CALL FOR TROOPS NORTH- CAROLYN
IN THE FIELD.

We learn from the Union of the 10th inst,
that a call has been made for a regiment of In
fantry from each of the following States: From
Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania,
Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Louisiana, Mississippi; and one regiment OF
mounted men from Texas. They are called
forth to serve during the continuance of the
Mexican war, if not sooner discharged. So
North Carolina will at last have chance of
showing her gallantry and her patriotism, and
knowing her sons as we do, we feel confident
the call viii be responded to with eagerness
and enthusiasm. The North Carolina regi-
ment has been ready and only waiting for or
ders. We are glad to see this movement on
the part of the administration, as it will erince
to its enemies, at home as well as abroad, that
it is determined to prosecute the war with Wig
or, and conquer peace when all other means
have failed. We have not heard from Raj
e;gh yet, whether Governor Graham has re-
eeived the requisition, hut suppose he has.

REVOLUTION IN CAMPEACHY,

By the arrival of the Yucatan schooner Joa-
qusfa, at New Orleans, the Picayune has re-
ceived dates from Laguira, Campeachy, up TO
the 26th ult. The Joaquina brought out a
new pronounciamento, which protests against
those officers who have refused to give in their
adhesion to the new law or order OF things as
being contrary to the wishes of their constitu-
ents The objects of the pronounciamento
are not very clear, but, adds the Picayune, &c it
may be recollected that the people of Cam
peachy before refused compliance with the
act of the Yucatan Congress passed on the
25th of August, acknowledging the revolution
in Mexico and proclaiming Santa Annals as.
cendancy. They refused TO promulgate the
decree till Barbachano threatened them with
coercion. This last revolution may be anoth.
er outbreak of the same spirit.
"The formal pronounciamento is followed
by an address to the different municipalities O.
the peninsula. We have no room for the ad
dress. We have, besides, the act of the gar
rison of Campeachy, in which, after due de-
liberation they declare their adhesion to tn
pronouaciamento and pledge themselves to it

LATEST FROM THE ARMY

We learn from the New Orleans correspon-

weston arrived at New Orleans on the 18th
inst. in 4S hours from Brazos Santiago Jack
Hays and Captain Walker, of the Texan VOL
unteers, came passengers, on their way to
Washington. The Courier's correspondent
says that an extra received this morning
mentions the arrival of a gentleman there, who
left Monterey the 10Th ult He says it wa.
currently reported in the Army, and believed
that Gen. Ampudia had not retreated to Sar
Louis de Potosi, as before reported, but with
his Army of $4,000 men, well supplied with
munitions OF every kind, had marched to Mon
clovia, with view to intercept Gen. Wool

THE FOREIGN NEWS.

The intelligence brought by the Great Yves
tern published in another column) is not OF
any very stirring importance. The demand
for American produce of all kinds still contin-
ues active and bright. Cotton keeps advan-
cling, and the demand is good. From the tone
of the English press, we have no doubt bu
that a further reduction on the duties now i'm.
posed on foreign breadstuffs, will be effected
in the approaching session Of Parliament. Ii
England free trade seems to be the order O.
the day. The people demand it at the hand:

THE IOAN

Notwithstanding the predictions of the feds
we are glad to be able to state that the Loan
which the administration found it necessary
to negotiate, has been taken at rates very add
vantageous to the Government The Union
of the 10th inst. says :. The whole Loan has
been taken by various bidders at rates varying
from par to five per cent. premium for small
proportion, but chiefly al par" The whole
amount of the Loan exceeds the sum of five
millions of dollars. The promptness with
which the Loan was negotiated, and the easy
rates at which it was taken, demonstrates the
confidence which capitalists have in the abiE.
ty of Government to meet her engagements
It is also another evidence that the administra.
ton intends to prosecute the war with vigor,

COTTON VS.. GUNPOWDER.

We noticed some time ago the discovery
made in Europe that Cotton can be made to
answer all the purposes of Gunpowder. Mr..
Robertson, our Consul at Bremen, on his re-
turn from that place, brought with him seal
ed package, from Professor Schonbein, direc-
ted to the President of the United States, and
to be opened only by him. This packet was
opened in the presence OF Mr.. Polk and Mr.
Robertson, and contained wad of the prepa-
red Cotton, upon which Col. Talcott, the head
of the Ordnance Bureau, made some expert
ments. The experiments, although satisfacto-
~ as to the explosive nature of the prepared
Cotton, did not fully come up to the European
accounts. A gun was loaded with ten grains
and a ball, and fired off at the distance of forty
yards, against granite wall, upon which it
(the balD made considerable indentaton, and
recoiled some five or six feet, much flattened.
There is no doubt, now, but that Cotton will,
in a short time, take the place of Gunpowder.
