I find that « train leaves for Vera Crus to-morrow, which will be the only opportunity of sending for some time, a8 ‘DO person can travel upon the roads in this country ex- cepting in large numbers. and then armed = The train in which I came up consisted of 276 five horse wagons, and 3.000 syldiers. We were attacked but drove offthe party ud Savta Anna at their head Three or four prisoners were takev; among them was the corf-ssor of Santa Anns. Being within eighty miles of the capital, we ex- pect soon to * Revel in the Halls, ko” This is, | belivve, the second eity in the kingdom—it contains about $0,000 inhabitants, and very nearly ag churches. There is a church or convent upon e block, monke end priests the streets; hats are } to one or the other continually, and thechurch bells keop up @ tintamarre night und dey. Thereare six thousand of us here in a rich and populous city, the inhaLitants of whieh wight in hour riso and a delightful residence for. an American, it isa dan- gerous one. Noone goes across the street without being armed, aud rumors are continually affoat of risings in the city. 1 am grieved to aay that we are somewhat dis- satisfied at the way in which things are conducted among us. Mex! are taken prisoners at Vera Crus and set at liberty ; retaken at Cerra Gordo, and again set at liberty. Punishment to American citizens and soldiers is frequot and severe, while tne Mexiean robber, assas- sin and thief, goes scot free, or is rewarjed Mexican thieves are taken up daily, (and they are all robbers and thieves,) and I have er known a single instance of punishment, while we have seeu, for theft, aud even for leas crimes, white men, Americans, have their heads shaved, and being whipped, paraded the street to gra- tify the scoffs a1 eers of & miserable Mexican throng. {thas become a by-word in the army, thats Mexican rascal is rewarded tor what an American would be se- verely punished Our men are daily stabbed und poisoned by the Mexicans ; and what is done to the per- petra Why, he may possibly be kept in comfortable quarters for a short time, where he is better fed and todged than he ever was before, and then set at liberty. We whip them in fight, but they whip us every other way. We hire Santa Anna’s houses, buy his grain to feed cattle, which may become their's or his whenever any of them wish it. What the object of this warfere is none ot us know. We fight because our duty tells us to obey orders; but, us Americans, we claim to know what is the object. ‘Why are we obliged to le in the open air without tents, when our enemies have a plenty of houses, convents, and even public buildings, which, of course, belong to us. We seize an article of public pro- perty, some shy Mexican comes along and claims it as private property, and it is handed to him without in- quiry or ceremony by our commanding officer. Under these circumatances, you ask, when will the war close? It may close for want of an enemy to fight; but a6 to peace, it may be said that it will never be made — ‘The Mexicans would be great fools to do #0, for they over knew better times, and a would only throw them back into the hands of their old masters. Now they have no taxes, no duties, no burthens to bear. All this is done for thom by the good-natured Yankees, who are sneered at for their pains. Seud us down, for God's ‘sake, some one who has 4 little less military skill, if you will, but @ little more common sense. Send him as Lieu- tenant General, or Captain General, and soon, or the husty place ofsoup will never be eaten in the White House. We are now reduced to the extremity of being obliged to remain where we are, for a long time yet, for want ef troops. We have taken this town, and reaped no benefit from it, and the day that we leave for Mexico, it will again be @ Mexican city, more flonrishing und with more money than Santa Anna wants to support his army for along time. We must leave it behind for him Ido not know how soon reinforoe- ments may arrive, but we are anxiously expecting them, to enable us to march on to Mexico, which we can reach in about six days, It is said thut Santa Apna is strong ly fortitied at Rio Frio, (or Cold or Frozen river) a dan- gerous place to pass. He is said to have 20,000 troops with him; if so, 1 look upon him as one of the greatest men in existence, by way of ingenuity and resources, No other man in Mexico could raise an army after the repeated losses he has sustained. I doubt, however, his ability to raise men in such quantitics, as under such cireumstances,we should scarcely have marched through the country with so little molestation.. The castle of Perote. the celebrated Perote, where so mapy have pined away in long confinement, had not a man to defend it, and with all its. strong walls and deep ditches, heavy guns, and beautiful field pieces, cost not aman. The cross is still standing, and the bleached bones lie uncovered at its foot, in the deep mout where prisoners were tied and shot. | hope our general will #0 far forget his policy as to send afew of the curious little guns home which we tound there; aud if his conacience reprove him for taking any thing from the Mexicans without pay, why he can pay them ag well as for a load of straw or corn, or an ass, which they value much higher, Verote surprised me somewhat. | had always beenac- eustomed to think of castles on high hills, or mountains. ‘Tho strength of Perote is quite the reverse. Upon a plain of some miles in extent, beautifully cultivated, and presenting to the eye every species of verdure. from the yellow harvest, through the different shades of interme- diate colors, to the young sprout just issuing from tbe soil, Perote stands alone, commandiog the country for miles around—a wall, a deep ditch, auother wall, and then the cast jounting guns of every size, from one tof rty pounders, There are also two or three eighteen inch mortars, in bronze, ag well as mupy finc guns, of the sane metal, Most of its brass field pieces were lost at Cerro Gordo, where they wore bruised and burnt by the Americans, and yet remain. | looked through this oustle with @ great deal of interest, from the wales | had read of sulfuring within its walls e The New York regiment, stationed hore, sends home three of its officers for recruits.

It is suid that two or three of the officers did aio, Lieut. Richwrd, no captain. fought as though he loved it, and Willis, poor Wiilis, is now lying very luw at Jalapa—I fear never Lo recover. We despise our enemies, as possessing the most de- graded qualities of our race, ‘heir intentions are ax dark as Ubeir swarthy faces; and yet they are courted and coressed.

In the afternoon tho historioal discourse was delivered by the Rev. James W. Alexander, which was one of the most eloquont affairs of the kind that we have ever heard, and’ we regret that from exhaustion and over- exertion the author was not able to complete it. Ho doscanted in a forcible way on the origin of the college, and in doing so had necessarily to recur to the colonial history of the State of New J . and the causes which led to the establishment of the college. In the course of his remarks he traced the career of the col- lege, under the admi ration of its successive Prosi- dents, to the present time, which was listened to by the numerous auditory with profund attention. At the con- clusion of the exercises, a hymn com: for the occa- sion was performed by the choir. The exercises of the funlor class wore held in the evening, and gave gratify- ing proof of the improvement and progress of that por- tion of the students, The exercises yesterday were commenced with music by the band, and a prayer by the venerable President, after 4: eg following discourses by the students were de- ivered:— Wt.

"City Intell . Tie Wearuen.—The thermometer ranged up to 82 degrees ut Wall street yesterday. The day was agree ble, and the heat by‘no means oppressive. A gent breeze swept through the city, which was truly retresh- of the as they wish pg in one rolld »purehw: We most vatic Sewers.—Much activity prevails in many parts of our city. in constructing new sewers. Fulton Street. near the United States Hotel ; William street. in the vicinity of Wall; and James street, are now being nd several other streets are, at present. under- milar operation. These improvements will be appreoiated by the public; but if the filth and garbage at remain on these streets could be turned into the beneath, by some process or other, it would tend a“ f to benefit the citixens. We trust that some effort will be made to pave and improve our streets in ge- neral by our present corporation. Omyinus Racixo,—We have had eocasion, time and again, to notice the daring and reckless disregard of the omnibus drivers to the provisions of the city ordinances in relation to regularity among the many lines of stages, a8 well as to record the fatal result of these exhibitions in the shape of a broken limb or loss of life. We have again to notice the conduct of some of the many delin- quents in this way. On Thursday night. about 9 o'clock, another race “came off” between one of Murphy's stages, No. 229, and one of the Houston street stages. In this “trial of speed,” two ladies had a nurrow escape. We trust that an example will be made in some of these in- + pailtaama ag will bring the drivers to a sense of their duty. Sun Stroxe.—A man, name unknown, yesterday about three o’clock was sun struck in Hudson street, near Broome, whilst driving # cart. He was removed to the sidewalk, where by the timely application of ice to the temples, he recovered, and “ went on his way rejoicing.” Ax Honest Boy.—A small boy by the name of Robt. Andrews, found in the Parka Government deed for 106 acres of Jand, situated on the Miami River, Ohio, deeded to John Richmond Stokes. The boy, immediately upon picking it up, conveyed it to bis honor the Mayor, who deposited it inthe hands of bis clerk, Mr. Burdett, of whom the owner can receive his property upon ap- plication. Numpeaino tum Pie The Common Counoil re- cently passed an ordinance requiring the owners to erect at tho head of each pier, owned by them, pler poste, on or before the first day of August next, wo that they cun be marked and numbered regularly. The oats must be eighteen feet long, one foot six inches in diameter, and placed ten feet from the surface of the ground. This is an excellent movement, and we hope that the owners of the piers will comply promptly with the ordinance. Sxpvction.—We understand that a shocking case of seduction has recently occurred in this city. ‘The names of the partics are withheld out of regard to the feelings of the unfortunate victim, but thus much ma: be said, the seducer is an official in one of the Unite States government establishments here, a widower, and aman of mature age, old enougt it is sald to be the fu- ther of the seduced, who is'an orphan girl, accomplished and of good family. The villain has been practising his arts upon the unfortunate young lady for some time, and there {s positive evidence that he has at length suc: ceeded in accomplishing his unholy object under solemn romises of marringe, which he now refuses to perform. Je had arranged to dake hix vietim to Boston yester- day, where it is supposed that he designs plundering h.r of her little property, and,then consigning her to some den of infamy, an outcast lost for ever, If any judicial proceeding should be instituted in the matier by the friends of the unhappy young lady, and the names are thus brought before the public, we aball have some atro- cious details to spread before our readers. As it is, we forbear ; it would be cruel to add to the grief of an in- jured female by giving public exposure to her shame. Crime sooner cr later meets with its reward, and the seducer will inevitably meet with his deserts in the ulti- mate. Suicioe ny Drowxixc.—Coroner Walters was called yesterday, to holdan inquest at the corner of Morton aod West atreots, upon the body of Ganett Ce a tive of Now Jersey, aged 67 years, It ap deceased bad been at work at the bonded wareh. ure. in Broadway, from which pla was discharged about two weeks ago.

The unfortunate girl, from the violence and fright, was unable to walk; consequently a carriage was procured in order to convey her to the police office, by the advice of Dr, MeGaffney, who was called in to attend her. Upon being examined by the above doctor, it was ascertained that she had been orutally ravished, evidently done b; these rufflans. Justice Ketcham committed them all for examination.
