ARMY ORDERs.-The Secretary of War has
ordered that several Companies of United States
Flying Artillery be forthwith disbanded. MANY
other troops will be disbanded. No means were
provided by Congress to move the troops the from
tier, where alone they wanted, and subsist them
there Hence the necessity for these orders, not
wlthstanding the most necesstous demands are
coming up from Texas, New Mexico and Califor-
MA for troops to protect the people from Indian
outrages. The Government of Mexico also com.
plains bitterly of the non-fu6ment of treaty obi
cations in regard to frontier exposures

The new American clipper ship Typhoon, Capt
Salter which sailed from Portsmouth, N. H., on
the 18th ult, arrived off Holyhead on the 25th ult,
and at her wharf next morning, thus accomplished
the passage from dock to dock in thirteen and a
half days, including calms and head winds During
the passage she repeatedly made over fifteen and a
halt knots per hour and in two days made run oi
659 miles and on the whole we believe her entire
run IS the shortest on record of sailing vessel
The Liverpool Times says she has been visited by
hundreds of adming spectators at Bramley Moore
Dock She was twice struck by lightning on the
18th March, which severely burnt one of the men
and slightly deaced her cabin.

GROWTH OF CITIEs,-An article in the Western
Journal, speaking of the growth of cities in the
last years, says that of the four great Eastern
cities, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and
Boston, the increase of population has been great
er in Philadelphia and Baltimore accordingly than
in New York, and that the business of Boston has
increased faster than the population, but it is sup
posed that this is owing, in part, to the number OF
railroads in the vicinity, which enables many do.
ing business in the city to reside al distance
from it, OF the Western cities, Pittsburgh has in
creased at the rate of about 300 per cent, Cncin.
natl about $50 per cent, and ST. Louis 400 per cent

than any other city in the Union.

young men standing by attempted to rescue her
from the men who were dragging her along, and

Missouri LEAD-NeW Avenue Of Irdde.--Three
ilatboat loads of lead, from Missouri, arrived at
Fort Smith, Arkansas, on the 9th inst, command
ed by an old and experienced waterman from Cow
skin, tributary of Grand River. The lead was
from mines worked near Neosho, Newton county,
Missouri. 1t is said that the mines are very rich,
and will afford very handsome profit to the COM
pany. Neosho lies about twenty miles from Cow.
skin river, and about twentyfiv or thirty from
Grand River. The lead will have to be boated
down Grand River, in faIboats, thence down the
Arkansas river. This lead was consigned to the
house of johnson d Grimes, of Fort Smith.

SEWER county, Arkansas, valuable. When
they are worked, their products will also come
down the Arkansas, and Fort Smith itself-now
improving very rapidly, will beome mine of
wealth.
