NEW _YORK HERALD New Yorn, Wednesday, October 14, 1846, — ——=—= —— = THE OFFICIAL DESPATCHES FROM THE ARMY. MOVEMENTS OF THE ADMINISTRATION We give on the outside of this day’s Herald, the official despatches, so far as published in the Union, from General Taylor ; also under the post script head, four or five important letters from our special correspondents in Washington, detailing the movements and intentions of the adminis” tration relative to Mexico. These despatches will be read with the greatest interest by the public. ‘What has become of the Steamer 7? We egret to say that we have no tidings of the steam ship Great Britain. She is overdue, whether she left Liverpool on the 22d or the 26th ult. The Caledonia, with advices from England to the 4th inst., will be due in Boston on Saturday or Sunday next. ‘The Storming of Monterey and the Capitu- lation—Old Rough and Ready, and the Iron Duke. The brilliant achievements of the American army under the command of Gen. Taylor, at Mon- terey, have been hailed with pleasure and delight wherever the accounts have reached; but we are sorry to see in some quarters a disposition to cen- sure General Taylor, for making the terms of the capitulation so lenient and favorable tothe Mex- scans, We are extremely sorry to see this procedure on the part ofa portion of our citizens, and feel con- vinced that a little reflection would bring about a different opinion to the one we have mentioned. Our citizens must recollect that General Taylor enjoys the confidence of his government and the army, and that he has everything to contend agaist, in his present position. He is in an ene- my’s country, surrounded with danger; he has | the weight of a campaign resting on his mind; he has to make arrangements for the subsistence and disciplining of an army of many thousand men; he has likewise to vindicate the honor of his country by defeating the enemy; and if he make but one false movement, or if a single or- der that he issues, be disobeyed, or tardily attend- ed to, his own prospects for life are blasted, and the American arms would be covered with dis- gtace. Under these circumstances, and without knowing any particulars but those that have al- ready reached us, imperfect as they must be, and | no doubt are, it is ungenerous and unjust to form | an Srigion that “‘Old Rough and Ready” is censu- rable for adopting the course he did. Time and further accounts, we are satisfied, will prove that | the terms of capitulation that he agreed to were dictated by sober judgment and sound rea- son, aud were the best for the interest of the United States that could be adopted. | Let us look a little into his situation. The dspot of provisions was at Seralvo, some | seventy miles from Monterey. The accounts that have reached us inform us that the army left the encampment within three miles of Mon- terry, with but two days provisions and no tents, and fought for forty-eight hours without having any thing to eat but raw corn. The enemy was defeat- ed, and the city of Monterey would have been in our hands after a while, if Gen. Taylor had deter- mined upon pushing the advantages had he gain- ed; but before itcould have been taken, a great loss of life must necessarily have taken place. His army had already severely suffered from the fire of the enemy, and by taking the town would have suffered considerably more, and no doubt thrown into his hands a large number of pri soners, whose subsistence h» could not provide for. Thus situ- ated, offers of capitulation were tendered by the Mexican general, which, with some modifica- tions, were accepted. These offers gave to Gen. ‘Taylor all the advantages he could have acquired by fighting, and such as would place him in a po- sition to relieve the troops under his command by | the supplies which, by the terms of capitulation, | were to be turned over to a beard of American | officers appointed to receive them. Annexed are the items :— Taf Metis Leon agreed upon by Ihe undersigned Cogn | mioners,to wit : General Worth, of the United Siates Army, General Henderson, of the Texan Volunteers, Colonel Davis of the Mississippi Riflemen. on the rt of Major General Taylor, commanding-in-chief the Tnited States forces,and General Raguena and Gen, Ortega, of the Army of Mexico,and Senor Manuel M. | lana.

Apart trom considerations of prudence, which are elear to every military man, there is nothing in {these terms that not compatible with magnanimity towards 2 foe who had fought well, and who had contested every inch of the ground they were finally compelled to yield to superior bravery and discipline. We are pleased to find « parallel case to this capitulation in the annals of English and French warfare, when Napoleon and the Doke of Wel ington were in the field. On loo’ting over Napier’s history of the Penin- sular war, we see a case that bears'a striking simi- larity to this—in the celebrated ‘Convention of Cintra.” It occurred at the battle ot Vimiero, when the French troops under Junot were de- feated with the loss of three thousand men, and the capture of one general, thirteen guns and several hundred prisoners, by the British under Sur Hew Dalrymple. After achieving this decisive victory, Sir Hew Dalrymple decided upon push- ing it further, Thus Napier says :— is “This mow _ Aved hae a by Sir Arthur,who ovisions on shore would not supply | oa Sight oF nine lays’ consumption for the troops | to farnish any assistance, wad thar nd fost cou Sar calculated upon as a r the first of the Sees oa: son > waxes would certainly . id it portion of it. Sir Hew thought the eviln hoving thet separated, would be greater than the cfonti"h ‘om auch events.

While wei te of affairs, he was informed that General escorted by a strong boty of comely , was at the outposts, and demanded an i w. For Junot, af ter regaining Torres Ves had occupied Mafra, and was pre} to fight gain, when he received intelli- gence thet Lisbon was'on the point of insurrection ; wherefore, sending forward a false account of the action, he followed it up with a re-inforcement for the garrison, and called a council of war to advise measures with re- spect to the English. That general conducted to the quarters of the commander-in-chief, demanded a ces- sation of arms, and proposed the indwork of acon- vention under which Junot offe: to evacuate Portugal without further resistance. Nothing could be more oppor- tune than this proposition, and Sir Hew Dalrymple read: aly accepted oF it, as an advantage which wi accrue, without eny drawback to the general cause of the Peninsw- ta. He knew, from a plan ‘of operations sketched by the of the French engineers, Colonel Vincent, and ta- by the Portuguese, that Junot possessed several ng positions infront of Lisbon ; and that a retreat either upon Almeida, or across the river upon Elvas, was not only within the conte but considered in this report as perfectly easy of execution. Henc: vention was an unex} ment of difficulty, a was the nature of th ab for the t Sir Hew being necessarily igno- rant of man: , had recourse to Sir A. Wellesley for information, and the latter, teking an enlarged view ofthe question in all its bearings, coincided as to the sound policy of Le goon to a convention, py which a strong French army would be quietly got out of a coun- try that ithad complete military possession of ; and by which, not only a great moral effect in favor of the gen- eral cause would be produced, but an actual gain made, both of men and time, for the further prosecution of the war in Spain. The of a definitive treaty was th ject to the final approbation of Sir Charl out whose concurrence it was not to be binding. Articles 1st and 2d declared the fact of the armistice, and provided for the mode of future proceedings. Article 3d indicated the river Sisandre as the line of de- marcation betwe: ‘mies. The position of Tor. res Vedras to be occupied by neither. Article 4th. Sir Hew Dalrymple gaged to have the Portuguese included in the armistice, and their boundary line was to extend from Leiria to Thomar. Article 5th declared, that the French were not to be considered as prisoners of war, and that themselves and their Property public and private, were, without an: detainer, to be transported to France. To this article Sir Arthur objected, as affording a cover for the abstrac- tion of Portuguese property; whereupon Kellerman said, that it was to be taken in its fair sense of property justly obtained, and upon this assurance it was sdmitted, * . * * * * Article 8th provided, that all guns of French calibre, and the horses of the cavalry, were to be transported to ‘rance Here we have a casealmost precisely parallel to General Taylor’s, and we see that he adopted almost precisely the same means as were adopt- ed by Sir Arthur Wellesley, now the Duke of Wellington, under similar circumstances ; and it will be seen that almost every consideration that influenced him to accept the terms of a cessa- tion of hostilities, prevailed, and no doubt were perceived by General Taylor, and influenced him in coming to the conclusion he did. In both cases aline of demarkation was drawn—in both cases the victors apprehended scarcity of provisions— | in both cases further victories could not be acquired without great loss. There are points of difference, | however, which clearly show that the terms of capitulation in General Taylor’s case, were far more favorable to us than were the terms of the armistice that the Duke of Wellington agreed to. By that the French were not to be declared pri- soners of war, and themselves and all their property, public and private, were to be transported to France by the British. We think that all this shows that General Tay- lor is still * Old Rough and Ready,” and one of the greatest Generals of the age. MaiL ARRANGENENTS.—We were the first to call the attention of the public to the difficulties then existing, and likely to increase, between Cave Johnson and the Railroad Companies, and | that, too, to the great inconvenience of the pub- lic. Weunderstand the whole subject thorougk- ly, and will endeavor, to condenso it in a nut shell. The main difficulty lies in the occasional non- connexion of the New York to Philadelphia line with the Philadelphia to Baltimore line, by which the whole Southern and Western mails are thrown into disorder. The mail leaves New York at5 P.M. and arrives at Philadelphia variously from before | 10 P.M. te after 11P.M. By order of the De- partment, the Philadelphia and Baltimore line must leave Philadelphia at 10 P.M. Therefore, | ifthe Northern mail fails to arrive before 10 P. M., there is, of course, no connexion, and Baltimore and Washington do not get their mail \n time. Now Mr. Johnson requires the Railroad Com- panies to deliver the mail in Philadelphia before orby 10P.M. The companies do not comply. Why? 1, Because they are under no contract to do it. Their last contract has expired, and by decision of the Depart- ment they are holding over under an old contract,wh ich allows them till 11 46 P. M. to arrive in Philadelphia. 2. They cannot leave New York earlier than at pre- | per hy account of the inconvenience every way to New ‘ork. 3. They cannot travel faster than they now do, because | Mht at this house, when she will appear in Hamlet, a it is night after leaving New Brunswick—their cl} require them to run at four miles per hour the New Jersey boroughs—they have several s— and 21 mile: of night river navigation, with the rive full of vessels, &c. In short, they will not,and cannot, on account of the danger, run ir 4. And lastly, they reply, as we think conclusively, that the mail jies still en hour and half at Baltimore be- fore les ing for Aeshington, ‘and that Mr. Johnson would save allt ind obviate all difficulties, by re- quiring the Balt line to start from Philade! pre- cisely that hour a half later, by which arrangement it would lie still mo where, and he would alwaysiret his Northern mait in time. We have only to repeat what we published be- | fore, that the railroad companies have several times made Mr. Johneon the offer to allow him their roads to run cars, and carry his own mail, atany hours and at any speed he likes. He is teo wise to accept the offer, because he cannot do it so cheap as he can hire them to do it. Cave, Cave—you must manage better—you must. Musical. Camiuxo Sivoni.—The great maestro must have been highly pleased with the flattering reception he met with on Monday evening last, and more so with the favorite and complimentary notices he received from th’ whole press, with one solitary exception, the next morning.— These complimentary notices were only his due, for no person can deny that this great man is the most accom. plished violinist the world has seen since the days of Pa- ganini. We see that his second concert will take place on Friday evening next, the 16th inst., at the Taberna- cle. He will then perform the first part of a grand fan | tastic concerto in B. Minor, the celebrated rondo “I! Campanello,” (the hend bell,) and the favorite varia. tions on the air ‘Nel Cer,” (violin sole,) all composed by Paganini. He will be assisted by Miss Moss, Mr. P- Mayer, and Signor Rapetti, with his splendid orchestra’ Tue Taseanacie.—Haydn,s grand oratorio of the “ Seasons” will be performed this evening at the Taber- nacle, under the direction of Mr. George Loder, with several eminent vocalists in the solo parts, together with a select and powerful chorus. Miss Northall, Mr. Robert Andrews, Mr. Comes, and other well singers, are engaged. Mr. Timm will preside at the organ.
