Our readers VIII ind by the following
letter from the Secretary of War 10 Col.
Stevenson of New York, that the Gov
ernment have definite designs in relation
TO the Mexican Provinces, and that con-
guest is the object aimed at. The letter
was laid before Congress in obedience to
some call for information,
War Department, June 26, 1916.
Sir:-The President having determin-
cd to send a regiment of Volunteers a.
round Cape Horn to the Pacific, to be en-
ployed in prosecuting hosfiiities to some
province of Mexico, probably in Upper
California, has authorized me to say, that
if YOU viii organize one on the conditions
hereinafter specified, and tender It's servi-
ces, il will be accepted. 1t is proper il
should be done with the consent of the
Governor of New York. The President
expects, and indeed requires, that great
care should be taken TO have it composed
of suitable persons-I mean of good hab-
its-as far as practicable. Of various pur-
suits, AND SUCH As WOULD DE LIKELY
TO REMAIN AT THE END OF THE WAR, Ell
TIER IN OREGON, OR IN ANY OTHER TER
RIToRY IN THAT REGION OF THE GLOBE,
WHICH MAY THEN be part Of the United
States.
The act of the 18th Of May last au-
thorizes the acceptance Of volunteers for
twelve months, or during the war with
Mexico. The condition of the accept
aHce in this case must be a tender OF SER
vice during the war, aod it must be expli-
city understood that they may be dis
charged without a claim of returning
home, wherever they may be serving at
the termination of the war, provided it is
in the THEN territory Of the United States,
or may be taken to the nearest or most
convenient territory belonging TO the Uni
ted States, and there-discharged.
The men must be apprised that their
term of service is for the war; that they
are to be discharged as above specified,
and that they aIe to be employed on a
distant service. IT Is, HOWEVER VERY
DESIRABLE THAT IT SHOULD NOT BE PUB
LICLY KNOWN OR PROCLAIMED THAT THEY
ARE TO GO To ANY PARTICULAR PLACE
On this point great caution is enjoined.-
The communication to the officers and
men must 90 SO far as TO remove all just
grounds of complaint that they have been
deceived in the nature and the place of the
service.
It is expected that the regiment viii be
in readiness to embark as early as the first
of August next, if practicable steps will
be Immediately taken to provide for trans
portation.
Very respectfully, your ob'tserv't.

Saturday we received letter from a
Captain of Infantry at Reynosa, in which
he says the high waters continue to in
crease, and that Camargo has been Sc
verely injured by the overflow, if not des-
troyed. Its situation is three miles from
the Rio Grande, on the San Juan river,
and ii was reported at Reynosa that but
three houses had been left, but this is not
credited here; there is no doubt. however,
but that the place has suffered dreadfully.
About Reynosa all the fields on the river
have been destroyed. and many a cabin
swept away, but the town, being on a
high mound, is and viii be unscathed.
A steamer started for Camargo day
or two since, and another leaves this E.
vening fer the same place. Three COM
panies of The 9Th Infantry, en- route for
that place, reached Reynosa on the 9Th,
and the balance of the reg ment were

NEWS FROM OREGON.

Two gentlemen, on their return from
Oregon arrived in this city yesterday
One Of them. Mr.. Palmer, belongs to In
diana; the other, Mr.. Smith, is from
Ohio.
These gentlemen, in company with
some Gfteea others, left Oregon City on
the 9th Of March, and DR.. Whitman S
missionary establishment on the WalIa-
walla river, on the l4th of April. This
missionary establishment is represented
as in aourishing condition, and enjoy
ing the confidence Of the Indians.
Oregon City contains population Of
about eight h4lndrcd. 1t contains two
churches, one a Methodist and the other
a Catholic Church-two -four mills and
three saw mills. Oregon City is now
the residence of DR.. Mclaughlin, who
has resigned his post in the Hudson Bay
Company and is actively employed in
measures for the improvement of the ter
ritory. The canal around the Walla-
mene Falls for the erection of which a
bill passed the Oregon Legislature last
year, it is now proposed to convert into a
railroad and it is expected that this will
be done in year or two.
The territory of Oregon itself is rep
resented to contain population Of about
1000, all prosperously employed, and
those who went TO that country last year
are well satisfied with their situatien.-
The intercourse between the Hudson
Bay Company and the Americans was of
very friendly character. 1t is the O.
pinon that the treaty arrangement will
not be satisfactory to the Americans, but
the Hudson Bay Company seem to have
anticipated very accurately the boundary
which has been established. The coun-
try North of the Columbia, which has
been generally represented as of very
poor and indifferent quality, is not so
regarded by our informapt. tits suscep-
tible of cultivation, and is cultivated to a
very considerable extent by the Hudson
Bay Company, who find a market for
wheat, at $3.50 per bushel in the Russian
possessions.
This party pursued the usual route, re-
turning home. II is broadly marked
wagon road, some OF the difficulties of
which are soon to be obviated by contem-
plated Improvements in the region of the
Cascade mountains.
Mr.. Smith gives most melancholy
account Of the progress and suflerings of
the ST. Joseph's company Of emigrants,
which left in lS45, under the pilotage of
Mr. Meek. The company lost tIeir way
and endured incredible hardships. They
were out forty days longer than usual,
and before their arrival at the Dallas of
the Columbia, some seventy-fivc Of the
company had died. A short supply Of
provisions. and that Of the worst quality
very poor cattie-produccd what was
called the scamp fever" Frequently,
too, they were twenty-lour honFs without
water for the children or tie sick.

Later from the seat orxYar.

We have little later news from the
Rio Grandc, brought to New Orleans by
the Steamer Alabama, which sailed from
Brasos on the 18th ult, Capt. Myers,
of the Army, Capt. Mckenzie, and Lieut.,
Kelley, together with ll0 volunteers, all
on the sick list came passengers. We
copy the subjoined items from the New
Orleans papers:
The Trop;c says: "Wc are informed
by gentleman just from the seat of War
that Gen. Taylor, is gradually sending
his troops into the interior of Mexico,
showing along one regiment after another,
forming the line that is to march TO Mon
tercy. The stores of the army are trans
ported from the Brasos to Rio Grande in
wagons, and then shipped on board OF
small steamboats, to Matamoras, Reynosa,
and Camargo-the bar at the mouth oi
the Rio Grande being so bad that Colonel
Whiting will not permit United States
boats TO 90 in or out to the Brasos to
load.
"Major Thomas has been superseded
as Quarternaster at Brasos Santiago by
Major McRae.
''The British brig of-war Rose is of
the mouth of the Rio Grande. Capt. Per
~, the commander, started from Point
Isabel with dispatches for General Tay-
lor. What is in those despatches?)-
The roads being by him considered i'm
passable, he sent them forward by Mr..
Turner, the Captain going back to his
ship.
.'Fort Brown, it is stated, has four feet
of water in It's interior, the Bio Grande is
so high.
.'Mr. Shatzell having had no orders from
Washington to the contrary, has resum-
ed his office of American Consul at Mata-
moras.
"Gen. Taylor, it is said, is much wor-
ried by the annoyances Of forwarding
troops, and being perplexed with getting
supplies
The Times saws: ''We learn that the
court martial on Capt. Tho II ;ermina-
led on the 18th ultimo, and the general
impression is that he has been acquitted.
The proceedings, however, viii not be
made public until they have been
approved and confirmed by the President
at Washington. One passage of his re-
ported defence had been commented on
with admiration by all ia the camp al
Matamoras. He said that. in the per-
iormance of the act for which he was tri-
ed-rasilness or precipitancy. we believe
he did not see the numbers Of the ene-
my: all he saw was the Mexican flag wa
wing over American soil, and he was viii
ling to risk his own life in the attempt to
cut il down."
