The reports which have reached us by recent ar-riTala from Mexico, that Santa Anna is preparing to resist the iaarcli.of.tht American army upon the city ef Mexico, at the Ri Frio pass, -has naturally dratrn attention to that spot This pass ir'said to beinuch more formidable than that of Cerro Gordo, and Una described to the editor of the "NewOrw leans Bulletin7 by a'fmtletnan, who ia said to be familiar' with it: It goes through the mountain with a steep as-eent, and for nearly three miles, the road, with high and rugged sides, is only sufficient to admit the passage of a single wagon at a time. There is, we are informed, im possibility of turning it, and ho mode Of attack, except by a direct movement, through the pass.

If this really be so, we should think, that with ordinary science and courage, it could be readily defended, but we heard pretty much the same story ef Cerro Gordo; and we rather think, when the army comes to Rio Frio, some other plan of attack will be more practicable than by marching through a single narrow gorge of the mountain, for two or three miles, under the fire of an enemy ou the steep sides of the road. The pass is about thirty-six miles from the Capital, and Rio Frio (Cold River) supplies the city with water." 0y After Mr. Jacob Tnoxrsos, of censure notoriety, got home to Mississippi, the Democrats of Lowndes county in that State, adopted the following Resolution uIUsohed, That our Senators and Representatives in Congress have faithfully performed their duty, and we hereby tender them our cordial approbation and congratulation: Provided, that nothing herein contained vhall be construed as an approval of the course pursued by the Hon Jacob Thompson, on the resolution of thanks by Congress to Gen.

It has been in operation about twelve years, and has proved itself to. be good There being no other Tannery in some twelve miles, it is every way a'good aland for the business. The other Lot contains nine acres, end has upon it a comfortable Dwelling for a small family.

A por tion of this lot is in meadow, which yields annually more than Fifty Dollars worth of good Hay. The two Lou are adjoining, and form nearly a square ef thirteen acres, all of which is in good repair, and well situated. It is believed, that the land and improvements, without the Tan-yard, is worth the price asked for the entire premises.

him self admits, and then answer this question What great difference can there be, Twlxt TKeedle-dwm and Tweedle-dee In relation to the misrepresentation of his rote, (and we publish the whole of his letter necessary to his vindication,) Gen. Dank, states as follows: "I hare recently obtained the Journal of the House, which shows that no such proposition was submitted, as a distinct proposition, to the rote of the House. Mr. Aran, of Ohio, offered to add to the first of -Mr. Cocke Resolutions, these words: as it our army was, and still is, in a war commenced and forced upon us by Mexico, and continued by us, in defence of the honor, and in 'riodication of the just rights of the United States, assailed as both had been, by repeated and flagrant acta on' the part of Mexico, of insults, outrages, and finally of invasion of one of the States of this Union Upon this amendment, designed by Mr.

Faran to affirm the justice and propriety of the War, in which the victory for which the thanks were about to be voted, was achieved, he moved the previous qnestion. before it was seconded, Mr. Thompson asked Mr. Faran to withdraw the previous question, in order to allow him to offer his proviso as an amendment Mr. Faran then agreed to modify his own amendment, by adding to it Thompson's proviso; and Faraa'e amendment, thus modified, was the proposition submitted to the vote of the House; and not Thompson's proviso, as set forth in the publication, as a distant proposition.

Against the amendment, in the form in which it was submitted to the vote of the House, a man who believed what it affirmed in relation to the Mexican War, euuld not vote without putting himself in a wrong position on the record; nor could the proviso, in fairness, be regarded aa a censure upon General Taylor, intended to relate to the eight weeks' truce, contained in the capitulation, and which the President and his Cabinet were unwilling to sanction. "Such are the facts, and yet and all who voted for aran's amendment, are represented as having voted for Thompson's proviso, unconnected with any thing else. The publication omits to Btate, too, that I voted to suspend the rules to receive the Resolutions which evinces my willingness to concur in the vote 6f thanks offered by Mr. Cocke. We ought to add, perhaps, in justice to the Gen eral, that he has withdrawn his subscription from the RttGisTsa," which he has continued through a series of years.

We take this occasion to thank him for the patronage heretofore bestowed upon us. Edit. Reo. THE STEAMER CAMBRIA ARRIVED.

MELANCHOLY DISASTER. An Extra from the Office of the "Cleveland (Ohio) Herald," dated June 10, informs us that the Steamer Chesapeake, and Schooner, John Porter, came in collision about half-post 12 o'clock on Thursday morning, when some four or five miles off Conneaut, by which both vessels were so much injured that they sunk soon afterwards. There were between forty and fifty passengers on board the Chesapeake, eight of whom are known to be loet, and probably more. Their names are as follows Passengers George Van Doren, of Lower Sandusky, Ohio Mr. Hook, of Watertown, N.

E. Conn, of Bellville, Ohio; S. York, of Tiffin, Qhio. Grw R. Sutherland, 1st engineer O.

Wait, 2d porter R. McMann, deck hand. 07 The "Mobile Advertiser" is of opinion that the Whies will certainly elect three members of Congress in Alabama, at the approaching election and probably four. The election of Gov. Gatlk in the Mobile district, Mr.

HiuJAan in the Montgomery, and Mr. Mvarnr in the Tuscaloosa district, it claims as beyond all reasonable doubt while, if Mr. Cottbeu, the late member, should be run again by the Locofocos in the Wetumpka district, his vote of censure upon Gen. Taylor, will certainly defeat him. In the last Congress, Mr.

Hiixiaro was the only Whig member from Alabama. We hope these hopes may be realised. 07 Galvanised Iron, we notice, has of late been taken trs a substitute for tin, elate, tine, etc as a covering for roofs The wires of, the best 'telegraph lines have, a jbeeq. thus prepared, and we see it stated that the iron work of some of the Government teamen in France has been already galvanixecL There is cause for congratulation, therefore, to be found, in the-fact that star great mines jtt iron are likely to beeooM more Taluahle than erer.

Tht recent explosion of the steamboat Edna at Columbia, on the Ouachita river, on the 4th inst, whereby some twenty or twenty-five persons were killed and some six or eight badly wounded, presents another lamentable exhibition of that recklessness of conduct, which too frequently characterises those individuals having charge of the lives and property of the travelling community. This- boat was under the charge, as I understand, of the Clerk, Mr. ohnston, and the Chief Mate and the conduct of the crew, during her passage up and down-the river, was the subject of conversation by every one. They were evidently in a state of excitement, and were supposed to have been under the influence of ardent spirits.

When she arrived at Columbia many persons on shore remarked that she would certainly blow up. such was the peculiar whizzing sound escaping from her, and which was heard before she made the landing. Here we laid about three quarters of on hour, during which time not a particle of water had been thrown into the boilers and when she rounded off the explosion took place, shivering the boat Into countless fragments, tearing the boilers into numerous pieces and throwing them from one to four hundred yards. The groans of the wounded, the shrieks of the drowning and the consternation depicted upon the countenances of the survivors, exceed description. Many lives were saved by the prompt and efficient aid of the kind citizens of Columbia Below you have a list of the Passengers saved as well as those who were unfortunately lost.

It is imperfect, as most of the books were lost. There were, doubtless, others of whom I could learn nothing seventeen bodies had been recovered. I cannot close rhivpainful recital without returning my grateful thanks to the ladies and gentlemen of Columbia for their kindness and attention. JOHN B. LEWIS, of S.

A writer ia the Lincolnton who pro fesses tcgWe a faithful account of the incident attending the downward march of the soldiers from that section of the indulges ia the following remark: "Durin their Ut in Raleigh, avy paraded by the mansion of Governor Graham, whose remarks were so affecting, when he addressed the Buncombe Volunteers, bis. feltow-eitixeus of Wester North Carolina: but whose doors and windows were closed to the ftUssss ef his youth, and the children of them who bate only agreed to-owagree wua nun in principle1 Now.

this writer either knew, that Got. Graham was absent from the City, (as we affirm he was, on a Visit to the Swamp Lands.) and thus deliberately slandered him; or, he did not care to enquire, (just as bad, we think,) lest he should hare to forego the pleasure of giving a stab, conceived in his heart long before he reached Raleigh.

It circulates as it always has, and always will, among the foyers and sellers, and among those who spend less than they earn. It is idle, then, to talk about the scarcity of money. It is always in the market, and always to, be bought with industry and, prudence. But some good souls imagine, that something has happened to money, which suspends its tendency to circulate that the Banks, somehow or other, hare a control over it, "which produces this effect The Banks!

THE WAR ON GEN. TAYLOR. We have a foretaste of what may be expected in the next Presidential campaign, from the following specimen of defamation in Chapman's Indianapolis Sentinel, the organ of Polkiam in Indiana: We will say, and in good time will produce the proof, which may be partly found in Gen. Taylor's own official despatches, that he had very little to do in ngnting the battle, of uuena Vista. Indeed, he was absent from the field, at SalUllo, a (rood part of the time, with 400 men.

This is the truth, and we are not afraid to say it, notwithstanding the present general disposition to give Gen. Taylor the entire credit of that terrible battle." SHIP FEVER ITS CONTAGIOUSNESS. At the annual meeting of the Medical and hi re rgieal Faculty of Maryland, held last week, a Committee, consisting of Drs. Chew, Power and Robinson, was appointed on the subject of the Ship Fever introduced by emigrants. This Committee made an interesting report, addressed to the Mayor of the City of Baltimore, in which they state that it is evidently the malady described by British medical writers as typJiusfeter and that in its symptoms, the therapeutic treatment which it requires, it differs in a marked degree from what is known among us aa typhus fever.

Of the contagiousness of typhus or ship feTer, the Committee srj-r- There is no ground, as we ore constrained to be lieve, for any reasonable doubt that the fever is ca pable of being, under certain circumstances, communicated from the sick to the healthy. Striking and unquestionable evidence of this truth, has been painfully forced upon our notice during the short period that the disease has existed in our City. Persons who, in the performance of duty, or actuated by benevolent feelings, have been brought into intimate and continued intercourse with patients laboring under typhus fever, have in frequent instances been affected by a malady precisely similar to the one with which they have been in contact Of the numerous coses of typhus which have lately occurred among our citizens, we have heard of none that could not readily be traced to communication with diseased emigrants from Europe. These who have been attacked by the disease, have in every instance, without any exception, been long and frequently exposed to the noxious, influence of this communication. Of the great numbers, on the other hand, who have lived apart from such communication, but in other respects have been situated in the same manner.as those who have been not one has been the subject of typhus fever, or has experienced any malady that could be mistaken for that fever.

We consider it then, abundantly certain as certain as any fact in science that this disease is communicable by transmission from one person to another. FOR TUE REGISTER. TWO CASES CONTRASTED. We knew in early life, two class-mates, fellows, friends, who, though fond of each other, were as different in feeling and character as the antipodes. We well remember when they embarked on the "sea of life," and each jtook for himself a "partner," to share in its joys and.

woes. The one was of an even temperament, industrious, frugal, joyous and contented. He had chosen for his com pa ion, one who shared with him iu all those redeeming qualities, and who was not only pleased in bein happy, but delighted in seemir others so. 1 he ultimatum of her enjoyment was to please her "lord," and to solace the unhappy whilst it was his, to bask in her smiles and relieve the distresses of his neighbors. In a word, to be comtentbd7 he had adopted as his motto through life.

And when at even-tide they would join in sweet converse on the incidents of the day past, they raised a grateful heart to Heaven for the manifestations of his kindness and goodness to ward them. And when they retired, it was at peace with all the world, and light-hearted snd contented. 1 be other, was a young man equally frugal and industrious, but who could not witness his neighbor's prosperity, without feeling a sort of jealous, envious animosity rankle in his bosom. And she whom he had selected as his better-half," seemed to have been chosen for her qualifications of disparaging the merits of those with whom she was associated. It seemed to be the delight of both, at Jhe close of the day, to sit down, and wonder how it was, that Mr.

or Mrs. could dash about in their carriages, rustle in their silks and dress their children so fine, when tftey, who were equally or more attentive to business, could only afford one decent suit, and to dress their' children in the cheapest calico. And thus they would pass hour after hour in repimngs, which would end in the significant shake of the head, and the expression Well 1 don't know bow it is I can't see into it" and they retire to rest, dis satisfied and unhappy. ears nave passed by, and we look in upon these two ramuies, and what a contrast see tne lor mer, both with the same cheerful, delighted counte nances happy in the sun-light of each others com pany and in the society of their little prattlers, as they teach them some moral lesson, or unfold to their young understandings the true secret of being rri m. 1 nappy, a ne piougu-enare oi a ime nas scarcely made a furrow on their cheeks they started out in life determined to be narrT and contested and thejf are so!
