Jesse Speight, late U. S. Senatoi from Mississippi, died at his residence in Lowndes county, in that State, on the 1st inst., aged about fifty years. Extract from a letter received by a gentleman of this village, from his son, a member of the "96 Boys," dated JALi'AA, April 25th, 1847. *" We arrived at this place on the 23d, and passine throigh the city, we encamped iu a beautif ul pasture, belonging to the God Father of Santa Anna. Our water is most excellent, which we obtain froti a sniall canal. on which is a very large factory. We left Vera Cruz oil the 18th, and after hard marches of 15 to 18 miles, arrived safely at this place. After trudging through sand,ankie deep, for the first 9 miles, we struck the Macadamized road, and this is one of the most costly and best roads I ever met with, the whole way, to this place, hd as well paved as any street in Charleston. The bridges are really magnificent, the strong est, and withal the neatest imaginable. On the second day, we encamped on a large creek, and about one mile from the camp was Santa Anna's hacienda; I was unable to go to it. the men obtained a great many cocoa-nuts. A beef party, was here shot at by rancheros, I nan killed and 2 or 3 wounded, 2 of the Penn ylvanians, who left the camp, were fonund with their throats cut. We met with nothing f interest, until we' arrived at-the Nationaf Bridge, which ii a most stupendous work, it is a so id rock., with four beautiful arches, about 100 yards long, over a large swift stream, the banks are very steep, and below the bridge it resembles Tallulah falls. It was here that San ta Anna intended.to make his defence, and had be succeeded. Scott would have been non-plus ad. On the 21st we came to Cerro Gordo the seat of the battle, where we halted 15 minutes, to enable us to see ;he place; the ground was covered with broken guns and ammunition of every kind; on the hill where the battle raged thickest, at least 100 Mexicans were lying un buried, some of them having str.ngs around their legs, by which they were dragged out of the way ; along the road, in the nidrle, and in the ditches were horses by the dozens, inter spersed occasionally with a Mexican. The stench was awful. every ranch on the road was filled with wounded,ansd as this was the first bat Ic field, I had seen, my leclirgs were indiscriba le. You could see men, who were fighting on ly the day before, lying side by side, some- with their arms shot off. legs, fingers, and toes, shat tered. This was one of the hardest fought hat ties our army ever had, and the victory deci live-for three hours menr never fought more bravely than the Mexicans. I am extremely glad that Gen. Twiggy fought so well. He and Col. Harney distinguished themselves. Santa Anna fled, as soon as he saw the day was against him, leaving his carriage, leg, and all his camp furniture. The cav.lry pursued him within four nmlles of this place. 'This is a. beautiful city, twice as large as Vera Cruz, with every thing ettable in abun biande, every 'kiid of -fruit, sav melons; the :limate isdelightftl, except at r ight, when 'it is uoonifotaly' cold;.

Di'ek Watmsoin, with five other men; who were blowu off~ from Vera Cruiz, in a inie, ind' who has never beenbheard of, is supposed to he at Perote. Gen. Worth wrote to Corl. Butler, that he found six of tais men there prisoners." xtract frofn a letter received by a gentlenian of this village, from a memb'er of the "96 Boys," dated JAL~APA, 26th April, 1847, " Havinag recovered from the latigr'es of the march to tis plte, I now fulfil n-y promnise rf writinrg to you. Our life has bee'a hard in deed, and to console us, the prospect is still ore gloomry. While stationed at Vera Crurz, wvithout tents to protect us from the scorchinig suns, constanit irorthers, and miserable wvat. I thought that ourr life was severe indeed, (1 do noi mention the delicious pickled pork, which rn epicure would have been charmed with, anrd ihe s,,it palateable crackers,)-bit, now that the rainy season has commenced, added to the cold iights, our situation is wretched indeed. We are only :dlowved three tents to a company, one for the officers, and thre o'her two are crowded with-sick. Last night the men were exposed to a hard rain all night, and it is now raimrn, 4 'elock, P. M. Our mress sleep with the officers while the captain is in the city. He lias been quite ill, but haAe now nearly recovered his for. mrer health; Our march to thi- prlace was by no means assdere as we aiuticipated. Aller the frst dray 's march, we-strucek the Mcadamiz ed road, whrich isethe 10th wonder of the world. It is from thirty tto sixty feet wide, with-inmm merale bridges of solid rock, crossing creeks and ravines. The National Bridge is a most stuendo.:s work. crorssing a large swift-mnn tam stream, with four beautiful darchus of solid masonry, the balustrades five feet in height of tre same material. Below the bridge theastream thnders through -a dreadful chyasm, many' hin dred feet deep. Scores of buzzards were foost ing ii thiereces~tes, and as we filed'across the bridge, three milk-white pigeons were' perched on the summit. Following the stream fur a mile, over a rock-y path, you come to a cave overshadowed with banana, orange and other trophicat trees, with breantiful green' vines creeping from bongh to bonighmnakig sodeiis a shade, that thre rays of the suin can never pierce ihronagh. Going~ into the cave a few seps; it becomres so cold, that you can remoaim wii.n it only a lfew moments. In consequence of te excessive cold and darkness, we coutld riot ascertain its length. At its entrrrnce is a beattiful chrystal spring, as cold as ice. It is sine of the most rotnantisc spots the eye-ofmani ever rested upon. Cerro Gordo was'-the next place worhhy of' mention, that we enco~untered, seven miles before we caime to it. We passed a siall ranch, where bet ween 50 and 100 of our wounided were. You cannot' conceive what a dreadf'ul'nsight they presented. som'e .of them with- the-rr w ounds not dressed, some with their arnms blown of', some with shattered lee, some shot through the face, and tithers ii other p arts of the body, but all of them in flne spirits. While there, one who hiad hriS'arm broken, cal led another to go-after water, the poor fellow ,aid hold on awhile, the doctor has just com rced to cut my arm oft, which was the case. This is one of the best naturally fortified placea on tie whole road, and for. three hours, thre battle weas one of the most stoaitly contested on recod. The Giottad was coverrd with broken guns, and ammunition of every kind. Odl die main summit, o hitbatiacall d.the a gat l4 hilpathl'astI00 Mexican bodies, vere dying unburied.

Every ranch xvas crowdedwith wounded, our men and Mexicans lying aide by side. Atone of ihese,-before the door,I saw-an arm of the former, and a leg of the latteri'ji st amputated.. -a The day before w.arrived at ihis. plgoa,; we encamped near a hacienda of Santa Antna, it is a beautiful place, and the iuuse mbstihasiid somely furnistred, with sofas, mahogany ehtairs, centre tables with marble tops; rocking chairs, and very large mirrors, and the walls decarated with the most exquisite paintings I ever saw. His pastures were enclosed for miles, with solid rock ;walls, and were filled with catte:a nd sheep,which we made free user ofinotwithstand ing Scott's orders to the contrary.

'We lsie just heard from the Congress in Mexico. it breathes nothing but war, to the knife. - We expect to march next Sunday, and as the volun; teers are to lead, I hope yet to follow our flag through deadly strife, to glorious victory. Should the opportunity occur, the Old 96 Boys will prove themselves wotthy their name." TothePudic.-The readers of The South Carolinian will learn with pleasure, that Col. A. G.
