AMERICAN NEWS.

(EXPRESS PROM LIVERPOOL.)
LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY MORNING.
The British and North American Mail Steam-ship
Caledonia, Captain Lott, entered the Mersey this
morning at five o'clock, bringing New York papers
to the 17th, Boston to the 18th, and Halifa.x to the
20th. The Caledonia has encountered a constant suc-
cession of easterly winds. She brings 35 passengers.
The wife of the President of the U lifted States died
on the 12th inst., after a long and severe illness, which
has been the source of deep and depressing anxiety
to him ever since his accession to power. She came
to Washington in a state of ill-health sufficient to have
warranted her being left at her residence at Williams-
burg, even though a painful separation, with but few
opportunities of meeting, would have been the con-
sequence. Since she came to the white house she has
never seen company at all, being for the most part
confined to her chamber.
Mrs. Tyler was the daughter of Robert Christian,
of the county of New Kent, Virginia, who enjoyed,
during a long life the confidence and esteem of all
who knew him, and served for many years as a Mem-
ber of the Virginia Legislature. She was born on
the 13th day of November, 1790—was married to the
President on the 29th March, 1813—became a mem-
ber of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in which she
was baptised in early infancy—and died in the 52d
year of her age. Her end was quiet and tranquil,
like one falling from weariness into profound slumbers
exhibiting a mind at rest with itself, and a heart of
virtue. Indeed, in life, she was, in every respect, as
has been most truly remarked in the Intelligencer—
" A wife—a mother and a Christian—loving and con-
fiding to her husband—gentle and affectionate to her
children—kind and charitable. to the needy and the
afflicted." In death she sleeps the sleep of the
righteous and the beloved of Heaven.
The President, after paying the last sad rites to her
remains, will, we learn, pass a few days with his
daughter, Mrs. Semple, in the county of New Kent,
and then take up his abode at the Rip-Raps for the
purpose of seclusion and repose. .
Mr. Roberts, the collector of the port of Philadel-
phia, is removed, and Mr. Thomas S. Smith, of that
city, is appointed his successor.
(From the New Orleans Picayune of the 4th inst.)..
TExAs.—The steam-ship Merchant arrived here
yesterday from Galveston. She has Texas papers to
the 29th ult. The news is not important. The crops
are good—the times are dull—the war cry is for the
present hushed, and money is confoundedly scarce.
Col. M'Leod, with the remainder of the Santa Fe
prisoners, arrived at Galveston on Sunday, the 21st
ult., having been out ten days from Vera Cruz.
Fourteen of the men died with the black vomit at
Vera Cruz, after their liberation, three (none of them
American) joined the Mexican service, and Capt.
Holliday died on the passage, leaving, besides those
who had previously died or been liberated; and some
who design going direct to. the United States, the
number of 183.
It is thought by many in Texas, that through the
joint interposition of the agents of the United States
and British Governments, a treaty of peace may be
agreed on between Texas and Mexico, and that a
period may be thus put to the further effusion of blood.
WHEAT CROP.—A good deal of wheat in Western
New York has been threshed and brought to market;
and we are warranted in saying that, the crop, though
abundant and in general in good order, has not equalled
the early expectations and calculation bir, one quar-
ter, in many cases by one-third less. 2uch of the
wheat, likewise, which has been brought to Ro-
chester, has evidently been damaged by being cut in
too green a state, and afterward not sufficientlyripened
or dried. This is a 'very serious matter. Early
cut wheat will undoubtedly make more and sweeter
flour than that which stands too long, and will yield'
more weight of crop, but this pre-supposes that it is
not cut too early, and in the next place, that it is
most thoroughly made in the sheaf or stook. In
some places the wheat suffered from rust, and in refer-
ence to the inquiry- respecting the use of rusted straw,
one of the best farmers in the State expresses his ex-
perience that cattle will not eat much of it, and his
conviction that what they do eat will injure them.—
