DETECTION OF THE MEXICAN GENERAL, Yn,rnnJ.
"A private letter from Vera Cruz bv the last
steamer, contains the following incidental para
graphs
''The most important event, of recent date, for
the liberal party has been the re-establishment of
order in the north without the eilusian of blood
''The detection of Vdaurri, at first, was the sub
Ject OF great rejoicing among the re-actionists in
asmuch as they very naturally reasoned that the
retirement OF that general and his forces would so
far weaken the defences of the frontier that thev
might walk in without opposition.
"But the event has proven otherwise. The de-
lection OF Nidaurri, originating in a personal quar-
rel, was great mistake. No one cared about him
except so far he was representative of the
liberal party. This is an age OF principle not of
men; and, conseI tly, the people are only the
more enthusiastically Lying to the constitutional
standard.
"Be assured, the church and the reaction must
fall, and that soon, never to rise again"
Oar correspondent is n native Mexican, n resi-
dent OF Vera Cruz, and in daily communication
with tho Juarez cabinet also with the President
himself 1t is certain, therefore, that the liberal
government are not discouraged by recent events
to us seemingly adverse, but rather chat they
gather new courage, whatever be its fortune, as
| the campaign advances.-Ne0 Orleans Picayiuc.

DntENsIoNs OF THE New OcEAy SrnAusurr.-Thc
new ocean steamship, which it is proposed to build
at Buffalo, to travel one hundred miles an hour, is
to be Of the following Dimensions:
Length (threequarters ofa mie) ,....... LOCO feet
mluth'-..-. 7@4
Deplh ...,............. G2
Each end is to be constructed alike, in the form,
OF a wedge. This wedge form is $50 feet long,
leaving the parallel portion POO feet in length
To steady the vessel fins are attached 500 feet i0no
to each Of the ends. These fins impart strength
possess great buoyancv, and are used for the pur-
pose of surface condensation Each tin has va
cuum equal to a room 90 feet wide, 10 feet deep
and $500 feet long. The walls are doubla. The
outer one is 4 inch in thickness, the inner one but
4 inch thick, and each part Of those walls is to
reach from the bottom to the top Of the vessel
The space between the outer and inner wall is di-
vided into artght sections three feet square so If
the outside wall be broken there can but little wa
ter ent r. The entire ship is built in ar-tight sec
tions, and if broken in two no lives will be endan-
gered. There are six wheels on each side placed
800 feet apart. The first II feet from the ends is
composed of solid iron weighs &c tons, and taken
the weakest way, will suspend a weight Of 2,2SS
tons.
The CArToL.-We find the preparations for the
coming meeting of Congress about as forward as
usual at this period Of the year. The new circular
benches in the Hall Of Representatives are finished
and a fresh and cheerful carpeting is something
more than halfl down. The new plan of seat
ing the members leaves vacant large section of
the hall on the extreme right and left of the Speak
er, and the desired object viii be secured of hav-
ing the House more directly in front of the pres-
ding officer Large tables have been constructed
and placed along the spaces around the margin Of
the hall 70" the accommodation of members who
may desire to write. TO all appearance very
few days will suffice to have the Hall Of Reprgser-
tativcs in order for the session. There having been
no changes Of note to be made in the Senate Cham
Der, it is not yet put in order but, as every thing
is at hand, day or two will no doubt be sufficient
for that purpose. The lobbies, passages and ways
OF both Houses have been, in great measure, dis
encumbered Of the sc9iiolding, planks, and other
appliances necessary during the processes Of resco-
ing, plasterng, tessellating, &c, whereby an ex-
animation of the noble editice is much more graft
flying than heretofore. The work on the dome is
going steadily forward, and makes as much show as
an undertaking great and demanding so much
time and labor could be expected to do at this stage
of its gress.-Na,ioaal hteHigencer.
