AMERICA.  ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC.  BY the United States mail steam-ship Pacific, Capt. Nye, which arrived on Sunday morning, we have intelligence from New York to the 17th instant. She brought 148 passengers, and £4OO in specie.  On the 19th instant the Pacific saw the Jeremiah Thompson, in lat. 41.13, lon. 66.52, bound west ; on the 21st, at two, p.m., passed steamer Hermann, from Southampton to New York, in lat. 47.46, lon. 49 ; and at midnight, on the 25th, passed U.S. mail steam-ship Baltic, hence to New York, in lat. 61.50, lon. 24.49. The Herald states that there is no truth in the report that the government had demanded the recall of Mr. Crampton ; but the New York Daily Times asserts that it is perfectly true. Since the Pennsylvania election an opinion has gained ground at Washington that Mr. Buchanan's turn has come for the presidency, and that he cannot be denied. astAanatorntutog-bpioeacte, tegS.,enoec. lath, eealpeltohdedinshthenr tb. oilers, and : A captain (Donaldson) was Laic uw urr or Li. 1,,,At dna the engineer were both severely injured. A powder mill at Gorham, Maine, owned by. Newhall and Co., of Boston, took fire on the 12th instant, and blew up, killing seven men and wounding several others. The Cincinnati Enquirer says that out of the 265 United States soldiers in the barracks at Newport, 20 deserted during the past two weeks. It was rumoured that agents of the British government had been instrumental in inducing these desertions, by offering large premiums to the soldiers if they would enlist for the Crimea.  Dr. Hadel, of Cumberland, Md., and his clerk, named Graff, were both murdered on Sunday, the 14th instant, near that place, by a German. They were enticed out to attend a sick woman, and their bodies were found on the 16th, horribly mutilated. The murderer has been arrested, and the clothing, watch, and pocket-books of the victims were found in his possession. The doctor was formerly commissioner of health in Baltimore. The head of Dr. Hadel was found buried at some distance from his body. It seems that after the murder of the doctor, the murderer enticed his student, Graff, away, and then murdered him, so as to be able to rob the office, which he did on the same night. The murderer is a German pedlar, who broke out of gaol recently at West Alexander. Graff has a mother in New York. Hadel leaves a wife and two children, who were on a visit to Baltimore. . _ _  The trial of Wagner, charged with violating the neutrality laws by enlisting a man named Cook for service in the Crimea, was commenced on the 12th instant, in the United States District Court, before Judge Ingersoll. This was the first case tried for this offence in New York, and was looked to with great interest. There was a great array of counsel engaged for the defence. The jury, on the 13th, found the prisoner guilty. The penalty is not more than $l,OOO fine and three years' imprisonment. The case will be argued on points of law. Accounts from towns along the Mississippi River, in Louisiana and Mississippi, are still discouraging. The yellow fever rages with great fatality in Jackson, Miss., Vicksburg, Miss., and Donaldsonville, Louisiana. The latest accounts from Norfolk and Portsmouth state that the fever had almost entirely disappeared ; the weather was of a fine, bracing character, and business men were once rail across the Harlem morettuh renr ee rousingdlr eir.refugees. f usgele, eens . themselvesnevneatshe es t ofo of na fevercotwivi nmihtgyai all. mile apaNObayosontvrt there oolthewelnkreei t.imehol ere o'clock, bgkrst,ith instantrdwgra seeee., next. morning, as, the deaths,som einucnlukdnionxf unknown wnoliosfcrtehaennt efiwxattcae:saenas d. ormanii Sunday ouandd yr train,a night, abouthe t,attthe New a 3.(lw4ut ha ryitoielrrsktoafna approaching, the engine and one car came in contact with the above barrier, and were thrown off the track.
