June from Monterey. i . _ but the news is of no great importance, r Nothing has qecurired to change the dispo- t sitioniof Gen. Taylor's forces in any ma- i = terial poi'nt,,and there is no hope of an ad vance upon San Lp2is. Captain Bankhead, commanding a com- i panjii the Viiginia regiment, arrived at t Monterey on the 14th ult. from China. He reported that after the departure of the I main body of the battalion for Monterey he despatched a Mexican fur Camargo with a communication for Colonel Relk nap. A few days after he learned that the messenger had been captured by a body of armed Mexicans, near passo Zacata and sentenced to he shot. News had reached Munetrey from China, - of the death of Lieut. Malian, who was I shot in the recent duel with Lieut. Mum ford-both of the Viiginia regiment. Tiree companies of Texas Rangers had recently came in to Monterey after having .been out scouring the roads in the direction of Camargo. They failed to fall in with Ur'rea or any of his men, although-rumor frequently bad him in the neighborhood in I Force Our correspondent thinks he is still the othet side of the mountains. - ;-The rangers captured one or two "rob _fs," and it is said, shot one of them. Upon their return they were at once order ed up to Saltillo. The Mexicans are said to be organizing small guerilla parties, and the roads are somewhat beset with robbers, but we do not learn of any harm done by them. A train from belaw arrived at Monterey on the 15th, escorted by several companies of the North-Carolina regiment. % The health of the troops at Monterey was improving, and only one man had recently died. He was attached to the Virginia regiment. The Mexicans are beginning to return to their residences in Monterey in con siderable numbers. A mhan named James Masy, a Virginian by birth, but a long resident of Texas, was shot recently by the guard, while attemp ting to escape from the guard house. A Texin Ranger bad also been shpt on the plaza byn fellow soldier, and died. Not withstaniing these untoward events. Mon idrey is now much more quiet than it had .eet;.

This speaks tell, na' crelitably for the Heroes of 'our sister State. ailroads-their Influence.-Neo York Boston-Charleston. The manner in which Railroads are nfluencing the altsirs of life and the des inies and fortunes of cities and countries, s a subject of the greatest moment. Their ower has not yet been fully developed, r every day exhibits some new operation >n tl:e industry of the farmer, of manufac ures, or the course of trade, which had tot been foreseen or expected.' It is won lerful bow they change the course of tature. They penetrate deep and far into laces apparently closed up against con nerce, and opening their way- far into the meari of rich lands, bring from them the ibundant productions of agricultural-skill ir the fabrics -of manufacturi.tg industry, md lay them down on the ocean's shore, vhere the ships of the merchant can bear hem across the seas to the foreign con iter; these send in return their fabries mud productions, which are by the same neans conveyed into the innermost re :esses of valleys amd mountains, where, intil this age-and its improvements opened he\vay, the-race of man enjoyed but few it the comforts and advantages of civilli :ation. All places and all men are about icing brought into the currents of life, and ithin the influences and imorovements if all its activity and advancement. It was for some time considered that iailroads were to be great conveniences or travelling,-'but were not of power nough teregulate trade; then it was found hat light articles could be carried to ad vantage; and more recently, heavy freights lave been triumphantly established. It s curious to note these progressive steps; :o see how rapidly one imprisonment has rodden on the heels of another, and one nvention sprung out of and destroyed mother, realizing mt moments, rather than :enturies, the fable of the Phonix. These mprovements in the Locomotive have een such, that where, for instance, five years ago you could not find-on out Rail -oad one that was able to carry more than 100 bales of Cotton in a train, nearly all employed now can take 1000, and one very lately added can easily carry 1500. Ihe consequence iF, that the Roads have heir capacities vastly increased, and can ake freights at such low rates, and so ex peditiously and safely from point to point, hat Railroads are rapidly revolutionizing rade and changing the destinies of cities. It will be seen, that the daily travel has icreased from seventy-three passengers o one hundred and seventy-six, and even to two hundred and seventy-one, for 1847 he daily receipts of passage; money, from 216 58 to $642 42; that the largest number of passengers and the highest profits have been when the charge for passengers has been lowest. And that, while from 1834.to 1843 the amount re :eived for passage money and for freights were nearly equal each year, since then he freights have increased to more than Jouble the passage money. The reason )f this is that the rate of freights has been educed, the new improved locomotives mabling the Coinpany to convey vastly nore freight, and of course to give to their usir.ess greater expedition, cer'."inty, and If sich ard the results'iow, ~i at may de not expect when the Roads reachm into T'ennessee, and the Greenville and the Charlotte Railroads are completed] I If Charleston, like Boston will help or uild the feeders which she catn encourage and bring into existence, she, like Boston, ill become a great city.-Charleston e rcury.'
