Mr.. Yancey's remarks upon The Bill 20

Trading and Insurance Company.

"rbe objects Of the Bill were o open
aud encourage Il direct trade between the
Republic of Hamburg. Germany, Prussia,
Sweden, aud such countries as could be
enlisted in The enterprise, aud Hamburg,
So Ca, through the port Of Charleston.
The enterprise, if it could be carried ou.
would redound greatly to The Interest of
The State al large. All the manufactured
articles Of those countries. To wit, of hemp
cotton. and Swedish iron, would be i'm
ported in the vessels Of the com 2auy di-
reclly 10 Charleston and Hamburg, for The
consumption of our citizens, and be paid
for oy our cotton and rice. Ii would Ger

beneficial as they now de. chiefly through
the port of Liverpool This direct trade
and barter for, our rice would The more
speedily Introduce ri':e inio those countries
as an article of more genera! diet. And
as you extend The consumption of rice,
you enhance its value. as its production
mus, necessarily be limited, from the
very small quantity of lands suitable Tor
its cultivation; and as you enhance, its
value, you enhance the value Of the rice
lands. In commercial point of view,

rest of Charleston, as the commercial mar!
through which this trade was to be eliec-
ted, and of the rice planters and the State

The DEsPATCHEs FROM MExiCo-O,r Pro-
posats for Peace No! Rejected. The Union has
at last gwen publicity to the substance of the
dispatches from Mexico. That paper Of Sa-
turday evening says;
We can state up competent authority, that
the report is not true, that Mexico has refused
to negotiate with the government of the Unit
cd States until we shall withdraw our armies
from her territory and our fleets ION her coasts
This report is absolutely destitute of founda-
ton. The government ofthat republic hasdeter-
mined to refer the Presidents overture, to open
negotiations for peace, to the constituent con-
gress of Mexico, which will assemble in the be-
ginning OF December, 1--WE believe the 6th.)
We are unable to say how far Santa Anna
participated in this answer. We understand
this reply was transmitted by Gen, Rejon, the
secretary of foreign AFFAIRS and that only four
days elapsed between the receipt Of the letter of
our Secretary of State and the reply Of the
! Mexican Minister, But though Santa Anna
might not have been consulted about the form
of the reply, yet the character of it seems to
correspond to the general principle he pro-
tesses to have laid down for hmself-of throw
ing himself upon the wishes of the people and
OF the constituent congress.
From THE Rio De LA PLATA. BY the ar
rival of the barque Mazeppa, at New York,
from Rio de Janeiro, accounts little later from
the la Plata have been received. The only
item of any interest, however, relates to the
mission Of Mr.. Hood, whose prof ositions to the
Buenos Ayrean Government are said to be as
follows:-
LIST. The evacuation of the Montevidean ter
rtory by the Argentine troops; I'd. A free cleo
ton of deputies in the city and country; Sd.

SURRENDER OF THE MORMONS-THE AN
tbs IN NAUVOO-QUlET RESTORED.
We are indebted to the St. Louis Repub-
can for an extra containing the particulars of
the surrender of Nauvoo to the lawless mob by
which it has so long been threatened. A letter
in the Republican, dated the 18Th inst, says:
The Mormon war is at last ended. On We'd
nesdoy evening, the Quincy committee prevail
ed on the Mormons TO surrender; and yester-
day, at three O'clock the antics marched into.
and took possession of the city of Nauvoo-
The Mormons stipulated to leave forthwith, OF
as fast as they can possibly get away, except
committee OF live, who are to remain TO dispost
ofthe property yet belonging to the communi
ty' No property has been, or is TO be dsStroyed-
although strong disposition existed, with ma
ny of the antics, to destroy the temple They
fear it will be beacon light to lure the Nor
mons back. BY retaining from VIOLENT mea-
sures the antics have saved themselves from a
great deal of reproach
gentleman who left Nauvoo yesterday, at
9 O'Clock, said the Mormoms were leaving as
fast as they could get away, Yesterday was q
happy day for the citizens of Hancock county,
as peace is now permanently restored to it.
We learn, i'll addition, that the prescribed
people were quitting Nauvoo as fast as possible
The steamer Osprey was to take as many as
| she could carry, up the river, and others will
probably come to St. Louis. The people o
Iowa are not well disposed towards them, anC
1t is not probable that many will find resting
! place in that Territory.

Editors Of the Della:
Gentlemen-I have just time to send you
the latest news. Taylor left Camargo forMon-

has arrived at Monterey with large force, re-
ports say from 1000 to 10000 men, and 10
pieces of artillery. He has completely fortified
the place. His proclamation has been received
IN which he threatens to shoot any Mexican

Quarters were at Scravo, halfway between
Camargo and Monterey. Letters received
from above anticipate desperate resistance at
the latter place. The campaign has commence
ed in earnest. This intelligence arrived by the
Camargo mail last night. have barely time
TO write this much, as the Telegraph leaves in
ten minutes. ID.
.drreS # Col. Harney. We learn from a
passenger on the Telegraph, who left Camargo
on the 9Th instant, that Just as he was on the
point of starting down the river, an express ar
rived at that town, with the intelligence that
Col Harvey had been arrested, when four days
on his march from San Antonio toward Mon
terey. 1t appears that Generals Taylor and
Wool having been apprised of his advance, inn
medlately after it took place, forthwith dis
patched an officer IN pursuit Of him, by whom
he was soon overtaken, and placed in arrest, OH
the charge OF disobedlence of orders Colonel
Harvey and his command were marched back
to san Antonio, where he remains in custody,
The worst part Of the story is, that on his re-
turn to San Antonio, portion of his baggage
train was surprised and cut off by the Mex
caus' We can find no good authority for this
story, although we have heard 1t from several
distinct sources We set IT down as 'camp
rumor."
