STARVATION AMONG THE MEXIUANS. The Extraordinary Military Enthusiasm of the American People. dic. dic. dice The steamer Telegraph arrived at New Or- leans on the 23th inst. from Point Isabel, and sings the following important intelligence. On the night of the nineteenth, an express ar- rived at Point Isabel from Gen. Taylor, stating | that he had crossed the Rio Grande, and taken the city of Mqtamoras without opposition, the Mexicans having fled the city. The Mexicans, from the last accounts, were de- serting their ranks in battasions. Two American i>giments, with the exception of about 350, having arched a few days pre- vious, were stationed at Braros Point awaiting the orders of Gen. Taylor, as it was thought they would leave on the 20th for Mata noras via the old Barita road. Others, who were woundea i in the action of the 8th and 9th, are at Point Isabel,ard were recover- ing. Captain Auld, of the Telegraph, who has had opportunities for obtaining correct informa- tion, has given us seme interesting particulars in relation to our army operations. The escape of Captain Thornton at the time his company was so badly cut up, is almost incredible. After carrying him safely over a high hedge en- closure into which he had been decoyed, his horse brought him over fences and deep ravines, swim- ming the Rio Grande above Matamoras.— Then, passing down below the town, on the opposite side, in attempting to leap a broad ditch, + he missed his footing, when horse and rider were both thrown by the fall. Capt. T. was so stunned that he was soon after taken up by the Mexicans, perfectly unconscious of what had happened. After the battle of the 9th, he was exchanged and restored to the army. Capt. Auld thinks the whole number of our kill- ed and wounded must amount to more than 300; besides the wounded taken to St. Josephs, there are now forty at Point Isabel, too badly wounded to be removed. All but three, it is thought, will recover. There are three Mexican prisoners having but one leg between them all. The condition of the brave and esteemed Capt. Pagé “is melancholy indeed. The whole of his lower jaw, with part of his tongue and palate, was shot away with a grape shot; he, however, survived, though entirely incapable of speech, only communicating his thoughts by writing on a slate, and receives the necessary nutriment for the support of life with much difficulty.— It is stated that he does not desire to live, but converses with cheerfulness and exultation upon the success of our army. All our accounts represent the Mexicans as hav- ing fought on the 8th and 9th with a courage and desperation which would have reflected credit upon the troops of any nation. They were nearly in a state of starvation, and had been promised the ample supplies of the Ameri- can camp, in case they would secure the victory They met the charge of our treops manfully, and stood the destructive fire that was pouring in upon them without giving way, until the works were encumbered with the dead and wounded.

O Picayune, May 28 . It was reported in the city yesterday that General Gaings had received an enclosure from the Secretary of War, covering without remark or comment, a copy of a letter from the department (9 Governor Owsley, of Ken- tucky, requesting that funetionary to pay po aviention to any ells or suggestions from General Gaines. If this report be trate, it is an act of oMcial discourtesy alioge- ther unpardouable, coming trom such a man as Marcy to a veteran defender of the country, and who was never accused, by his bitterest enemies, of anything. worse than too mu Jin the public service, If the com- mander of the western division has been guilty of act | deserving of this skulking kind of a reprimand, he is en- | titled to a general court-martial, and ought himself to | demand it, if the department refuse to bring his. conduct to that test ‘The Governor of this State, we learn, received yester- day a cominunication from the War Department, inform. ing him that two regiments of infantry (in addition, we euppoue to the four regiments wi.ich the Department was aware were already recruiting under the requisition of General Taylor.) would be required from Louisiana, and the Governor to ing in, This requisition has already been so far anticipated, that a fifth re, chan (that of Colonel Pe: ‘ee —and a better never put foot on a battle field,) has dispatched to the theatre of war, and .a sixthis so cae filled up that it can be easily completed, we suppose, at twenty-four hours’ notice.—New Orleans’ Bulletin, May jold them in readiness for ALABAMA. [From the Tuscaloosa Flag Extra of May 25.) It will be seen from the following letter of the Secre- tary of War to the Executive, that Alabumais called upon for ten companies of Infantry or Riflemen. to be organ- ized at the earliest practical period, and to proceed to Mobile, where they will ‘‘ be further organized into a re- giment.” As the full complement of men called for have already volunteered, thore will be but little delay in the transportation te the seat of war. The first ten companies have been called on by the Governor (see his circular letter) ‘to comply with the requisition immediatel: nd to proceed, when organ- ized” to the city of Mobile. The Greensboro Cavalry were the second company reported to the Governor, as ready for servic the war department has called for“ infantry or riflemen” only —this gallant troop, which is in a high state of disci- has been shut out from service.

TENNESSEE, In the absence of Major General Campbell, on Tues- day evening, Adjutant General i urner proceeded to as- certain, according to the law and the proclamation of Governor Brown, what companies were to have the houor of marching to the Rio Grande from the second division. As every body’ expected, it turned out that double as many companies were tendered as would make up the quota for this division, but upon examination it was found that there was the requisite number of existing infantry comp to whom the law gave the preference.

R. D. Allison. Statesville Cavalry—Capt. J. W. Marshall. Several other companies of cavalry were tendered, but pred were doomed to a sad disappointment in not having the’ privilege of marching, In the third division, Major ‘Gen. Bradley proceeded on Tuesday to designate the six infantry companies for the service. It was found that there were three ipnien having a preference under the law—they are the following: — Captain Whitfield’s—Hickman county. iptain Alexander’s—Lawrence county. ptain Malden’s—Marshall county. There were thirteen other companies tendered, from which three were to be chosen by ballot—the following are the fortunate companies:— Captain Childress’—Rutherford county. Captain Frierson’s—Bedford county. Captain Northcutt’s—Warren county. The three Cavalry companies were not designated on Tuesday, but were to be selected on yesterday. It is ex- pected that: the Infantry companies of the second and third ions will repair to Nashville by Monday next, when they will be formed into battalions and a regiment, elect their several officers, and sieves forthwith for the seat of war.—Nashville Bie May 28.

T. is a brother of Generel Taylor, and an officer of high reputation. Gen Wool, U.S. A., arrived at Buffalo on the 4d inst. We understand that he proceeds to Chicago. Naval Preparations.

Incidenta, &c., of the War, The New Orleans Jeffersonian of the 28th ult, says :-— You will no doubt recollect that Gen. Jackson, by will, bequeathed to the-man, who, in the war in which his country might be engaged, should distinguish himselt most by heroic be pac ¢ @word which he wore on the 8th January, 1815, the people of the United States to make the award. Now li the citizens of the United States are executors of tl at portion of the will, I suggest, through your valuable leapt that it be bestowed on Gen. Taylor, who has recent! 1d two of the most bril- liant victories on record, Y ada circumstances very simi- lar to those in which Jackson won his immortality. A gentleman attached to the Navy informs us that when travelling to Washington some time since, a com- pauy of the Flying Artillery were on board the cars,— cannon, horses and all. On arriving at the depot in Washington the corps immediately formed and started off atfull run. With astonishing sudden they halted, dismounted, separated their cannon from the carrit replaced them, mounted, and started offagain. The whole of these man@uvres only consuming nine minutes and a half. Their performaucosin an engagement are of tho most ingenious character. At.acertain signal, after fir- ing, they instantly drop; while the enemy, supposing them disabled, venture too near, and in an instant = completely surprised and are shot down before they can collect themselves. The arms made use of by this un- J corps are sword, pistol and cannon; of which they have proved themselves the most skillful masters.— Boston Traveller, Point Isaner, May 16.—I have been at this point for two days, and during that time have been trying to pick up information that would be of interest to you and your readers. I wrote you afew lines immediately after my arrival here, before I got ashore, which | find to be i many respects incorrect. I received the information 1 nent you from naval officers who boarded us immediately on our arrival off this point. | find the facts of the two battles fought with the Mexicans on the 8th and 9th inst., to have been more sanguine, and the loss on the part of the Americans to have been much greater than was first reported. and that of the Mexicans to have been some- thing less. The loss on the American side was 480 killed, wounded and prisoners, including 20 or 30 officers ; and on the Mexican side, from 1200 to 1600 killed, wounded and taken prisoners. The Mexicans have been much underrated by the American people. They stood their ground like mea—filling up the ranks as fast as they were mowed down by encaeriere: in whole platoons.— New Orleans Delta, Muy 28. We understand from a reliable source, that it is the in- tention of the Government to send a force to California Sufficient to take possession of that country, and to hold on to it. It is supposed that the mounted men from Ar- kansas, Missouri, and probably from Tennessee, will be directed to California. We sincerely Dobe, that this information may be true, and the source through which wo derive it satisfies ys that it isreliable, G regerd California now as ours, and with that result all will be satisled.— Nashville Union, May 28. As it seems to be the general opinion that a fight must be hed in some way, and as the United States will not accept our services, I propose that a regiment should be raised fo join the Mexicans—the sole motive fbeing te have a figh Jeune Guanpe pe St. Mant ooh HE RAMON, Lew SuOu TON. , New Brighton, havin one con- rable repairs and embellishmen: H ice the last sea- son, i now in amor tate than it has ever been since it was first opened. ything that eould tend to the com- and accommodation of parties who may konor it by mak) their summei acy has been added, and the pro- tor feels assured not im any way presume ¢ asserts that it is ts the Most elegant and complete sum- mer establishment on this continent. wtojpersons from. disten and fe , Nave never visited the Pevttoe itmay be necessary. 3 ton is situated on en Island, ata dive The Pavilion tampgenture bes jer tl et cellent steamboats antl Ni York and Stat Inland, te sverae tise cocatied In tan yo only twenty-five to — jutes ; 80 that rant tear ly thn rome the pipet ad: ++ Tupper part of Brosd- the dalightfal Gipe acrous the beptere kay Seek pgnt for the season on the lth inet, and happy to treat with parties who.may ents for the whole seasow, or for x i ane wel iw Please to address # uote to Mr. C.
