cosSfSomnamtulism.- AItogelher the
mosL2ieresling case ofsomnambulism on
rscSl, is tina, Of young ecclesias'ic, the
nffalive of which, from The immediate
.Emmunicaion of an Archbishop of Bor.
sIeaux, is given under The head Of Som
nambulisn, in the French Encyclopedia.
This young ecclesiastic, when the Arch.
bishop was at the seminary. used to rise
every night, and write out either sermons
or pieces Of music. To study his condi.
,ion the Archbishop betook himself several
nights to The chamber Of The young man,
where lie made the following observations.
The young man used TO rise, to take paper
and TO write. Before he wrote music he
would take stick and rule the lines with
it. He wrole the notes, together with the
words corresponding with them, with
perfect correctness. Or when ne had
written too wide he altered them. The
notes that were to be black he filled in
after he had completed The whole. After
completing a sermon, he read il aloud from
beginning 10 end. II any passage dis
pleased him he erased it, and wrole The
amended passage correctly over the other;
or one OCCASION he had to substitute the
word "adorable" for divine but he.did
no, omit to alterlhe preceding zee" into
"cet." by adding the letter "t" with exact
precision to the word first written. To
ascertain whether he used his eyes. the
Archbishop inlerposed a sheet Of paste
board between the wiring and his face.
Henook not the lenst notice, but wentson
wiring as before. The Limitation of his
perceptions TO what he was thinking about
was very curious. A bit of aniseed cake

.lEATEa FROM THE tssITIo1 MExIcosSs
w6icr It. IS sl6leu Byy "a PERSON wn6 ieisIne,
capital on the 9th ins. that the eported'
commission 10 treat for peace With Gen.
Scott at San Martin Tesmefucan, had not
been appointed up 10 that date (tfe Glib, J.
and that at the time all the energies Of
the Mexican Government were directed to
The defence OF the capital aud the means To-
resist the entrance thereto Of the American
armv.
The Courier is in receipt Of papers from
the city Of Nj exico as late as the 18th inst:
A, that time the Mexican Congress was
not completely organized for want Of q
quorum:
On the 10Th, the members present had
refused. by majority ofone vote, TO declare
recess, 10 expectation Of sufficient
number 10 commence business, and 10
take into consideration the American
proposals of peace. The Sun Of Anahuac
says the Congress must either resolve that
negotiations shall be opened with Gen.
Scott, or authorize the government to do
so. 1t is no, within the ordinary powers
Of the Congress to enter directly upon
negotiation, and therefore il is probable they
will give full authority to the Executive To-
acl in this affair.
The Sun thinks that no negotiation will
be proceeded in, unless i. tend to an .hon-
orable peace from Mexico, that is, Tit be-
conducted by the Congress. II, on the
other hand, Congress confde the nego-
tiations 10 Saula Anna, il is a sign that
| they desire peace on any terms.
According 10 an article in the Monitor
Republican,, of the l ltil there was rurI
,ure between Santa Anna and Canalizo-,
but ,hoy met together and were reconciied.
aud Canalizo was to havs an important
post in the Capital. ., !.
The same paper says that Santa Anna
was determined 10 govern with the MIN
lister of War and Of Finance, and with the
higher officers of tho departments OF Justice
aud Of Foreign affairs.
The Monitor of the 18th, conlradicts. iri
very positive terms. the rumor that Santa
Anna was to Ire appointed Dictator, and
ascribes it 10 The enemies OF Santa Anna
aud of the country.
The Republicano, Of the 10Th, remarks
that Gen. Scott will not very soon matcil
upon the capital.
seems that Santa Anna Had again
| offered his resignation-for We 6cd in the
Monitor. of 3d July, that His resignation
was refused by committee 10 whom
the subject had been referred.
A letter from Puebla, July l. published
in the Monitor, of the 3d., states aiat the
American troops were concentrated me
upper part Of the town.. occupying me
heights Of San Juan do Loretto and Guada-
lupe. The same letter states That Inc.
| troops treat the inhabitants With the utmost
| respect in the day time, land as soon. as the
