Mexican officers should be allowed to march out with
their side arms; that the cavalry and infantry be allowed
to march out with their arms and accoutrements; that
the artillery should be allowed to march out with one
battery of six pieces and twenty-one rounds of ammu-
nition ; that all other munitions of war and supplies should
be turned over to a board of American officers appointed
to receive them; that the Mexican army should be
allowed seven days to evacuate the city, and that the
American troops should not oc-!upy it until evacuated ;
that the cathedral, fort, or citadel, should be evacuated
at ten a.m. next day, the 25th ; the Mexicans then march-
ing out, the American garrison marching in ; that the
Mexicans should be allowed to salute their flag whe❑
hauled down ; that there should 19~ an armistice of eight

line running from the Ranconada throtigh Linart:s and

San FerandO.
h is said the American loss is 300 killed and 200
wounded, and that the Mexicans lost about 500. The
New York Herald says—" It was one of 'the most une-

thousand Mexicans in houses and under cover, against
six thousand Americans., fighting in the open streets."

There is nothing new from California Or New Mexico

MEXlCo.—Thelatest advices from Vera Cruz are to
the I.Oth September. General Santa Anna's popularity
was said to be diminishing, partly in consequence of his
non-appearance 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. Muni-
tions of war are admitted free of duty, sad the Roman
Catholic Church of Mexico is called on to pour out its
immense treasures in punislaimg the perfidious Americans.
It is believed by some, says the American Sun, that Santa
Anna desires to have the band,tti of his native country

killed off in this war, and thus rid Mexico of the turbu-
lent and licentious rabble of which her army has been

composed

UNITED STATES.—After a session of one hundred and
thirty-one days, the State Convention have passed, by a
majority of 104 to 6, a new Constitution for the state of
New York, but of which we can give nu account this
week.

COMMERCIAL.—NEW YORK, OCTOBER 15.—There has
been a fair demand for foreign exchange for this packet,
notwithstanding which quotations for sterling have slightly
declined. We now quote prime hills on London at Bto
Si per cent, premium • on Paris at sf. 314 to sf. 30.
Owing to the continued mild open weather, considered
favourable t i the picking of the new crop of cotton, com-
bined with the unexpected delay of the Great Britain,
prices have been less firm since the sailing of the Great
Western, with a falling off in some descriptions of Upland
of fully id. per lb. The sales, also, within the past week,
have been very limited. Flour has slightly receded in
price since the last steamer, closing at a fraction under 5
dollars 50 cents 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
4845. FREIGHTS.—TO Liverpool—Flour, 3s. 3d. to 3s.
6d. ; grain, 104 d. to 11d. ; cotton, nominal. London—
Flour, 3s. 9d. to 45.; grain, 1141. to 12d. ; tobacco, 455.;
turpentine, 4s. to 4s. 6d. Havre—Flour, 80c. ; grain,
20c.; cotton, ie. to sc. per lb.

GRAlN.—Wheat is in fair request for shipment ; but
owieg to the dullness of flower, lower prices are offered
by millers. The transactions include 1,000 bushels in-
inferior Siuthern for milling, at 80 cents ; and for ex-
port, 6,000 white Genessee, dols. 1,20 ; and 8,000 mixed
western, dols. 1,03 to dols 1,30, cash. Northern rye is in
demand, but the market is heavy, and prices somewhat
lower ; the sales reach 45,000 bushels, chiefly for export,
at 79 to 81 per cents. A lot of 2,000 bushels prime four-
rowed barley sold yesterday for malting, at 6.34, cents.
Northern oats have declined to 35 to 37 cents ' • shipments
to the extent of 50,000 bushels (purchased in the interior)
we understand, are about being made to England. 12,000
bushels canal were purchased on Monday for export to
London, on private terms. Corn, on Saturday last, was
very heavy, and the market entirely unsettled, with sales
of 15,000 bushes, port for export, at 65} to 72 cents. for
mixed western and yellow northern and 75 cents for
southern white ; since then there has been more steadi-
ness, and the supply, too, is less abundant ; the transac-
tions Monday and yesterday consist of 28,500 bushels, at
68 to 70 cents for mixed and yellow western and northern
and 72 to 73 for Jersey yellow, all weight. At Philadel-
phia, 12,000 bushels yellow have been purchased at 70
cents ; and at Boston, 22,000 bushels, white, 80, weight,
both for export from those port. Black-eyed peas of the
new crop, have been received, and are held at 2,50.
PROVISIONS.—On Saturday last purchases of Ohio
mess-pork were made, supposed for export to England,
variously estimated from 3,000 brls. to 5,000 brls. at dols.
10,50 ; a small lot was subsequently sold at the same price.
but the market closed heavily at dols. 10,374 ; indeed 500
brls. were offered at 61 cents less without finding a buyer.
In prime, there has been nothing of importance done ; we
quote it 9,25 to 9,37;. Beef is steady, with a fair demand
for home consumption, for home use only, at our quota-
tions. Butter arrives rather more freely, and sales are
less readily made at previous rates. Cheese is in quick
request for export, selling mostly on arrival at 7 to 71
cents for good in boxes.

A letter of the 20th, from Paris, states that such is the
demand for Irish labourers on French lines, that they can
earn from sf. to 6f. a-day, while the native wotkmenonly
receive from 3f. to 31f.
A romantic couple were married on the 2nd of Septein-
ber,7by torchlight, on the summit of the Natural Bridge
of Virginia. There were nine groomsmen, all bearing
torches, and nine bridemaids clad in white.
A Goo]) DAY'S WoRK.—A correspondent of the
Hart ford Courant gives an account of a wedding which he
attended in Alabama, the bridegroom of which had done
his courting. found the `Squi-re, invited the company, rode
42 miles for the license, was married, and rode 15 miles
for the whiskey, in 12 hours.—Ameriean Paper.
luttAnim PASHA.—No sooner did this prince reach
his own dominions than he decided on sending two of his
sons to England to acquire a knowledge,of the habits and
lanznace of the people, with a view of infusing into Egypt
the spirit of English civilisation. These youths, who are

most intelligent, have been placed under the care of Dr.
fieldentnaier, president of the Pestalozzian school, at
Worksop.
THE INUNDATIONS IN FRANCE.—The Journal des
Debate states " that the list of departments laid waste by
the late inundations still increases, and every day an-

no accounts have previously been rece►ved. Nevertheless,
the waters of the Loire are decreasing in every direction,
and the last rains have not added to the inundations.

Three mails from Marseilles, which had been retarded,
had succeeded in reaching Paris on Monday afternoon,
the roads in the department of the Loire having become

ARISTOCRACY OF THE SKlN.—Robert, a young man,
the brother of the Governor of the African colony of Li-
beria, composed of free negroes exported from America,
quitted the colony to go to Pittsfield, Massachusetts, in
order to acquire the knowledge necessary to the exercise
