The Mxcilla valley is Mid to be the only very lu ol New Mexico ad.p^^o' he cul lion of the grape. The S.oi.Fe WeekyG. zette declares that up to the time of fixmg the Initial point by the Boundary Comm.sa.on. this valley was a part of New Mexico; an that as soon upon, it was taken possession of by the Mexi cans, who drove out the Americans without compensating them for the improvements they bud made. This is considered an important declaration, if it be true.

New Mexicas have heretofore announced the arrival of Senor Almonte, the new WO is well known in this country, from his previous residence here, sod is universally respected for diplomatic talent, frankness and straightforwardness. The fact that Santa Anna has accredited him to this country may be looked upon as good evidence of his peaceable intentions. Mexico has, for a few years past, sent us Ministers whose conduct has been marked by duplicity, overweening pride and ignorance. This circumstance has, perhaps, created greater obstacles to a fair understanding and adjustment of our relations with Mexico, than all other causes combined. A Commok Error.

see in many of our of them of the first class the phrase "Commercial Emporium." Now tbis expression is not English, as we understand the matter. Two words are used to express an idea better expressed by one. The word Emporium," in and of itself, means a place of commerce, a great mart, to which people resort for the purpose of trade. The Greek word from which it is derived has no other meaning, and no standard lexicographer has ever given it any other definition, in the single ease of its use as a term in surge ry, where it signifies "the common sensory in the brain." "Literary Emporium" is almost as bad as "Commercial," unless used to signify a place where books and other literary pro ductions are bought and sold in large quanti ties, as at Leipsic.dca. But to say 'Commer cial Emporium" is like saying black blacking, or green greenness.

Rather Brownlow, of the Knoxville, Whig, has been lately sick and in view of his probable recovery, thus Certainly, we are at a loss to know what the Parson's views may be as to the relative greatness of Dr. Bakerand his Maker. Our readers may judge: "Through the mercy of the Good Be ing, and the attention of Dr. Baker, we shall come out of the 'contest' 'right side and when we get able to endure the fatigues of travel, we must make our way to the Montville Springs." Dr. Baker is certainly placed in the highest rank of being, indeed, so high that a casual reader can scarcely suppose him to be a man of mortal mould.

Be this as it may, however, we are heartily glad that the Parson is getting well. It will also always delight us to hear that he is, as he phases it, right side Any other position would, for a Parson especially, be very indecorous. tW A writer in the Journal of Commerce Bays the word be written "Aylantus," or "Alantus." He says that the bluader has been committed by scholars who associate the word with the Greek, Anthos, (a flower,) with which it has no affinity; and say ing, helianthus, polyanthus, and others, they say, too, naturally, Alenthus. It is an The word is all and has no more to do with the Greek, than a Turk or a Jew with tbe Saviour of tbe Christian. Now.Jwe don't ke the Ailanthus at all, but would like to know the true origin of the word.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. The Timet of yesterday remarks that I tie Not folk Argus ia the enly Democratic paper in the South thnt baa defended the appointment of Win. J.

Brown of Indiana, (charged to have intrigued with the abolitioniata for election to the Speakership of the House of Rep resentatives some years aa general mail agent for several of the Northweatern States. It saya that the Argus defends thia appointment of the President on the ground that the standard of public and private virtue is lower in New England, where Gen. Pierce was raised, than it ia in the South, and therefore, he entertains different notiona from us in regard lo the proprie'y of Brown's conduct. The Whig states that while Southern Democratic journals are making every effort to defend the abolition appointments of President Pierce, the tone of the Northern Conservative Democratic press is Btrongly condemnatory ol those appointments, and is in stronger contrast with the tone of their Southern cotemporariea. The Mail refers to the independence, sovereignty and State pride so cherished by every Virginia heart, and points out some of the means of giving substantial existence to what is now little better than a theory.

The surest guarantee, it says, for the South against any infringement of State rights and all foreign dangers, is to develop their own elements ol power, and out of those materials construct a real independence and sovereignty. It ear neatly deprecates the purchase of articles of Northern manufacture, and patronage of Northern colleges and institutions of learning by Southern men, when we are abundantly capa ble of producing those articles of merchandise ourselves, andihave every facility here for instruction in all the branches of The free States, to ensure their predominance, have only to continue their exertions to ac quire wealth and greatness, while we, still apathetic and idle, mast decline into mere tributaries to their superior energy and enter prise. The Mail closes its article by appealing to Virginians to awake to their duty, to develop their resources and dam up the currant of emigration which will otherwise reduce the State to a bare and deserted channel, showing only that a mighty river once flowed where no drop remains to moisten the barren sands. The Enquirer appropriately remarks that the Tragical History and Lamentable End of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, wherein is accurately reported the effect produced by a great book ef lies, the circulation of an infamous slander, the notorious progress of the author thereof, and of her conjugal appendage, through Scotland and England, the grand festival at Stafford House, and the gathering of the toa dies, the sudden extinction of hypocrisy and imposture, and the instantaneous disappearance of the charlatan in the geodly city of now be that the prohibition of Uncle Tom's Cabin by the the refusal of Queen Victoria to receive Mrs.

A go Babxsdalb's Mills Tbe brands of floor manufactured la Richmond bars long been celebrated in oar domestic Hid foreign wheat markets for their purity and superiority They are but liule affected by chsoges of climate and raa diijr nommsod the highest market prioes. One of these termed tbe Qallego, ia manufictured by Messrs Warwick k.

Barkadale, in their immense mil'a, fronting the lower aide of tbe baain. We are indebted to the poiiteneaa of" Mr Joseph UI, superiotendsnt of the machinery of the mill, nut tbe directing and supei vising millers cf the establishment, Messrs 8 Jenner and II Berry, for tbe chief itema of the following sketch of tbe operations of theae milla. Tbe present main wheat mill waa erected in 1817, immediately sfter the burning of the former mill, aad ia 164 feet long by 94 feet deep. Height from tbe basement, facing the canal 90, and from tbe lower pavement 118 feet. It contains aeven distinct stories.

To the left of tbe aaill ia a large storehouse, and to the right, atill conneeted with it, ia the corn mill. Thia main mill containa 20 pair of burr mill stones for grinding, and 4 pair for cleaning and smutting wheat. They are turned by a volume of water from tbe basin, equal to horse, power. From 11 to liiOO barrels of flour can be terned out in 24 hours; and, through tbe medium of some improvements now being made in tba mill during the present slack time, it is expected that when work commences again upon the new crop, say in a couple of weeks, that a still larger quantiy of fijur will be ground out and barreled During tbe year, ending tbe Ist of July, 1853, between 7 and 800,000 bushels of wheat were ground, making about 140,000 barrela of No 1 quality of Gallego flour. Estimating the value of tbe flour at the average market prices, 86, $6 50 and 97, tbe total value of thefloar woMd amount to nearly a million of dollars.

Nearly one hundred mea, ineluding draymen, Bre employed during the business season about the mill. Last season Messrs W. purchased a building located about a mile and a half up the canal and set to work seven pair of burr grinders, upon wheat, turning out about 250 barrels on a good working day. Some 20,100 barrels was the result of the labor at this mill up to the lit of July. Mew improvements are also being made to this mill for future use.

This would augment the amount of the finest quality of flour milled last year to 160,000 barrels. As we have already stated, to the right of the main mill on the basin is the corn mill, a smaller but more substantial building. This is under the charge of superintendent Robert Redford. This mill has four pair af burr-grinders, two cf which were employed last year In the manufacture of cross-middlings, an Inferior quality ot flour, worth from S3 50 to 50 per barrel, and one in grinding corn. One ptir was not run regularly.

It Is capable of turning out from one to two hundred bushels of corn asu 75 barrels cross middlings per day. Up to the Ist of luly, 1853,23,657 bushels of corn weregruund at the mill, giving nearly 5,000 barrels, and barrels ot the inferior quality of flour prepared. Ten men were employed at thia miil. Making a rough estimate, ihe value of the flour and corn mEaiufactured in th 3 several mills of Messrs W. li.

during the year, must have amounted to same This will give one a slight idea of the interest which Richmond has in one single flcur; and her name is famous throughout thewoild for its unrivalled quality. The name of the brand of this mill, Gallego, is that of the first proprietor of the mill, who subsequently sold cut to Chevallie, who again vested the right of ownership in Messrs Warwick Barksdale for a suitable pecuniary through all thuae changes the name and character of the brand has remained unchanged. Battle with tuk Gas During the fire at Burr Eoinger's manufactory, Sunday morning, a rumor that the gas was about to take fire and the city be blown up fled in all directions with the rapidity cf the winds, and occasioned no little alarm among the people. A German woman, whose alarm was very great, proved herself to be endowed with both resolution and strength under emergency. Regarding the danger of herself and family imminent, ui too was in her house, she concluded that the risk would be greatly diminished if she were to ejact the pipes which conveyed the dreaded fluid into her rooms So she attacked them with an earnest and vigorous effort that promiitd entire cats She smashed the metre into smithereens and knocked the pipes to pieces, and wn rapidly ridding the premises of all the dreaded apparatus whea she was prevailed upon to however, without considerable effort on the part of those who endeavored to explain the matter to her She played upon the pipes in rare style, and undid in a second what had employed hours.

It is quite supposable that he discovered that the geese were going a little too far North, especially as there was a decided change in the temperature Monday night, and feeling, may be, some rheumatic symptoms in his slender legs, he bade his brother voyageurs good by. The untimely shot from Mr. Exall's gun, however, cut short his career, and deprived hu Southern family of an ac count of his excursion.
