The CALF oRNIA EXPEDITION. The Wash
ington Union, noticing the report that Col.
Mason, of the LIST Regiment of U. S. Dragons,
who has been sent into California, via the 18TH
mus of Panama, is to have the command OF
the California Regiment that sailed from New
York under the command of Col. Stevenson,
says:
The facts are, that Col. Stevenson 1ent out
only as Colonel of his regiment. If he found
himself senior military officer, lie would, of
course, command all the forces there; bat it
was expected that Gen. Koarney would be
there before Col, S. arrived. Col. Mason has
gone out and ranks Col. s., and General X.
ranks him. 1t is probable that Col. Mason may
reach California before Gen. Kearney, in which
case he will take the command.

the popular mind urge such course, and as

recall the dead-we cannot restore the limbs
of those who have lost them in the service Of
their country-but let US as a nation, manifest

| SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM MEXICO Santt
.9nna al San Louis The Merican Army. The
New Orleans Commercial Times has received
letter from Vera Cruz, dated the It'll uIt.,
containing some interesting intelligence, The
Times says:
1t came by the way of Pensacola, and ena-
bles US to add another link to the chain of
events which characterize our hostile position
with Mexico. Our last accounts from Vera
Cruz were to the LIST ult., consequently these
are seven days later, in which interval advices
from the city of Mexico had reached that port,
up TO comparatively recent date. Our cor
respondent informs us that the news of the seige
and surrender of Monterey had arrived at the
Mexican capital, but the effect produced on the
popuIace was not such as might naturally have
been expected. No doubt the cooring given
by Ampudia to the conflicts between our troops
and the enemy, was such as to lead them to be-
lleve that he had overwhelming numbers to
contend with, of whom he had slaughtered
more than necessary to save the national hon
or. However that may be, it seems that both
the Government and people are not at all cast
down by this reverse; on the contrary, they had
displayed the greatest enthusiasm in their Ian
guage regarding the prosecution of the war,
being filled with the hope Of coming out even
tually victors in the struggle
AT the last dates from the city of Mexico,
we are informed that the government had re-
ceiVed news Of the arrival of Santa Anna at
San Luis Potos, where he already found him
self at the head of an imposing force. He an
nounced that he would be enabled in the course
OF very short period of time, by the levies
which had been made on the several depart
ments and cities, to collect around his standard
host OF patriots, that would swell his army to
lliguro sufficiently large to drive the invaders
from the soil.
A good deal of this enthusiasm, of which our
correspondent speaks, one might shrewdly guess
was on paper simply-a cheap way, by the bye
OF displaying fervor of support. 1t is hardly
compatible with reason, if any extraordinary
degree of genuine patriotism exsted-that sa-
cred feeling, we mean, which would urge a
people to make any sacrifice to sustain the ma
tional bonor-that Santn Anna, their chosen
lavorite leader, should have been permitted TO
leave the metropolis with so small reinforce
mcnt as 1000 cavalry and 1000 infantry, with
military chest of s27, 900. But it is a waste
OF time and space to speculate on Mexico and
Mexlcans, in regard to national movements,
with the ordinary data on which we base opin-
ions, as respects other civilized countries. The
fact is, that national vanity and national gno-
rance combine to make them insensble to any
reverses which are not absolutely and over
whelmingly runous.

POPULAR VorE FOR NJ fMBERs OF CoNGREss
The majorities Of the ten democratic members
ofcongress, elected in New York, amount to
4,437, and the mljorities Of the tweniy-four
wings, to 4,S56-differonce 2O,4I9. This,
however, says the True Sun, is not fair test
of the position Of parties, as more than two
candidates were voted for in several districts,

Iowa ELECTION. The st. Louis Republi-
can gives table showing the election of s
whig Senators and % wing delegates, and
adds:
These returns, if they are all found to be cor
rect, as we believe they will be, give the Wings
majority on joint ballot. But the Wings
look for success in other districts. They ex-
pect the election of Watson in the Dubuque,
Delaware, Clayton, Black Hawk, Buchanan,
and Fayette districts. He was, it is said only
fifty behind in Dubuque county-and Clayton,
where Watson resides, is expected to give him
a majority in the whole district. There was
also report at Burlington, that John P. Cock
(Whig) had been elected; and there is doubt
about one or two other districts.
We can see nothing in the papers of very
definite character about the election for State
| officers. The democrats are not very sanguine
of the success of their ticket, and our friends do
not give up the election of Mcknight as Gov
ernor. Hedrick, also, in some counties, runs
ahead Of his ticket for Congress-.

A WIFE WORTH HAVING, AND Co y WORTH
KEEPING. Mrs. Howard, wife Of Jos. Howard,
of Oneida Co., n. York, between the middle Of
March, and the Isl of October, of this year,
made 2S3 l2 pounds of first rate butter, from
the milk Of only one COW. In addition to this,
the calf was kept with the COW till it was fit for
veal, Cover four wceks,) and the family had an
abundance of milk TO use. Mrs. Howard is
prudent and industrious wife, and few such
COWS under her care and management, would
make fortune for any man.

MATTERS AND THINGS IN New YORK. We
make the following extracts of interesting
items, from New York letter in the Philadel-
phia Inquirer:
A case of Grim. con. will soon be tried in our
Courts, that involves the purity of one of our
most fashionable married ladies', as we'll as the
character of eight or ten of the leaders of the
ton in New York. 1t is expected that the de.
velopments On the trial will be astounding.
The trial of Henry G. Marx, for shooting the
milkman who went to his house and demanded
his sisters clothes and money, is still going on.
1t will probably be terminated Tomorrow. The
defence are endeavoring to prove that the PTS.
tol was possibly discharged by Mrs. Marx or
either of her daughters 1t viii hardly avail,
however.
Mike Walsh, our new representative, con-
tinues very i'll, although slowly recovering -
lie will, however, be able to leave his room, it
is supposed, in week, unless his attack as
sumcs an uniavorabIa shape.

Gun CorroN. This new explosive prepara-
ton, as we learn from the London Times, has
beeA submitted to a board of engineer and ar
tillery officers, who, after series of expert
ments and trials of its powers with muskets and
rifles, have reported most favorably of its value
and utility as respects small-arms; and recon-
mended that further experiments should be
made upon a larger scale, with the view of
testing its applicability to heavy ordnance.
A rifle charged with flty-four and half
grains of gunpowder sent ball through seven
boards half an inch each in thickness, at dis
lance of forty yards; the same gun charged
with forty grains of cotton sent the ball into
the eighth board. On subsequent trial with
fresh rifle at ninety yards, forty grains of cot
ton carried the ball through eight boards. 1t is
stated also, that with light guns there was no
report, no recoil, and scarcely any resduum in
the breech ofthe gun, and that the by-standers
were not aware often of the gun having been
fired, till the effects of the ball were seen.

EXTRAORDINARY MARRIAGE. We find the
following account of a singular marriage in the
St. Louis Republican:
Married, on the 1st inst, on board the steam.
er Die Vernon, by Esq. Waugh, of Scott coun-
ty, Mo-, Mr.. Baptiste Vean to Madam Char
lotte Hoffman.
The above was handed to us last evening,
with an account of the woolng, engagement
and speedy marriage. The happy groom is a
SPanard, who has just arrived from the Rio
Grande; the fair bride, widow, was taken
from the ship which brought her from Germa-
ny, and the first time they met was on board
the Die Vernon, where each had taken passage
for this place. Neither could understand a
word the other said, but the enamored Spa
niard with eyes and gestures, and the occa
sional aid of an interpreter, so vigorously urged
his suit, that on the second day out from New
Orleans the widow surrendered, and on the fol-
lowing day, there happening to be Justice of
the Peace on board, they were married. The
joyful bridegroom RECALLED the passengers and
officers of the boat with champagne and other
delicacies, and spent his money freely. And
we'll he might, for, with the buxom widow, he
also got possession of forty thousand dollars in
gold, which, on his coming on board, she had
deposited in the clerks office.
