FROM MEXICO.

Santa Anna, when last heard from, was
at the City of Mexico, and designed de-
tending it. He had abandoned the Rio
Frio Pass, under the advice of his engi-
neers. Communication between Vera
Cruz and the army was attended with
great difficulty; persons could only pass
with safety attended by a strong escort
The mail stage was robbed daily, and
has now ceased to run. Gen. Scott does
not design keeping open constant line of
communication, and there is no passing ex-
cept when an escort is necessary. Santa
Anna, at the head Of about seven thousand
troops, marched out Of Pueba the same
day Gen. Worth entered. There was
little skirmishing, in which we lost several
men. This was on the l4th May. Gen.
Scott left Jalapa for Puebla on the 23d of
May, at the head of 5000 men. Santa
Anna announces that he will have an army
OF fifty thousand men to defend the city.
II is announced that Santa Anna has re.
signed the Presidency. There are many
rumors as TO the state of affairs, future in.
tcntions, &C., which are not worth giving.
Sickness was very prevalent, and attended
with much mortality.
On the Rio Grandc, the Mexicans were
very troublesome; murders were a daily
occurrence, and another train had been
captured.
The Massachusetts Regiment was about
to set out from Matamoras for Gen. Tay
lor. Lieut. Col. Wright succeeded 10 the
Colonelcy, Maj. Abbot to the Lieut.. Colo.
nelcy, and Capt. Webster TO the Maorship.
The Texas Rangers, under Hays, were also
ready to start for Gen. Taylor's camp.
Gen. Taylor, we suppose, will be mo-
wing again soon.

and give their aid to Howard High

ability both male and female. Quit quar-.

RETURN OF THE VOLUNTEERS.

In our last we announced that Col. Don
iphan would return home by the ,cay Of
Santa Fe. This, il seems, is a mistake
Late accounts from the South state that he
had arrived at Parras, one hundred miles
from Saltillo, at which last mentioned
place he was daily expected, from whence
it was supposed he would proceed imme.
diately to New Orleans. If this all be
true-and there is no doubt of it-Colonel
Doniphan and his regiment may be ex.
pected home in a few days or weeks at
farthest.
Col. Doniphan's regiment is composed
entirely of Missourians, and well may she
be proud of her brave and hardy sons,
who left US about twelve months ago, since
which time they have undergone one of the
most tedious and ardent campaigns on re-
cord. Leaving the frontier of our State,
and following the line of march which
they pursued until they reached the Bra
zos, the distance traversed must be over
Three Thousand Miles On this long
march, they were exposed TO hardships of
every kind-met the enemy in two battles,
and defeated them-overcoming every OBJ.
stacle which the country itself presented.
Surely these men, after this perilous and
fatigueing campaign, deserve a generous
welcome home from their fellow. citizens.
Other counties are preparing TO receive
their companies in proper manner--Old
Howard has company in this regiment,
which has reflected unfadng honor on her,
the State, and themselves! Shall they not
meet Nth hearty ,Uelcome7

OREGoN.-We learn from the ST. 10.

wagons of emigrants to Oregon, have ar
rived at that place this Spring, and passed
on their way. In addition to the number
starting from 81. Joseph, a large number
will start from Westport, in Jackson coun.
ty. The larger number of the emigrants
were from northern Missouri, Iowa, and
Illinois.

From the New Orleans Picayune of the 3D.
FROM THE BRAZOS--COL. DONIPHAN
AT PARRAS,


The schooner Sovereign, Capt. Peterson, ar
rived last evening from Brazos Santiago, whence
she sailed on the 26th ult. Although not later
than the James L. Day, she brings copies of the
Matamoras Flag OF the 22d and 26th, ult
which we had not before seen.
The news we gave yesterday Of the arrival O
Col. Doniphan at Psnas, is confirmed by the
Flag, which says the intelligence was communi.
terey. Col. Donphan was shortly expected
down the river with his command.
Mr.. Parish, bearer OF dispatches 10 Gen. Tay
lor, from Washington, passed through Matamor
as on the 25th ult. 10 his destination.
Gen. Cushing had received orders to Join Gen.
Taylor Immediately at Monterey. Although he
has not ye: recovered from his recent injury, he
had determined 10 set off in few days. The
Massachusetts regiment would go off with him.
The Flag mentions that Capt. Edward Webster,
now in this city, has been appointed aid to Gen.
Gushing.
Brig. Gen. Cadwallader, had ordered an cleo.
ton in the Massachusetts, regiment to supply the
vacancy in the colonelcy made by the promotion
Of Gen. Gushing.
Three men Of this regiment recently deserted
and attempted TO reach the Brazos. They cross.
ed The river above Maamoras, and had not gone
far before a party of Camanches came across
them and murdered them all. The Flag says
that few days prior to this, as the Kentucky cav.
airy were on the march from Camargo to Rey.
nosa, they arrested another dessrter from the same
regiment. On being INTERCEPTED he replied that
he was going to Monterey, to take a boat to 90
back TO Massachusetts. Whether his insanity
was real, or only feigned, the Flag had not been
informed
The body Of white man has been recently
discovered about 7 miles below Reynosa, shot
through the breast. No clue has been discover.
ed to the circumstances Of the murder or the
name Of the victim.
The news from Monterey is no later than we
have already given. The LIST Ohio regiment was
to leave there on the 10Th, and the list Indiana
regiment on the goth ult., on their way home.
The last train coming down met 1900 pack
mules near Cerralvo, going up with supplies.

| SANTA ANNA STONED IN THE CAPIToL.--
From La PGtria, OF yesterday, we learn that let
tiers have been received in this city by The way o.
Tampico, from the city of Mexico, to the els
ult., in which it is stated that Santa Anna arrived
in the capitol on the 10Th May, as was expected;
that his reception was very different from what be
anticipated. The populace, or rabble, principal.
y leperos, assembled to receive the President
ad interim, and showered upon him curses both
loud and deep; and from words, proceeded, as the
old nursery story runs, 10 try what virtue there
was in stones. His Excelency not being ambi
tious TO follow the example Of st. Stephen, esca.
ped with great difficulty, and, protected by his
friends, sought an asylum in the palace. The
people, indignant at the frequent defeats of the
Mexican armies, and the failure of Santa Anna
to redeem his numerous promises, sought 10 re-.
venge themselves upon his person. Had il not
been for the armed force and the police, the I'm.
happy President would have been dragged
through the streets, as was once the fate of that
poor amputated limb, which has served him SO
long as most potent reminder Of courage and
gallantry which are now sadly in want OF new
props.
These statements arc based upon information,
communicated by very reliable persons, 10 COM
merclal house in this city, which usually obtains
the first and most authentic news from Mexico
We (of the Delta) give the story in our own
language, as we learn it from La PatYia and
other sources, not vouching Tor its truth, but not
dscredting it. We think it not improbable that
his Excelency has arrived at the point in his his.
tory, where he must make one OF those rapid de.
scents from great power to great nothngness, so
characteristic OF all who rest their hopes upon the
tickle and lreacherous rabble Of Mexco--a rab
ole whose nature is strong compound of the
worst vices Of civilization and barbarism.

A WoRD OF CAUrIoS.-On all occasions OF
festivity and joy, when we are all prone to in
dulge in the good things of this life, and not I'M
frequently to excess, let us not forget that the
pleasures of the table, when enjoyed beyond the
bounds of prudence, are always at the expense OF
health. To such, however, as are Inadvertently
led into excess the Indian Vegetable Pills will be
found the best, if not the very best medicine in
the world for the rarrying off all complaints which
arise from the irregularty of dict; because they
cleanse the stomach and bowels from those bilious
humors which are the cause of headach, giddiness
sick stomach sour belchings, loss of appetite
lowness of spirits, and many other distressing COM
plants.
Wrights Indian vegetable Pills also aid and
improve digestion and purify the blood, and there
fore give health and vigor to the whole frame, as
well as drive pain Of every description from the
body.
Beware Of Counterleits Of all Kind =! Some al
coated with sugar, others are made to re semble

safest course is, to puroha Of the regular agents
only, one or of whom may be found in every

DIED.,

Departed this life, in Shoreham, on Sabbath
morning Nov. 2sth Hon. John s. Larrabee, in
the SD year of his age. He was confined to his
room about eight weeks He was one of the ear
hest settlers of the town, and altho ugh he COM
menced poor.yet by honesty and ind ustry he rose
tosa competence and even to affiuence
For time he filled the office Of County JUDGE.
and discharged the duties of his station with that
dignity and propriety SO peculiar to the man.
For several years he was devoted member OF
the Christian Church. and although he had select
ed the Methodist Episcopal as that of his choice
vet his love was not restricted to sect or party
but extended to all bearing the fruits of Christi
anity In his own neighborhood his loss will be
deeply felt His opinions were often sought for
in matters of Law and Jurisprudence, and his
timely counsels were like "apples of gold in pitch
ers of silver" In brief good man has fallen
and who will catch his mantle and initiate his vir.
tues.
During the past summer he has often said that
his glass was nearly run, and spoke of lis depar-
ture with a composure that nothing but Christian
ity inspired. AS citizen he was truly worthy.
AS councillor and friend he was unsurpassed.
As fathsr, he was kind and affectionate. AS a
companion, he was loving and beloved.-In fine

VERMONT AND CANADA RoAD.-The St
Adams Messenger gives the public TO under
stand that at meeting of the directors of this
road. recently held in Boston, it was resolved
that the survey of route from some point IN
Chi.tenden County to some point on the west
ern line of Grand Isle county most convenient
to connect with the Osdensburgh road and
road from Montreal should be made under d.
rection of the President John Smith, tx Gov.
Paine and Lawrence Brainard, who have al
ready secured the services of an able engineer
Onerations are TO commence on the first OF
January next,
1t is believed by the friends Of the road that
there Is no doubt of the right Of the Company
under the act of the last Legislature to bridge
any navigable waters on this line within the
Jurisdiction of Vermont. 1t is said that de-
cision has been made by Judge Savage upon
clause in a New York charter of which the
section of the Vermont charter is copy And
al so BY Judge Woodbury. of the United States
Supreme Court The same paper states that
the attempts of some of the New York people
to change the location of the Ogdensburgh
road which can only be done by two-third
vote has failed. After a full discussion but
five votes could be found in favor Of the mod
ifcation.

CAUTION.

The public arc particularly cautioned against
purchasing imitation articles, pretending to have
the same effect as Browns Sarsaparilla and To-
mato Bitters. Never buy the Sarsapurilla and
Dandclion Panacea, Kittridge's Tomato Bitters,
nor Extract of Sarsaparill, Tomato, and Dande-
lion, and any other preparation with the excepta-
tioh of getting the genuine SARSAPARILLA
AND TOMATO BITTERS, which are prcpar-
ed at the Medicine Store, No. IS, Washington
street. Boston. These Bittcrs are the first prepar
alton of the kind that was ever sold and they are
the only genuine article of the kind now in the
market Always see that the direction is signed
