WHERE DO ALL THE Volunteers COME
FROM? We have been footing up the number
of volunteers, says the st. Louis Republican,
who have been taken from this city and the
immediate vicinity for the Mexican war. The
whole number, including the St. Louis Legi.
on, IS about 1900. THIS does not include sew
eral hundred who have attached themselves in
other capacities than as volunteers OF the
Legion, less than 600 have returned. There
is therefore, yet absent from the city at least
1900 men, and yet they are scarcely missee

LATEST FROM THE Mormon WAR; Bal
tie Expected. The St. Louis Republican, of
the Ith inst, has the following intelligence
from Nauvoo and its vicinity:
BY the arrival. yesterday morning, of the
steamer Ocean Wave, we have received intel
ligence from the Anti-Mormon encampment,
which was still about twelve miles from Nau-
VOC, to Tuesday morning. The armed posse
then consisted of about 1900 men, with six
pound cannon, and one twenty-tour FOUNDER.
AS the leaders deemed their force sufficient,
and had received the necessary quantity OF arms
and ammunition, and as many Of their num-
Der, tired of delay, were daily leaving the
camp, it was given out on Tuesday that the
posse would leave the encampment at day.
break the next "Wednesday morning, and
march for Nauvoo. The officers, 1t is said
have one hundred writs on as many individuals
in NauVoo, which they express their determ-
nation to serve, even If it was found necessary
to enter tho town by force. In Nauvoo, there
is said to be from five to six hundred Aormens
under arms, determined on resistance. They
have several pieces of cannon, and the Temple
has been fortified. We yet entertain hopes
that matters have been amicably adjusted, but
should both parties have persevered in their a.
vowed objects, desperate action must have
already taken place between them. We shall
probably be advised of the result by to- morrow.

TIE BALTIMORE VoLUNTEERs-Prospect Of a
Battle. We extract the following from letter.
written by Baltimore volunteer at Camargo
to the Philadelphia Ledger:
The news is decidedly warlike. Gen. Tay-
lors spies have penetrated up to the very guns
at Monterey. They report very large force
there, and in the mountain passes this side.-
Gen. Worth, with one brigade, has left for some
point to be selected by him as a depot, some
60 miles up the country. The regulars are all
leaving for that place, and Gen. Taylor has
assured our Captain (StewarD that our detach-
ment shall be at his heels. heard the Gene
raj say this morning that the prospect for
fight was better now than it had been, and, he
added, to one of our men, that we 'would have
quite as much work as we would want"
We are ordered to march as soon as our 9TH
er four companies reach here. Their arrival is
hourly expected. Our Lieut.. Col. is with them.
From what can learn must say that it
looks squay. have not believed in the re-
ports heard about the defcnces which is was
reported were making at Monterey, but it is
now certain that that place is we'll fortified; that
Ampudia is there at the head ola large force;
that Paroles has been there, but that his pres
ence was required in Mexico.
The Mexican army is varously estimated at
| from 5000 to 1900 men. If they have the
minimum number, they will make good de-
fence there. II is reported that Canales was here
alone the day before yesterday, and some of
McCulough's Rangers and Capt Miles Regu-
lars are securing the country around here. Am
pudia says he will show no quarters to any
force which may fall into his power, but will
condemn to death or to the mines all the pris-
oners he NAV take

TERRIBLE STORM ON THE CoAsr.-Ship-
,crecks and Loss Of Life! The gale of last week
has proved very destructive of life and proper
ty on the coast BY the Norfolk Herald, dated
the 18th inst, we have the following
The gale of last week was more terrible and
disastrous in it's effects on the coast, than we
had any idea OF. A number of vessels in dis
tress are reported off the capes by pilots who
have come up, and upon representation of the
fact to Commodore Wilkinson, in command at
the Navy Yard, he imediately ordered the U.
S. steamer Engineer to be got ready and pro-
coed to their relief
A letter dated Old Point Comfort, and pub
llshed in the same slip, fully corroborates the
above statement. The letter is signed by James
M. Clark, who was passenger on board the
barque Isaac Mead, from New York, bound to
Savannah. The writer says:
1t is impossible to form any idea or estimate
of the immense loss of life and property. We
hazard little in saying that no vessel out at the
time has escaped without serious damage, while
many have gone entirely to pieces, and hun
dreds, and perhaps thousands of lives lost Two
long boats, nnumerable pieces of ship timber,
barrels, and other portions of cargo, and one
wreck of a vessel, were seen floating past US at
various times during the gale; all of which bear
testimony to the assertion ventured above The
writer has seen fifteen or twenty vessels making
into port sincet the storm, and not one ofthem but
has sustained heavy loss and damage in some
part.
The Isaac Mead, Capt. Pckney, lost all her
sails, (Which were closely furled) oh'cape Hat
teras, on Tuesday morning in S fathoms water
and at the time when the tempest was driving
her with terrible speed upon the bleakers.-
The wind at this moment changed, and drift
cd us away towards the north west. She lost
her bowsprit, foremost, aud suffered considera-
bly, in various places by coming in contact with
the schooner Imperial, Capt. Reid, from Phil
adelphia, bound TO Charleston The schooner
was run down, but all her crew were saved.
One poor sailor had both legs badly broken,
and was when we left the vessel this morning
expected to die in few hours.
The schooner's cargo was worth about $40,
900 and the vessel $4,000.
The schooner Walter R. Jones, from up
James River, for New York, was wrecked; all
on board saved, with the exception of the mate
who was washed over before the wreck. An
other gentleman reports four vessels lost, names
not known.

From the St Louis New Era


LATER FROM NAUvoo AND THE ANTI-MoRMoN
cAMr-We learn from two gentlemen, who arrived
here Yesterday morning in the steamer Atlas from
Keokuk, that they left the anti-Mormon camp at
ten O'Clock, on Wednesday morning. Up to that
time, nothing had transpred of serious nature.
The camp is situated about six miles from Car
| thage, in an open prairie, and from it the temple
| and other buildings in Nauvoo be distinctly
seen.
When our informants left, General Singleton, of
Brown county, was commander-in-chief assisted
by Col. Brockman, and Sheriff Carln The force,
or as the latter gentleman calls it, posse, under their
command numbers between 800 and 900 men all
armed and equipped They have six seven
pieces of artillery, agood supply of ammunition and
provisions, and are determined, 30 says rumor,
10 march into Nauvoo let the consequences be what
they may. The day for leaving their present posi-
ton is not known, but the officers in command APP
pear an xous to have sufficient force, when they do
attack Nauvoo, to overcome all opposition. Their
numbers were augmenting, about 100 volunteers
arriving daily, and it was believed that when the
posse should number 500, marching orders would
be issued. At present they are employed in drilling
| and making every necessary preparation for the
siege. Regular sentres placed by both sides on
the plain between the camp and Nauvoo, the pickets
and breast-works of which are alternately formed
during the night Great watchfulness and caution
is used to intercept spes and the removed Captain
Backenstos is said to be on the alert, and has
| mand of scouting party.
It is almost impossible to form an idea of the ex-
| act force Of the Mormons; but from some of the
new citizens, who have left Nauvoo since the pres
ent disturbances, their number Is variously esti-
| mated at from six to twelve hundred men. They
have good supply of arms and ammunition, have
strongly fortified the temple, sent all the Mormon
women and children across the river INTO Iowa, and
express their determination to repe their invaders,
or die in the attempt. The stores and most Of the
houses in the city shut up, and all kinds of bust
ness, except Of military nature, is suspended. Ii
is said that there are many of the new settlers
ous to leave, but the ack-Mormons would not let
them. No one is suffered TO pass in or out Of the
city without an order from the commanding officer.
Many families are detained, and, should fight take
place, they will be more or less exposed. The
| Mormons have taken care Of their own wives and
children, but unfeengly compel those of the new
citizens to remain. The autonomous, on We'd
nesday morning, had eight days provisions for
| 500 men, furnished by the citizens, who willingly
contribute anything they have to assist in further
ing the cause. The crisis has arrived, and it is to
be feared that bloodshed will be the consequence.
