannot speak in too high terms of the'gallantry and perseverance of our troops throughout the arduous ope rations of the last three days. I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, . Z. TAYLOR, Major-General U. S. A. Coco. The Adjutant-General of the Army, Washington, D.C. (No. 91.) Head-quarters, Army of Occupation, Camp before Monterey, Sept. 25, 1846. Sir,—At noon on the 23d inst., while our troops were closely engaged in the lower part of the city, as reported in my last dispatch, I received by a flag a communication from the Governor of the state of New Leon, which is herewith enclosed (No. 1). To this communication I deemed it my duty to return an answer, declining to allow the inhabitants to leave the city. By eleven o'clock, P.M., the 2d division, which had entered the town from the direction of the Bishop's Palace, had advanced within one square of the principal plaza, and occupied the city up to that point. The mortar had, in the meantime, been placed in battery in the cemetery, within good range of the town, and was served through out the night with good effect. Early in the morning of the 24th, I received a flag from the town, bearing a communication from General Ampudia, which I enclose (No. 2), and to which I re turned the answer (No. 3). I also arranged with the bearer of the flag a cessation of fire until 12 o'clock, which hour I appointed to receive the final answer of General Ampudia at General Worth's head-quar ters. Before the appointed time, however, General Am pudia had signified to General Worth his desire for a personal interview with me, for the purpose of making some definitive arrangement. An interview was accord ingly appointed for one o'clock, and resulted in the naming of a commission to draw up articles of agree ment regulating the withdrawal of the Mexican forces, and a temporary cessation of hostilities. The commis sioners named by the Mexican General-in-Chief were Generals Ortega and Requena, and Don Manuel M. Llano, Governor of New Leon. Those named on the American side were General Worth, General Henderson, Governor of Texas, and Colonel Davis, Mississippi volunteers. The commission finally settled upon the articles, of which I enclose a copy (No. 4), the duplicates of which, in Spanish and English, have been duly signed. Agreeably to the pro vision of the 4th article, our troops have this morning occupied the citadel. It will be seen that the terms granted the Mexican garrison are less rigorous than those first imposed. The gallant defence of the town, and the fact of a recent _ _ change of Government in Mexico, believed to be favour able to the interests of peace, induced me to concur with commission in these terms, which will, I trust, receive the approval of the Government. The latter considera . --- ,ion also prompted the convention for a temporary cessa tion of hostilities. Though scarcely warranted by my instructions, yet the change of affairs since those instruc- tions were hilted seemed to warrant this course. I beg to be advised, as early as practicable, whether I have met the views of the Government in these particulars. I regret to report that Captain Williams, topogra phical engineers, and Lieutenant Terrant, Ist infantry, have died of the wounds received in the engagement of the 21st. Captain Gatlin. 7th infantry, was wounded (not badly) on the 23d.—1 am, sir, very respectfully, Your obedient servant. - _ Z. TAYLOR, 'Mal Gen. U.S. - Army, commanding.

As you are resolved to occupy the place by force of arms, and the Mexican General-in-chief resolved to de fend it at every cost, as his honour and duty require him to do, thousands of victims, who, from indigence and want of means, find themselves now in the theatre of war, and who would be uselessly sacrificed, claim the rights which in all times and all countries humanity extends. As Governor of the State, and a legitimate representative of the people, I state that case to you, and hope from your civilisation and refinement, that what ever may be the event of the contest, you will issue orders that families shall be respected, or will grant a reasonable time for them to leave the capital. I have the honour to salute you General-in-Chief of the Army of Occupation of the United States, and to assure you of my highest consideration. God and liberty. THE REWARDS OF FRANCE. (From Punch.)

To prosecute the defence, therefore, would only re sult in distress to the population, who have already suf fered enough from the misfortunes consequent on war ; and taking it for granted that the American Govern merit has manifested a disposition to negotiate, I pro pose to you to evacuate the city and its fort, taking with me the personette and materiette which have remained, and under the assurance that no harm shall ensue to the inhabitants who have taken a part in the defence.

Camp before Monterey, Sept. 24, 1846. Seven o'clock, ♦.M. Sir,—Your communication, bearing date at nine o'clock, P.M., on the 23d inst., has just been received by the hands of Colonel Moreno. Nor sword nor lance wields sly old France, gold righ and left he tosses, And with a match lets off a batch of ribbons, stars, sea crosses ; For his Majesty has changed the plan that used to be in vogue,— The rogue once hung o' the cross, but now the cross hangs on the rogue. -" Come, Conde, try ; come, Buque, buy ; here is a title for disgrace, " A star to blaze upon his breast that should blush to show his face ; " Here's the cross of Honour's Legion for dishonour's foulest stain, " And the Golden Fleece for him that aids to filch the wealth of Spain. " Come,—Mon,—Pidal, my Ministers, ye've been a servile crew, " Here's a cross, bi g knave, and bigger knave, here's a bigger cross for you ! " But thou, my own Heraldo, there be Dupes, Condea, higher, " But take thou the biggest cross of all that art the biggest liar." So spake old France, as grinning he distributed his graces To the gentlemen with hollow hearts, forked tongues, and brazen faces. There were Ministers and writers who had vied which could lie louder, And Field-Marshals that gun-cotton never smelt, much less gunpowder. But round about the Palace, as those honours were bestowing, IA shadowy mail, with woe and wail, were Spain's o/t1 heroes going ; Buy Diaz shook his ghostly fist—the grim old Cam peador— Gonzalez's hand grasped airy brand, Del Carpio's spirit swore.

A complete surrender of the town and garrison, the latter as prisoners of war, is now demanded. But such surrender will be upon terms, and the gallant defence of the plsee,-.creditable alike to the Mexican troops and nation, will prompt me to make those terms as liberal as possible. The garrison will be allowed, at your option, after laying down its arms, to retire to the interior, on condition of not serving again during the war, or until regularly exchanged. I need hardly say that the rights of non-combatants will be respected. An answer to this communication is requested by twelve o'clock.

FINE WRITING ONFOUL WEATHER.—The following sample of fine writing on a very common-place subject is taken from the Bahina.sloe Star of Thursday We have had a constant succession of gales and torrents of rain during the past week. On Wednesday, riarticu larly, the weather vas terrific—one continued deluge poured the live-long day, accompanied by a perfect hur ricane, which uprooted several of the largest trees, and committed other ravages in the country. Even while we write, the' Stern Eagle of the far Nor-west' is hever ing about our town and neighbourhood—swooping now here now there, in his headlong flight, and mingling his wild storm-song as he soars along with the wilder music of his rushing pinions. The callow meadows present one •broad sheet- of white-foamed -waters—the rivers scorning the narrow bounds of their accustomed chan nels are running riot over the flooded fields—and, were it not for a green hillock here and there, one might almost fancy that another fairy well' had overflowed, to work a second miracle like the far •famed one of Blue Lough Neagh.'" HOTEL AND TAVERN -BEEPERS' PROVIDENT IN STITUTION.—The annual dinner of this benevolent as sociation, founded for the relief of aged and necessit pus members, was held on Tuesday at the Freemasons' Tavern, the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the chair. About 120 members and friends of the institution slat down —among whom were Alderman Hooper, Mr. e: Bleaden, Mr. J. Gresham, of Dublin, and most of the leading hotel and tavern-keepers of the metropolis. The occasion was one of peculiar interest to the society, the Lord lilayor having consented to preside for the second time during his mayoralty, on the understanding the. extra efforts would be used to raise the amount required to complete the sum of 5,000/, so as to enable the society to commence operations at once, by giving tempo rary assistance to deserving and necessitous members and others. The Lord Mayor had undertaken to raise 501. among his friends towards making up the requisite sum, but his Lordship's list on being read by the honorary secre tary (Mr. Tapster) was found to amount to 1631. The health of the Lord Mayor was proposed by Mr. Alder man Hooper, who intimated that he understood it was his Lordship's intention to signalise the close of his year of office by a series of the same splendid entertainments that have characterised his mayoralty, an announcement `which was. received with rapturous cheering. Lists of subscriptions were delivered in from Messrs. Lovegrove, Bacon, Bleaden, Tapster, &c., and at an advanced hour in the evening it was announced, amid great applause, that the sum of 5,000/. had been completed. Alderman • . Hooper having complied with the request to preside at the next anniversary, the Lord Mayor left the chair, stating that a general meeting would shortly be held to carry the beneVoleut objects of the society into effect. The dinner and wines fully upheld the high character of Mr. Bacon's establishment. Mr. Harker officiated as toast-master with great success, and the musical ar rangements-left little to be desired. DECORATIVE ART SOCIETY.—The first meeting for the present session was held, Wednesday evening, ut the rooms of the Society, in Great Marlborough-street, when the chair was taken by Mr. Fildes, one of the vice presidents. The chairman opened the fourth session by congratulating the members on the continued progressive state of the society, and particularly on the formation of a library containing works on decorative art in its various departments which were not to be met with at other institutions. Mr. Crabb read a paper on the application of colour to textile rnanufacture:t, which was most amply illustrated by many specimens of the m ,, st esteemed English and foreign manufacture. It was, he stated, a most singular circumstance that the Schools of Design in this country, supported as they were with a most liberal hand by Government, met with no suliP9 l :4t from o manufacturers, and that, from the elevated po e s r i e ll t o l n raw r which they were intended, they hadbeco.imt ture of textile fabrics was, that while ad e quate . a ei s v n e o its leg fin it a i- 1 ted throughout the different ing schools.

ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITIITION.--The profes sors of this admirable establishment are at present en gaged in delivering lectures upon topics of public interest and notoriety. Doctor Bachhoffner every day demon strates most clearly the various electric telegraphs em ployed upon our railways, both in England and Scotlafid, rendering that apparatus and its wonderful effects easily -intelligible to the most simple understanding ; while, in the chemical department, Dr. Ryan is lecturing upon the physical and chemical properties of the atmosphere, in reference, first to atmospheric locomotion, and secondly in relation to respiration and combustion. Great anxiety has b een ex p resse d f or thi s gentleman 'to lecture on the newly-discovered explosive cotton, but we understand that he refuses to do so without the con sent of the patentee, as without such consent he, as well as other scientific gentlemen, imagine that publicity by lecturing would be premature, if not unfair.

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate, for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than it ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an l is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in tke restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasive in answering any lady of respectability to the above facts.-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops oil the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to cur l. The most delicate ladies m a y use this delightful p roduct of the most aromatic herbs and fl owers with confidence ; its refre s hi ng odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the crown of the heal ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair on children's heads in a few appplieltions. If used on infants' 'leads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair. —See pamphlet of testimonials.

HAYMARKET THEATRE A new five act comedy, entitled, Look before you Leap ; or, Wooings and Weddings, was produced here last evening. It is from the pen of Mr. Lovell, the author of the Provost of Bruges, and Love's Sacrifice, tragedies which, on their production, were deservedly received with much applause, but which, from fortuitous circum stances, had not that run to which their merits certainly entitled them. In the present instance, Mr. Lovell has wooed the sister muse most successfully, and Thalia may be proud to reckon him among her votaries. The fol lowing is a sketch of the plot of this comedy. Mr. Od dington (Mr.W. Farren), an eccentric old bachelor, who prides himself upon his knowledge of human nature, and upon' 'never - being led or deceived, has three awasardtisrioefai,meahrartitaegreianbg yo lea u g ng. e ; Claribel (Miss Fortescue), lady; Mary (Miss P. Hor ton), a staid and steady young lady, and Elinor (Mrs. Edwin Yarrold), a sentimental young lady. Claribel and Mary have fortunes, Elinor has not a penny. Mr. Rashleigh (Mr. Hudson), a rattlins , young gentleman, is the suitor of Claribel, Mr. De Vere (Mr. H. Holl), a common-place young gentleman, is the suitor of Mary, and Mr. Brandon (Mr. Howe), the virtuous and inde pendent man of the play, is the suitor of Elinor. Bran don has teen brought up by a certain .Mr. Hardman (Mr. Rogers), who bestows upon him an excellent education, gives him a d om i c il e i n hi s own house, and supplies him with money; but Hardman is a hard, harsh tutor, who treats him with coldness, and never answers any inquiries as to who and what he is. Hardman has a daughter, Fanny (Miss Julia Ben nett), to whom he wishes to marry Brandon, but who, l andl ng Co., Jack h Spriggser father's M l r a .l l l 7 V e e r bs t a e rs a ), while she loves Brandon a s a b rot h er, pre f ers t h e ratt li ng, song singing, story-telling i Messrs. Q Oddington, to w h om D e V ere an d Rash chluesrhkatn o d. ol leigh have applied for his consent to their respective suits, warns them against rash matrimonial engage ments, inculcates on them that they should look before they leap, declares that he himself will never marry, that a widow is his favourite aversion, and finally binds them in 5,0001. each to marry within two months after they have made an offer to Claribel and to Mary. Brandon, when called upon by Oddington, declares his love for Elinor, but at the same time says that he will never marry her until, by his own exertions, he has made himself independent of the world. This ends the first act. In the second we find old Hardman plotting to bring about a match between his daughter and Brandon. He leaves them together, and they soon find out that each loves another—in love, as Fanny expresses, although as children brought up together, they are attached to each other as brother and sister. " As you are not in love with me," says Fanny, " you his Brandon refusal o may kiss me now ," an d B randon i mpr i nts a ki ss u p on h er forehead. Old H ar d man enters at t hi s momen t, accuses of an n m a a t r t r e y h mp et r to seduce his daughter, and on turns him out into the streets pennyless. lie, at the same time, hires Jack Spriggs to traduce Brandon's character, so as to drive him back again a peninent. We are then introduced to Mr. Oddington's house, and we find the two lovers making desperate lore to their respective mistresses, each after his own fashion. A certain Miss Brown, (Mrs. Glover), arrives from America with a letter of introduction to old Oddington, and, without leave asked, locates herself in his house. At first he is offended, but gradually he becomes amused with her excessive impudence, and ends by being excessively polite, and falling in love w ith her as desperately as an old fellow of 6 3 can fall in love . Spriggs drunk, but still he is sober enough to lib& comes in ve r y the character of Brandon so effectually as to convince every body, save Elinor, that he is a villain, and to procure his ex clusion from Oddington's house. Spriggs, on his return to Hardman, is rewarded with 5/. for his services—a re ward which he thinks miserably below his deserts ; and, at the same time, learns that Hardman's design is to force Brandon into a marriage with Fanny. Now, seeing that Spriggs himself has, with the consent of Fanny, long e ntertained the design of making her Mrs. Spriggs, it is not wonderful that he counterplots against old Hardman, and succeeds in carrying off Fanny. Re turn we to t heo ddlingtroenssp. respective e e lovers ievers h ; a an each become disgusted w ith their cho ice, and the ladi es are equally disgusted with their r tiv incident however arises, which prevents an open rupture. They discover Oddington gaged in a t en d er conversa- ' lion with Miss Brown, an en d actually entrap him into a promise of marriage. De Vere and Rashleigh are left alone, and each expresses his envy of the other's fate. The one complains that his lady's tongue is perpetually running like a mill-clack, the other that his is as dull as a duck-pond. Each fires up at these insults to their respective ladies, and a duel is the consequence, each combatant appearing as the champion of the affianced o f his tagonist. The l a di es are as disgusted with their choice as the gentle men, and would gladly change lovers if they could. Elinor is still faithful to Brandon, and old Oddington ho has into the house. SPriggsr w married Fa nn y, has more than co nnived at her i ntroducing him produces a deed, which proves that Brandon is the lawful owner of immense estates, and that Hardman who has levanted in consequence of divers piccadilloes, is only his guardian.

The United States Government having given orders to the army to " quarter on the enemy," the vigorous prosecution of the war, under such circumstances, will probably lead to a spedicr peace than could have been obtained under the very humane and liberal p)licy hitherto pursued. The Mexicans appear to have lo ,kEd upon American humanity as an evidence of cowardice. Our last advices from Monterey are to the 25th of Sep tember. Nothing new from California or New Mexico. MEXICAN AFFAIRS. Our latest advices from Vera Cruz are to the 15th of September. General Santa Anna's popularity was said to be diminishing, partly in consequence of his non-ap pearance at the city of Mexico ; great efforts were making, however, by his friends in the Cabinet, to push on the war, and thirty thousand men have been called for, to be drafted from the Central States. Munitions •of war are admitted free of duty, and the Roman Catholic Church of Mexico is called on to pour out its immense treasures in punishing the perfidious Americans. It is believed by some that Santa Anna desires to have the banditti of his native country killed off in this war ; and thus rid Mexico of the turbulent and licentious rabble of which her army has been composed. The Mexican army being annihilated, or driven into obscurity by popular contempt, for its unsuccessful de fence of the country, Santa Anna may have no difficulty in establishing a good Government, which shall seek to find its chief support in the hearts of the people, who will become the national militia—citizens in peace, sol diers in war. AMERICAN MARKETS. Flour has slightly receded in price since the last steamer, closing at a fraction under $5 50 per barrel, for good Western Canal. Other bread stuffs have not varied much from the prices current at the date of our last. The quantity of wheat and flour received this year through the New York canals, is equal to 717,116 barrels of flour over the quantity received in 1845. The Cotton market is quite unanimated, partly in consequence of the non-arrival of the steamer Great Britain. Serious apprehensions are entertained for the fate of that fine vessel, which was due at New York on the Bth October. MONEY MARKET. The five per cent, loan which the Government agent was supposed to have negotiated with Brown, Brothers and Co., at the sailing fir thelaat steamer, was not taken by that house. Nor would the New York and Boston banks take the loan at less than six per cent. Treasury notes, bearing interest at five per cent., will probably be issued as the readiest mode of obtaining the means of carrying en, thEf war, until the meeting of Congres`s. Money is worth_seven per cent. in Wall-street, on, good paper. The banks loan at six per cent. on sixty day bills. - - DISPATCHES FROM MAJOR-GENERAL Z. TAYLOR, RECEIVED AT THE WAR-OFFICE. Washington, Oct. 11, 1846. (No. 89). Headquarters Army of Occupation. Camp before Monterey, Sept. 22, 1846. Sir,—l have the honour to report that the troops under my command, including the mounted volunteers from Texas, marched from Marin on the 18th, and en camped before Monterey on the 19th instant. It was immediately discovered that the enemy occupied the town in force, and had added greatly to its strength by fortifying the approaches and commanding heights. A close reconnoissance was made the same evening by the officers of engineers on both flanks of the town, and it was determined, from the information procured, to oc cupy the Saltillo road in rear of the town, carrying, ifprac ticable, the several fortified eminences in that direction. The second division of regular troops and a portion of Colonel Hays' reAiment of mounted volunteers was accordingly detached under Brigadier-General Worth on this service, at noon on the 20th. A ten inch mortar and two twenty-four pounder howit zers were placed in battery during the night to play upon the citadel and town. At seven o'clock these guns opened and continued a deliberate fire, which was returned. To create a still further diversion in fa vour of General Worth's movement, the remainder of the force, except a camp guard, was displayed around the centre and left of the town. The infantry and one battery of the Ist division made a strong demonstration on the left, and soon became so closely engaged that I moved forward the volunteer division under Major Gen. Butler to its support, leaving one battalion (Ist Ken tucky) to cover the mortar battery. A close contest then ensued, which resulted in the capture of one strong battery of four guns, which with some adjacent defences our troops now occupy. A garrison was left to occupy this position, and the remainder of the force returned to camp. In the meantime General Worth had engaged the enemy early in the morning, and defeated him with considerable loss. In the course of the day two of the batteries in rear of the town were carried by storming parties of the second division, and a third was carried this morning at dawn of day. The Bishop's Palace occupied the only remaining height in rear of the town, and is completely commanded by the works al ready carried. Gen. Worth's division occupies the Sal tillo road, and cuts off all succour or support from the interior. I must reserve a more minute report of the important operations of yesterday until those of the dif ferent Commanders are rendered, and also until a topo graphical sketch of the country can be prepared. I regret to report that our successes have not been ob tained without severe loss, to be attributed in a good measure to the ardour of the troops in pressing forward. No returns of killed and wounded have yet been received, nor is it known what corps of General Worth's division have suffered most. In the other portion of the army the Ist, 3rd and 4th regiments of infantry and regiment of Tennessee volunteers have sustained the greatest loss. The following is believed to be an accurate list of the officers killed and wounded : KILLED. 2d Infantry—Brevet Ist Lieutenant J. S. Woods, (serving with Ist infantry.) 3cl Infantry—Captain L. N.
