The English mail has arrived from Vera Cruz, bringing intelligence from the city of Mexico, October 30th. Manuel M Seamaconi, special com missioner from Mexico, is en route to Washington. It is expected that he will remain there as minister. Foster gave an informal dinner to Seamaconi and. Selazco, at which Senor Vallarta, Secretary of Foreign Anairs, and the ministers of Germany and bpam were present. Another regiment of infantry march ed for the Rio Grande on the 30th ulti mo. Much excitement prevails at numer ous reports of fights on the Rio Grande between the Mexicans and Americans. It is rumored that a body of Mexicans crossed to Eagle Pass, pulled down the American flag and ran up the Mexi can banner, and that Matamoras has pronounced against Diaz. The excite ment increased upon the intelligence that Mexicans have been assas sinated in Texas. None of these ru mors have been confirmed. Gen Trevino pledges the State of Nueva Leon to sustain Diaz's policy of extradition and the repression of raids. The Mexican officials on the Rio Grande claim that they give up crimi nals in all cases required by the treaty, and where the honor and peace of the country demand, but they reserve the right to refuse to deliver their own citizens on the demand of a foreign power, as the treaty does not require it. The commerce and industries of the country are not affected by the excite ment. Coneress is cutting down the tariffs of the Mexico and Vera Cruz Railroad. The treasury receipts are increasing and expenditures are being diminished. Rings of speculators and brokers about the palace have been abolished. The Missouri Farmers on the Finances. St Louis.

The deten-. tion of rails for railways as contraband of war has been removed. Advices from? Constantinople indi-. cate a change of ministry in the inter ests of peace. The Russians were repulsed in the assault upon Plevna from the east The loss is considerable, but the supposed attack was a demonstration to mask the Russian movement to establish themselves on the Sofia road. - There is much discontent in Ron mania concerning the war. There is hardly a family in Moldovia which has not lost a relative. The full strength of the Roumanian army was sent into the field at the beginning of the war. Some companies now have only one officer, and as there are no reserve officers to replace those who have been killed, the army is disorganized. After the engagement of the 19uh, the Roumanians threatened to mutiny if any further attempts were made to lead them to certain death. A large body of Russian troops is massed at Tirnova, and reinforcements are pushing forward with the supposed design of crossing the Balkans this winter. A dispatch to the Times from St. Petersburg says : "The idea is rapidly gaining ground here that perhaps the war may be finished this year. Cer tainly a great effort will be made. It is generally believed in the event of success, Russia will demand a free pas sage of the straits and the autonomy of northern Bulgaria under some Ger man Prince, with a guarantee of the great powers " A special dispatch from Constanti nople to the Standard says : "It is re ported from Orchanie on the authority of Russian prisoners that General Gourko was wounded during the re cent fighting and has since died. Note. This is improbable. A special dispatch from Vienna to the Times says : "The recent Russian successes have causeed war agita tion in Belgrade but so indifferent to Servia's attitude are the Russians now, that the report is current that Prince Karagorgevitch, the Servian pretender bas been invited to visit tbe Russian headquarters and was well received there. Whether this is true or not it is certain that Servia's trimming has spoiled her position with liussia, lur key and the great powers alike, and she is likely to commithers"elf to some desperate measure in the effort to re trieve herself. Russian official bulletins report continned progress on the Plevna and Orchanie and Lovatz and Orchanie roads. Televen and Turkiisver are oc cupied by infantry and cavalry, and a cavalry detachment has penetrated Yoblanitza pass in pursuit of retreating Turks.

A decree, dated November 3rd, has been issued, de claring that all estates ruined during the war and in a way of reconstruction, shall be free from contributions for five years from the date of the decree. Every new estate and all new property acauired in cities or villages of the central and oriental departments, will have the same privilege. All indus tries and commerce in said depart ments, newly established, will be empt for three years from contribu tions.

FRANCE The Departmental Elections- Defeat of the Due de Broglie. London, Nov 5. A Paris dispatch to the Times says the returns of the de partmental elections, as far as known, show that 28 Republicans and 9 Con servatives were elected to the Council General, and the Republicans have 8 new members. The Due de Broglie's defeat by tbe Bonapartists will, doubt less, create a great sensation, and have considerable influence on the decisions of the eovernment.

To the sallow, tettered, red, or pimply complexion, it renders a delicacy and charm the very counterpart of nature, and unlike other preparations, conveys no suggestion of arti ficial appliance. It has been subjected to a rigid official analysis and bas been pro nounced entirely innocuous even to the most deilcate skin. Specially warranted to contain no Lead, Zinc, bismuth, or chalk, its use is to be deprecated even less than the universal rice or starch powders, tending to clog the pores to a greater degree than this delicate and attenuated preparation of which it may invariably be said, that to use is to recom mend. Its long possession of public favor bas led to the introduction of many worthless imi tations against which the public are warned. so preparation is genuine save tbat entitled ' Olympian Cream," and bearing upon a blue label the device of a lion rampant, with battle axe, which is the trade mark of the sole proprietor.
