LATEST FROM MEXICO.

From the New Orleans Courier, of March 2s.
By the Atlantic arrived last evening
from Metamoras, whence she sailed on
the Goth instant, we learn from a pas
senger that the Mexican army, under
the command Of Gen. NICHOLAS BRA
vo, consisting of about 3, 800 men, of all
arms, was at that place, and had COM
menced previous to the sailing of the
A. crossing the camp equipagc, and
the general opinion was, that the army
would commence marching about the
LIST of March. 1t had been abundant
ly provided with provisions up to that
period, for the first time since they had
been in Metamoras, by the arrival of
vessels in succession from this port,
New Orleans.
A contract has been entered into by
the Government of Mexico with a
merchant for a loan of one and a half
million Of dollars, advanced by install
ments of $3.50, 900 monthly, common
cling on the LIST of March the first in
stalment of which had been received s.
distributed among the troops and it
was the general opinion that this con-
tract would be complied with, the Go
vernment, having mortgaged the Gus
tom-houses at Metamoras and Tampi-
CO for the payment of the amount Dor
rowed. A Mexican officer of some
rank and intelligence informed the gen.
tleman who gave us this information,
that it would be the first object of the
army to occupy Bexar, GoIiad, and
Campano, which he described as the
keys to Texas and having possession
ofthose places, the operations ofthe ar
my would secure points d'appui where
they might conduct their operations at
leisure, whilst they would by this
means hold the Texan army in check.
twas also announced that General
Bravo had been instructed to propose
terms of reconciliation to the Texans,
granting whatever they may demand,
short of independence or dismember-
ment.
A portion Of the prisoners who have
been for some time incarcerated in the
dungeons of Metamoras, thirteen in
number, arrived in the A. Their names
are s. S; Cortes, of Philadelphia, Bry-
ant, of Texas /; Henry Craig, of New
Jersey; G. Smith, of New York Benz
ton of Ohio, Putnam, of Kentucky;
Francis, of Ohio; Langaman, of Hol-
land; and the residue, Messrs. Jonas
Hall, Ker, Capland, and others, will
probably leave for this port in the Ca
manche.

To the Koters Of Hampshire County.
At the solicitation of my friends of
both parties, have determined on be-
ing candidate for scat in the next
House of Delegates of Virginia. Born
and raised in your County, known to
you all, it is useless for me to say what
my political opinions are, for you all
know that have always been an I'm
wavering Democratic Republican of
the Jeffersonian School. se
I, therefore, think it only necessary
on the present occasion to state, that in
becoming a candidate for your sutfra-
ges at the approaching election, I in
tend to fish on my own hook +; and if it
should be your good pleasure to elect
me, pledge myselfto you all that you
shall ever find me true to my princi-
Piles. Havinga contract on the North
Western Turnpike Road, which daily
requires my personal attendance, /
hope my fellow-cihzens will excuse
me if should not be able to visit them
generally, which l would do with plea
sure, if my business would permit.
Therefore, I must rely on my friends
aiding me in this contest.
will furtherstate to the people, that
Ihave understood, it has already been
said that I was brought out by the
Wings of Romney, which positively

Fatal Steam Boat .Accsdeat.--A
frightful accident occurred on the ILL
nois river on the 18th ult., about five
miles from its mouth. The steamboat
Tiskilwa, descending that river with a
full cargo of pork, was run down by
the steamboat Wisconsin, and sunk in
about two minutes. Several estimates
are given of the number of the lives
lost, the lowest fixing the number at Z,
and the highest at ID or Id. An entire
family returning to Kentucky conipos-
ed portion of the sufferers, but we
have not been able to learn the names
of any ofthem. The cargo was a val
liable one, and was covered by an open
policy. The boat was also insured.
A letter from person who was on
board at the time, to the editor of the
Wheeling Times, speaks of the scene as
appalling beyond description. The
writer states that twelve Of the cabin
passengers are certainly drowned, and
probably more, as the register is lost,
and that nearly all the deck passengers
are missing.
The St. Louis Republican states, that
some censure is attached to the captain
Of the Wisconsin, in relation to the af-
fair, and to his subsequent conduct to-
wards the passengers:
The fatal results which often occur
from the carelessness, incapacity or
malice of those who have the charge
of the steamboats, on the western wa
tiers, demand most rigid scrutiny, and
we do hope that the proper Authorities
will investigate the subject thorough
ly. There can be no question, that the
owners of steamboats, are liable, at law,
for all accidents that may occur from
the misconduct of their agents, and hea-
Wy damages would doubtless tend to
correct the evil.-BaH. Ctron.
