NEW ORLEANS, MAT 22.

Every day or two produces its news. We now learn
that the rancheros, or guerillas, bad been very trouble-
some near Vera Cruz; two hundred of them had been
followed by Walker and his rifles, and four killed; six
United States dragoons had been killed by there people
on tne previous day. The Mexican Congress had re-
fused the mediation of England by a vote of 44
to 33. The returned officers of volunteers in this
city tell me that, in their opinion, there is no chance
of peace—not even if the capital be taken; but
they think there will be no more pitched battles. Four
of the states north of Mexico talk of separating and be-
coming a new republic wider our protection, but per-
haps this report is but a weak invention of the enemy.
The American officers, who are prisoners is Mexico, are
reported to br. well treated ; but the capital and Go-
vernment are fall of confusion, and will not send Santa
Anna a dollar, though he tells them that he has rallied
7,000 men at Orizaba. The U. S. fleet is spread along
the Gulf shores to prevent the escape of Santa Anna by
sea, if he should attempt it. Everything is in confusion

turn from General Scott's army is seven. The Illinois
regiment brings home less than one-half its men. The
division of the army to march on Puebla and Mexico,
cannot now reach 6,000 men. Will General Scot) march
right straight on to the Halls of Montezuma, or will he
nit ? That is the question. From all that I can hear
and read, I think he will go to Puebla, and wait there
for reinforcements. A great many of the returned vo
lunteers are very sick—hospitals here and at Pensucola
full of " discharged on account of sickness."

THE BRAZIL MAIL.

FALMOUTH, JUNE 13.

Her Majesty's packet Swift, Lieutenant Long,
arrived last night from the Brazils, having left Rio
de Janeiro on the 13th of April, Bahia on the 20th
of April, and Pernambuco on the Ist of May. She
brings on freight about 10,0001., and the following
passengers, via.:—Lord A. Beauclerk, late of her
Majesty's ship Curacoa ; Captain Thompson, late of
Curaqoa ; Captain Proctor, late of Harpy, Mr. and
Mrs. Hapley, Mr. Sanville, Mr. D. Last, Mr. De
Castro, Mr. Plowes, Mr. Finnie, Mr. Murray, Mr.
Ramsden, Royal Navy ; also Dr. Coates, left at
Pernambuco ill. Her Majesty's steamer Rattler,
having on board Lord Howden, had arrived at Bahia,
and sailed for Rio de la Plata on the 26th April. The
Swift left at Rio de Janeiro the Crescent, Curacoa,
and Firebrand. The Griffin steamer, with the River
Plate mails, had arrived at Rio on the gth of April.
The news by this packet has been anticipated by the
recent arrival of her Majesty's brig Frolic. The ex-
change at Rio was 28/, and at Bahia 28i. The want
of tonnage appears to have increased, and 555. to 70s.
had been obtained for the Channel. Coffee had ad-
vanced a little in the higher qualities, and although
the stock was very large (45,000 bags), the propor-
tion of these qualities was very small. 'The present
quotations are :—Superior, 2 reis 950 milreis to 3 reis
50 milreis ; good first, 2 reis 800 milreis to 2 reis
850 milreis ; good seconds, 2 reis 400 milreis to 2
reis 500 milreis ; Sugars are quiet—white, 300 reis
brown, 2 reis 100 milreis to 2 reis 200 milreis per
arroba. Hides had been bought up for the Ameri-
can market at 170 reis per lb., and the stock was re-
duced to 7,000. Government stock had remained
firm, notwithstanding considerable sales for foreign
account (chiefly English), &c., at 82i and 82/ per
, cent.

Since the departure of the Penguin steam-packet,
about 200,0001. has been done ; the transactions of

the last week being at the rate of 28} I, 1, and lastly
at 28, with more money at 281. than bills.
The news from the Emperor was very satisfactory ;
he was diverting himself by gratifying his subjects
who approach him. He was expected to return in a
week. The Empress was going on well.

GRIM) REVIEW OP TROOPS IN HYDE•PARK......
To-morrow morning, should weather and other circumstances
permit, there will be a grand review of troops in Hyde-park,
before his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke of Russia and
other distinguished foreigners at present in this country. It
is intended to bring as many troops together as the conve-
nience of the service will afford. An order was issued from
the Horse Guards on Friday night, calling for a return of the
number of troops that may be available for the occasion.

[ADVERTISEMENT ]-IferOantile Life.—lt has been fa-
marked by intelligent foreigners, that oases of baldness prevail greatly
in this country, and as a cause, that the unwearied application to com-
mercial pursuits contributes largely to this result. Be this as it may,
nowhere is a protective and restorative preparation more needed ;
and probably there is no European people to whom artificial appli
anees have been so eminently serviceable. The numerous cases of
recovery of the hair after having fallen off, or partial baldness, are
truly astonishing. The testimonials of the efficacy of Oldridge's Balm
of Columbia place its power and virtues beyond all doubt or cavil :
