LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THIS DAY, Foua 'oCLoot.
The packet-ship Cambridge, Capt. Peabody, arrived
at Liverpool vesterday, with one day's later dates
from New York. Letters from Washington, of June
14, intimated the intention of the president to begin
an excursion to the northward. It was understood
that the legislature of New Hampshire had passed re-
solutions Inviting him to receive the hospitality of
the state. The triumph of the democratic party in
the judicial elections of the state of New York is
placed beyond a doubt, though all the returns had not
yet been received. In commercial affairs there was
little change. The grain crops in the Union, it is
stated, promised to be so redundant, that the prices of
breadstuffs would be entirely dependent on the advices
from Europe ; the outward steamer of the 4th June
was,therekre, anxiously looked for. Quotations for cot-
ton
were not higher, and were not expected to advance
so long as the demand for breadatuffs continued.
The New Orleans money-market was still suffering,
on the 4th of June, from the pressure produced by
the financial operations of government. The U.S.
ship Macedonian, laden with breadatuffs for Ireland,
had dropped down to the quarantine station, and was
to sail for Cork as soon as her 'complement of men
was completed. Western Canal flour was in fair
demand. Provisions steady. Freights to Liverpool :
Cotton, 3-16 d. per lb.; flour and turpentine, 3s. 6d.
to 4s. per barrel • grain, lid. to 12d. per bushel.
Exchange: Many Sales at .51, and a fewat 6i. Cotton,
nothing doing. Our files furnish no additional news
from Mexico, but some further details are given in
the New York Erprese which we append:
The enemy were fortifying Rio Frio, and rapidly progress-
ing with the fortifications. An English courier bad ar-
rived at Vera Cruz, who said, positively, that 20,000
Mexicans were engaged oa the works ; but another account
reduces the number to 12,000. Captain Lauma estimated
the total number of effective men that Gen. Scott can con-
centrate at Puebla at 5,600, independent of those re-
cently arrived. General Alvarez is said to have 10,000
men in the vicinity of the capital. Verbal accounts, which
are not credited, report positively the election of Herrera ;
others, that he had declined ; that it was his intention to
employ himself in making peace, and had appointed Valencia
commander-in-chief, and ordered the arrest of Santa Anna
and Canalizo. The British courier mentioned that when he
left the capital, Herrera had not been elected, but Santa
Anna continued to enjoy the title with less discredit than re-
ported. The same courier contradicted positively the rumour
that a large portion of General Worth's force had been cut
off at Puebla ; and states that General Scott was at Puebla,
and that Santa Anna was elected president on the 15th of
May, but declined serving. Herrera was the neat prominent
Presidential candidate, and a new election would take place
on the sth inst. Gen. Bravo had raigned the post of nom-
roanderin.chief. The seat of government had been re-
moved to a small place south of the capital. The city is in a
beautiful state of confusion.

Since the foregoing was written, we have accounts
of the arrival of the Quebec, New York packet-ship,
of the London line, bringing dates of the 17th ult.,
They afford, however, no positive information beyond
Idiot was brought by the Cambridge. There are said
to be letters with news of a later date from Mexico,
by this arrival; but, if so, the particulars have not
transpired. The exchange on London at New York
ens gsoted 1051 to 6i.
