(From the Times’ Correspondent. ] Mexico, May 29, 1847 After the rout of Cerro Gordo, Santa Anna, col- lecting what men he could at Orizaba, and’ from Oaxaca, pushed on to Puebla, where he arrived only two or three days before General Worth. The Pob- macs have never been very well disposed towards Santa Anna, and in the hour of adversity they gave him clearly t desired. fle was, therefure, obligea to evacuate the city, which was peaceably occupied by the forces of Worth on the 15th inst. When the Americans take possession of any of the Mexican towns, the post be Pyeen them and this place, ceases, by order of the Mex- feau government. Therefore, though so near Paebla, we know little of what is passing there. It would ap- pear, howaver, from the accounts of occasional travel- jers, that the Americans are on good terms with the townspeople. and that they have even succeeded in con- ciliating the religious orders—a step which, in a place 80 notorious for fanaticism, would have been extremely diffouit afew years ago. But latterly the church has deen so rudely assailed by each successive government here, that the clergy ate NOW well disposed to wave some antiquated prejudices in exchange for thy seoure and peaceable possession of their temporal goods, Since Gen. Scott's Victory a large number of yolun- teers (it is said 3,000) have returned to the United States, heartily sick of the expedition. The plan of hiring a body of men, not soldiers by profession, by the jo», to attack an enemy's fortress or to fight a battle, ‘and then return, bears the American stamp of origin: ty; and it ia a conclusive proof of Mexican weakn that the system has so far proved successful. The Mex, jeans were much pleased When Lord Palmerston exp: od his opinion in the House of Commons thut thei sistance would prove too strong for the United States; but their subsequent conduct bas certainly done no- thing to contirm it. Puebla, wit e population of 60,000, is held by five orsix thousand uadisctplined foreigners; andfor the maintenance of the extensive line to the coast, i ling the garrisous of Perote, Jalapa and Ve- ra Cruz, General Scott has probably a not much larger was announced from Vera Cruz that Scott's on this city would be supported by the march That General Se mover: of Gen, Taylor on Sau Luis Potosi, bat old * Rough and Ready” seems to wen left by his government with very sender means fur such an expedition. ‘Phe voiun- tevrs who held Chihuahua Lave inarched to join him, and itis now said that, instead of advancing on San Luis, he will proceed to Tampico, and embark there for Vera Cruz (rather a daagerous experiment for unaceli- mated men ut this season) to reinforce Gen, Scott. When Santa Anna abandoned Puebla, nothing re- mained for him but to retreat on this city, where he had reason to apprehend his reception would not be very cordial. In fact, his old political enemies seemed to think the ocoasion highly favorable for a pronuncsamen- | to, and before he had reached Ayotia (six leagues trom this) an organized conspiracy existed to deprive him of all intervention in public wflairs. General Valenci with whom he had quarrelled at San Luis, was proposed ag his suceessor in the command of the army. At Ayotla vd the Visits of some of the military and political leaders, whom, with his usual ability, he manned to gain over, and finally made his entry here, end assumed the Presidency, without mach affvetation sued, but also withoutopporition, Gen.

The more they are beaten, the less they are hurt. The less show of resistance they make, and the more promptly they run away, the more of their skins and lives they preserve intact. Their opponents get the glory—but what of that? ‘There they are, alive and jolly, fine materiel for future guerillas, whenever it shall please their rulers to make the second peace as in- effectual as the first. And so it may go on, ad infinitum, as far as human eyg can reach. It will be the French game of Algiers (with the exception that the Arabs fight), played over again in the western hemisphere; rather an expensive amusement, as the French know by this time. And this brings us to another consideration, which is the novelty of this position for the United States. If we except the contest with this country in 1812-14, it is the first regular war of any importance {n which the Union has been engaged. ‘During seventy years that have elapsed since that Union was formed, the young Repub- lic may be said to have been “on its good behaviour.” it grew ata giant's pace, but it promised to be an in- offensive, peaceful giant. who would never look crooked at any onc. The young Titan appropriated. largely, to be sure, but it was from the needy and the weak. France was cajoied into the sale of Louisiana. Spain was hustled out of the Floridas, ‘The red-men when refractory were punished rather cruelly; but who cared for that? On the whole the young giunt of a country, 40 far as keeping the peace wax concerned, promized to set good example to the old reprobates of the eastern hemisphere. Alas! ulithese pleasant illusions are at an end for ever, Seventy years are & respectable minority for a country, in these times of progress and precdcity.— Yankew-laud is come of age,and proves to be as unscrup'- lous a stute,and as dangerous # neighbour, as avy in ancient or modern history. A grossly unjust war is commenced against & weak and unoffending neighbour, one greatly more sinned against than sinning; witness the ‘Texas transaction, from first to last. A rapid thiret for conquest, # hunger for extended dominion, has seized upon the model republic, the cynosure of discontented democrats in every country in Europe; and behold, in- justice is rife as ever om this earth, and the pages of the ‘new world's history are bloodstained like those of the old, Let but a genius arise im America equal to these new emergencies, and the histories of Sesostris and of Cmaar may find their paratiel iu the West before the close of the present century. However, before a country, with the success of whose {natitutions 80 many of the bones of progress in human affairs were indentified, becow » irretrievably comauritted toa repetition of all thor: warlike abuses which had previously beeu deemed ti oxciusive reproach of the old world) it behoves une eover thinkers of the States, and all who are really attached to the permanence of the Union and of the republican institutions on which it is based, to retlect on the possible consequences of the new career on which the States are entering. ‘The permanence of those institutions, based as they are on Saxon ideas, and cemented by English law, must indeed be an object of solicitudeto all Englishmen who have any regard for constitutional liberty, or who take any pride in the spread of theirrace and language. And they, too, may ask themselves whether the constitution of theUnited States has yet had any trial at all which would warrant a cool observer in gual manency. Wedo not think it has, undoubtedly broad, and sound, and deeply laid = But is the superstrueture of a like stability? Are seventy of peace, prosperity, and self-expanding dominion an adequate test of that?) We cannot think so. A cot tution mucb less in accordance with the ideas and hal its of the people might have safely weathered all perils that have yet,assailed the boasted Union. In short, peace, and the occupations of peace, are not the test of republican institutions at all; no more than perfect calm is of a vessel’s strength and staunchness. It is the storm which tries and tests both the ship and the crew. it is war—war as a regular system, that is the only suffi- cient trial of a republic's vitality. Can it stand that trial—does it, after a long habituance to warlike influ | ences,continue a republic? Above all, if a federalism, can its members pursue unceasingly 2 common aim, and share among them cheerfully the losses and responsibi- lities which war brings in its train’? Blinded by a lyst for conquest, will these members, with interests so diver- sified as war may make them, never seek to inflict a deadly injustice on each other? And even if so agree- ing, will they never surrender their liberties to some war- | like demagogue—some new Cromwell or Napoleon of the West? Meantime, at this moment, what appears to be the prospect, as regards this unjustifiable war, into which some people allege that the States were dragged, mainly by the ambition of their President to renew his term of | oiice? Either, as we hinted above, the States must make up their minds to reconquer Mexico every two or three years, or they must hold the greater portion of that immense country by means of a permanent army of oc- cupation, dla mode d’digerie. The latter is said to be now the favorite project at Washington. A permanent army of 20,000 men is proposed to be supported by the produce of the new tariff which has been introduced at the ports which the States have occupied, and apparent- ly mean to retain. What a field is thus opened for indi- vidual ambition it were needless toexpatiateon. Gene- rails Taylor and Scott are already candidates for the Presidency. Polk's only hope of defeating both is said to lie in making them quarrel among ea.h | other about the management of the war. but if a | few paltry victories thus lift so suddenly to the pinnacle of popularity men hitherto unknown, how will it be when war has become ahabit, and the occupying army of 20,- 010 men has increased perbaps to 100,000, d la mode @ Algerie again. Jf a suily Marshal Bugeaud, cruel as Suwarrow, without his genius or loyalty, makes the dy- nastic Louis Philippe and bis minister shake in their shoes, when he fersakes for a while the scene of his bloody triumphs, how would it fare with the four years’ Presidency? Some future Rough and Ready might. per- haps, take it into his head to make himeelf the Yankee King of Mexico. Slave-holding Southern States, in high dudgeon with abolitionist Northerns, might prefer mon- arcby with slavery, to republicanism without it. ‘The realities of royalty, supposing the name still odious, | might by the bewildering influences of warlike renow: | become dear to the democratic heart of America ; ¢: | tremes having an acknowledged tendency to meet. And thus might virtual kings of Kentucky, and of Texas, of California, of Oregon, and Mexico, make quite an ther thing of America, than at present she threatens 0 be.

[From the Mark Lune Express, July 6.) The weather experienced since our last can scarcely be described as favorable; the last few days in partiou- lar have been dull and cold, and the temperature at night has fallen very low for the time of year. Vegeta- tion has, consequently, been somewhat retarded; but we are happy to say that the reports respecting the appear- ance of the growing grain crops are, up to this period, highly satisfactory. | The auspicious character of the accounts from all parts of the kingdom on this subject, the improved tone of the advices relative to the potato plant, and the continued large arrivals of corn, flour and meal at the leading maritime ports, have counteracted the effect which might otherwise have been produced by the smaliness of the supplies from the growers; and 60 far from any rally having occurred, an increased degree of depreesion has prevailed in the trade. Unimportant as are the stocks held by the millers and dealers, all par- ties have shown far more anxiety, to dispose of what they have still on hand than to e fresh purchases, and importers of foreign have been under the necessity of landing for want of buyers. This state of things may probubly last a week or two longer, and during that time the downward movement will continue. To deter- mine how long-prices may be depressed is scarcely pos- sible, as this will in a great measure depend on the wea- ther; but that a very demand must inevitably fol- low the present inactivity is certain. ‘The reduction in the value of wheat since our last has been considerable at most of the leading markets. ‘At Liverpool, on Tuesday, all articles were quoted much lower than on that day week; the decline on wheat was Isto ls 3d per 70 lba, on flour 2s 6d per bbl, and apring corn of every description was obtainable at’ pro- portionably reduced terms. Later in the week a fur- ther abatement took place; notwithstanding which the transactions were comparatively unimportant both on Tuesday and Friday. On the latter occasion, the very best brands of United States flour were offered st 368 per bbl. and fair qualities of Indian corn at 40s to 428 per 480 Ibs, ‘The fall at the other large consuming towns in the north has also been great, but not to the same extent a: at Liverpool, which may, however, be readily accounte: for by the magnitude of the foreign arrivals at that port. In the agricultural districts more firmness has been displayed than might have have been expected : the very dull advices from the chief markets of consumption hav- ing, in consequence of the smallness of the home sup- plies, had less effect than might otherwise have been pro- duced thereby. By the accounts from Scotland, it appoars t eather had, on the whole, been favorable, and ti are represented as promising. In regard to potatoes the reports are quite as conflicting as those the south; and we have come to the conclusion that very little is yet known on the subject. At Edioburgh, Glas- ow, and most of the other large markets, prices of grain ave given way material! during the week ; notwith- standing which buyers had, we are informed, acted on the reserve. From Ireland the reports are of a very gratifying char- acter; the potato disease would, it was thought, prove much less serious than was at first apprehended; and as for the grain crops, they were, it appears, going on as well as could possibly be desired. “rices" of provisions were consequently falling in all parts of the island. ‘The arrivals of English wheat into London do not in- crease, only 3,448 qrs. having come to hand coastwire during the week ending this (Saturday) evening. |The quantity brought forward at Mark Lane by land-car- riage samples from the neighboring counties has been equally unimportant; indeed little or nothing has been exhibited on the Essex, Kent, or Suffolk stands beyond that left over from Monday. Unimportant, however, as has been the supplies of home-grown wheat, the have proved more than sufficient to satisfy the demand, the millers having apparently determined not to buy a bushel more than needed for immediate use. On Wed- nesday scarcely a transaction took place; quotations were, consequently, nominal; and though u further reduction of 28 to 3s per qr., was submitted to on Friday, this concession failed to impart any activity to the ia- quiry. We have again to report a very liberal arrival of wheat from abroad, viz: 68,546 qra,. making the receipts of the past fortnight at this port 127,221 qrs. To dis- pore of any thing like this quantity from on board ship, in the existing position of the trade, has been quite im- possible, and a large proportion has already been taken to granary, with a view of awaiting a more favorable op- portunity to realize. The local, as well as the more dis- tant buyers, have kept aloof as much as their necessities have permitted; but as all parties are Working out of stock, a large demand may be expected as soon as prices are reduced to a point deemed safe by purchasers. The business done on Wednesday was of quite a retail cha- racter, and to succeed in effecting sales rates 2s to 3s, and in some cases even 4s per qr. below those of Monday had to be taken, Gn Friday the market was more nu- merously attended, but the inquiry was not much more lively, and purchases might have been made on still easier terms than the preceding day. ‘The sale for flour, whether of home or foreign manu- facture, has been exceedingly difficult throughout the week ; and though the nominal top price of the former has remained unchanged, all other sorts have been of- fered at less money. ‘This has been particularly the case in regard to American, if not perfectly fresh and sound ; | and even the very best brands have been offered 2s to 33 per bbl lower, 258 to 16s per bbl being extreme rates on day The arrivals of English barley have been on the same lintited scale as before, but the receipta from abroad have | been rather liberal, This grain appears not to be want- resent, and has certainly met with little or no at- teation this’ week. In the absence of business prices bave remained nominally unaltered, but lower terms wonid willingly have been taken if sales could thereby been facilitate What we have just stated about barley will also ap- ply to malt, in which nothing of the slightest interest has transpired since our last. Whilst only 359 quarters of oats have been received coastwise, and none from Ireland, the’ arrival of 63,189 quarters from abroad has prevented any thing like scarcity being felt. Thut the large dealers have work- ed very nearly out of stock iu anticipation of the Rus. sian supply cannot be questioned; but they still act on the reserve, being desirous of a further reduction ere they enter h to investments. Under these circumstances the market has heen unable to stand so large supply, and Riga oats, which were quoted 288 per quarter on Monday, have since been bold at 268 per quarter, and other sorts at corresponding prices. ‘The late arrivals of beans from Alexandria, and tie low rates at whieh these have been offered as compared with the terms asked for English, have naturally inter- fered with the disposal of the latter, of which hardly « sale has been made sage Monday. Egyptian beaus have also moved off slowly, though obtainable at 334 to 34s per qr. Peas have been quite neglected; and with triding re- cvipts the value of the articts has tended downward. Further important supplies of Indian corn have reach- od us, and there being at the moment no demand, it is impossible to give accurate qnotations. Some of the cargoes have come to hand in such wretched condition as to be only fit for feeding pigs. ‘The late dull advices from hence have naturally had a very depressing effect on prices of corn all over the continent; but according to the most recent accounts wheat was still relatively bigher, as well in the Mediter- ranean as in the Baltic, than in this country. A letter from Marseilles, of the 26th of June. informs us that that market had been well attended by buyers from the in- terior, which, with important shipments to Great Bri- tain and Belgium, had enabled sellers to clear off a con- siderable portion of the supply. The latter had, how- ever, been #0 large as to render any rally in prices im- orsible, and the tendency was then still downwards. — ‘urther arrivals from the Black and Azoff seas were Frow Palermo we learn, under date of 21st ult., that harvest operations had been commenced in that neigh- borhood. and that thers was every reason to expect a good yield both in point of quality and quantity.

The Paris Presse states, that new wheat has penned in the markets ofthe south. Inthe entire of the depart- ment of the Up Garoone the ears of corn are thick and heavy, and all accounts coincide in considering th: quality of the grain as excellent. In the Gers the yest is completely terminated. In the Girond le the ha vest was saved with the most favorable weather. wheat was offered for sale on the 34 inst. at La Reol and at Nerac. The price of wheat had, in consequence, fallen rapidly, ‘The produce of the present year has been sold at ‘Marmande at 21f. thehectolitre. New pota- toes have been offered for sale at several markets. The weather had become extremely warm in France. In Paris, at 9 o’clock on Monday mening, the thermometer (Fabrenheit) indicated 90 cane temperature. breese subsequently sprang up, and, although the weath- er remained beautiful, lowered the heat, by 20’clock, to |- 88 degrees. Buvssxxs, July 12.—The eondition of the lower classes is difficult to describe. The famine which has existed for the last four months, is happily drawing to # close; they are, however, still compelled to eat the flesh of horses, which they seem yet to relish, though it costs them nearly one penny per pound. poor creatures who have been able to sow and nt early pota- toes, are in the highest spirits, and while at their meals bless God for granting them wholesome food onze more. Broad, however, remains still too dear for them to pur- chase. On tho 9th inst. the com market at Eccloo ex- perienoed a decline totally un dented. Rye fell 14s. asack; barley and wheat likewise declined, as well as batter, eggs and poultry Potatoes were sold at the rate of 234d. per stone of about 7 Ibs. (3 kilogrammes.) Rus- sian Grain—The surplus quantity or grain, including rye, meal, buckwheat, beans and peas, which will remain for exportation from St Petersburgh this year (exclu- sively of the growin; ty d is estimated at 5,000,000 chetwerts, or about 371,400 quarters, among which are 2,000,000 wheat. CoLocNu, July 10.—In the valley of the Rhine harvest has already begun with cutting barley andrye. An abundant crop of both is confidently expected. They are pe placed beyond the reach of hall storms or other in- jury. Loypon Coan Excnanae, July 14.—The accounts from all parts of the kingdom continue to give very favorable reports of the progress made by the growing grain crops to maturity; and if the present forcing weather last much longer we may expect harvest operations to be pretty yenerally commenced in the south «bout the close of the month. Whether a more gradual ripening of the grain would not have been more beneficial may be ques- tioned, such extreme heat as that lately experienced being calculated to cause the corn to turn too suddenly. At the sameftime we must remark that the complaints of blight and red gum are on the increase, ough these accounts are probably exaggerated, still wo fear that the yield of wheat may not prove so plentiful as could be wished, At all the markets held since Monday, ices of wheat have tended upwards; indeed, the rise in some instances has been important, and nowhere less than 2s to 3s per quarter. The cause of the advance has been the inadequacy of the supply to meet the consump- tive demand, the deliveries from the growers having nearly ceased. At our market to-day thero was very little English wheat on sale, anda clearance of the Essex and Kent stands was speedily made at prices rather ex- ceeding those of Monday last. Foreign wheat was taken toa fair extent by buyers from different parts of the country, at rather above previous prices. The business in flour was not of much importance, but the late ad- ‘American was well maintained. Barley, beans, peas, and Indian corn were but little inquired for, and quotations of these articles remained much the same as in the beginning of the week, The arrivals of oats were quite moderate, and having again rather an improved inquiry, former rates were slightly exceeded, particular. ly for good fresh parcels of Riga. Juty 510 10.—There has been rather more firmness in the corn market since the sailing of the Britannia; and were it not for the splendia weather whicn prevails, no doubt speculators would make a more determined and successful effort to maintain higher prices. On the 6th, the show of wheat by land carriage samples from the high counties was very small (more H reeipcorar td from Essex); the quantity exhibited proved, neverthe- lesa, more than equal to the demand, and before any progress could be made in sales a reduction of 8s per quarter on the currency of that re (epee ate had to be submitted to, andeven at that decline the stands were not cleared, Fo wheat met with little attention, but there was less pressure than might have been ex- pected, considering the extent of the supply. Many im- rters refused to submit to so great a fallas that on English, but the sales effected were at quite that de- cline. The top price of flour was sack, and other qualities recorded in proportion; good brands of American being offered at 34s to 36s per bbl. ‘The operations in barley were on & strictly retail soale, the low price of Indian corn, &c., interfering with the sale. In the finer kinds nothing whatever was don: and the rae descriptions were at least 2s per qr. lower than on that day se’nnight. On the 7th the trade exhibited more firmness, and millers paid the prices of the previous market day for the extremely quanti- ties purchased by them to supply their immediate wants; but no action in the late material decline can be said to have occurred. There is a small demand for the bert brands of American flour by the bal at from 34s to 378 per barrel, being, according to weight and qua- lity, considerably lower than 658 per sack for town-made flour, its value, at the present prices, of the best sum- ples of English wheat. Lonvon Conn Manxet, Mark Lane, July 1d—We have but short supplies of English wheat; of foreign the re- ceipts amount to about 11,400 quarters. We experienced a good demand for the latter article at the extreme rates of Monday last. The buyers were chiefly mer- chants and millers from the north of England. Barley and peas unaltered in value, Oats met a fair retail de- mand, at improving prices. Beans were 2s dearer. Loxvon Avenaces—Wheat, 863 1d; barley, 488 4d; oats, 288 3d; beans, 60s 9d; peas, 558 1d. Lonpon Conn _Manxet—Marx Lane, July 9.—The arrivals of English wheat since Monday bave been tri- fling in the extreme: from abroad about 16,300 have been received.

Livervoot, July 9.—The arrivals into this port, since Monday last, contain ® good supply of wheat, flour, In- dian corn, and corn meal from abroad; but, with the ex- ception of a fair quantity of malt, we have little to note either coastwise or from Ireland. A few thunder show- ers on Wednesday morniag, and several more yesterday, appeared to give the weather an unsettled ipert, con- firming the improved tone of business experionced on ‘Tuesday, aud promoting an extended demand, partly speculative, for wheat, Indian corn and flour, each of these articles acquiring # moderate advance ‘upon the current rates of that day. Having a good attendance of English and Irish millers at this day’s market, the wheat trade in general continued to exhibit a firm appear- Kuoo, and’ Hoewiibetapding the ‘felts, noticed So the foregoing report, have been hitherto’ of important benefit to all the coming crops, good useful qualities of wheat were in fair demand, and 3d to 4d per 70ib over ‘Tuesday's rates freely paid. American ficur, being still in lively request, realized 18 per ‘advance, prime western brands commanding 37s, and at the close of the market few importers were incli1 to sell at the amend- ment. In beans there was rather more business doing than at an earlier period of the week, but without any change in prices. Peas quite neglected. Barley and malt, upon a limited sale, barely sustained our last quo- tations. Oats and oatmeal duil, and the turn low Indian corn, good fresh parcels moving off rather freely for Ireland, must be noted Js per 4801b dearer; and in- ferior kinds, being more saleable for feeding purposes, obtained a similar amendment. Livervoos, July 13.—Since last Tuesday there have been large arrivals from the United States and European ports of wheat, flour, Indian corn and meal, and of beans from Kxypt. ‘There has not been a vessel report- ed from Canada within the week. The imports from Ireland and coastwise are still very light, in comparison with the extent of exports. The weather, with occa- sional showers and thunder storms, has been favorable for the growing crops; if anything, perhaps it has been too closely hot and forcing. The week’s business has not been large, but, upon a fair daily demand from the country, holders of wheat and flour have been enabled to obtain advancing prices, and at the close of the week the improvement was 3d to 4d bushel on the former, and 1s. 6d. to 2s. per 1 on the latter. Western Canal flour has realised Sis, per bat Indian corn has been in good re- quest, and all qualities have readily brought the full rates’ of last Tuesday. The growing crop of beans bsing spoken of less favorably, this article has been held with more firmness, vance has been required.

The rates on London for bills by the steamer are 106% to 3g; those received by last arcival were rather widely stated at 1053 to 0X. ‘The improvement may be taken, therefore, as equal to more than 3 per cent, Commercial letters indicate the impression that the rates would rise somewhat bigher still. Any demand for specie for that qaarter would seem, tl erefore, to be out of the question, at least to any extent worth naming.

Livervoot Corton Manrxet—For the week end- ing July 9.—The past week has beon one of quictness although during the early part the sales were large; yet Itogether a general tone of dullness has prevailed, and we close the week with a decline of sd _per pound on all American descriptions. The cause of this decline is dif- ficult to account for; the weather has been fine and sea- sonable for the ap) ching harvest, on which much de- ends; and, therefore, we must suppose the trade, who ave for some weeks bought freely, have now sufficient stocks, and so can remain from our market. Cotton is flered, buyers having plenty of choice, , Brasil ‘gyptians have been much in demand, and !<d per pound advance has been obtained on these descriptions Surats remain without change. 7600 American, 2500 Surate, 370 Egyptian, and 90 Maranhains have been taken on speculation; ard 1780 American and 300 Surats for export.
