The War, &, INTERCEPTED CORRESPONDENCE. (From El Republicano, of 6th June.] The importance of the following document, lately in- tercepted from the enemy, induces us to publish it. It reveals the scarcity of means of our invaders, and shows that wo should not be discouraged in the prosecution of e war. A little constancy on our part, will suffice to vindicate our reputation, and let the world know, that we deserve to be free, and that ambition and good fortune are not the titles for the possession of Mexico. Orrice of THE QUARTERMASTER GENERAL, New Orleans, 13th May, 1847. Carrain:—In spite of my former calculations. I have not been provided with funds. On the 28th March, the Third Auditor advised me that I had $750,000 to my credit on his books, but I received no information from | the Treasurer on the subject. By a letter of the 12th, I was apprisod that Col. Stanton could not obtain the re- mittance, so that | cannot expect it, notwithstanding the many motives I had to rely on it.” An arrangement has been effeeted with Corcoran & Riggs, to provide one m of dollars at different periods, from 3d May to 28th June. nearly two months, and I need more than one million per month, and should have at least moment. | have received $150, 000 of the above, butit is asa drop ina bucket. 1 sent & share of it to Major Eastland, who wasin much want. 1 hear that $500,000 more have been received, but it may meet the same fate as the $760,000. If I obtain the amount, a part, ifnot all, will go by Montgomery, in the Massachusetts, or earlier—but at uny rate, I shall lose no time, ag Capt. Irwin wants one million in Vera Cruz, of which $500,000 to be drawn against, from the interior, in the course of the month. egret that you cannot obtain funds by drafts on me, but it is not to be wondered at, since most all the drafts that have been presented on me,I have to pay with bills on Col. Stanton, at Washington, and these are put into the hands of brokers at }¢ tol per cent dis- count, or else I have to let them remain unpaid, for want of funds. Some of the drafts | give are remitted. I be- lieve that matters will shortly mend. Draw upon me if you can; but if those who take them, are not willing to wait, express, on your drafts, that if it suits me, I shall pay them in bills on Washington. Between sending specie trom here, and obtaining it in your place by drafts, the latter would be prefered fe, be- cause the risk and expense would be avoided. I deposited, on the 25th instant, $20,000 to your credit, in the Canal Bank, which I have probably omitted to advise you, as! have been very busy. .

Dusti, June 18, 1847 Repeal Asseciation—Messes for 0 Connell—Meeting of the Irish Council—Its Principles—Harvest Prospects —Potatoes—Arrivals of Provisions—Railways and Fisheries—Fever—Theatricels, I anticipate my usual weekly letter, to give the latest news, the mail leaving at five tbis day for America, The Repeal Association met as usual on Monday, Mr. John Reynolds in the chair In the preliminary re- marks he addressed to the meeting, he stated that in a journey of seventy miles through King and Queen’s counties, some days before, he was shocked to see corpses covered with blankets, &o., and thus carried on carts, without coffins, to their graves; and numbers of the poor were engaged in gathering the weed “prasugh”” in the field, which sprinkled with salt, was to be pre- pared for food. Mr. John O'Connell then proceeded to the main business of the day. He read a letter of Rev. Dr. Higgins, of Ardagh, accompanied by subscriptions tothe amount of £20, reoommending that for some Sunday the several priests should exhort their = ‘hat they gations to contribute to the repeal funds, and should assemble the collectors after chapel, receive, audit, and enter in the account books of the association, all sums thus received. This proposition seemed to be reoeived con gmere by Mr. John O’Connell, who ex- Dressed his opinion as to the certainty of ite adoption, and the entire dependence of the association, hence- forth, upon the cler; ‘Tyesday being the 30th day after the death of Mr. Connell, ar honorary mass was performed in the Chapel of St. Andrews, Westland Row, Dr. Murray. Titular Archbishop, officiating; similar services took place in other parts of Ireland. Politics, or what are called polities, religion, and personal interests, are so blendes cogstiiee in,all relating to the ©’Connell family, that it is difficult to distinguish where one ceases and the other begins. Exertion for repeal, or the advance- ment or vindication of a nation’s weal, is again about being lost sight of in the strife for the predominance of an individual, the prostration of a political opponent, or in the unavailing struggle for sectarian ascendancy.— The rent of the week amounted to £36 118, 9d. ‘The Irish Council met according to adjournment on Tuesday, the 15th inst., Chetwood, Esq, in the chair. Several noblemen and gentlemen of high rank attended. Mr. Butt,the eloquent barrister,in an able speech, de- veloped the policy and principles of the council, the care and encouragement of the interests of Ireland, and her manufactures, agriculture, fisheries, &c.; the tenant's right to compensation for improvements was recognized, At the close of the meeting, an address was read, direct- ed to the several constituencies of Ireland. A’ partial extract will give a better understanding of its nature than a lengthened description:—“ That the conatituen- cies should send as their representatives the advocates of whatever political opinions they pleased, but let those advocates be men of ability, and uprightneas, men oon- vereant with the wants of the country, and ready to fling aside party interests wheré those interests conflict with the interests of Ireland.” ‘This portion of the address seems to contain something like what the law- yers call a “negative pregnant”; in fact, now that O'Connell is no more, all parties are protesting against the inefficiency of former Irish members, and assert that by their errors, both of omission and commission, dis- credit has been brought and suffered to rest upon the character of Irishmen and Ireland; and yet it cannot be expected that all at once unobjectionable representa- tives will anew be generally returned. Men uplifted b O’Connell’s hand, and ‘accustomed to hide thelr short-comings under the shadow of his name, will still desire a measure of support from its reflection. Meantime, alihough the elections are at hand very little apparent activity yet prevails.— In Cork, where the writ is said to have arrrived, a can- didate bas yet been scarcely named. In Dublin, where the electors, according to a return moved for in the House of Commons by Smith O’Brien, exceed 33,000, from the consequent expenses, it is supposed the sitting memBer will be returned without opposition. In Gal- way, Mr. O'Flaherty, the late candidate, is expected by his supporters to be able to supplant the Solicitor Gene- ral. Other candidates, without sufficient certainty, are named for other constituencies, Concerning the prospects of the coming harvest, the most cheering accounts still continue to be received, and the accounts still mention no appearance of a blight in the potatoes; it is now generally understood that the diseas of last year has net yet made its ap- pearance, and the weather continues to be of the most favorable character up to the present. Advices from Cork have been received, that a large fleet of merchantmen have reached the harbor from the Mediterranean, America, and other ports, loaded with breadstuffs to the amount of 9,797 tons, and hundreds of vessels aro further | expected; among others, tho William Dugan, from New York, with The ship American, Capt. J. P. Levy, got away yes- terday for Vera Cruz.

We left Cleveland on Thursday at 2 o’clock, P.M. The day was intensely hot, and the burning sands of the town made a longer stay any thing but agreeable. Cleveland is @ beautiful place—situated upon the high bank of Lake Erie, overlooking her beautiful wa- tors, which wash its sandy base, and bears off on her bosom the products of its rich surrounding country, unequalled in fertility by any soil beneath the sun. The streets of Cleveland cross at right angles, are very wide and straight, lined on either side by trees of maple and locust, and extend cut into the country as far as the eye can reach—studded by mansions, the elegance and splendor of which would ornament Union square or fifth avenue, while the heauty and fragrance of their yards and flower gardens charm the eye and delight the senses, s4The Empire is solong, and the harbor so narrow, we were obliged to back out, and run far astern before we could yet sea room enough to head towards Detfoit. From Cleveland we bore northwest, until we made the Canada shore, ang ran between it and Port au Pla: Inland, just as the sun was sinking into the forest. It impossible to describe the scene that now presented it- self. If there is any thing in the world beautiful, it is one of these elegant three story steamers, winding her way slong &® deep narrow river, where the tall forest trees hem the shore, But when islands rise ke castles, or sit Like tufts of moss upon the surface of the clear, calm waters, and the setting sun is throwing up his red light, like @ burning volcano, and tinging the clouds with a golden bue, and the fragrance of far off fields is wafted lo one’s senses, by the gentle breeze of « summer te the scene is perfectiy intoxicating, and the idea of describing itis common-place, and not to be thougbhtas, As darkness gathered around, the passen- gers withdrew to the cabin, and joined ina dance. Here again, to those who are fond of the giddy: whirl and ex- hiliraling music, is another source of pleasure, The cabin of the Empire is one unbroken saloon of two hundred and forty-six feetin length. Her machi- nery being all below, leaves this the lougest and most splendid ball or dining room in the United States, At ten o'clock we touched the dock at Detroit, making the passage from Buffalo in twenty-four hours, Here many of the delegates took the Central railroad across higan, ‘anxiety of each party to “head off” the othe s too great to admit of dela were resolved to be on hand early. ‘I C.

In the night n slowly into the mud on St. Clair fais, which detained us two hours. At sunrise we stopped some three hours again on the Canada ride, to tuke on an hundred cords of wood, This gave the pas- sengers an opportunity to ramble sbout the fields and forest to whet up an appetite for breakfast. At ten @clock we emerged into Lake Huron, and at night Joyed again one of those beautiful sunsets seon nowber: in such gorgeous night we crossed moored under the fort at yar Macinac. It is perfeotly love- ly hereto-day. The stmenehoee is cool and delightful, while « warm sun and bright skies tend to render it the most charming snmmer resort in the world. We made the run from Buffalo in a ore ay. Our accommodations have been equal to that of the best New York hotels, and the price that board; while the scenery and the sail have & eargo consigned for distribution to the Society of Friends. The effect of these large arrivals on pricescan scarcely as yet be calculated. In Dublin, prices are still maintained. The Northern Whig, Betfast, contains an sccount of an auction, on, the 14th, of Indian corn, In- dian meal, (white) 248. 6d. to 268. per barrel; Indian corn, (white,) £12 16 per ton; American flour, 39s. 6d. to 40n, barrel; of the flour, 800 barrels were sold. A Cork paper anticipates that if the potatoes escape, and the grain crops ripen as they promise, that Indian corn, after harvest, may be had for £6 per ton; but | apprehend that this tation is tno sanguine, even under the most le circumstances. The great difficulty anticipated. is the want, to the poor, of a mo- ney medium of exchange. In Dublin, it has been said that money merchants would only consent to negotiate the most upquestionable bills at 15 per cent discount.— From published accounts of the Bank of Ireland, it ap- pears that for the four weeks ending 22d May, 1847, its circulation was less, by # million and a hal answering four weeks of the preceding ye parties will account differently for the fact. way and fishery lows are yet undeciaed, and fears, as tioned in iny last, are entertained of their rejection. ‘The great Southern and Western railway, as far as Ma- ryborough. has been inspected and approved of by the authorities, and will open for traffic early next month. Still later advices have reached us, that upwards of 20,000 tons of bread stuffs have reached Cork. There are in the harbor upwards of 230 vessels, of all tonnage, bearing from their mast heads the flags of all coun. tries. A private letter from Hobart town, Van Die. man’s land, makes mention that £5000 has been con: tributed there for the relief of the distressed Irish, and that a vessel is chartered with wheat, for the same destination. Fever is still in some localities on the increase, in others its violence is abating; in Cork it has decreased; in Galway increased, fever sheds being creoted at the back of the fever hospital. In Belfast it still seems most violent; 1,495, by last accounts, wero in the hospital in Sligo; there were 400 cases of typhus, double the num- ber, in the district. In Dublin, several meetings of the citizens, of a precautionary character, have taken lace. Fever, as yet, has caused no serious alarm in Dublin; at no time, did that scarcity prevail as in the provinces and remoter districts. ‘The copy of an opinion given by Sergeant Warren, our greatest equity lawyer, has been published in this morning’s papers. A committee, composed of the mino- rity of the Dublin Municipal Corporation, has prepared & case for his consideration regarding the mal-adminis- tration and improper expenditure of the borough funds; it ia decidedly in favor of the course of opposition the intend on. James Whiteside, the distinguished Iris barrister, has reached Ripon from the Continent, where he was sojourning for the recovery of his health. It is anid that £1000 was offered Mile. Jenny Lind for performing at two concerts in Dublin. The pro i was not closed with, not that the offer was considered insufficient, but from other causes We have but one theatre open in Dublin at present, and it is but moderately attended. Concerts are given, however, very frequently, and the performances at some of them are of a high character of merit.

The French adage, “ It est partout comme chez nous,” is, unfortunately for the enthusiastic tra- voller, too generally applicable; and the desire of seeing the great cities of the continent is too frequently fed with dreamy illusions, until anxiety is raised to the highest pitch by the enchantment of distance,only to be wofally disappointed by stern reality, And even the eculiarity of Venice is but another phase; in approach- fag “the glorious city in the sea,’ the well known, “ Have a cab, sir,” from a thousand stentorian throat, gi y to the more romantic, “ Have a gondola, sir,’! and the crack of the whip is replaced by the splashing ot the oar.
