FROM THE ARMY

The loss Of life on our part, in the late
battle at Monterey is supposed 20 be much
greater than was at FIRST anticipated A
correspondent of the Delta estimates the
American loss at 600, and Of the Mexicans
at 1900. The principal loss fell upon the
Tennessee and Mississippi Regiments aud
Sd and 4th infantry. They were forced
TO fight their way inch BY inch into the
city over the dead bodies Of their con-
rades. In addition to tho Mexican force,
they had TO contend with the whole Fopu-
lalion Of the city who fired upon them from
the tops Of the hOnses, doors and windows.
II is stated that after driving the MexicaBs
into their houses they picked holes in the
walls and fired upon Them. They bad
made their way into the very heart Of the
enemy, andifIhe battle bod continued one

LATEST FROM EUROPE.

The steamer Hibernia arrived at Boston
on the morning of the Sd instant. She
brings intelligence of an advance in the
Cotton Market of farIhing, and brisk
markets spectators and the trade both
operating largely. The hostility of the
English Government and people Of Spain
10 the marriage Of Lonis Philippe's Young
est son TO the sister of the Spanish Queen,
caused the celebration Of the nuptlals TO
be postponed for the present, perhaps for
ever. II is supposed that this may break
up the friendly relations now existing be.
tween the governments Of England and
France.
The total failure OF the potato crop mp
pears to be sad reality. Every where
in Ireland and in The greatest part OF the
British Island The potato fields are STROUD
ed with the dark nantes Of the plague.
The vegetable has turned into putrid
matter, which even the hogs will not de,
YOUR.
From the continent Of Europe, inc!ud.F
ing Russia, we have dismal accounts OF
the progress Of the blight. The future
use Of the potato, as All article of food, is
now almos. abandoned.
Among the more important and inter
esting items Of commercial news brought
out bv the steamship Hiberna, is the re,
port Of the cotton market
The advices per the Caledonia arrived
at Liverpool on the evening OF the 18th of
September, and were delivered early on
the following morning.
No sooner had the contents become
known than the cotton market underwent
a great change. Spectators commenced
te operate to an unusual degree.
The trade, dreading The realization of
the unfavorable conjeclures respecting the
Forthcoming crop which the letters and
newspapers accounts from the United
States had ventured 10 send forth, were
induced TO add to their stocks.
In England The proverbial fckleness
Of the climate has sustained its character
in battling speculation. The yield of
wheat is better this year in the southern
parts Of the kingdom. Upon the whole
the WELD is hardly better in lS46 than in
the precious year.
The English markets for foreign and
colonial produce have lately assumed
more animated and healthy appearance.
The Liverpool cotton market, from day
10 day since the 14fh, has continued active
and spirited, and the sales Of the six days
may be stated about $4,000 bales, with an
advance Of Id. per ID. Price9pf Amer
can descriptions has experienced a rise.
Holders have been enabled to obtain
former rates, but lower descriptions, which /
are plentiful, have receded IN value.
The sales Of cotton in Liverpool on the 1
l4th September were enormous, amount 1
ing 70 10 less than 10000 bales, Of which
spectators took 10000 American.
