Reported Ericud1y Fceiing Of the
Mcricau Gorc,wmeast Tomards Lin
coin.-The Cincinnati Gazette says
that it is enabled to state on the ;,u-
thority of private letter from Gov.
Corwin, at Mexico, dated 2Gth June,
and Just received there, that the ma
ture of the troubles in the United
States are now well understood by
the people Of Mexico, and that all the
leading minds are favorable to the
National Government. The Mexican!
Congress has exhibited this in a sub
stantial manner by (; decree granting
our Government the right to marcl
troops over Mexican Territory, i:
necessary, in operations in the South
West. The Gazette is not at libertS y
to state the PLACES named in the de
cree. 1t was passed in secret session
by an unanimous vote. A copy ha;
been transmitted by Gov. Corwin t.
the State Department at Washing
| ton.
The Gazette further says:
The efforts which the Confede
rates made to forcstall the favor O
Mexico, to furnish ports for their pri
vateers and prizes, have entirely fail
ed, and in spite of their treacherou
advances, Mexico has made close
alliance with the National Govern
ment.

Can't Help Complaining.

We have often heard of, and ex-
perienced, humbug arrangements in
the postal department, but really the
existing state of affairs, is about as
farcical an affair as could be brought
upon theatrical stage. The public
is not only deprived, but in plain
terms is robbed of what they are
justly entitled to, and for which they
pay round sum in the aggregate.
1t would appear that the moro new
arrangements are effected for the pub
lie good, the facilities afforded prove
considerably less.
Let us have proper arrangements
and efficient postmasters between
Vicksburg and this place, and if this
end cannot be accomplished, let us
drop the matter entirely. We want
good mail facilities, or none. The
idea of the Vicksburg mail being re-
turned to Vicksburg from Monroe, is
simply ridiculous and absurd; if a
postmaster knows no better than to
return a mail to the place from which
it was sent, instead of forwarding
the same to its destination, we think
it time to pry into the meaning OF
such a course of procedure.
Further, it is a rule in the post-of-
flee department, to let none assist III
the distribution of a mail, at amy
post-otfice. except sworn deputy
How is then, that we hear of non
observance of this all important rule!
We are informed that a certain post
office between this point and Nicks,
burg, which we do not recollect at
this moment, empties the mail bags
when received and permits every,
body to help themselves. Why not
empty it in the street, or road. this
would be still more accommodating
: We hope that this Will be the las
time that we shall have to find iaul
with our postal affairs. Come, gen
tlemen, attend strictly TO your duty
and if you cannot prevent the incom
ing of hungry news-seekers into you
Office, don't open the mail bags, bu

tect the property Of the public; for
to distribute mails as at present, is a
bad as not to do it at all Bear ,hi

Feeling on tie Battle Field.-A
French officer, who was wounded in
the Crimean war, gives the following
experience Of a soldiers feelings on
the battlefield. He says:
Before the battle begins, it is usual
to feel no little tremor, and many
cheeks which are known to be in
communication with stout hearts
blanch visibly. AS the conflict be-
comes imminent, courage returns,
and with the first flow of blood an en-
thusiasm is raised which constantly
increases, and very seldom flags
until the last shot is fired. The eff
feet of seeing a comrade shot down is
generally to excite an unappeasable
vengence against the foe, though, IN
the end, one gets used to it.
When wounded less than mortally,
it is not usual for the soldier to be
Immediately aware of the fact unless
some bones are broken. a sabre
may be run through the heshy part
of the body, and even a bullet lodged
in dangerous proximity to the vltals'
and he for sometime be total y uncon-
scious of even scratch. When life
is taken by a single blow, the effect
is varied with the nature oftlle wound,
as well as the temperament of the
man. Sometimes the poor fellow will
leap high in the air, giving piercing
scream, and again he viii! sink quiet
| " down. Oftener however, he sim
ply falls dead without a struggle. II
most cases, the features of the killed
remain unchanged for a long time at:
ter death-eycs open and brilliant
and perchance Il smile Illuminating
the face. To see such a one, it i:
difficult to realize the presence of tn,
grim monster death.
