LATER AND STARTLING NEWS
FROM MEXiCD.s 81,

lie hue steamer ENd0rG arrived last
evening from New Orleans, with papers
down to the evening Of the 24tiI. Their
contents are of very great interest. The
first vessel by which we have any news is
the Galveston, from Vera Cruz, bringing
dates to the 18th Of August, and from Pu-
ebla to the 9th of5that month. Letters for
the Picayune were despatched from Pueblo
to Vera Cruz by an exclusive express, and
from that paper we make upthe news.
Gen. Scott was still at Puebla on the
9th ult., butsthe army was to take up the
line OF march the next day for the city OF
Mexico-Gen. ,rwjgg's division leaving on
the 18th, Cen. Quitman's On the 9Th, Gen
Worths on the,9th, and Gen. Pillows on
the 10TH Col. Childs remains in command
a. Pueba. 80
Gen. Pierce arrived at Puebla on the 9th
Aug. lie lost not single man on his
march, Notwithstanding another severe fight
with the guerrlllas.
(, From Vera Cruz, too, the news is impor-
tant. The train which left Vera Cruz the
evening Of the 9th ult., has been attacked
about twenty four miles from Vera Cruz; in
deed, attacks commenced shortly after leay-
ing that city The escort to.the train was
ungef command OF Major Lally, Of the 9th
Infantry, Colonel Wilson being down with
yellow fever. We have confidence that
the following isa more correct report Of the
principal attair than that Of the Sun Of An
ahuac 1t is from an officer Of intelligence,
and is to the latest date: s.,
CAMP AT BRlDaE, "a miles from

IN force at Paso Oneja, one mile 10 the rear
ios this camp, about 3 r. NJ. Attacks were
made in front, in rear, and upon,the centre
of the train, and they were repulsed at all
points, and we advanced 10 this encanp-
msrlt. Our force was we'll distributed for
the defence of the; train, the force in tho
rear being nearly as long az in front, and y
guard of two companies in the centre Of the
wagons, and flanking along side Of the train
throughout.
But our loss is severe, two officers being.
severely wounded. Capt. james III. Caid-

Friend Clarke Il find in the several papers
published in this State, that the Democracy gen.
IertlIy are in favor Of State Convention and
learn there will be two candidates in the city of
Little Rock for Governor, and one for Congress.
1 suppose they will place their names in nomTna-
Ion before the contemplated convention, and abide
|the decision of the same.
fihe several counties of the State should elect
delegates, hope TO hear that those delegates will
snerd the convention, and not leave the voice of
|he citizens of whole counties 10 be cast by pror.
|@ Interested politicians living in Little Rock. |
III the people of county does not take interest
enough to attend the convention, it is presumabe
that they will not take interest enough to attempt
defeat of the nominees. therefore if they do not
attend, they should not vote.
hope sectional feelings and the influence of
|cIiquas, neither will prevail. will be pleased to
|se the party get along without the control of a

Ing our offices, that would discharge the trus. con-
fded 10 them in the North. Soulhf East and West
and not compelled all tie time TO look up to Little
Rock for TO fill every office of distinction in

/ There has been, as yet but little said here in

s'r as am capable of Judging. Roane, in all pro-

the oniuion that Wilson would get the nomination
from this coy, IN the event that this county
sboud hold meeting, but from the best informa-
t;on am able TO gather at present, think the
matter extremely doubtful. WILSON, has as much
nersonaI popularity in this county as any man,
bu OTdham's qualifications areconsidered at least
equal 10 those of any man in the State. Some
psrsons arc inclined TO raise objections TO Will
sons age and want of experience. Oldham is in
every way calculated to make US better Repre-
sentative. Be these matters as they may, we will
most assuredly support the nomination Of the con-
yenlion and we have no fears of him being South

ninent aspirants for Congress are from the North,
Is their claims may be troublesome to settle in
the convention, and IN the event an independent
,andldate in the field, and may be whig elected
