The army in Mexico has been augmen

The volunteers engaged in the war con
sist of twenty-seven regiments and tno
compatdes. of five regiments are cavalr, or
mounted men, and twenty-two infantry
except a part of one battalion, ot which
two -l the companies are field artillery.
On the 21s' of September. it appears
by the statement tien sutimitted to the Sec
retary of War,-that the volunteer force in
the field (12 months men) amounted to 23,.
161 officers and men, exclusive of the
general officers and staff provided for the
irregular troops. This firce, it is seet,
does not now exceed 16,500, it the data
upot'the strength of the army is based be
tolerably correct.

The dlestinationi of1 a parc of the troops
reported --en route hior Mexico" for the ar

sudde-uty changed; atd it is also probable
lhat detachmemcos have been drawn from
the lowver Grande fo Tamnpico. which re

Of the forces reported as uder the or

company of the third regiment of artillery
embarked. at Ne w York for Monterey,
California, July 14th, and~ the New York
regimnentof voluniteers fur the same desti
nation embarked 25th September. The
Brigadier reported. October 6th, that he
was en route for that contry trom Santa
Fe, with two companies oaf the first regi
ment of draaoons, deeming that fhrce (with
the several officers of the staff who accom
pany him) adequate for the service in
view.
Babe the Pirate.-abe, the pirate, has
been recently arrested in Liverpool for a
violent assault oil the niate of one of otur
packei sips. It seems lie wvent on board
and desiredl to ship. as a .hand, but the
mate recognizing him, refused to tako
himn, giving as hle reascun. Batbd's well
known character. Upon this Babe knocked
thie mate down. for'which he wvas arrested
arid confined in prison-N. Y. Courier.
Acciden~ on the R iL Road.-We learn'
that the fireman named Ashley met with
an accident on Sunday last which has
deprived himn of a leg. He was on the
engine, and'in lobking hack to see whether
the train was a'1 flowing tie lost his
balace, and the c:ars passed over one of
his legs shattering it dreadfully. H e was
earried to the hospital in Charlestn,
where Dr. Gedlitngs amputated the limb
above the knee.
We le.trn that the train that left Co
lumbia for Charleston yesterday ran off
the track abouit 10 miles below this place,
atnd was delayed till noon uefore they
could be got back. We suppose this acci
dent will account for thie lateness of the
mail leet avening.SutA C'Aron.
Nortt 'arolina.-The old North State
,is re'lionlitig hanlsomely to the late call
upon. her for troops. Companies are
now forming in-altnost every part of the
State, and it appears that more than the
requisite number will tender their services
Hert Legislature has also determinied t
employ a Superintendent of Common
Schools, and to have a geological survey
of the State. It would be fully to call
her any longer-by the sleepy name of Rip
Van Winkle. Our own State seems now
to be the drowsier of the two.-Char. Eve.
'The Van Ness Case.---In this case, it
which a Mrs. Conner of Washi1te:
claimed to have been pri-ately married tr
the late Gen. Van Ness, s'ud which has
engaged the attentionof the Circuit Cotrt
of Washington for bomte weeks past, ih

OBITUARCY.
Our friend and- neighbor JAMES S. Pori
Esq., is no more. He departed this life on the
2d instant. of Pneumonia, in the fnrty-sixtl
year of his age, in the full enjoyment of th
blessed hope of a glorious immtality beynun
the grave. Although he never made a publi
profession of his faith in'tIe blessed Savior
yet we have every reason to believe he wase
christian. His Bible was his constant cumpan
ion. In passing over the lidsof his Testament
which lay on his table, we were forcibly struel
with the many passages which bore the mark
of his own pencil, which was conclusive evi
dence that his thoughts were not altogether. o
this world.
As a husband and father he was kind ant
affectionate He was a trite and devoted friend
and one of the best of neighbors. As a maste
he was indulgent and meteiful. He has leI
an affecti..ntte wife and one child, and a laig
number of relatives and friends to mourn hi
loss; hnt we must the more willingly submit is
the will ofa kind Providence, when we recol
lect that our loss is his eternal gain.
MUr. Pope had enjoyod the confidence of hi
n:ttive Distort for many years. In .1844 ha
was honorably elected a member of the Legis
lature, and in 1846 he was returned his cone
stituents having full confidence in hiis honesty
and integrity. and the able and satisfactory
manner in which he discharged his duty as :
faithful Representative. He did not gain bi
electron "s the nannlr of some men," Ln
pursued that high minded, independent ant
honorable course. which was eharncteriatic n
the mant through life. His friends were ani
