the city of Mexico. Col. Carrabaja, and others,
are opening new road from Camargo to Monte
rey-the direction for most of the distance will be
near the banks of the river San Juan. When com
pleted it will be of considerable advantage to Rio
Grande City, as also to Camargo The route has
already been surveyed, it is well supplied with
water, and is said to be 50 miles nearer than the
old road travelled by our Army. The troops to be
stationed at Camargo have arrived in Monterey,
and daily looked for at their place of destina-
ton. Gen. Bustamente has been relieved from
the command of the frontier forces, by Gen Mnion,
who will establish his headquarters at Monterey.

lect that a little girl went over the Schuykl dam
the other day on cake of ice. She was an intelli-

hour was consumed in rubbing her with Cayenne

evidences of animation, and her first words were

some of her pretty hair in order TO apply something

I'm dead but don't cut off my hair. I know /
can't curl it any more because Pm dead-but, DEAR
good people, pray don't cut off my hair. Shortly
after she completely recovered As she is
