Dreadful Pestilsnce an the 8M Regiment OF
Infantry.--The following is an extract of a
letter we received yesterday, from friend;
dated
FoRT LAvAcA, Dec. "a, 184S.
A fearful and unheard of pestilence is in
our midst: the blood almost curdIes at the
thought. In the last 48 hours eighty or nine
ty men, Of the 9Th Regiment of the U. S In
fantrv, have been buried. Last night, in the
very centre of our village, there Were forty OF
fifty dead, and now, as am writing, three
loads OF dead bodies, drawn and distorted in
all manner Of shapes, are passing within ten
feet of nv door. The most exaggerated de-
scrptions of plague. cholera or pestence
could not equal the reality In The % hours
ending this morning, husband and wife, father
and son, have hrealhed their las, in the same
he'd. and the strong and we'll man, that fol-
lowed the sick to the hospital, in. six hours
has been cold and stiff in death.
The Regiment arrived here scarce eight days
ago On the passage, little or no sickness had
occurred. As the men lan.ted, they were
marched out some one and Il half miles, and
encamped 10 await transportation After re
naming some three days, large part of the
Regiment was advanced some ten miles for
the sake of wood and water The first cases
occurred on the 10Th and ooh, and increased
50 rapidly, and terminated so fatally, that the
Commanding officer obtained some houses. and
marched the remainder of the Regiment, with
the sick and dying, to our town Last night,
in one house, some forty or fifty cases termi-
mated fatally; and now, % A. NJ +, forty unhu-

A NOTEWORTHY ADMISSION,

The Liverpool Journal "a paper well known
for its hostility to free government, and. OF
course, TO the Democratic party in this coun-
try,) finds itself constrained to bear the follow
ing Impressive testimony to the ability and
success Of the present administration -
'' Much as we may dislike President Polk,
we must admit that his administration has been
singularIy successful. Free trade has found
in him a considerable patron; the nation has
increased in prosperity under his superinen-
dence; and he has diminished the chance of
future wars by compelling Great Britain, the
most potent power. to arrange the Oregon af-
fair, and Mexico, the feeblest, TO pay its debts
If not in money, at least in territory In
diplomacy and war he has been equally sue
cessful.''
The following is from the London Times,
on our recent elections:

could not have been afforded of the stability
